He made a point of championing his time here. I had the same thought as you, more so given Wilcox has gone

Ah right, the excuse for overt racism.

Pre match prezzer My take, the players are maybe very deflated that autos are all but gone. Russell on the defensive, but suggested that if/when he leaves the club will continue to grow. Now is the time for a reset and get this right. some of the points raised makes you think he knows his job is under real threat if we do not get promoted. Stu Armstrong and Breezy back in the squad, this is a really good thing 1 or 2 will be left out of the squad, which will be difficult we have to get a reaction after Sat The only thing I am happy about from Sat was the clean sheet, nothing else I am not happy about anything else to be honest When we were 25 unbeaten we made changes and it did not matter now, we make changes, and people question it, probably because the results are not great Now, we have to build momentum for the playoffs 7 games to prepare and be ready to be part of the starting 11 for the playoffs There is not a best team as we have simply not won enough games, it is simple The players who are desperate to be in the team are the one who play We should have beaten Boro 4 nil, no one complained about our play We just do not run enough, it is not tiredness and it is a problem if they do not want to do it The break was not all great, 1 week with the players due to internationals How we only took 1 point from Boro and Ipswich is beyond me Ipswich desperation to fight and defend each box was something else we are not doing that, we need to get back to doing that We have to convince the players to do it, that is our job I do not care what people say about styles, it is about running hard, which we must get back to The club we walked into is very different, the healing took time, the players are in a different place compared to the start of the season If we do not go up, there will be questions, no one will question us, me, jack's role in the team if we go up there will be changes over the next 4 weeks, it is about finding the best team for the playoffs The relationship between the fans and the players is great, the players really need the fans now the players are so brave, the bravest players I have worked with, but we have to match that with aggression and intensity We have 4 weeks till the end of the season, 7 with the playoffs We have to be at Wembley, I understand the frustration, but the end goal is still there if I leave after, the club will continue the journey, and the foundations are really strong now compared to the start of the season we have a massive opportunity to get this right, 3 home games to start the momentum for the playoffs we are desperate to get to the premier league I love Mark Robbins, they have grown that club. They stuck with them and it works The players believe in them, the club believes in them, they recruit well It will be a tough game, they have done a brilliant job again This will be exciting, they need to know we are feeling hurt and they should be worried facing us As a group we have been honest with the players in what has hurt us and what has been brilliant we need to show real desire to run, we had 70% of the ball, but we need to be harder in the last moments It is not quiet where it was, too many times we are taking the easy option to pass to feet instead of going behind we are fighting for the players, showing them where they can do it, it is my fault if we do not do it I have to prepare the players for the most realistic option, which is the playoffs We will have to win 7 games, simple as that The players need to want to be part of the team in the playoffs, it will be an amazing way to do it we have to be ready, and that starts playing Coventry

What is it about Palestinians that make you care so much more than the plight of god knows how many other communities/parts of the world?

Was in the playoffs the season before, and not far off the playoffs when he left. Martin is about to kind of match that record

Is screwed a naughty word these days?

Watching the United V Liverpool game. seeing Maguire spaz about the pitch, England are screwed in the summer

they are bang on form, and getting a tune out of Ellis Simms, who has been appalling prior to his arrival at Cov

3rd or 4th, do not care. We will probably mess it up and not even get to wembley anyway

The perfect picture for the situation we are in

He also highlighted how "Brave" Jack is on the ball.

https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/24236250.russell-martin-launches-passionate-defence-jack-stephens-role/ Martin is doubling down even harder on it - weirdo

But, it will be the greatest shit creek in our history

his whole being there, especially playing some demented LB/CM role, upsets the balance of the side.

What his obsession is with playing Jack Stephens is, I will never know

I reckon we are watching the beginning of the end of his time here (hopefully)

It is falling apart at the worst time. 2 points from the last 9, playing shite We need to get back to what made us tick a few months back, that does not include jack stephens, nor rothwell or Brooks

I will give credit where it is due. I have already said that Brooks has not been very good.

Well, they have, they are on the pitch and one of them set up a sitter....

I think the other 2 have actually scored & contributed, to a level much greater than Sully. Unless you think otherwise

But not the chance where they nearly lobbed the keeper from the (normal) defensive mess up?

So?

Not to be out of the automatic race with 8 games to go. But you know that
