I don´t think anybody is justifying what Mboyo did it was clearly unacceptable regardless of age or his background. That though should not mean that we should not sign him. He made the biggest mistake of his life at 16 possibly even younger. 16 year olds make mistakes admittedly not usually as...

We had a number of young players whose contracts ran out at the end of last season. We have heard who of the more senior players have been released but what about the younger ones. I believe that East, Peet, Oxley, Mainwaring, Emerton, Bradley and Hoolohan were all coming to the end of their...

Lincoln Tiger Brown can say what he wants providing it is true without receiving a writ for slander.

We need at least one more striker I cannot see Simpson returning it would be better for all parties if he went to Millwall in January. In midfield if Brady stays then with the return of Olofinjana and Garcia in the next couple of weeks we have enough cover. If Brady goes back then perhaps...

The Allams didn´t exactly make it easy for Leicester to sign Judas and I doubt they would make it easy for any of the players to leave. In any event why would they want to go. They are all young and will have ambitions to get into the Premiership with that in mind how does that involve...

Myhill was a fantastic keeper for us and had many great games. The obvious one was Spurs away but our most famous victory in the Premiership was Arsenal away. While a lot of the focus went to the goalscorers Bo made a couple of great saves without which we would not have won. I always thought...

I am sure that he will be eased in gently we still have 75% of the season still to play so he has plenty of time to make an impact. Unless we play with a midfield of five I don´t like two wingers hogging the touchline Koren may get more space but what is more likely is that the opposition will...

Cameron Stewart was most effective for us when he played off the striker (Simpson) when fit I would like to see him resume that role so perhaps I may not have to get used to playing two wingers. While I look forward to seeing Stewart back I think we are at least a month away before he starts a...

I would stick with Cairney even if Pusic is fit. Cairney played well on Saturday and was involved in two of our goals, he retained possession and linked well particularly with Koren. He may not have stuck to the touchline but that was possibly how the manager expected him to play. In any event I...

Those of you who watch the Reserve matches how far is Emerton off the first team? I ask because all the reports I read tells me that he has played well he has also scored a few goals. On Saturday we were lacking Stewart, Barmby, Waghorn and Pusic which left us short of attacking players as a...

Although we played poorly in the first half we did try to play football and pass our way around Watford. We did create some good positions but the final ball generally was not good enough. The second half was much better and we retained possession better. The two full backs played well in...

Don´t CI normally identify the author of their match reports? Perhaps they like some of the people who posted are embarrassed by the negativity from the first line onwards.

I am firmly with those who think there was nothing wrong with the interview. I first heard it yesterday and it sounded like two old palls having a laugh at the end. One thing though I have never understood why journalists when they only have a small time for an interview ask questions that the...

Don´t Manchester United have first option on him or was that just a rumour? All the talk of his height is a red herring how many teams have two tall strikers? The reverse is often said that big men are poor on the floor and slow on the turn so we have one big defender to attack the ball and one...

It is easy to be critical of the keepers position but you would have been equally critical if the ball had cleared the defenders and left a one on one and Basso did not get the ball because he was on his line. The fact is the header was in the perfect position slightly higher and it would have...
