    Pato

    People who don’t want him are blinded by him “rejecting” us before. As I put in the other thread; Proven in the league, experienced head and offers a creative option off the bench. It’s a low risk, low cost signing and he’d be fully committed and motivated to prove a point. Albeit the ‘Pato’...

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    I think so. Proven in the league, experienced head and offers a creative option off the bench. It’s a low risk, low cost signing and he’d be fully committed and motivated to prove a point.

    Mini Bus / Coach Hire

    Probably too far for Ubers and ideally need the coach to wait around. I’ve reached out to local companies, there just doesn’t seem to be many!

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    They will bring a full allocation and make some noise, we’re playing with confidence, momentum is continuing to build and play offs back on. Fans and players will be up for it. And all under the lights. Wednesday is going to be a cracker. 2-1, Simms, Rudoni.

    Anyone got any contacts / recommendations / work in the field? Aiming to hire one (including Driver) for around 10/12 people to take us to/from an all day sporting event.

    Match Thread Swansea FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Sat 1st Feb 3PM KO

    Players we know are talented are finally performing, looking motivated and confident. Frank et al have to take credit for that. Things are positive and it’s now an exciting end to the season, which is fantastic considering a few weeks ago it looked like a nothing end. Let’s avoid any point...

    Also, I’ll continue to say this (or something along these lines) every match thread; Rudoni is class. He has one of the highest ceilings (jargon bingo) in our squad, if not the highest. He’s stepped up post Frank, but no idea how he was ever doubted.

    Match Thread Swansea FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Sat 1st Feb 3PM KO

    Re the upturn in the form of BTA, I don’t think it’s any coincidence it’s been since we switched to two up top and the fact is partner is Simms.

    And she loves Swansea. So, not a happy home life.

    Match Thread Swansea FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Sat 1st Feb 3PM KO

    If we’re up for it, we win. It’ll be a big test of character as they’re going to be extra motivated and come at us, plus it’ll be a riled up crowd and atmosphere. Few weeks ago I’d have said we’d absolutely buckle, but the confidence and team unity we’ve seen recently, coupled with our...

    Tavares

    Great guy. I hope he does well and has a good career. He deserves it and I do think there’s a player in there. Hope he get to show it!

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Speaks well, seems mature and says the right things. He’ll be a good experienced head in the dressing room as well as the pitch. Albeit Nandos is a disappointing generic choice of venue. Footballers favourite though!

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Regardless of when it’s official I’m sure Frank et al have been tapping into his inside knowledge. He’s trained with those players every day for months/years and knows better than scouting reports how their manager thinks. Invaluable information I hope we’re aiming to utilise to end the...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    I know and have seen very little about Luke Williams, but first impressions and all, he isn’t a manager I’d want to work for. No wonder him and Grimes reportedly fell out. This is a very immature and petty response. Third hand; I do know a few people who worked with him and reviews were very...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    I think it has to be the aim and we work backwards from it, if it doesn’t work. I would keep EMC left as that’s where we started to see the player we all expected. Simms central, as that’s the only position he can really play, plus he’s proven he can score in this league playing that role...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Grimes at 6 Torp and Rudoni interchanging 8’s EMC and Wright on the wings Simms at CF That’s an incredibly technical, ball playing midfield three and a very fast, agile, direct and full of movement front three. So much potential to play into space (over the top, through CB/Full back open...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Love players like this, even more so now we have so much pace in the team. His short passing is good too and his retention stats are strong so expect a few moans when he chooses the simple ball over a Hollywood one, and conversely expect a few moans when the holllywood ones don’t come off! Our...

    Good question

    Rudoni has always been very good and was underrated on here for ages. However one fair criticism was his tendency to drift in and out of games. That doesn’t happen now. Torp has always been one of our best technical players, but it never felt like he was anywhere near where he should be...
