    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Southend United Match Thread - Saturday 29th Dec

    Feeling a goal fest today by usual standards at the Ricoh. 3-3 draw I’m thinking. No idea which way he will go on team selection, guessing it is down to if Doyle is fit or Ogogo to what he decides. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Tom Bayliss - show me the money.

    I hate to see things like this, support and encourage them through games. The shit I’ve witnessed Jordan Shipley get this season and last year on occasions is embarrassing to see from mature men. Agree with your sentiments on young players and how you take them out the firing line but your...

    Tom Bayliss - show me the money.

    No it’s possible Jordan Turnbull helped with that.... That wasn’t my complete suggestion in a but it adds to competition for spaces in the middle with the addition of suitable wide players on funds generated. Come on one player don’t make or break a team, it’s about the ingredients each...

    Tom Bayliss - show me the money.

    Oh I see where your coming from now. Surely that philosophy could be made on any future incoming player? I understand your logic to building a team over 2/3 seasons and 100% agree MR was never going to or be in a position to assemble a side to get a second promotion with just two main windows...

    Former Coventry City coach Frankie Bunn has been sacked by Oldham Athletic and it’s reported they did this via email after a 6-0 thumping at Carlisle Boxing Day Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I’m sure the Portsmouth fans might be happy.... tho by the book we don’t yet hold his full registration. In all seriousness i’d prefer to roll the dice on getting a man to partner him and get more from his game than cut our losses just yet. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Surely Bret Pitman is well worth a enquiry if Portsmouth land Stockley. *Preston have reportedly triggered the release clause of Jayden Stockley a fee reported to be 750k, I expect this will be met by a few sides very quickly Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I think we’re underestimating the quality of defensive work Thomas does and will miss massively, ive question marks over if Allesani can be the answer just like Hiwula failed to answer in the defensive aspects. I’d move Bayliss to the right personally and allowing Kelly to go box to box with...

    Strikers

    That’s a given on the type of players they are as he only needs crosses in the box from good wide men and he will beat defenders a few times a game. He’s going to get that in corners alone. So the probability is higher. I like Stockley, he will boost the title hopes but I’m sure Sunderland...

    Not sure I follow in your comparison to Ogogo? I believe in the process of what he’s trying to do, and my aim for the season personally was getting to 50pts and then see where we are then on in. However the squad needs a left winger, potentially a right one too this January. Adding that...

    As I say, I have not seen yesterday’s performance so just going on words what’s been put in the ratings. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Tom Bayliss - show me the money.

    I’ve no question marks over his ability, although he’s not doing it now I believe he’s going to go far in the game and will take a similar route to Maddison where he goes to a championship club excels on loan somewhere and comes back a strong player for it. For me the 2/3 year plan or long term...

    Didn’t attend the game yesterday so cannot comment on his general performance till I see the game back but I was pleased to see his name on the score sheet. However I was hoping to see this reflected in some positive comments and ratings on the match ratings towards him yet they are still...

    Match Thread Shrewsbury Town vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Dec

    That’s probably due to the fact he’s never had two natural wingers to put in the same 11. At the start of both seasons he’s built his side for his favoured 4231 so has only had minimal options in the wide areas or not signing any for reasons only he can explain. Now if he does this again this...

    A way out of signing Chaplin?

    It was for Sheffield United yes, Nigel Adkins signed a striker used at previous clubs who’s good value for goals. Your point on the fee in 2015 is irrelevant tho. If you use examples of strikers scoring goals that have moved this window then that stacks up as a comparison Sent from my...

    A way out of signing Chaplin?

    Ha ha, ok. Just think about what your saying for a minute.... how can you compare a fee from 2015 to 2018? This summer we seen players leaving L2 for well over a million pounds Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    That was the summer of 2015 so puts nothing into context three years later in a far more inflated transfer market. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Tom Bayliss - show me the money.

    I’d question many aspects on what you’ve put but let’s go with a few. It’s not his end product that’s the problem, it’s his awareness, decision making, reluctance to release the ball. Switching off in games. Yes I’ve gone on a bit about how poor he’s been and now look at the response on here in...

    Imagine the flip side to this, he’d got say 10 goals this season and Portsmouth say well it was just a loan to 750k now.... Deals are agreed as insurance for both parties Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
