We've needed a decent target man all season. For me it was clear fairly early on that Biamou, at least for this season, would not be the answer but I suspect that Robins gambled on him coming good.

Can't blame Burge or the defence. We have scored 28 goals this season in the league. Cambridge are the lowest scoring team with 25, only three fewer than us. Forest Green Rovers and Barnet, the bottom two, have scored 26 goals. It's clear what the problem is.

A good piece today in The Observer, written by Daniel Taylor, Sports Journalust of the Year. Its title is 'SISU elephant still in the room at Coventry'. He concludes (rightly) that SISU's tenure has been a shambles and given that SISU do not seem concerned about finding a way out he wonders what...

Burge 5 Grimmer 5 Haynes 5 Willis 7 (looked a class above today, he could leave in January) McDonald 5 (not suited to a back 3, distribution can be poor) Davies 5 Doyle 7 Shipley 6 McNulty 6 Beavon 6 Nazon 4 Subs Stevenson 6 (on the way back, will be key to the rest of our season) Ponticelli 4...

Never the mind the sell on clause,SISU will pocket that. Just pleased that at a time when Coventry's youngsters have so little to cheer football wise that they could see one of their own go right to the top.

We need a big lump of a target man proven at League Two level. I thought this in the summer and he never arrived. Micky Adams made a very telling comment today in his closing remarks on CWR in that he thinks we lack physicality in the opposition's penalty area, he said there were a lot of...

I thought the crowd turned on the team far too quickly tonight. We didn't play well but we have no right to beat Forest Green Rovers just because we once spent 30 plus years in the top flight and are a 'big' club in League Two. What good comes of booing Biamou? If you can't handle where we are...

He played there for Sheffield United. We need to get the best out of McNulty, techically he is one of our better players. Playing wide right will also take the pressure off from him in front of goal, where he's struggling.

I think Andreu's injury was a big blow. Robins tried to play it down at the time but he possibly is a player at League 2 level with that little bit of creative spark we are missing. I don't think the strikers are to blame, we're just not creating enough. Doyle and Kelly look to be the same...

Agree Stokes is playing nowhere near as well as he was before his injury. At fault for their second goal yesterday I thought. Hopefully he can regain his old form.

If we get out of this league it will be precisely because Robins has decided that grinding out 1-0s is the way to go. You can't play great football with technically limited players-ask Tony Mowbray.

6,851 for a Saturday home league game. We had an average home attendance for league games of 19,000 in the season SISU arrived.

Doyle and Kelly look as if they do the same role to me and I think the midfield is too deep if they both play. If they are both going to play we need a target man up front. Worried about McNulty, as things stand I can't see where the goals will come from.

And can anyone name the Burnley player? He had a spell as manager of Wales.

Correct, based in Lurgan in NI. Jon Tuffey (ex City reserves) was in goal for them last season.

Never rated Bigi I'm afraid. He can make 10 yard sideways passes deep in our own half but for me that's about it.

Paul Edwards, he came from Crewe Alexandra. He looked a bit like Shaggy from Scooby Doo. Shaggy was probably a better defender...

This is good news. Hoffman has some backers with some serious cash behind them.

I wouldn't sign for £500 a week either
