    Relegation fodder

    We’re three or four quality players away from a decent team. Maybe 5. Astute signings, like MR did with Kelly, Godden, Fadz, Allen, COH, Gus and Vik. Maybe, with a vein of experience and a dash of an on-field general, we will be gracing that elusive top 6. Until then, we are right in it, if...

    Captaincy

    Agree 100%. Maybe MR thought he could grow into the role, or something.

    Steady on chaps, this is how certain folk go Phishing.

    Relegation fodder

    He’s not beyond criticism, I agree, and he has to shoulder some of the blame of not pulling out the stops to replace experienced players with experienced players. He has to take the blame for appointing a captain who isn’t a captain, and for not trying to smooth things over with Viveash. The...

    Absolutely, what could possibly go wrong!? 😂

    Captaincy

    Have to say, it was a lovely cross by EMC. Anyone like Simms and Haji, you’d think they would bury it, and Norman probably should have.

    Are either of Lampards coaches known for their tactical ability? Someone on YouTube was saying that Lampard is a bit tactically naive and it was Jody Morris who was the more tactically minded.

    Captaincy

    He isn’t captain material, it’s just patently obvious to anyone with eyes. It’s a shame, though, and I feel the expectation is weighing on Sheaf. He’s not a leader, however the conundrum is; who will replace him? The only realistic option is Bidwell.

    Relegation fodder

    Undoubtedly, however there just appeared to be a lack of alternative options or urgency to get the most crucial players in. The only experienced guys we looked at were Browne and Worral (?), and I’m still not quite sure how nobody else was identified? Doug has to allow Lampard to bring in...

    Relegation fodder

    If there was a vein of experience through this team, we would be ok. It’s very simple. Look at the way Sir Alex integrated his class of 92 into his first team, and ensured they had quality players around them, like Cantona, Pallister, Irwin, Schmeichel etc. Throwing a gaggle of youngsters...

    As you were, then. Battling for a point.

    Viktor Moving on

    He’s the complete forward player; strength, stamina, speed, finishing, aerial ability, quick feet and ruthless. What sets him in possible legendary territory is how many assists he gets on top of his goal tally. It’s amazing to watch his trajectory now, and I remember us all saying that if he...

    Hopeful of a demolition job, today, however I would happily take a 1-0 and a clean sheet ‘bounce’. I wonder how many times Clive refers to us as ‘Frank Lampards Sky Blues/Coventry City’ today…I’d imagine he’d stop after Oggy’s nudge and cringe, though. 🤣

    Ellis Simms

    Last goal he scored was against Luton, which in fairness, was a decent goal. 👍🏻

    Ellis Simms

    I can see Simms being loaned out at this rate, if another striker comes in January. Something is clearly not working for him here, he plays like someone who can’t fully grasp what his role is, and what’s expected of him. There’s a very good player in there, however right now, he’s just not...

    Pep

    Ah, how ironic. Would you like me to broadcast the extent of my crushing mental health issues, stemming from decades of misdiagnosis? Aside from what I choose to share, willingly, I would not particularly think it ‘helpful’ for people to know who simply do not understand the complexity of my...

    Pep

    You’re asking ‘why?’?! What did you find incredulous in what I stated?

    Pep

    Could be any number of things, however if it’s personal issues, it would be unscrupulous to discuss it openly on a forum.

    Haji Wright injury

    Big name my arse, it’ll be Glen Little.

    New manager

    I just really, really do not want Lampard. If we get him, I’ll back him, but I’d happily have someone like Steve Cooper over that phoney.
