Could not get back into the Lincoln side after the car crash and is not a first choice in Scotland. Not looking like a player who is going to sort us out. He wasn't great in pre=season either.

Robins changed the habits of a lifetime (over 800 games managing in football) to go for a completely different approach to recruitment. The strong hints were coming from Robins he had relinquished control of transfers. King only said he signed off on them. That does not mean he was making the...

In the long run, we have to make every signing better year on year. That has simply not happened so far this year with the odd exception. In fact, most players look worse than last season and are making more mistakes. Team balance and confidence are all over the place. The coaches should be...

Agree, but you also have to develop them. Look at Vic and Gus when they first came. They developed considerably. Also, O'Hare, Sheaf and Eccles. In fact, virtually all our players got better over the tenure of Robins and Viveash. This year virtually all the players have gone backwards and are...

I feel our recruitment team have crunched too many stats and ignored the basic principle that football chemistry is human chemistry.

Love Oggy and always catch up with his CWR comments. However, Tommy Hutchison was Coventry City best ever player. Ticks all the boxes.

Absolutely agree, but why?

My choice, but his sacking came too late. Not sure there was any chance, but I wanted Corberan even with his defensive instincts.

Really thought we needed fresh legs

Think he scored on his debut at Derby. Remember one goal in front of our fans.

Could have done with text a sub at Norwich.

Maybe, but he should improve on Robins record during that time.

Alert, this may go on a bit, as is my wont, so if you are the type of person who only copes with the odd paragraph, please feel free to jog on now, and please no Parklife. Hands up, I am a Cassandra, I always fear the worst, but am rarely proved wrong in the long run. As background, I come from...

Toys back in the pram then out again in the last 5 minutes. Top Deck Doug needs to get us experience in the team. We needed subs near the end with fresh legs. Bad decision by Lamps and his coaches leaving it as was.

I am worried Sheaf is looking increasingly like O'Hare following his injury. A loss of that get in their faces and make the hard tackles that happened before. Sheaf may be worried about his injury happening again, or thinking he does not want another injury before a move. He certainly is...

Been linked with a loan back to Leicester.

Someone told me Stamenic is struggling at Olympiacos.

Pretty sure that is our template. Buy cheapish, develop then sell at a good profit. Rinse and repeat. The fly in the ointment recently has been the sums we have been paying and the development side of things.

Do you trust our Recruitment Team to do that?

Not a conspiracy theory. Head coaches in elite set ups have a great deal of say in players or type of players they want to sign or leave. May even have a lot of input if they know the player personally or want a loan from a former club. What they don't have is the final say which is a...
