    They are, but we are good on the break - like the second goal. As others have said in the past that means we are suited to away games but not so much at home when we are expected to press and dominate. Plymouth's defence is a leaky as one of Francis Drake's old boats. With Hardie and Whittaker...

    I think I was at a different game to some of you.... I thought it was an average performance with a few bright spots. Had we scored at the start, it could have been different. 1. Robins' selection almost cost us the game. Three of the back four have not been regular starters and Da Silva in...

    Collins - All those nervy kick outs that barely reach half way...He should be replaced as a high priority next season.

    ...but minus two key players in Sheaf & Kitching, and two strikers who are misfiring, Godden & Simms.

    He played Lati, Eccles and O'Hare against Bristol. Not trusting his fitness he brought Torp on later. Playing Lati totally in line with MR's 'safety first' approach. Hope to be proved overly gloomy

    After Bristol, If Lati plays in midfield I will be very disappointed. But sadly I expect he will. I would have Vik, Josh and Callum myself It is commonly being said that Saka needs a rest. I just wonder if teams have done their homework in advance and have worked out what he does. What we are...

    We will need to have 12 players on the pitch if so

    Callum contract offer

    It seems to me Callum has always put quite a high priority on getting game time but also to play at as high a standard as possible - choosing us over Villa, and opting to leave now. So his options at the end of the season are 1. Any club in the Prem, even newly promoted ones - he leaves. Fool...

    2nd Question Given a hypothetical choice of Hamer, Callum, Sheaf, Torp (in say 6 months time), Allen, Eccles and Palmer, what is the ideal midfield three? Curiously, I venture O'Hare, Hamer and Sheaf It's going to be EMC, Sheaf and Torp

    Two questions, here is the first. Of the four goals, would we have been unhappy to have them scored against us? I venture Wright (unmarked free header) and Palmer (not closed down) would have made this blog a bit cross. Palmer's pass to O'Hare was exquisite but even so I suspect should not...

    Is Palmer a 'flat track bully"? Flatters against weak opposition only to deceive against the better teams?

    Reflections on the January Window

    1. After 400 pages of comments nobody spotted either of the two new players or the departure of Fadz to another Championship club. Is that the best effort the best pundits in Coventry can do? 2. Not noticing Torp was understandable. Who'd heard of him? But he does fit totally with the model of...

    Transfer Rumour Ephron Mason-Clark

    O'Hare has actually managed his career quite well. He wants to play 1st team football at the highest level he can. He opts out of Villa for a struggling Championship club, for a number of reasons, but getting regular 1st team must have been the biggest. He could have languished for at least 2...

    Transfer Rumour Ephron Mason-Clark

    Mason-Clark has not been bought to be squad, surely. He replaces Palmer in your set up. For those forever moaners, this is unbelievably strong compared with previous years in the Championship. There have been times during the summer in the recent past that we have needed 5,6 or even 7 new...

    Deadline day Feb 2024

    Nothing. Other clubs know we have money but City are unprepared to do deals that make no commercial sense, even if we want the player.
