  1. Hello fellow yellows. I was just wondering if anyone knew whether the current home shirt is also for next season? I''m thinking of getting my boy one for his birthday but if it''s changing for next season I''m not sure it''s worth it. Cheers. OTBC.

  2. The Isaac Newton at the top of Castle Hill is pretty good and shows all the Sky games. They do some decent grub too and Big Trev the landlord is a bit of a legend. They also do a "loyalty card" where every time you watch your chosen team and buy a drink you get a stamp, after 6 or 8 stamps (not sure) you get a free burger and chips. Pretty pleased we''re staying up, was worried it might be a long wait before I ever reached the glorious free meal.

  3. When Johnson was released last week it made me wonder whether Lambert has signed anyone who you would say was a failure?

    Although Johnson''s goalscoring record wasn''t great I still think the double he got at home to Southend in League One was crucial and he always looked ok when he played, just unfortunately for him we progressed up the leagues a bit too quickly for him. Stephen Elliot didn''t do too much from what I remember, other than a pretty important goal at Huddersfield.

    And please don''t say John Ruddy, however good or bad you think he is (even compared to Forster) he has not been a failure.

  4. Everyone seems to agree that we could do with a pacey winger at the minute and obviously missing out on Bennett was dissapointing. But with McNally saying Lambert will have the money that would have been used on Bennett available in the loam window what does everyone think of Kightly on loan? I know he was injured so was omitted from Wolves'' 25 man squad but I read that he''s fit again now and they''d like him to go out on loan to get match practice. Obviously it''s not a long term solution but I reckon it''s worth a shot, I remember how instrumental he was when Wolves got promoted.


  5. I remember watching him at Cambridge United. I know it was only League 2 but he looked like a very good keeper. he was only 18/19 at the time and his form there got him the move to Everton. Admittedly he hasnt broke through there, although he did get a few games for them a couple off seasons back when they had a keeper crisis, but he''ss been impressive during his loan spells by all accounts. I''d say Forster has the potential to be a better keeper but right know Ruddy is equally as good.

  6. He''s been released by Derby

    I know he''s the wrong side of thirty but, due to our lack of a right sided midfielder if we ever wanted to switch from the diamond to 4-4-2, i reckon he might be worth a punt on a year or twos contract.

  7. Got my tickets earlier, me and a mate are going from Nottingham. Planning on getting the train, but it looks like the only way to get back is to get a train at 9.44 to Birmingham. Might mean leaving the game earlier, which I''ve never done and dont really want to do. Just wondering whether anyone else was having similar problems or knew another way back.

    Cheers, OTBC

  8. This would be a great deal. I watched Simpson a lot when he was at Cambridge United and Cambridge City before that, he''s pretty big (6"1 i think), works his balls off, puts himself about and can finish too. Also, getting 1 million for any player when youre in League One is a great deal, very few players go for that in this league.Also, one other thing, Gill shouldnt be seen as a replacement for Clingan, he''s much more attacking and more of a box to box player. If Clingan goes we''ll still need to get in a holding midfielder, preferably a big strong, imposing one.
