But it doesn't necessarily have to be a cross. We could play it short, or out to a player on the edge of the area. Keep the opposition guessing; we just don't have that variety or element of surprise about us. |

I really feel we have suffered with not having a dedicated set-piece coach. With us creating so little in open play, we simply have to be more of a threat from set-pieces. We had a number of corners in the second-half, but never looked like scoring from any of them. There is very little imagination in our corners. You look at some of the goals Boscombe have scored from set-pieces, and they are clever, you can tell they properly practise them. Marginal gains and all that nonsense has rarely seemed so apt. |

The ref was indeed horrendous. As they all seem to be in this League. I particularly approved of the "coont with a whistle" song. Hope that came across on the TV. |

Bit of a water issue in the City, by all accounts……. |

We’re doomed. No mention of Moyes or Cooper, by far the best two options. |

Jones was Ankersen’s choice. Selles was Semmens’ choice. Martin was Wilcox’s choice. I just hope it isn’t bloody Parsons’ turn to have the choice. He has ruined everything else he has touched. |

Where are we at with these? I think we should demand the publication of the pledges. I know I can count on the support of FranniesTache on this key initiative. [Post edited 17 Dec 23:41]

It is all about reference points, as Ankersen so proudly advised, when describing what drew them to the magnificent appointment of Nathan Jones. |

Of course, when our away fans had such a hellish journey to and from that game, where the oppo keeper didn’t have a single save to make, who wouldn’t begrudge our brave warriors some richly deserved liquid refreshment? |

It was remiss of me to overlook that Corberan could hardly have been expected to get the better of Saints, when we had Super Sekou running riot like prime Drogba in both the games at The Hawthorns. |

He's done pretty well everywhere he has been despite having no money to spend. He achieved miracles at Huddersfield in almost getting them promoted. You're right about the results against West Brom, though I thought we were lucky to beat them at home in the League, and we could easily have lost at their place in the play-offs. |

I have always rated Steve Cooper. Thought it was utter madness for Leicester to sack him, but he seemed to be tainted by his connections to Forest. He’s an excellent manager. He also fell out with Vestergaard at Leicester, so he gets a double thumbs-up from me. |

It’s quite surprising how young he is given how long he seems to have been around in the game. He’s only 35. Makes me feel rather old….. |

The moment I saw him suited up at the play-off final was when I feared this day would come. Not as if he is ever fit enough to play. Cheap option, no compo to pay. Ticks a lot of boxes for the brainless board. Sigh. |
