Going out of the Cup will have been a small price to pay if it has accelerated the need for re-inforcements at CB, RB and CM.

Worrying about our ability to come back from a goal down - or even two - is a symptom of supporting CCFC in recent years. But with the appointment of TM and his choice of coaches and advisers, I sense that at long last we have the real deal, a thoroughly professional backroom team that is...

Well done City, fantastic result! Trust that the Fortune doubters will be enjoying a jolly large slice of humble pie for tea tonight:whistle: In TM we trust.

Tend to agree with Rupert's analysis. With the injuries and suspesions we have/have had/will continue to have, it's patently clear that we don't have the depth of squad to compete in the league and cup. God forbid we should lose any players, especially Fleck, Ricketts or Armstrong for any length...

On top or coming from behind, would be happy with either Nick ;)

Plenty of goals in this one I think..... City to come out on top 4-2.

Good point earned tonight and important that we didn't lose. 4th place with a game in hand, an evolving team without Reda, Fleck, Maddison and Willis with Joe Cole finding his legs in the team. Good enough so far for me.

Can't remember the injury issue and you could well be right. For me, the 'shock' was that a player of his pedigree - Scotland captain, Leeds captain, Premier League winner and Champions League player - would move from a club like Leeds to Cov. It also sent out a signal that perhaps we could...

Gary McAllister was perhaps a shock signing, given that he joined little old Cov from the mighty Leeds United where he had won the Premier League and played in the Champions League (or whatever it was called then). Rumour had it at the time that the financial package on offer from us was too...

Yes - there are many things you could read into from his comments, interesting for me is reviewing the position after 35 days and seeing where everyone is. Many if's and but's but who knows? TM certainly deserves a lot of credit (again) and who knows what tomorrow may bring?

Well said Torch. With everything that's wrong with football, especially at the top end of the game, JC has a very refreshing attitude and is a great role model for younger players, particularly those that grab the biggest pay packet on offer above everything else.

Would go exactly with this team. Rochdale are no mugs and it's important we are set up not to lose. Have some doubts about Phillips, not just for his defending ability and I sometimes wonder if his brain is fully engaged. Witness the throw in on Saturday taken from the wrong place (ref too fussy...

If we play one up top, then surely it has to be Fortune or Tudgay? Thought Fortune was one of our better players yesterday, 100% effort but let down by the other 3 playing as individuals rather than as an effective unit around him. Morris for Fleck is the obvious swop and Cole (if ready) for...

If that team plays on Tuesday night, I'm having a tenner on us winning 14-13

Ha lol! It is the Telegraph though, always getting their worms mucking fuddled.

Can't decide if we will finally take more of our chances and win 5-0 or whether it will be a nervy 1-0. TM and the lads deserve a decent crowd for the entertaining footy they provide at home, would love to see 13,000+ as the 12th man.

As a former Blackpool player, let's hope that the ex-player curse works in our favour for once

Have we swooped for Eagles then??

I cannot believe the sheer arrogance of the dreadful Lucas woman, George Orwell's 1984 springs readily to mind.

I suggest at J3 of M6, you take the first left (B4113 I think it is), on short dual carriageway up to roundabout and turn right towards the Novotel. Just before hotel, there is the Wayside Industrial Park on the left hand side (signed for Ricoh parking), costs £2.50 and it is a secure car park...
