    Yeah, I know what you mean. You get these talented young lads sometimes and they can't impact the game despite having skill. The thing about Barry was he was all about output, there will be young players at clubs who can probably do more tricks and flicks than Barry but don't under estimate...

    Louie Barry confirmed to be recalled by Aston Villa after the New Years Day game vs Birmingham. Superb player, one of the best I've seen play for us. Lots of young players linked, it looks like we've cemented ourselves as one of the go to places to see young players get developed. They won't...

    Wrexham fans on one hand being touchy about other fans saying they're not impressed with them when they play them yet on the other hand they revel in their ability to nick tight games that they haven't, by their own admission, deserved to win. Can't have it both ways. Wrexham are a good solid...

    Big, big wages being spent at yours mate. It's not quite Birmingham or Wrexham levels but it's up there. The results look they're following though, I think you might edge out Wycombe in the end to join Birmingham in the automatics. Wycombe are the best team I've seen this season by quite far...

    Peterborough United diving and cheating all night. The money they have spent is frightening. You can see why their owner and manager are under huge pressure. Very good win for us. 14 points with 25 games to go to get to the magic 50 mark. Huddersfield up next. Another team that have vast sums...

    We played you on a Monday night at yours last season. Our game the midweek prior was moved to the Thursday night for SKY and you couldn't play on the Sunday because of Brighton's womens or youth team playing on your pitch, so was moved to the Monday.

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Neil Harris went from League 2 with Gillingham> League 1 with Cambridge> Championship with Millwall and he barely did anything right in the process.

    We've given this same excuse but I'm fairly the reason is we do tend to like one Friday night home game a season for old times sake. We did the same last season on the Friday before Christmas against Notts County. As a home supporter who lives fairly close, I must say I do enjoy Friday night...

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Not directly League One but with enough League One reference to make it passable, in regards to the guy at Oxford getting sacked, does it show more than ever how true it is that you can be the victim of your own success? If they lost the play-off final but were hovering around the League One...

    Fair play to Bell there. Right decision.

    First half I thought we were much the better side but didn't have the lead. Second half we were poor and Stevenage were very astute at seeing out their lead which they got from a questionable penalty. An awkward team to play against, limited in many ways but hard working and you can see why they...

    Lee Bell doing a very good job at Crewe again. He lost 3 or 4 of his key men from last seasons near miss too. Still can't make head nor tail of this league this season, which is surprising as I know everything. I thought MK Dons were going to ride off into the sunset but a poor home defeat today.

    This Maynard is making a right Ian Burchnall out of himself. The thing is I still think Notts have the players to compete for top three, they should definitley make a change in my opinion.

    Draper would be a good signing for a team in League Two, always thought he looked a handful whenever I've seen him.

    Bristol Street Motors Trophy 2024/25

    Challinor at Bolton would be like having Andrea Bocelli perform a set list at a Cheeky Girls concert. His next job is in the higher reaches of the Championship or in a top European top flight. I seriously doubt the same will be said of any of the other names mentioned in this thread.

    "Extensive development plan" and a three and a half year deal. Wouldn't surprise me if mad scientist Challinor puts him in the laboratory for 6 months and then unleashes him on this division next season.

    This just screams "massive club". Icelandic Haaland signing for the development squad.
