Reply | What are people’s thoughts on the Club pulling out all the stops in January ?
at 15:05 11 Dec 2025
No way.
We need a keeper, but could probably struggle through with the 3 we have until the summer.
I wouldn't even go for Ronnie Edwards. We have Dunner, Cook, JCS and Morrison at the club already. Why are we spending a chunk on Edwards when we can likely get him in the summer for cheaper when Cook goes.
If a right back or left back option is available and fits the model we should do it. Also desperatly need someone who can play CM or else we will run Varane and Madsen into the ground |

I've been going to QPR since 92/93 and therefore should've seen almost all these goals, but I've managed to miss so many
Jamie Cureton v Port Vale - Was a school night and think I missed their equalizer and our winner as we left on 90 mins
Paul Furlong v Leicester - Was living in Israel for the year
Paul Furlong v Luton - Had gone on holiday and missed the game
Jamie Mackie v Liverpool - Was living in NY
Dijibril Cisse v Stoke City - Still living in NY
Jimmy Dunne v Birmingham City - My sons first game and he couldn't make it to the end
Keiran Morgan - Wife had her Xmas party so I was babysitting
You sit through all the shit and miss the great moments FFS |

I wonder if Sheff may have left themselves a bit much to do.
Other than Cov none of the other Champ stalwarts have really grasped the opportunity to put distance between themselves and Ipswich who seem ominous and likely to pip Boro to 2nd.
I think Boro, Saints and Millwall will be in the PO's with a complete bum fight for that 4th spot between about 10 different sides |

Any winger/10/striker would have to be a generational talent to break in ahead of Kone, Burrell, Saito, Chair, Dembele, Poku, Vale, Smyth.
I'm surprised we haven't seen more of Morgan in CM and that Tylon Smith hasn't been on the bench yet.
However Moragn and Smith are both teenagers and there's lots of football for them to play |

Reply | FA Cup Draw Monday Evening

Perhaps a draw that isn't absolutely rubbish would ignite some passion! The last 20 years have been some seriously slim pickings
2006 - Blackburn (a)
2007 - Luton (h)
2008 - Chelsea (a)
2009 - Burnley (h)
2010 - Sheff U (a)
2011 - Blackburn (a)
2012 - MK Dons (a)
2013 - WBA (h)
2014 - Everton (a)
2015 - Sheff U (h)
2016 - Forest (a)
2017 - Blackburn (h)
2018 - MK Dons (h)
2019 - Leeds (h)
2020 - Swansea (h)
2021 - Fulham (h)
2022 - Rotherham (h)
2023 - Fleetwood (a)
2024 - Bournemouth (h)
2025 - Leicester (a)
Most fun out of that lot would've been Fulham at home... but it was Covid so the ground was closed. Chelsea away in 2008 was great tbf
A winnable home game against a decent sized Prem opponent /rival hasn't happened in 20 years. (Bournemouth don't count... I mean c'mon)
Meanwhile we've played Sheff U twice, MK Dons twice and Blackburn 3 times.
We haven't even had a 'fun' away day... perhaps last year at Leicester counts
Home to any of W. Ham, Spurs, Chelsea, Brentford
Away to someone like Borham Wood, Sutton or Slough would be brilliant |

Reply | New stadium for London
at 12:11 3 Dec 2025
I think the only London clubs that appear 'stuck' are us and Chelsea
Arsenal - New stadium in last 20 years
Spurs - New stadium
W. Ham - New stadium (although it's awful)
Fulham - Huge redevelopment
Brentford - New stadium
Chelsea - Desperate to move as they can't expand
Palace - Approved plans for redevelopment
Millwall - Stadium is about 30 years old. No idea what they have planned
Charlton - Decent sized stadium which they periodically update
QPR - Cramped, atmospheric stadium that is falling down
Wimbledon - New stadium
Orient - Getting a new stadium
Barnet - New stadium and plans afoot to move back to Barnet and build there
Bromley - Stadium renovated less than a decade ago
Still convinced the answer is to knock it down stand by stand and build a smaller, but better functioning stadium. If it seated 15k but had better facilities it would likely make more money |

