    Think Grimes would be the glue if we do send out a team full of changes.

    Match Thread Millwall - Coventry City [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 26th Aug

    Complete team change for this. This is where the squad must be utilised to good effect. Don't care for this mickey mouse competition, it always gets in the way of what we should be focused on. Those playing need to make a statement for a first 11 starting place. I also expect Milwall will be all...

    Stadium update

    This is fantastic news. Never saw this coming. So I'm assuming it's the lease for 150 years or whatever it was? If so then that comes with the ownership of the 'whole' stadium complex including casino etc. I expect the hotel is leased out, so assume wecontrol that and earn from it. The casino...

    Derby Player Ratings

    True, but watching them seems like they are suffering from post trauma of missing out on what they thought would be automatic promotion and then at least win the playoff's. They look all over the place. I'm sure they will improve but momentum is always with the sides that start well. Those that...

    Derby Player Ratings

    It's no surprise Torp's quality is there for all to see. He has a great shot on him, and will pop up with goals. Sheaf not anywhere near that quality and should be sold. Wright still getting up to speed. Rudoni had a quiet game by his standards but others stepped up. That's the sign of a good...

    Bobby Thomas to Sheff Utd ?

    So our much settled squad built up well and no loanees acheive the playoff's and narowly miss out. So lets start selling our best players, bring some loans and disrupt evrything? Thomas is a good CH who has an eye for goal. Big loss if he goes. *m would be the minimum surely? Are these...

    Would you sell Rudoni?

    You have to sell. Bid 12m for Hamer on the back of it and use 8m to strengthen. Football is a funny old game. You can't aford at this level to wait and potentially risk injury etc. 20m now and 10% sell on would be very good business. I'm sure frank could tap up Chelsea for a midfielder on loan...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 12th Aug

    Simms starts for me. Change of style with the big man up front and see how that changes our approach. This is a game for trying stuff out and giving one or two squad players some time including match fitness for Wright who should come on at some point. We don't want to slip up here and start...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Saturday 9th Aug

    Overall play was at times very good but we had no answer to Hull's block and without a CF like Simms we were never going to get much from crosses. The ball didn't drop for us in the box on a number of ocassions but that's what you make of it. We need stronger attitude up front and...

    This is frustrating but credit Hull, atm they deserve a point. We just lacking in crativity in the box. Heaven knows why Simms isn't on down the middle with the amount of crosses?

    How well will Wrexham and Birmingham do?

    I think Brum might do quite well but promotion? No. Somewhere around 8th/10th . This league is very hard. Wrexham, be lucky to survive. The bubble will burst and Hollywood will depart fruitless. I don't think there is a single team who look like being a runaway leader. Top 6 will be chopping...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Saturday 9th Aug

    The important thing here is to get a good start to the season, unlike the last couple. We have enough squad talent to make a true challenge. A few early wins under our belt and we could be in the mix early on and with confidence growing could be our year. But it will not be based on this first...

    Next Season's Championship - Where Do We Stand?

    I think for once the conventional wisdom is wrong. I can't see Ipswich and Southampton doing that well tbh. As for Ipswich...look at Luton? I think Top 6 would be achieved for them with Sheffield Utd who may not have it in them next season. Birmingham will be mid table, they won't be doing an...

    So where does hamer go now?

    TBF I'm glad Sunderland made it after killing us with a last second goal they did it again. Sometimes its just in the stars. See them coming straight down though. O'Hare lost his gamble and not sure if any Prem teams want him.

    The morning after...

    Look everybody, it was a great header in the dying seconds and we didn't defend it well. That's football. They looked beaten and then that happens from a player determined to try and make a difference, and he did. It's our own fault for failing to take our chances. There were enough to suggest...

    I'm pretty confident of a win in the 90 minutes. Then we enter the nervy 'who dares wins' period, and failing that the lottery.
