I think TV coverage is driving the Saturday fixtures rather than Wasps. Time will tell I guess.

just read this and thought fuck I agree with RFC! Then looked outside, bucketing it down with rain with thunder and lightening!!!

The trouble is some fans confuse being unrealistic as being positive and being realistic as being negative. Some fans also think every professional footballer has a secret desire to play for Coventry City FC and all it takes is a phone call to get them on board.

And part of Mowbery's brief is to develop the players we have, it is not all about going out and buying/acquiring a team. He has cleared the deadwood. He will want to bring in about 4 who have experience, been their done it and still have two to three years left in them. but developing the...

Yes but people overlook the fact that a lot of our goals conceded, in the last two years, come from frailties in midfield. So many of our goals come from the loss of possession in midfield.

Just before Mowbery arrived wasn't Fisher suggesting he was close to completing a land deal and an announcement was imminent? Seems to have gone quiet again with everyone building up unrealistic expectation around the arrival of Mowbrey. We won't get promotion next year, reaching the play offs...

As I have said before, the feel good factor comes down from the top. It is about an attitude of doing things right. That doesn't necessarily mean splashing loads of cash, but it is about honesty, integrity and ambition and above all respecting your customer base. in fairness, there are small...

It stops him being too comfortable, as well as giving him a chance to say I deserve better terms, I'm sure it can be extended if he is delivering.

Yes but he is better than McQuoid.

Suggestion is he was injured or not fully fit. Mowbrey may have thought he would be a good aquisition at the right price, looks like it exceeded that. From Williams point of view he can probably commute from Middlesborough to Scunthorpe without moving saving money.

If he doesn't force his way into the team through preseason friendlies he will be going out on loan. They won't want to loan him to another Championship side, also he needs guaranteed starts in the final year of his contract. This loan deal could still come off, but it won't be until after the...

In fairness I am not trying to gain mileage out of it. If I wanted to I could do a Nick and say I am just doing it to add balance. my real opinion is, it is a side show we could do without. Even if it is not coming out of our budget I don't think it will benefit us whatever the result. I am...

Yes I think he was at Middlesborough under Mowbrey.....that is actually a good shout.

As usual you miss the point.

It may not becoming out of our budget, but if the organisation is spending the money, it certainly is money that won't becoming our way.

I would agree with that, highly rated by TM...not so sure myself though?

All managers say that sort of thing. He might be a little behind fitness wise so could miss out unless he gets off to a pre season flyer. Reading probably won't want him going on loan to another club in the Championship. I think we stand a good chance of getting him on a six month loan. After...

No, to me it reads more like TM isn't prepared to pay more. Let's be honest Reda we hardly got value for money last year. You can't guarantee us a full season with your career stats.

John Eustace is a very good player and a true professional. Their is so much to like. But at 35 and coming back from a knee injury.....how much juice is left in those legs. Just a bit too old for the direction we need to go in. We need to be trying to get 2-3 years out of the players we...

The same mate. There is a big diference between one off errors in the heat of battle and persistent basic errors. It is like people slagging off young players on their debut, it is totally uncalled for. If you got the critics and jokers down the park, I bet most couldn't find the sweet spot...
