    Harris has some big decisions to make!

    The Harris bounce is definitely waning, 1 point from 9 has put us back in the relegation mix. A war of attrition has begun, can we grind out the results to keep us up (I still think we will need 50 points to stay up) I think NH has some big decisions to make with the last 6 games of the season...

    What should the club do in the summer?

    I know I'm counting my chickens here, but as we have no game for nearly 2 weeks I thought I would ask the question. Harris keeps us up, what does the club do in the summer? I think we have 3 options: 1, Keep Harris as manager, give him a few quid to freshen up the squad and see how we get on...

    Possible solution to the Edwards issue.

    Could this work?: Make Edwards head of development, he is in charge of the youth academy from top to bottom. Get someone like Alex Neil in straight away, with one eye on Edwards for the future, he would still be part of the club in a high up position.

    Edwards conversation with Barrett.....

    ....after taking over in November: JE: Hi AB, what have we got to work with? AB: Hi boss, welcome to the club, we have an ageing back line that have been great service to the club and barely a striker worthy of the name. JE: OK, what formation do you play? AB: Well, GR always wanted to play 5...

    Play Cooper up front!

    I'm only half joking, having 1 little bloke running around a lot ain't ever gonna work! With some truly shocking squad management we've managed to go into the last half of the season with barely a striker worthy of the name at the club!! These players are never gonna be able to play the slick...

    The rest of this season...

    ...needs to be about staying up and nothing else, relegation would be a fucking disaster! This is just my opinion: 1,Shark is bang average, I think we've been sold a pup, Wolves must be laughing their bollocks off 1.2 million!! Bart is still the best keeper at the club, put him back in for the...

    5 things that JE must have learnt by now!

    1, Honeyman ain't a winger 2, 1 up front does not work! 3, Replacing Nesbit with Bradshaw or vice versa makes zero difference! 4, Flemming is dogshit, and should be dropped. 5, Mitchell is L1 at best.

    Rule changes that have improved the game.

    With the muppets in charge of football looking at introducing Sin Bins and Orange cards, the game is changing beyond all recognition. Which if any of the changes have improved things? I can only think of 2: 1, Banning the back pass to the GK. 2, Goal line technology.

    January will be vital.

    Does anyone know what the situation is with our loans? Everyone can see Campbell and Longman offer us nothing, can we send them back in January? JE has already said there won't be a lot happening in January, but we desperately need a player like their blond bloke and a proper striker for Nesbit...

    Ipswich v Norwich n/w

    Noticed already the way that midfield players on both sides when they receive the ball from the defence they are already half on the turn, giving them that extra half a yard of space to be able to drive forwards. We always seem to be very 'flat' in midfield, which means we only have one option...

    Your thoughts on the rest of this season.

    After a very turbulent few months: 1, Completely falling apart against Blackburn. 2, Losing JB. 3, GR leaving after a less than successful start to the season. 4, The Championship being a lot stronger this season than last. I think JE has some very important decisions to make in the next few...

    Team v Sunderland

    With the players we have available, I think we need to play 5 at the back !!! Bart BNC-Leonard-Harding-Cooper-Malaki Billy-De Norre Esse Emakhu-Nesbit

    JE not happy!!

    Just seen his interview, said the word "Basics" 6 times!!! Not happy with the body language or aptitude!!! Maybe some of the old guard will be out the door in January!!!

    What does the new manager need to do first?

    I'd say sort the home form and mind set, no wonder a lot of people wanted a change from GR, 4 years of trying to nick a 1 nil win against bang average sides!! Get us attacking at The Den will get the fans on board early doors!! Having watched most of our games from afar over the last 4 years a...

    Why HASN'T GR got a attacking coach in..

    ...we've been talking about the lack of attacking ideas throughout the club for ages, what is the reason why he has filled the club with defensive coaches? Has anyone actually asked him, either in a press conference or through the club??

    Wake up call for us today!

    I'm not sure what game some where watching but the ferret fiddlers won EASILY! Apart from the first 15 minutes we were never in it, 2 routine saves from their keeper( who I thought looked shaky all game) and that was it! Hindsight is great but not sure why Harding wasn't starting (He looked...
