    Thorn already making excuses for hinckley clash.

    I hope this kind of bollocks doesn't carry on beyond silly season.

    Deegan

    I've hardly seen the distribution of a City midfielder so lacking as it was in Deegan when he came in at the tail end of last season. Prior to that, I didn't think him a world beater but could see him adding to our squad. Now I am not so sure, but I'm not inclined to judge the likes of Jennings...

    Brian Howard

    We are shooting the other way, he's playing on the left. Or the right. Whichever is correct.

    things i would like to know

    Yeah. If he smiles, then that will fit perfectly into my agenda (i.e. he is a nice bloke / a smug twat). Let us know if you see him at the aforementioned games and what his facial expression has done to your opinion.

    possible new signing?

    I am not sure I buy into this 'we are in League One now, we need some brutes' mentality. I think you could fight a case for Norwich and Southampton being more passing sides than physically dominant sides in their consecutive promotion seasons, although that is a moot point... No one is claiming...

    Steve Jennings

    Now a straight toss up as to whether to believe those people who have spoken directly to people who have seen him play a bit and are positive or to go with those people who Googled his goals to game ratio and are making a snap negative judgement on that... I will go with the latter and decide...

    Bigi off to Newcastle

    When he made his debut in the opening game of last season, he was our best player on the park. Played with his head up, confident on the ball, did the simple thing and didn't waste possession. He maintained a decent run of form for the first quarter or third of the season and then went downhill...

    blackpool fans thoughts on fleck

    Would have been nice to see a few more positive comments, but if he had done well there we probably wouldn't have got him. He was on loan and sounds like a bit of a confidence player. Had bags of potential, but maybe gone off the boil a little. I think he will end up being loved and feeling more...

    Bigirimana

    I have a feeling Bigi will stick around, but the consensus is not wrong... you can't legislate for an acceptable offer being made for a promising youngster and a cash strapped selling club doing what they do best. As a compromise, don't get his whole name, just BIGI. Done.

    Any money from Leon Best sale?

    Always rated Best, held the ball up magnificently and I definitely thought he had something about him. I can see him being a cracking acquisition for a Championship side, although £3m sounds massively inflated.

    Stephen Elliott Signs

    I am delighted to hear we have bought a player. I am delighted it is a striker. I hope this doesn't conclude our business, naysayers would be better off realising even a player they don't rate is better than no player at all. Welcome to the Club, for all the shit we give it I will be there week...

    Thorn Out

    As far as SISU not sacking Thorn because he remains the cheap and easy option, I was of much the same opinion. I am assured it was a fact that they were consider sacking him before the Millwall (?) home game last season. If it wasn't Millwall, apologies. It was a game we won and it remained...

    mcpake gone for free!

    I am an optimist.

    Noel Whelan

    When someone says "who would take the Cov job" it is not the same as stating "no one in football would apply to be the manager of a League 1 team". Apologies for being sensible, I can see it pissed on your chips.

    mcpake gone for free!

    Horrible bit of business. If he wanted to leave, I think the Club should have honoured it. However, get some money. I would have been disappointed not to recoup less than £200k (however unlikely). He could absolutely have done a job in our first team. If Keogh and Cranie leave, we are now hoping...

    Deal agreed with rangers for John Fleck

    No, I would need to see four League games. Following this, he would have to post me a photo of him wearing a Coventry top, with his contract in one hand and a newspaper with date in the other. With a West Midlands post mark on the envelope.

    Deal agreed with rangers for John Fleck

    I'd heard good things about Fleck and was a little surprised to see him plying his trade (often off the bench?) last season at Blackpool, thinking that he may have been offering something to Rangers by that stage. Haven't seen much of him in action, but definitely not the sort of name I would be...

    Norwood to Barnsley?

    Let's take sky blue tinted glasses off. You are a young footballer, released by a big Club. You enjoyed a spell at a relegated Championship club for the latter part of the previous season. They are willing and able (entering the realms of complete bollocks here, by the way) to match the offer on...

    Driver out of contract?

    I am more qualified to tell you about how good Andrew Driver is than I am Yeovil Town. However, as I have heard of both of them, I feel I can pass comment. Talented, but a sicknote. Play in green or maybe yellow. Case closed.