The centre of midfield has been a disaster waiting to happen all season.
Varane really not reaching the levels of last season, Madsen improving but not exactly pulling up any trees.
Byond that we have Field, who is now a left back, and Morgan, who is now a right back, and an aging Hayden.
If we make it through the season without getting sucked into a battle for relegation with hose 5 as our options then we've done very very well.
It's where the money needs to be spent in this squad (and without selling anyone next summer I worry if we have the money to actually do it) |

at 09:14 18 Nov 2025
Reasons to be positive:
We have points on the board and aren't playing catch up already, which is nice after the last few seasons! There should be enough decent players (Dunne, RND, Varane, Chair, Saito, Poku, Kone, Burrell) to put together half a decent side that has a fun season before ultimately ending up 12th
Reasons to be worried:
Echo Clive's thoughts on the Nourry bots who seem intent on shouting down any criticism of the club. He's done some things well and some things badly, not sure why it's becoming this culture war. I don't think the youngsters are actually that good (Kolli, Morgan, Walsh and Esquardinha). They need to be out on loan and fast. The keeper situation is a farce, but easily fixed in Jan
What I am hopeful for:
Some fun. I'd give my left bollock for us to be 2-0 up by 50 minutes on Saturday and just be able to enjoy the afternoon! |

I do think the 'England fail whenever they play a top side' mantra a bit of a myth these days.
In Euro 2020 we beat Croatia and Germany
In Qatar we beat African champions Senegal
In Euro 2024 we beat the Netherlands
In Qualifying/Nations League games we've beaten Italy, Belgium and Spain
We've lost to Croatia, Italy, France and Spain |

He's played 35 games and scored 5 goals with 2 assists. |

Reply | Expectations for the rest of the season
at 09:29 10 Nov 2025
Expectations are mid table. We should be 10th - 16th.
We now have a lot of wingers/10's who cannot score and 2 strikers.... Issue is that Madsen and Varane behind them are patchy and their back ups are being used at full back because the recruitment was poor.
Bit of luck and we finish 10th.... bad injuries and bad luck then we will be grinding out points here and there to finish 16th.
Of course you stick a proper keeper between the posts, defence settles down, Varane and Madsen hit top form at the same time, Chair works in the 10 behind one of your decent strikers, you suddenly have a good Championship side... but that will rarely happen across a 46 game season |

This is why I'm convinced The Man They Call Coops will end up somewhere and walk to promotion. Nobody is actually any good!
That Saints team that lost on saturday had Ronnie Edwards, Harwood-Bellis, Downes, Manning, Azaz and Armstrong all starting plus Joe Aribo and Tom Fellows on the bench.
Any semi decent manager will be able to come in and start to rocket up the table when they post back to back wins against Rob Edwards Middlesbrough and Alan Sheehan's Swansea |

I'm just not sure Kolli is that good. He's not quick, he's not tricky, he's not strong... he just sort of exists in the forward positions |

Looks like Gary 'Gaz' O'Neil is going BACK to Wolves. So that takes him out the reckoning for the soon to be myriad of Championship jobs |

It's all just Championship slop at this point.
I'm not sure any manager in this league is actually any good.
Liam Manning was a good manager doing good things, now he is not. Marti did a good job at QPR, now he's a bit shit. Chris Wilder had Sheff U moments from the Prem, now he's a bit rubbish.
Does any of it actually matter? Is Frank Lampard really a good manager or do Cov just have a group of players maturing at the right time?
We are all a bit unhappy with JS post Ipswich, lets be honest does any manager in the division make any difference? Does Ryan Mason turn us into a slick passing xG machine? Doubt it.
Nathan Jones is probably the best manager in the league, but he's deeply flawed. Mousinho, Eustace, Rowett... all just fine, Championship slop managers.
Saints will be fine because they have good players and will hire a Championship Slop manager to get them up the table. Will Still will probably be a much better manager for this and end up doing a good job at Preston in a few years.
It's all just slop |

That's very annoying ahead of Wednesday.
One assumes they bring in a Carrick type manager or 'the man they call Coops' |
