    Good to see I'm in the over 50% bracket. Cheers to all my fans out there. Despite being a supposed SISU lover, this is some achievement.

    4-4-2

    What have managers (Mowbray as well) got against this classic formation? Why have English managers sought to impose various versions of 4-5-1 on English teams and English players, particularly considering that most English players are schooled in playing 4-4-2 from a young age? It is completely...

    Cook 7 - made a couple of good saves. Caught some crosses in a crowd. Cleared it properly. He's improving Willis 7 - solid Ricketts 7 - marshalled the others well, made some good interceptions Turnbull 5 - their only chance of the first half came down his side, he was pushing too far up and...

    When did Wasps first approach CCC?

    Are they seriously still kidding us along that Wasps were not already on the scene during the 2012 negotiations for the Ricoh?

    Meanwhile whilst the CT bask in the glory of the council 'win'

    http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/greater-birmingham-consultation-blasted-inadequate-11327080 It'd be lovely if Simon could video his analysis of this with comment from Ann Lucas and George Duggins.

    Aaron Martin

    Most improved player this season by a stretch. There were some scousers behind me at the match on Saturday and they singled out what a good player he is, reads the game very well and now makes the right decisions, just need a beast to partner him next season.

    Rcc 6 - didn't really have much to do, could do nothing with goal Phillips 5 - ok in general but slipped in the build up to goal having slipped prior to that, get some decent boots Ricketts 5 - hope he's gone this summer, no example, no leadership Martin 7 - come on under Mowbray Stephens 7 - it...

    2 year plan

    If that's it then surely Mowbray can only be judged towards the end or after the 2 year period. It's been a dreadful run but we weren't expecting a genuine shot at promotion were we? Expectations have risen due to Mowbray and how he'd got us playing, it seems unfair to punish him now the reality...

    Richardson

    What's going on: http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/former-coventry-city-fc-supremo-10989495 One thing is for sure, GR is / was a very powerful man with great influence. I don't think Richardson was party to any confidentiality agreements or was he?

    Ricoh Railway Station

    http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/wasps-fans-can-use-new-10875378 Interesting quotes about attendances, LM trying to make out that is the primary reason for running the service rather than the Wasps subsidy. In this case it's probably a good idea for Wasps considering that...

    The fee

    Norwich have bought him as potential rather than the finished article (they even said so in tweets), therefore comparisons with some of the genuine finished articles that Southampton sold are invalid. Is £2.5m + really that low for somebody who has played 20 games in the third tier but has a...

    Who's next off the production line?

    As disappointing as it is, as a homeless third division club this is our reality. Develop players, sell them and use the funds to (hopefully) make wider improvements to the squad. Who is next to come through? Is Stevenson any good?

    RCC 9 - I think we've found a real gem Phillips 7 - Tried hard and great run forward that nearly led to goal Stokes 7 - Solid again Martin 7 - He's improved immeasurably Ricketts 7 - Good Morris 5 - Energetic but absolutely useless on the ball. Telegraph passes. Vincelot 6 - Tigerish but...
