    TM loses out on first target, Ricketts to sign hopefully

    Why do you think that other than they have worked together before?

    Coventry City boss Tony Mowbray not keen on flooding Ryton with triallists

    It sounds reasonable to me. He is not saying trialists cannot be successful, just they need to be selected and there is a time and a place for them. Rather than set up some lucky dip scheme.

    Winger/striker Harry Bunn might be worth a punt

    Coventry City chairman Tim Fisher misses out on bonus after Sky Blues fail to go up

    It looks like he won't be getting a bonus for finding us a new permanent home either!

    as it stands starting XI

    I think Martin is one who will improve under Mowbrey. Will be given a more compact brief, you just head and kick it away and let some of the others worry about football and distribution. if you have just one player like this in the back four, they can seem like a brick wall. It will be about...

    Micheal Doyle

    I think it says more about the lack of quality since rather than the skills of Doyle. I can't fault his endeavor and commitment but he was limited. Let's face it Paul Telfer ran around a lot, but most of it was because he never really got into the right position. We haven't missed out with...

    Coventry sign Sam Ricketts

    This is a very good signing, on the pitch, in the dressing room and out on the training pitch. Someone our youngsters can look at and see he has had a successful career, been there and done that. Perhaps he can mentor Reda Johnson, he could start by lending Johnson his pen!

    Ivor Lawton- Great Interview

    Good luck to him. It doesn't matter who we bring in, we need some of the youngsters to step up and kick on this season if we are to improve. It's a big transition from being a good prospect to claiming a shirt. Even if they can't do it week in week out we need some of the youngsters at least...

    Jose Semedo, Jermaine Johnson, Harry Winks (Loan), Darren Ambrose and Alex Revell

    But a lot have not been worth keeping. Sometimes through injury, smetimes age and ability, sometimes youth that have not progressed as hoped. Yes we will loose talent. But there is also fall out every year from the Premiership and Championship. look at the release lists most clubs have a...

    Jose Semedo, Jermaine Johnson, Harry Winks (Loan), Darren Ambrose and Alex Revell

    At this level it is all 1 and 2 year contracts. Some have options for the club to take another year. Contracts can be renewed before they run out.

    RUMOUR - Sam Ricketts To Sign Tomorrow

    I think he wants them both rather than an either or situation. Ricketts is a ready made captain with winning experience at his level and above. 2 year contract, his final contract at 33 probably. But he does come with coaching desires and some coaching attributes, which is another string to...

    RUMOUR - Sam Ricketts To Sign Tomorrow

    The poster would be sad to see him go because he feels when he plays Reda has a positive attitude.....that's how I read it.

    Not confident

    "Mr Richardson also confirmed that Wasps want to build a state of the art training and academy facility somewhere in the city in the future and hope to be able to provide more information on that towards the end of the year." it it is not the end of the year yet. Wouldn't building these...

    Jose Semedo, Jermaine Johnson, Harry Winks (Loan), Darren Ambrose and Alex Revell

    I think it could be six if he doesn't manage to retain Reda and decides Swanson isn't what he is looking for and let's him go. I think he will target experienced players who have proved they can do it in the 27 -31 year bracket. Players who can still give us 2-3 years while the youngsters...

    Not confident

    they are still talking about these plans when they have had dialogue with local rugby teams. They want training facilities and a hotel in one complex.

    Jose Semedo, Jermaine Johnson, Harry Winks (Loan), Darren Ambrose and Alex Revell

    No, he will only bring in about 4 then another 4 on loan. He will keep some dry powder for The January window. Get your head round it is about developing what we have with just a few additions....its a 2 year job minimum.
