    I don't understand how people get so upset in general re an internet forum. It's embarrassing. Nobody likes being disagreed with, and I understand feeling passionately about your personal views and opinions, but the reason people chose to post under pseudonyms is the anonymity; it's "safe" to...

    Harsh. We're lucky to have a keeper with such great distribution.

    We have 5 at the back and we still look pathetically vulnerable. Rose is now our target man too, alongside Jones. Two really gifted players. I love being a cov fan.

    Disagree - it's a bang average show! I'd still prefer it to being here today to be fair.

    Why the hell is Rose playing 10? He is the least creative midfielder we have. Obviously the whole Willis at RWB is ridiculous too. Rawson is massive. Let's hope he's not a disappointment like Johnson #controversial.

    Turnbull doesn't have the right attributes to play left back. Equally Willis doesn't to play RWB. Is Venus still picking the team?

    Can you make an 11

    Him and Hussey are two of the worst full backs I have ever seen. Ironically, they are also two of the most arrogant footballers I have ever met.

    Can you make an 11

    Who didn't rate Westwood?! Just goes to show, you don't know what you've got till it's gone and all that.

    Apparently a piece on CCFC on radio1 any time now

    It seems like a random piece, and even more so random timing, to be covered on Radio One? All I can think is that there is a Coventry fan somewhere in the top levels of management or something bigger is coming and this is the prelude? Albeit the latter is the tiny bit of optimism I have left...

    Signing announcements at 11am

    Who is the other chap in the photo i.e. not Slade or Rawson?

    Theo Wharton and Samba Diakite

    Diakite is a good player, I just worry a little about fitness and attitude. Still, that's the point of trials and I'm pleased RS is making use of that option. That's four potential signings today, which once again shows a) it can be done and b) he doesn't mess around.

    Farrend Rawson and Charles Vernam

    Really pleased with both, although it will be interesting to see who is making way CB wise, unless he's changing to three? I would be disappointed if it's Turnbull. I appreciate he's had a less than average start, but I think anyone would struggle with the players he had around/behind him. Next...

    Is Chris Anderson having a laugh?

    To me, that's one of the most concerning articles of recent times. Pinch of salt aside, it sounds as though he (well his investors) has the finances and the plan to rejuvenate a lower league club, yet he left us fairly quickly after joining with no real reason given. So, a potentially genuine...

    red bull again

    But isn't that the point - the investor would own both clubs and therefore there would be an even parity. It wouldn't be as is. I agree re the Premier league profit point, but some do. Plus a company like Red Bull could afford to run at a loss if there brand was televised worldwide in...

    red bull again

    As a basic concept it makes sense to own both - the stadium in use twice for a high number of weekends, equals twice the revenue. There's sharing of other facilities too. Plus, if we were taken over by a company willing to invest, there's lots more money to made with Coventry than Wasps...
