    My concern with Robins

    I agree with a lot of what's been said in relation to MR. 1. He's got control of the footballing side of the club, which at some other places he would have a number of others involved in final decisions. 2. He has created 4 generations of teams to take us from L2 to being a play off team in the...

    Gyokeres Deal Details

    With Sporting top of the Portuguese league and still in the Europa Cup, I can't see them selling in January. If someone comes up with the "reported" 100m euro release clause fee, then it would be interesting to see if Vik wants to leave at this point. I'm not sure anyone will bid 100m euro's...

    Callum contract offer

    Some of the reasoning behind longer contracts relates to amortisation and FFP. However, on our case we can discount FFP, but it’s probably a case of trying to avoid a Vik and Gus situation

    Transfer Rumour Confirmed - Bradley Collins

    Collins has led a bit of a charmed life until last night. He seems to spill fairly straight forward shots every game. Luckily he re-gathers them quickly. I feel most the credit for the clean sheets should go to the back 4 . On the positive side, he manages to keep the ball in play with his...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Swansea City Match Thread - Friday 29th Dec

    The first goal for Swansea looked like Allen dawdling on the ball, rather than clearing it. Thomas should have headed the ball wide rather than down the middle before the free kick. Collins positioning for the free kick & he seems to have a nasty habit of spilling the ball. We looked the...

    Worst fan you’ve ever sat near

    I had the misfortune to sit near a bloke who repeated "go forwards" all the time at Wembley. He started to moan at Vik for passing it across to Hamer......until he scored!

    Match Thread Coventry City - Southampton Match Thread - Wednesday 13th Dec

    Smallbone was class against us last season for Stoke. However, on Saturday he was a substitute and came on in the 87th minute. Their midfield must be good for him not to be starting OR their manager is missing something?

    Regarding the comments that COH doesn’t fit the system. It wasn’t long ago that some were criticising MR for not having a plan B . Potentially, we now can adjust to a back 3 with wing backs etc , if our current system isn’t working against certain teams.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The evidence being highlighted in the enquiry demonstrates the PM's lack of care and intelligence to grasp the scope of elements to be considered. It seems to me that focus was on economy first, without realising that late lockdowns led to increased economic damage. Old people are dispensable...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    I had expected a far better return from Simms & Wright by this time. However, I'm left wondering if the system we are playing doesn't fit with the players. Playing two up front with Godden + Simms/Wright just doesn't seem to work. They're is little linkage play between them and aimless long...

    If in a couple of weeks we have Allen, O'Hare & Palmer at full fitness. Will we see MR return to the box formation with Simms as the only striker in some matches?
