We had both the McJannets! The other one we sold in a weird move to a team in Italy where I think he still is. He’s a forward/winger. Pettit seems to have had a good season at Maidenhead. I liked him, also came across as a bit of a leader which is unusual for a young player in and around what...

Pettit was a a deep lying playmaker type, sit deep and spray the ball around if i recall. Looked decent in pre season friendlies that I saw but always felt those sort of low intensity, lots of time on the ball type games suited his style. Wasn’t the most athletic I’d say, played a bit of centre...

There will certainly be a few of his favourites available I think - Cornick, Campbell, perhaps James Collins depending on what Derby want to do with him, Kal Naismith perhaps too.

I’m really interested to see who Jones brings in for you. I imagine a few ex players of ours will be showing up. I’m a massive Berry fan, always liable to pop up with a goal and he works bloody hard. Problem is he’s kind of morphed into a pure sub/role player for about 3 seasons now though and...

Putting here as this is where we will likely be, being linked with Ben Sheaf from Coventry, regardless of if we get relegated or not. Seems unbelievably fanciful to me, top player and would have thought if he were to leave Coventry it would be to a team of a much higher level rather than at best...

Shows what a mad and great league the championship is with all the bottom sides, Huddersfield excepted, winning on the final Day. Doesn’t seem to be a thread for it but what an amazing season for Ipswich. The parachute clubs have such a massive advantage and they’ve made a mockery of it through...

That and the injuries. I know it’s an oft used excuse especially by us this season but Adebayo made a massive difference last night and Lokonga looked wjth a game under his belt a lot less rusty. If we had had those 2 for a consistent period (they only played 8 times together including last...

The last week really underlining that I’m entirely not fussed about relegation, all feels decidedly distasteful to be rubbing shoulders with some of these clubs to be quite honest. Absolutely totally and utterly shameless and classless from Forest this week essentially tantamount to pressuring...

Really poor today. Went into it with a bit of a jump in our step with the surprise of a few players being back but we were never in the game. Brentford were excellent and we had probably our worst game of the season. In retrospect we’ve never been able to transition those plucky performances...

Massive game tomorrow, win and it really looks on. Somehow only Mengi might be back for the game, some of these injuries must have been absolutely horrendous - cant believe how long some of them have been out for. Feels like we saw pictures of Lokonga training a month ago but still doesnt seem...

How much have City spent on defenders? 1 billion or something ridiculous I think and we still scored one with 14 players unavailable. Embarrassing that imo :woo: Half empty stadium by the end, hollowed out husk of a league ruined by money. Still had a great time supporting the underdog hatters...

Yep it’s pretty egregious, really lost a bit of interest in the season as a result to be quite honest which is a shame as I’ve enjoyed it for the most part. Whole thing has been handled terribly, I’ll be quite ok with going down to be honest, the league and the supporters of teams within it...

A great character and a true “football man”. Be remembered unfortunately today for his latter roles at Newcastle where I think he was beginning to show some signs of the dementia he battled for many years at the end. Did a great job at Wimbledon and remember being very surprised a former...

We are going to the Luton thing of failing in the most heart breaking way possible aren’t we by going down at the last possible moment. But fuck it, what a group of players, really embody never say die attitude. Great win today, Berry and Onyedinma coming on and changing the game typifies what...

Usual story of a spirited performance but one that’s in defeat, never looked like troubling them but at sever under strength we held our own, especially second half. It’s sounds so sentimental, but you can’t be anything but proud of what we’ve done this year Deserve a bit of luck I feel but...
