    There would be an immediate increase in crowds if Nigel appeared, but would he commute from Hampshire.

    If he would come just till end of the season it would be good.

    Cox isn’t going anywhere YET, PS said in his interviews last week he would give it another five games then see where we were.
    Well two games have gone and I expect after the next three we will be well adrift with another minus 10 added to the goal difference, and be almost a lost cause.

    Let’s hope he doesn’t read this board when he’s deciding where to go!

    I remember on the old board someone puta Gif of Mr Wharton pole dancing and another of him driving a car with Adkins and Crozzer in bouncing around, I think it was just after promotion to the championship.
    I expect Wharton was not happy.

    There was also a video posted by y Griffiny which was a compilation of Hooper goals, I still look at it from time to time, I think some of our current crop of strikers should watch it for inspiration.

    Set up as two banks of five to minimise risk of conceding. Best chance of scoring will be to get in Bradford penalty area with the ball and fall over in the hope of getting a penalty.

    So SanFran, your suggesting the chief scout wants to resign a player Cox doesn’t consider good enough. IF this is true it could explain how we finished up with some of the current dross but doesn’t bode well for the future.

    The players and the manager will be at the ground training on Thursday Friday come out between 10,30 and 11 if anyone wants to have words with Cox Lillis and the players.

    Making an invitation like that you must be a club official.

    The man’s a rambling buffon.
    According to Einstein definition he’s also insane, continuing to do the same and expecting a different outcome.

    No one should take a double decker bus with no brakes and a dodgy clutch down a steep hill and that’s the problem, not only is the driver not suitable the equipment is broken as well.

    RIP Charlie.

    I know things have changed a bit and players have become more fragile, but I don’t remember injury problems been as bad when you used the magic sponge.

    Shouldn’t have changed the side for the Colchester/Southend games, we would probably have bagged six points, ok there might have been injuries but we have injuries now and no points. You should play your strongest side and deal with the consequences later.
    Cox has tried to utilise his squad interacting his not so good players into the team and got nothing from the last two games, it’s ok saying we played decent and nearly this nearly that but the bottom line is we go zero points and won’t get many from the next three games. I really can’t understand his strategy, anyway it his decision and it will be him who will be ultimately judged by the results.

    The comment keeps getting made on this board, but the number of injuries and players unavailable at this club is absolutely incredible. The players are a set of light weights they are so fragile, it never used to be like this, I think there is far too much science and thought involved nowadays.

    Going by my mathematical progression 4,5….., I predict needing the fingers on two hands to keep tally.

    A 6-0 tonking I’m afraid, unless a new GK appears at the eleventh hour.

    If there is a fitness doubts new players need to be on a pay/play contract then there is an incentive not to be a permacrock.

    Just listened to swan on hullberside,the other swann put him through the ringer a little have a listen

    This is worth a listen if you want a giggle, Hullbersides Swan clearly reads this board and is aware of what is going on and has a good go at baiting the prawn, very amusing.(sportstalk on 16th about 20mins in).

    Cox 3 starting to feel sorry for him, but needs to start playing his best players

    Cox commented on Hullberside interview he had selected the best available players.

    It seems once again too many key players are on the treatment table, again, the club must have one of the worst injury records ever.

    You also have to ask what all our coaches/ specialists actually do because it’s not working – goalkeeping coach judging by our GK the coach is just not been effective.

    Unfortunately even this early in the season I’m afraid Scunnymatt is right and we are heading for the national league and beyond, the club is literally in free fall.
    It’s like we’re back in the bad old days of the 70’s.

    Money and greed is the root of all that is wrong with football and it is us the punters that suffer.
    It’s taking the p*ss premiership clubs taking furlough, it’s just out and out greed, that’s why they want B teams.

    Will probably announce that Cygnet has been away doing his badges and will be taking over in the dugout.
