    Summer Transfer Window

    Are you going to hold a gun to players heads? The main reason we sold Gyokeres and Hamer was they were both coming into their last year of their contracts. Neither of them were going to sign another contract. We let them go nearly 2 years ago because if we didn't we would have lost them for not...

    Why

    To me he is just like an insurance policy. I hope we don't need him but if we do I will be happy we paid the small premium. He can cover different positions.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Sunderland Match Thread - Saturday 15th Mar

    9 wins from the last 11 games and you fear Sunderland? They're absolutely poor at defending high balls. We're the masters of high balls and scoring with headers. They will be fearing this game more than you.

    So they can say 'told you so' if we lose and quietly celebrate if we win.

    How about how the gap has shrunk in the last 11 games? Or how they recently lost their best player to injury a few games ago with another player in the same game who was a 1st teamer? Le Fee has been on loan from Roma since January. They paid €23m for him last summer.

    Hull Moved To Monday Night

    Other than for those who now can't make the game it's a right bonus being moved to a night game. Hull doesn't look as bad in the dark.

    Nine To Go.

    I have us 5 wins out of the last 9 games. That would put us on 71 points. Good chance of getting 5th from that. Our game against WBA will be important.

    Nine To Go.

    The other point often missed out on is how quickly we caught up and then went past the teams below us. People couldn't even see us catching up with WBA. For us to lose out it would take WBA to get at least the same amount of points as us and another club to do better than us by 2 points or...

    Lack of goals is going to cost us...

    We need a balance of players like MVE and Thomas going forward. When they're joining un on the attack and we lose the ball we're totally out of shape for the counter attack.

    Would prefer players with height running into their box as it's a weakness of theirs. Grimes and Torp 100%. Saka and EMC tearing them a new one on the wings and putting balls into the box.

    Most probably get a player like Poku cheaper with a tribunal decision than negotiating with a club on a player under contract. A yes from me.

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Plymouth had something like 18% possession and hit them on the break twice. Just shows how difficult it can be to break down a side playing with their backs to the wall.

    Just come across this from their ex GK Gabbiadini

    Sunderland are struggling up front a bit. 20 shots last game with just 2 on target. Their GK is a bit suspect and they struggle with high balls into their area. This is one of our strengths.

    Nine To Go.

    Swap us playing Sheffield United for them playing Leeds and we're then playing against the same sides for our most difficult games. Then add Norwich and Watford for them who are both still in the playoff hunt. That's 6 out of their remaining 9 games. We have a 2 point advantage. WBA don't...

    That's a lot of money for Sheaf though. Not ready to drop into a Prem side and a lot of money for a Championship side.

    Nine To Go.

    Are you on about the post saying IF we're still in the top 6 after our next 3 games? Remaining games are very important. Look at our next 3 remaining games. Yet I wouldn't swap with Bristol City. Yes games against sides at the bottom can and will be difficult. They're playing for their...

    Preston not a given either. They drew 1-1 at Sunderland last game keeping them to 2 shots on target. Sunderland didn't score until near the end of the game.

    Their manager may have left a club in the playoffs to join a club in a relegation battle but he isn't an idiot. He did a job on us. They got the luck we didn't. A player on each wing and the other 8 crowding the area. We had to get players into the box to try and counteract it. They got the...
