Never believe rumours about injuries until the club announces it and even then id take sone of the timescales with a pinch of salt! 😂

With talk of 30 man squads if he finds another club it’s probably nailed on he would be selected.

I think Idah will start, even if Vipotnik is fit after his goal on the weekend. Agree with the rest though and think it’s pretty likely we’ll see it too.

As others have suggested, definitely start with short highlight videos. It’s a pity the hour highlights programme isn’t on BBC/ITV any more as that was targeted at ‘newbies’ as well as regulars. I watched a lot on Channel 4 in the late 80s/early 90s but then lost interest (didn’t have time) for...

Will be interesting to see how it pans out. Big ask to get them to the playoffs, which I assume would still be the new managers target, but I do think they’ll end up closer to the top 6 than the bottom 3.

Plenty of tight 1st halves this evening! Should be a good hour or so on Redzone this evening!

I think it’s generally a good thing that we’ve moved on from ‘you have to have played the game at the top level to be a manager’ but what seems to be lost on owners/CEOs is that man management is still such an important part. They used to get star struck by people’s playing careers, now...

Was just reading this! Didn’t age well 😂 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cwy113we86xo

As an economist layman this makes far too much sense.

I can’t remember the time frame (old age), but whilst I’d love us to have signed O’Brien would it have meant we’d have neither Galbraith or Stamenic? EDIT: Quick google search suggests Galbraith signed first so maybe it was Stamenic & Yalcouye (loan) vs O’Brien (appreciate this is a very...

I'm all for the 'league table doesn't lie' but whilst you get an idea of where you're at after 10+ games it tends not to settle down until the halfway point (at least). Currently there are two points between 9th and 17th and making a knee jerk reaction (sacking/changing manager) based on not...

I'd agree with this. Clearly a run like last year post Christmas would change things, but unless someone can suggest a manager who's going to immediately get this team to gel and increase the points per game then I see little benefit in getting rid of Sheehan now (or at any point in the next few...

Chat GPT (well the free version) seems pretty rubbish if looking for football stats. Lots of errors every time I’ve asked a pretty basic question.

I’m not sure he’s ever going to start all 3 games when we have league games Sat, Tue/Wed, Sat but in principle I agree and would be very disappointed if he’s not in the XI against Preston & Ipswich. Similar with Inoussa - he needs to be starting 2 out of 3 in weeks like this.

I’m not suggesting he’s the next Ashley Williams but I think I’ve seen enough to think he’ll be a solid upper mid-table centre half at this level. He’s also clearly got leadership qualities which we’ve been lacking. Loans have been strange for years (since Cooper). We seem to be shopping in...

Galbraith & Burgess - 100% I think Stamenic will be a regular starter and good player at this level over the next few years. Probably hedge my bets on which of the others - if pushed I think we’ll end up making a decent profit on one of Widell or Inoussa.

Agree with all of that, apart from the last part. From the outside at least, the plan/process in the window looks much more coherent than previous years. We no longer have obvious gaps in the squad (in terms of numbers/depth) or have senior players in the squad that are clearly redundant and...

Seems to suggest we won’t see Vipotnik in the next two games. Opportunity for Idah to build on the goal today.

I’d say that’s partly the nature of the Championship for the majority of teams. There’s a few teams that go on really good runs and then really bad ones (Preston & Millwall spring to mind) and those that make the playoffs will have a good few ‘3-game-weeks’ where they pick up 7/9 points...

Great reverse jinxing 😂
