Bottom. Why? I made no comment on Cooper. I was merely saying how well Lampard has done this season.

Getting Coventry into playoff contention is impressive given where they were when he took charge. Coventry were 17th in the Championship, 10 points from the play-off spots and only two points above the relegation zone. They are now only 1 point from the playoffs, with a game in hand... vs Pompey tonight.

If we are basing it on that, then so does Russell Martin and it is a squad he built for his style of play! 😬 They should however be looking for more than that in a new manager. Being capable of doing something in the Premier League once we are back I think is a key one.

I did not say or comment on if it wasn't true or not. I outlined why it doesn't make sense. Not the same thing!

That is not true. Shea Charles and Joe Aribo are both taller than 6ft. Both shrug off Championship players with ease.

That makes little sense, as the longer you stay in the Championship the harder it is to come up again as revenue decreases significantly each season you stay down. Had we not gone up, we'd be in the Championship with a lower income and would have sold some of the best players.

Only one of the three he listed has been in the Championship this season, not two. That has only been si ce January and he I'd also being played out of his best role. The three players listed were Armstrong, Archer and Onuachu. Thd former two have both been prolific in the Championship. I think Onuachu would as well. Why would struggling in the PL impact their ability to perform in a lower league? Armstrong isn't getting the goals for WBA because he isn't being played in the role we used him in to be prolific last season.

Have you considered that might be because... Ballard is nearly a year older than Dibling? Dibling into adulthood has significantly overtaken him.

Where have you got that from?

You left a gap in central midfirld, but missed out Shea Charles, who is doing very well this season in the Championship and also captaining his country at a very young age. He might go straight into the starting XI. I'd be very surprised if we still had Dibling and Ramsdale. I think Bazunu will be our keeper for the season. Welington might be more useful than Taylor and Manning. Plus we also have Juan, Matsuki and Traore and others back from their loans.

Two of the strikers he listed have been prolific in the Championship, the third likely would be aswell.

The £100m was spent very poorly. He also could have raised more to spend if he asked for a clearout of existing players who weren't good enough for the Premier League rather than being loyal to them.

Have you considered Russell Martin played a key role in assembling the squad for this season? He wanted to stay loyal to those players that won promotion, even though they weren't good enough. We needed a complete overhaul in the summer of 2024 and didn't get one. Martin can't blame the tools when he help pick which ones he wanted this season. Juric was a tactical disaster, but he was hamstrung by the squad Martin left him!

It isn't Sport Republic's track record you should look at. Johannes Spors is making the pick.

Triplets with Ian Dowie?

Speech recognition system integration in computer games isn't an idea I made up. It exists in other games! So given that... talk through why you think it is a bad idea?

A marketing stunt is not a job or a continuation of a playing career. It is a one-off stunt, paid by a third party. Pete fail

Not by the club, so wasn't employed by the club as a footballer. It was a marketing stunt, not a continuation of a career at a much lower level. Pete fail

They don't pay wages, Havant & Waterlooville do!

If you continue to do the job then you haven't retired even if it is at a lower level. Especially when still being paid! Another Chuckle fail!

All three continued playing after leaving Saints. Their time at Saints didn't end in retirement.

It won't only be player sales, we have a massive financial advantage over 21 of the other clubs in terms of year 1 parachute payments allowing for a bigger wage budget. Plus bigger commercial and matchday income than the majority of the other clubs.

He'll be on a lot more than £20k p/w

The squad was assembled to play MartinBall, that was relatively fine in the Championship but they didn't have the quality needed for it to work in the Premier League. So it isn't a surprise a squad that was assembled to play in a possession system, also wasn't good enough to play a style they were not assembled for!

He is a director of the parent company. Turning up to a game doesn't mean he is doing Spors' job.
