Ex Lion Tamer

I reckon a two point deduction in the Premier League or a six point deduction in the Championship might just about be fair. Anything more is disproportionate to the offence committed

Way too much at stake for any owner not to appeal

We must pray that Larin and Peretz stay fit

Think the Wrexham fans were saying this on their forum

There should surely be a rule that football club accounts have to be drawn up on a year end 31 August basis to cover the summer transfer window

In case anyone is in any doubt, there is no way Stewart should or will start this one. Unless we want him to get injured again

He doesn't really need to be high scoring if his presence in the team enables the others

A lot will depend on his wage demands. There's a certain amount that we can justifiably pay him to be a squad player but will he accept that and will someone come in with silly money?

We do have to leave open the possibility that Martin was trying to protect his goalkeeper's confidence. Are people so credulous they think managers tell the truth all the time?

Not sure either of those players were available in the summer. We had the worst squad in the Premier League by a margin and perhaps it wasn't realistic to turn it round in one window. But under Spors we've gradually been sorting ourselves out

Fabrice Fernandes was a good player whose ball retention was an asset

David Connolly could have been the best footballer at the club, if he wasn't always in the treatment room.

Our previous two managers didn't rate him and it was bizarre that whole time

Can only speculate but I do wonder if it was club policy to play a back five and it took that long for them to relent

I think the squad argument only really works since Peretz came in (and to a degree Larin as well). Before that we were playing with a hopeless GK, so didn't really have anywhere near the best team in the division. Form since Peretz = job done well:
