Agreed on Man City, but I'm pretty sure they would rather play at the CBS or Hillsborough than Kenilworth Road.

The difference between the sales of Gyokores and Hamer, was that clearly right from the off Gyokores had set his sights on moving to Lisbon. That posed a few problems for DK who I'm sure would have liked a bidding war with a few PL clubs to increase his transfer fee. Fair do's to DK though, as...

For arguments sake what happens in that scenario if he gets injured and isn't available to play 15 games? From what you have said we would then have to pay £1m & 75% of his wages!

Penalties is the only scenario where I could possibly see Wednesday beating us, probably after they have parked the bus and our forwards misfire. Is the replay straight to penalties after 90 minutes, or is there extra time first?

Its a nice change not to see the usual 'shit draw' comments. I imagine there's plenty from Maidstone thinking that though!

Is this season tickets your selling on though? If so how much are those tickets per match?

The equivalent today would be something like Eastleigh beating Villa. That would be a much bigger shock than Maidstone winning at Ipswich.

Rather apt timing with all that Kasey Palmer has had to face last week. Looks like an interesting exhibition to go to for anyone in London in the next month or so. https://www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2024/event/from-the-caribbean-to-coventry-plotting-the-rise-of-2tone

I'll have a bash at Sunderland. A kind of repeat of their deadline day sighing of Will Grigg :)

The players that will ultmately give us a big edge in reaching the play offs are O'Hare, Sakamoto (and possibly Van Ewijk), who are the hardest to replace when missing. Lose any of them and making the play offs immediately becomes much harder. There obviously is a tipping point at which an offer...

Tier 2 German football you say? Plays as an 8 you say? It all sounds very familiar ........................ that's it I remember Hilsnner :eek:

I can see the family zone getting a bigger season ticket price hike than elsewhere come next season precisely because of this. Whilst missing mid week games for certain age groups is understandable, it does appear that a fairly large number of adults have taken advantage of the cheap family zone...

Looks like the CCFC facebook page has joined the messaging for fans to wear their 2 tone kits in solidarity with Kasey Palmer on Friday.

Wednesday also have a mid week game to play so I imagine they are as likely to rest players as we are. Its a real tough one to call teamwise but the likes of MVE, Saka & O'Hare looked a bit leggy in Saturday's game, and we could really do with them freshened for the Bristol game. However...

@Mcbean - That's a fantastic shout. If the club itself are not allowed to wear the kit, what a great message of support it would be for Palmer to see 4,000 Cov fans wearing 2 tone. Would be great if this could be championed by the movers and shakers amongst our support to publicise the idea and...

Surely that wouldn't have altered how the goalie set up the wall though! Also what goes around comes around (even if its ancient history). I still remember Steve Hodge taking out our defensive wall to make room for a Stuart Pearce free kick in the League Cup semi final at the City Ground in an...

Some people really do dislike Hamer, I guess on the basis of the sort of stuff Saddlebrains wrote, and also by his social interaction with our fans, which always seems to piss off elements of our fanbase for some reason (Biamou and Baker being other previous examples). While Saddlebrains has had...

No doubt he doesn't play like O'Hare (who does?), but at this moment he is more likely to have been brought to play in place of O'Hare than Eccles, even if it doesn't happen until next season.

I suspect the F1 thing has a fair bit to do with the close locations of many of the team set ups having headquarters between Cov & Oxford, and with many of the technical crew originating from Cov, with our traditional connection to the motor industry.

I believe at various points both Stoke and Sunderland have sounded MR out about moving on.
