Yeah was a Xmas tree designed from there names, good design to be fair. Suppose there is still time, does this club ever do things in the correct time fame? [emoji6]

Anyone had a JSB Xmas card from the club this year?

This is guaranteed in a Russell Slade team, used them at all his previous clubs. He's even used a few of the same players at each of his clubs. Alex Revel was a favourite of his previously.

I think he was on a hiding to nothing there.. had to trim the squad back, was not the majoritys preferred choice manager either, a club that needed stabilising after the premier league. Similar to the task jimmy floyd was asked to do for QPR. Slade got the results more where as jimmy didn't.

He's a traditional 442 man and used a target man up top, a bit more route one but more effective at getting results that possession based football at league one level. Seems to like the little man big man combo at his previous clubs too so I expect to see a target man in January [emoji106]

Seriously is this the best the telegraph could do, it's like a pathetic response from a wimpy kid that ends up being bullied more because of stupid comments

I feel quite upbeat about this appointment, it's the first time in ages that I feel we've got a man in that really understands the level we are at, budget he can seriously work with and should identify the players who will come and roll there sleeves up, be counted and work for each other and...

Great news.... hopefully a switch to slades favoured 442 in January and use of a target man ASAP.

According to les Reid it's a DONE DEAL..... Itssssss christttmaasssssss!

That's more like it! [emoji106]

Better off just going to step two... [emoji6]

Maybe 500 odd more games as a manager, built his own teams, experienced relegation battles and signed hundreds more players in his career over jimmys short spell. I bet jimmys paid more in transfer fees than Russell Slade too in his short career. Suits our needs more at the minute in time.

I knew we'd win you round.... [emoji6]. He is a lower league dream, best we can hope for and I've called it for a while. January I'm hoping to see the "men" come and a target man for sordell to play off.

The most important stat about him we need to worry about in the short term is he's never been relegated with any of his sides!!! A seasoned pro at a dog fight

Oooo, Have all our Christmases come at once?????

Good player at this level but only just signed a 2 1/2 year deal at Crawley.... in September meaning he's unable to play till January for them

The mans proved he can work on free's only and still make a resilient team, no backing required, just a budget however big, small or dwindling..... he's a top man manager, I expect to see a improved sordell with him around. A man motivator!!! Our only hope of survival

Only took a few weeks to make a approach... telegraph reporting it now http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/coventry-city-set-appoint-russell-12351947

Out of the possible likely managers this one I'm most optimistic about.

TM was initially till end of season too
