Yep! Result is obvioulsy a bit disappointing today but I just don't care. I'm confident that we will still win a lot of games when the season starts. The key will be to string back-to-back wins together as soon as possible.

I would take that start. 1.9 points a game - great platform to push on from.

No, you are. Katalinic and I have both spotted it.

And Dickson.

I think people were talking about the lack of preseason for the manager. Clearly the players had a preseason. But they weren't being managed properly. It doesn't follow that the corrollary of that is that it would have been important to win more games last preseason. So not really a good point at all IMO.

Oh **** off you silly twonks.

Wednesday losing to S****horpe! Yorshire puddin's out!

And Celtic are losing to Lincoln. Celtic out!

Aston Villa are losing to Bohemians. O'Neil out!

Over-dramatic nonsense by the same few as ever...

Indeed.

Good point.

Might be worth forwarding that list in an email to the Football League. Steve Cotteril would do well to either: resign or shut up and get on with it otherwise he's going to make a right tit of himself a la Grant. Anyone could've told him it was a stupid job to take.

Well yeah, it would be loans and desperate freebies. With respect to Prem loans, surely there are better second division clubs than that turd basket to send your players to.

Girls in ticket office to wear tighter blouses. Drive to recruit teens for classic firm breast and pert cute nipple look. Fact.

Ya, crazy what LOLs!? And all posts entirely serious and caught hook, line and, dare I say, sinker. Gadzooks!

I'm pretty sure that will be one of the factors the FL look at on a case-by-case basis.

Only you could intepret the most impressive signing ever by a third tier club as a signal of penny pinching in another position and bad management. Top work, sir!

The quote from the FL talks about "reducing the wage bill" and signing "replacement" players on a "case-by-case" basis. In other words, if you manage to shift Ben Haim, you can sign a replacement on smaller wages. If you can sell Utaka, you can sign a replacement on smaller wages. There is nothing in there to suggest Skates are presently allowed to sign anyone.

Oh, do give this tired, unsubstantiated, paranoid, self-incriminating, rhetoric a rest.

Derby away? Sorry, boring **** alert!

Two points: One - I doubt this will happen... but... Two - those of you saying he doesn't score, blah, blah, blah... you are off your rockers if you're implying he wouldn't be an amazing asset on the pitch. If he went to a Championship club he would arguably be the best forward in the Championship. If he comes to us he will be the best forward in League One by some distance. As Thedelldays said, he would simply be a level above anything else the defenders in this league face. He would murder them.

Generally, I know naff all about most players at this level. I did spend a couple of years in Nottingham though and used to go to matches now and again so I have an opinion on Tyson which is possibly more informed than the average opinion, having watched him in the flesh several times. I am also willing to give a player extra hype if they have a good sounding name.

Speaking more sense than anyone else on Question Time, as usual.

I bet Steve Coterill would be delighted to get a spot in the UEFA competition; it would allow him to give a run out to some of the high quality fringe players they've got in their buxom squad.
