A kick for Collins, not sure he needs it as always committed, but nobody should be undroppable - come on to score.

Not a bad suggestion if we could lure him down a couple of divisions. Bristol RoversIn June 2004 he moved to Bristol Rovers on a free transfer. In his second season, he became caretaker manager and was then appointed first-team coach in a two-tier managerial structure, alongside Director of Football Lennie Lawrence, in November 2005. His first season in charge ended in a respectable midtable position of 12th place in League Two. The following year Rovers reached the Football League Trophy final but lost to Doncaster Rovers. They made up for this loss by winning promotion to League One via the play-offs. Birmingham CityIn July 2011, Trollope was appointed first-team coach of Championship club Birmingham City to work with manager Chris Hughton. When Hughton left for Premier League club Norwich City at the end of the season, Trollope went with him, again as first-team coach. He left the club when Hughton was dismissed in April 2014. Cardiff CityAt the end of the 2015–16 season, Cardiff manager Russell Slade moved into a head of football role and Trollope was named as his successor. His first job in management since departing Bristol Rovers six years previously. Slade later resigned from his role, after just two weeks, on 3rd June. After a poor start to the season, winning 2 of his opening 12 matches, Trollope was sacked by the club on 4th October 2016. Brighton & Hove AlbionOn 24th November 2016, Trollope joined Brighton & Hove Albion as assistant manager. After the sacking of Chris Hughton on 13th May 2019 as Brighton manager, Trollope was also relieved of his duties at the club. Nottingham ForestOn 8th October 2020, Trollope again followed former manager Chris Hughton as assistant, joining Nottingham Forest. Luton TownIn November 2022, Trollope joined Luton Town as joint-assistant manager to former international teammate Rob Edwards. Can’t believe that was 2005! Really want to swear

Seems like ages since I’ve been. Fingers crossed for a good performance and a nice 2-0 win under the lights.

I’d bet we do not make it to 150. How much?

I'm full of admiration for your optimism. Vale had a good start to the season but have fallen away, here's hoping your prediction comes true, I'll be watching from my kitchen in Sweden Well, its like the first game of the season. I want to be depressed on my own viewing as opposed reading others negativity. One of the reasons I havent been so far, is I have had a tour around Scandinavia including Denmark, Norway and West Sweden.

I don't think I have started a match thread.
For various reasons it is my first game of the season and I cannot wait. Will I recognise many of the squad?
I am going 3-1 with plenty of good stuff from us.

Sadly inevitable given how he has been asked to play second fiddle to some really inexperienced keepers - Balcombe last season and now Cox (and possibly third fiddle behind Hall) this season. Best keeper we have had since Martyn in my opinion and I wish him well for whatever comes after us. I’d have been asking for a move too in his shoes. Hope the two young uns are as good. Well everyone loses firm, he did, the keeper should be allowed to be dropped like anybody else. His reaction was very poor.

Dont mind the grey, but not a fan of the centralised badges. A great video and a great message, dampened some what given how we have just shafted a load of less abled fans with the South Stand farce I don't think the Club has tried to shaft anybody, itself either by this reduced capacity. Sure, slightly misjudged or mismanaged as a development but not with any spite.

Connor having/had a medical as the Quarters. I've read £300,000 believed to be the fee. Great time to be a Gashead! This is a great signing if it goes through. Young commanding mobile centre half, whats not to like. And as for us spending this, unheard of for some years. Looking forward to the season.

Yep! - Yet another boring game! 2 wins in 11 home games this year! Clearly not enjoying it then. Last nights game was very entertaining and decent quality. We played some good football first half without creating, a couple of silly mistakes and we chase. However second half, a real good go and exciting. Top team just tried everything to take the sting out of it through 'professionalism' as did Derby, so these top teams are trying to nullify. Our lads were excellent, young guns mistakes have to be marginally accepted. I would have taken a comfortable position with a handful of games to go at the beginning following promotion. Next year we can push forward and ive renewed my ST and already looking forward to it.

Wish him the best and hope he continues to develop into a great player, even elsewhere.

Mr Trevor Clarke has gone to Shamrock Rovers with a view to a permanent transfer. Long term injury followed by long term contract then frozen out of the team then a starter now gone. 3rd choice (at least) LB, wish him well. Probably best for all. I think he has some ability, but doesnt suit us.
