From what I've been told, Mowbray tried to bring in Tammy Abraham after missing out on a target, then went after Sam Gallagher of Southampton after missing on Abraham. So his second and third choices both went to Championship teams. Dan Agyei came in 7 days after Gallagher joined Blackburn. Who...

Close to the 1st Team: Lawton - Could add bite in midfield but injuries have set his development back. I still like him though. Leahy - Had a positive spell at Nuneaton. Would send Page back and have him and Haynes compete for the LB spot. Ireland youth caps. A Couple More Years/U18s...

Experienced players that are currently out of contract: - Joey O'Brien - Nigel Reo-Coker - Steven Taylor - Luke Moore - Jimmy Kebe - Dean Hammond

Could be a 4-4-2 with Rose and Reid on the wings. Hopefully.

I am working today until 1am Christmas morning. Feel free to send beer and/or cookies. Merry Christmas all!

This is genuinely the most fun I've had in relation to CCFC all season. It took this forum like 30 minutes to figure out who Ruben Lameiras was in his trial game but this guy has everyone stumped.

We bid £1m for Driver and he promptly destroyed his knee then went to MLS, where he was so average that Houston Dynamo let him go. The team who's star player is Giles Barnes didn't rate him. A bullet dodged.

No Lawton or Haynes tonight. Interesting...

I thought it was a terrible interview. Jim White let TF go on a tangent too much (talking about ball boys and girls) and asked silly questions about how much money they'll spend (which League One teams just don't do). Barring the "mid-to-lower budget" part, we didn't really learn all that much -...

Don't know how believable this is, but The Sun claim we will be talking to JFH about the manager's job - https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/2382280/coventry-to-talk-jimmy-floyd-hasselbaink-back-into-management-to-save-relegation-haunted-club/

Interestingly, the scout that has been looking at this player - who is from the agency that wants to sign up said player as a client - watched the U16s game yesterday rather than the U18s, which could mean that it isn't Ngandu. (unless he didn't expect JN to play for the U18s)

Been told that Arsenal and Fulham have both made bids for an as yet unnamed CCFC U16s player. Manchester United and City also interested, but Arsenal want him the most.

Wright - 1 goal all season, flipped the bird at his own fans. Still manages to start under Mark Penus!

Sad to see that we're slowly morphing into Crewe Alexandra, a team that brings through a lot of youngsters and hovers between League One and League Two with any "success" depending on if they've sold the hottest new thing of the month out of their academy or not (see James Maddison & Nick Powell...

1720 - and all will be disappointed

My dad waxes lyrical about Tommy Hutchison any time he gets the chance. Sad that we don't get to see top quality players for a long stretch of time at CCFC anymore.

Oh my word. Some of the goals on his Instagram are ridiculous. A link for those who haven't seen - https://www.instagram.com/jonathan.ngandu/ Special shout out to this goal - Let's hope he keeps on developing. No matter how bad things get with the first team, I will always be proud of the...

If it's a 4-3-3 then I quite like that team, except for Gadzhev. If it's 3 at the back then I hate Venus and his complete refusal to see that it doesn't work.

I know you probably didn't name him on purpose, but would that be Blaine Rowe? Another name I saw recently with regards to potential England under 16s invites.

Friend in football that knows I support Cov told me that there are a few scouts at our U18s games the past few weeks. I think they were looking at Finn and Stedman. He works for an agency rather than a team, but it is still interesting to know that a few of the youngsters are being looked at in...
