Mellon is the one not getting much game time.

This is Dodgson’s 9th start, Costelloe has started 8 but Mellon just 2.

I have not been contacted by the club with regards to renewing my season ticket. No e-mail, text, letter or phone call. I'm wondering if it may be because of the e-mail I sent to complain about being asked to leave the stadium while watching the on pitch celebrations, at the last game of last seaso...

I think the Leicester chap did fund the club initially, then his family not so after. Now they’re up the creek which sort of illustrates the risks with being a billionaires plaything too. To be fair they were funded significantly by Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and by his family but their King Power co...

Saudi Arabia and Qatar, to add a couple more. Whoever it is that owns Bournemouth, too. And Leicester and Forest, and for that matter Andy Holt at Accrington Stanley. The blokes at Wrexham, and Salford. It's not uncommon. On the subject of Bournemouth, I saw an interview with their owner Bill Foley...

37 League goals for us in 192 appearances. (Wiki)

That's correct but the site linked below is often more accurate

He once missed a sitter at the Jimmy Mac end early in a game because of a really bad touch. My mate said to me that he was like a dog with a balloon so I used it in my match report.

Wasn't that the name of the book that was done years ago to make money. I think it was Leighton James that didn't send anything in so his page was empty .

I think it was - Fletch put it together to raise some money for the club

Shame about West. When you pay a fee for a youth player you expect it to work out a bit more.

There are a lot of people bemused by this one to be honest but usually the decisions prove to be right.

ClaretTony

I love when fans suggest offering a player a coaching role. It happened with Barnes, Heaton the other day I think, and it's happened here. What makes Rodriguez a good coach? Is he interested in being a coach? Is he qualified? The list is endless but Barnes and Cork did start their coaching badges d...

That mean he'll be leaving at the end of his scholarship?

He played against us for Hull recently too. There are a few players who seem to have gone missing. Rohan Vaughan played as a trialist for QPR last week.

I really do sympathise and am trying to be very fair with comments on this. But when I look at Forest I see their seniors will be £375-£650 with the latter being equivalent to where you sit, i.e. fairly central good seat. Whereas we will charge £242-£360. Then we have an under 22, under 18 and unde...

They were but a lot because they’d been signed from Stoke

I agree and I think it’s disgusting. I went in before the game on Saturday and there was a family of three who looked pretty destitute to be honest, in there renewing their season tickets. They were lovely with the lady serving them. Pretty hard to accept the club is raising prices to squeeze a few...

Stan and Barry looking well, that's great to see (and you of course, CT.)

Stan's really good and he told me he'd been watching football on the magic lantern.

Fletch & Waldo (before your time) in good form too.

Burnley are on that promotion piece because this TV deal isn't something that's just been anounced, it came out almost a year ago. As we all know, Burnley were leading the way in the Championship last May and that's why Sky used us at the time. Beginning of May last year when this was announced - t...

Unbelievable. I'd still be starting both if it was up to me. I'm pretty sure they'd have helped us have more points than our current pathetic tally. Jack was such a key player in the first half of last season but really has been sidelined. Just three sub appearances this season in the league after ...

Wasn't that a different incident?

I was referring to the Tarkowski challenge when he gave the pen. They said on comms that it had been given for the challenge on the right of the box.

I believe we tried to push him out on loan at the end of January, maybe Jack Cork too.

Even Dermot on ref watch said we should have had a penalty for the foul on Odobert. When he’s sticking up for us you know the refs had a shocker! He never actually said it should have been a pen. He did say that Estupiñán got lucky but then said it’s a tough call because whichever way you go, peopl...

Think that they are to the left of the standing seats.

It’s changed from two seasons ago when it was the front rows for seats. If I’d known that I’d probably have gone in the sitting section.

I don't get why everyone was saying the Tarks block was fine. I thought it was close to a straight red at the time, it was a Thatcher esque forearm smash. Everybody seemed to be watching his feet and not seeing what he did with his arms. I've not heard anyone with a similar view so I might just be ...

Someone contacted me almost two weeks ago asking about away travel for him and his 12yo son. He got sorted with the Supporters Club but then cancelled a week last Sunday (nine days ago) because it was sold out. Yet they are on sale today.

So when are games likely to be on apart from Friday nights and Saturday lunchtime? There's already way too much footy on TV, not really sure we need even more.

Our opening game will be televised and will be at 3 o’clock on Saturday, that’s 3 a.m. by the way.
