As the importance to pick up points grows with every game, I fear the team lacks
The quality, experience and guile needed to see us through. 0-1

With everyone available I'd go with that

A Stevenson/Rose midfield lacks any tackling ability or strength. Surely we need a ball winner in there don't we?*

*Not that we've got one of course.

Coventry city home form..
P. W. D. L. F. A. GD. Pts
12 3 6 3 13 11 2 15

I think our home form is gonna be key to our survival chances.

I can't predict the team selection. What I do know is we have to win realistically or confidence will drain away before the manager and new signings have barely got their feet under the table.
Slade had another week to get his message across so I'll plump for a hard fought win.

You can't say that! Only Tony Mowbray makes bad signings ;)

Still early days under RS but he's got to transform a entire confidence shot squad and shape with new players in 4 weeks while the need for points is drastically increasing as each game passes.
Defence is now strengthen with size, experience and pedigree.
Midfield needs a general ideally and wingers.
Up top desperately need a target man in my eyes and pace with vernam likely the one to add that.
That's slades biggest problem to solve... goals.
I trust RS still.

If by the end of the window we can end up with something like:

Burge (still want a proper GK)
Foley Clarke Rawson Stokes
Reid Reilly DM LW
Vernam Beavon

I reckon we might just be OK. Shame there's no place for the likes of Stevenson, Thomas and Willis, but we are in the shit and it's not the time to blood kids sadly.

When I somewhat tongue-in-cheek suggested Rose as a target man, no one shot me down. Mind you I suppose no one took me seriously either

On Saturday we was in desperate need for him to win some headers.... I can only recall him winning one from a cross/corner. Another case of a 6ft + player unable to use his size in this way.

We desperately need a target man to do that role in my opinion

I'm sure that Foley will be a good player/squad member for us, but I agree, I thought Willis played well on Saturday and would be unfortunate to lose his place. Did Foley get a knock on Saturday?

Yeah I agree, I just think Willis should play whilst he's still here. Foley went off due to injury looked like hamstring? Odd because he should be match fit

Seeing if we get anyone else in first before predicting start XI - think we may nick it 1-0 Fleetwood strong at home not so strong away.
