Comment | Charlton Boss on Omitting Town Loanees
at 04:13:18
If not playing loanees is treating them "badly" and "should not be excused" then I guess Kieran is a terrible inexcusable manager for not playing Scarlett which led to him being recalled. Or maybe it's that the manager has to do what's best for his team, even if the loanees and parent clubs don't like it. |

If we were safe from relegation but struggling in L1 we'd have the same attitude, so I can't blame N Jones. Not great our players are caught in the middle of it, but that's the risk of loaning players out. Neither are in our plans, so it really doesn't matter other than perhaps costing us a few quid on a Ladapo transfer. |

Comment | Hladky: Contract is Not Yet Signed But I Want to Stay Here

Great with the ball at his feet, below average shot stopper and poor footwork. I fear it won't be pretty in the premier league. I know some will want to keep most the squad together, but this an area we need an upgrade - a sweeper keeper who can play our style (Nick Pope, perhaps :) ).
I don't see a place for Walton as he doesn't suit the style. |

The plan clearly wasn't to release him in the summer if we turned down bids of six figures in January - we were just holding out for more money. The knee injury may have dented our plans. |

I hope so. Our famed record of developing players has become tarnished recently, with very few successfully produced. People may point to LW, but he is now 25 years old. Cam is the only youngster in the squad, and hasn't cracked the lineup. |

Bradley is different though - moved across at 16 and spent his childhood at the Liverpool training centre in NI. So in fairness they basically developed him, instead of simply signing him. |

Comment | McKenna: Big Player Ladapo Goes With Our Best Wishes
at 07:58:22
Rotherham offloaded him. Listen to the excellent BBC podcast featuring Paul Warne and he/his agent are mentioned several times. He got benched, sulked about not starting and was left entirely off the team sheet. His attitude seems to have been much better with us, credit to him. But let's not rewrite history. |

Comment | Assistant Academy Manager Williams Departs
at 07:52:28
Read between the lines guys, he was fired. Not many people leave their jobs without another job to go to - and despite being a former footballer doubt he's got enough cash to live comfortably on for life. It's not a sign of anything at PR, sometimes things just don't work out. It was maybe a step too far for him, or his philosophy didn't match the clubs. He's being very gracious about it, which bodes well for him getting another job. |

Comment | Schumacher: Red Card a Little Bit Unnecessary
at 09:41:45
Why can't we just admit that it was a soft second yellow - we would be fuming if it happened to one of our players!
Sure, that's the letter of the law but we can all point to 5 or 10 instances of players asking for bookings every match. I wish refs did book each time, as it would stop it. Same with players responding with 'f1ck off' to every foul. |

Comment | Agent: Hladky Priorities Agreeing Town Contract Extension and Promotion
at 10:37:25
@Nutkins_Return said it best - great with ball at his feet but below average Championship keeper as a shot stopper and on crosses. I'm sorry to say that if we get to the Premier League he will be massively exposed.
I wouldn't be held ransom, there's better keepers who are also good with their feet. If we're heading to the Premier League we should be able to afford a £6m fee like Leicester paid for 23 year old international Mads Hermansen. |

It's a good decision. Mass struggles with injuries, and he's also playing for a new contract. That could have been derailed with an injury on international duty followed by a long spell on the bench. |

Comment | Robins: They're a Good Side and Up There For a Reason
at 02:15:05
Refreshing to see honest, straight forward and complimentary comments from a losing manager. Robins is a good one.
Most interesting is that he made it clear that teams now fear us, and become timid. That's fantastic! |

Comment | Former Blues Boss Hurst Sacked By Grimsby
at 14:10:40
Heresy to mention MM with the other 5 managers...
Hurst sold off Championship level players and replaced them with players from L1. He built a L1 team, and that's where we ended up. |
