    Match Thread Coventry v Oldham Match Thread - Saturday 17th Sep

    Didn't go to game. Listening to commentary was grim: poor Geoff Foster sounded in need of Prozac.

    Look on the bright side, we're only 3 points away from safety...!

    He has to go

    Let's give him the dozen games he asked for before looking at the league table seriously. If, by then, even with Jodi Jones fully (relatively?) fit, we are not creating enough chances in games, then reluctantly I think we might need to consider a change of manager. I like TM a lot, but I have...

    "We should sign Reuben Reid" (Seem to read that comment on here all the time!)

    William Edjenguele

    To be fair, playing alongside those two was a hell of a handicap! Fairly strong defender, but could get turned very easily. He could be ok against a physical striker, but against anyone with pace, he has no chance.

    Signing announcement shortly

    Just the way to lift the fans after a 6-1 defeat, get Bigi back!! Saw this coming a mile off... actually, could benefit us if he plays defensive mid & Gadshev plays further forward. Gadshev seems to be happier further up the pitch (plus he's less likely to give penalties away then...) Still...

    Rose out injured for 'weeks, if not months'

    Wonder if this means TM will change his mind over Kane Smith? My impression was that he seemed to rate him, but thought we needed players in other positions more urgently. That may have changed. TM probably doesn't want to risk DKE as a starter (not physical enough) and Willis seems more...

    Rose out injured for 'weeks, if not months'

    Really bad news for us as he is one of the few players who offers a goal threat! TM says that recent injuries mean we 'may have to adjust our targets' - am hoping that doesn't mean we end up with the equivalent of Hunt, Henderson and Ramage as quick stop-gap solutions... Lets hope the knock...

    Match Thread Bradford v Coventry Match Thread - Saturday 20th Aug

    I only listened to the game, but it seemed to me that Gadshev should have been the one to come off, not Agyei However, that wouldn't have stopped Turnbull conceding the penalty etc. etc.

    Why no Spence on the bench? Is he injured too - if not, he must feel very hard done by...

    Next In

    Would be pleased if it was Kevin Long, but it's unlikely as there's Championship interest (Bristol City had a bid turned down, might try to loan him instead)

    Think we'll battle out a 1-1 draw, probably score from a set piece

    McBean deal next week

    Done deal: 5 month international loan - edit - according to NewsNow site, but CCFC website says 'page does not exist' Hopefully just a technical glitch and we have signed him...

    3 League Games 0 Goals

    Things aren't great, but I'm still very glad we have Mowbray in charge: he is far more likely to be able to pull off decent loan signings late in the transfer window than many other L1 managers. I think back to when we rushed out and bought Malaga and Edjenguele... Shudder... All too easy to go...

    Could be worse

    Back on topic, Hussey is a weird one: can be excellent going forward from deep and has got a great set piece delivery, but seems to forget to defend at all...

    Could be worse

    Like a couple of others here, I was relieved we got a point last night (yes, I know how desperate that is, especially since we thrashed them 6-0 last time) Some will look at us signing Turnbull and moan that we're not signing an attacker, but actually we do need a player like him badly...

    Jones needs to be rested

    Good point Cerio - in fact I think that is a better idea than relying on Spence to produce an end product...

    Jones needs to be rested

    Know it's only 3 games in, but opposition seem to realise that kicking him out of the game stops our main attacking threat. Concerned that he could pick up a serious injury (he was limping again last night) if we persist with him. Not ideal - we are very toothless without him. Desperate times...
