    Championship thread 25/26!

    Wright, Simms and even Bassette are bigger than Ayew!

    Tommy Hutchison Book

    Yes the Bobby Mac thing was bizarre. He played the 1st game of the season at Birmingham when the whole team were pants and was then dropped in favour of Brian Roberts, and didn't get another look in until he was sold. If you put him and Hutch into the team that played the League Cup semi final...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I presume you mean in the village where you live? I can't picure the inhabitants of the populous communes in Paris and Marseille donning their hunting gear for a weekend jaunt :)

    Positive Haji

    Vik was 6-1 and Haji 16-1, so the double was 118-1. I put on two £5 singles and a £5 each way double. So £20 outlay for a possible payout of about £770 should they both come in :)

    Ok, can only say as I saw. Clearly Jekyll and Hyde!

    How many will we sign before the end of the window

    Depends on outgoings, but I'll go for 3 more before the deadline made up of a centre back, a wide right attacking player and if Bassette leaves a forward.

    Positive Haji

    Heart over head but I've bet an each way double on Vik/ Haji to be division top scorers, which I'm hoping isn't lost by the end of August through us selling Wright :eek:

    Who Else Is Nervous?

    The FIFA/ Football Manager generation are never going to be happy unless we are making 8 signings every Summer. Occasionally clubs do recruit like that (Birmingham and Wrexham this Summer for example) but there are no guarantees it will work out for them. In reality though, unless we lose Rudoni...

    Calum Davenport

    Do you know this as fact? I know things turned out badly for him but it doesn't tie in with the lad I occasionally saw in the Wyken Club during his time with us. Granted I can't say I knew him well but he certainly didn't seem the type at that time to give it the big I am. As for Grendel's...

    Callum O'Hare

    Unless they take under £15m they won't be making a loss! As the end of the transfer deadline nears and the games of bluff between buyers and sellers comes to a head we'll have a better idea of course. Hamer doesn't seem the type to actively push for a move by causing a stink, but Sheffield still...

    Callum O'Hare

    For some reason you have always had a downer on Hamer, and as we all know once your mind is made there is no changing it. Even in Hamer's final season with us when he had sorted his disciplinary issues out and stepped up another level you would not credit him for it. I presume on the basis that...

    Too late. He's already signed for Espanyol!

    Match Thread Coventry City v St Pauli (Friendly) - Sat 2 Aug 3:30 PM

    SV Hamburg have a bit of a right wing following so on the occasions they play St Pauli it can get pretty tasty.

    Transfer Rumour Bassette to FC Utrecht

    His performances against Spurs and Sheffield United last season clearly shows there is a player there despite some of the ridiculously over the top comments on here. If he can't get in front of Simms and BTA though, then there is a problem and it is best to let him go. I think if he goes to...

    Callum Wilson

    Might be a bit mixed as he's scored plenty against West Ham over the years, so at least he won't be able to do that anymore.

    Away kits question.

    Tommy Docherty was Derby's manager and quipped that he thought we would melt in the sun.

    Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth

    The last goal at Middlesbrough drawing a 'You're gonna get your fucking heads kicked in' aimed at the City fans behind the goal :eek:

    Away kits question.

    Also wore the brown kit at Derby when Steve Hunt made his debut for us.

    Callum Wilson

    Andy Impey had no other options and Adams was doing him a favour. Wilson will have plenty of well paid options.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    There were plenty using the same argument you are using now for selling MVE on the cheap, that thought we should sell Hamer and Gyokores a year before we did at much lower fees than we eventually got for them.
