    Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth

    Think he’ll come good like Dovin did last season but will take 10-20 games A few frustrating mistakes so far but there is no way I’d bring Wilson back in like some have suggested

    Match Thread Leicester City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Sep

    Have only watched them against Birmingham this season but I would definitely take a draw They didn't play great but were solid defensively and clinical on the break - need our defence to be on it to get anything

    Video Doug King answers your questions about Coventry City's stadium purchase! 🏟️

    Clearly wanted to reiterate the point about revenue - which is fair enough I personally prefer Dhillon's pre-matchbut will start going to the Fan Village now that we own it. Think it is important as fans we support the club where we can Think using the Exhibition Hall or a big gazebo (remember...

    6 team play off

    Other way around: 5th vs 8th -> winner plays 4th 6th vs 7th -> winner plays 3rd

    6 team play off

    Is it working really well? No team in the league is sustainable. I’m not enthused by this idea but you can’t hate on the EFL for trying to get more money into the leagues while the PL gallops off into the distance

    6 team play off

    A lot of National League fans complain about the system - teams in 7th/8th get a slight advantage in playing the week before and being more match fit whereas the team who finish higher don't play for two weeks

    I agree with you - but loans can also be detrimental. It is up to the coaching staff to decide which is the more beneficial approach for the coming season Chris Rigg is an example of keeping a prospect - played ~800 minutes for Sunderland in 23/24 rather than going out on loan & then played...

    Man City do not loan out players who they genuinely think can make it into the first team (not just Foden - Palmer, Lewis, Bobb) seeing it as more beneficial to learn from the first team & Peps notoriously difficult system They do loan any player below that bracket as they are basically priming...

    Does anyone else feel that we’ve been sold short ?

    "We did OK" (in the transfer window) "We're full of quality" "Squad is a little bit thin" Good to hear he is aligned with what most (sane) fans think. It is clear he wanted more as well and this isn't a case of us being happy with what we have I expect us to push again for 2/3 in January

    Torp X factor

    Really hoping he stays fit as I think he'll have an incredible season. He's got everything Will need to rotate with Eccles during 3-game weeks as he does tend to tire & the whole team looks worse

    Lampard to West Ham

    No Prem team is going for Frank unless we're promoted & even then they'll see how he goes The gap between the PL & Champ is getting wider coaching-wise due to the money/status of the league. Villa got Emery & Palace got Glasner while sat in the relegation zone - 10 years ago that would have...

    Who’d be an owner.

    A few things: - Don't think this is an Austin problem. His role was described at the fans forum as a service providing a list of options in each position. The manager then picks the players & Doug negotiates - Doug seems to drive a hard bargain & will only pull the trigger if he sees a lot of...

    Transfer Rumour Miguel Ángel Brau

    Took Torp 18 months. I'd imagine it will be similar with Brau

    Championship thread 25/26!

    People are being hasty about how open it will be I think it'll be Southampton & Ipswich top 2 despite their starts - both have stuttered but I see it similar to Leeds 2 years ago where they started terribly due to flux of the transfer market but still managed to finish on 90+ points Leicester...

    Does anyone else feel that we’ve been sold short ?

    If the (winger) Rak-Sakyi rumour was true it could be that Palace's failed move for Solomon meant that we couldn't get it done

    Best of Both Worlds - Hannah Montana 2006

    We rode our luck in 2 of the 3 away games playing 5-3-2 (Blackburn / Sheff W). Dovin played amazingly during that run too We also played it against Norwich, which was probably our best away performance playing a 5 but we fucked it right at the end

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Fucking hell, we shat the bed for the first 1/3 of last season and still made the play-offs. We'll be fine

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It has been a pretty average window assuming only Woolf joins - but we're stronger than last year GK: Collins -> Rushworth RB: Lati -> KKH CB: Binks -> Woolf LB: Bidwell -> Brau That's 4 positions where our options are better than last season. Only 1 position is weaker (CM). That and the need...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    The BBC Wales reporter linked us with Jesurun Rak-Sakyi - the winger who played on loan at Sheff U last season

    Did you know Coventry are embracing a Red Bull-style vertical intent?

    Can see the flaw in this right away tho as Sheff U were viewed as the hardest team to face when in reality they’ve been shite
