    Transfer Rumour Fadz to Blackburn

    If he goes, wish him all the best. Very influential in our rise and a very genuine player. Rovers fans up in arms though - looks like they are selling best academy product for years and getting Fadz in on same day!

    Transfer targets

    If we keep Godden but want another option up front, Davis Keillor-Dunn at Mansfield is worth a look. Nigel Clough's sides play good football and DKD can play LW, AM or CF.

    This team will be better than the 22/23 team

    Agree with OP. What do people think we need to do in January? Am wondering if we will sign a left winger / left sided attacker as we are potentially formidable down the right already. Obviously Hamer replacement. Maybe a CF with good aerial ability - with Wright and Simms running the...

    Match Thread Preston North End FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 4th Nov

    Good shout about Dujon Sterling BTW. He did come good for us (and young players are entitled to nightmare performances which they learn from e.g. Doyle v Bristol City last year), but he was incredibly poor that day, literally getting the wrong side of the man he was marking constantly and his...

    Have we lost mentality?

    It is frustrating but progress is being made, I reckon. Scoreline wise, we have not been beaten by more than one goal all season i.e. we have been in contention in every game. That said, it was worrying that MR basically admitted we were screwed when Bristol changed formation and brought on...

    Match Thread Hull (A) Friday 15th September

    O'Hare's return will go some way to solve lack of creativity. I think Wright will come good, he's got too many good attributes not to. Eventually I think we will revert to box midfield with Ayari and O'Hare behind him as lone striker.

    Top 100 Cov players of all time

    The only real surprise is that they didn't include Andy Morrell!

    Top 100 Cov players of all time

    Whoever did this is on the wind-up, surely... So much to sneer at - my biggest laughs (apart from no1 player spelt wrong) were Doyle at no.16 (I wouldn't have him in top 100 at all) and the obligatory mention of Carl Baker!

    Transfer targets

    BTW, very pleased we kept Bidwell... and that we did not re-sign Panzo! Nothing to do with Wembley error, just feel Panzo is an excellent athlete, but poor defender. Can be good in the air and can bring the ball out, but poor positional sense - often ball watches - and lacks mental strength...

    Transfer targets

    I agree, but I get the feeling we would have done so if the right ones had become available for us. Less worried about midfield than up front, although we have operated a lot with just one striker recently so we should be fine. Overall, still a decent re-build with potential (ie money left...

    Transfer targets

    Not that worried about another defender if we keep Bidwell. Lati is very capable and Binks can play left sided CD if needed, then Bidwell in emergency. I think we may suffer a bit without an imposing box to box midfielder though. Easy to forget a certain midfielder was good at winning the ball...
