    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    Think our injuries have caught up with us regarding promotion, (with the proviso that I am always wrong). The 11 playing must be 100% fit. We cannot risk losing further players to injury (see Torp). Best 11 we can field, as I expect us to lose to West Brom (see above proviso).

    Transfer Rumour Summer 2024

    Moore will go. Doubt we will buy another goalie unless it is a development player. Think COH is 80% likely to go. Will be a big miss and the hardest player to replace. Mason-Clarke looks awesome in L1. Fingers crossed he doesn't get injured. I would go for McCallum out of contract. He was...

    Maidstone Tickets

    Said before, was surprised we have a better average gate than WBA this season. Does that make us a bigger club? There was a question on who was the biggest Midlands club in order Villa, Wolves, WBA, Blues and us. Appears we are third and rising. MR has got it spot on. Incremental improvements in...

    CCFC 10 years from now...

    Things change very quickly in football. Completely depends on ownership, the management team and luck. Good ownership and a class management team means an upward trajectory. I really have never thought we had a ceiling, as we have such an enormous catchment area. Surprised to read our gates are...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Friday 23rd Feb

    My reply button is playing up for some reason. Hands up if I'm wrong but pretty sure MR said King was in charge of recruitment now on two occasions. Sure some nerd on here will search out the exact words to prove this one way or another. Sometimes (like all of us) I get things wrong, but don't...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Friday 23rd Feb

    Think you will find that MR said King had taken over the recruitment side of things. MR expresses his opinion but King and the recruitment team make the decisions. Not speculation when MR has said it as fact.

    About as much chance as Leicester ever winning the Prem...oh hang on

    Win promotion or the FA Cup ?

    We always seem to be one year behind Luton. Dare to dream.

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    Think Simms is going to get incrementally better as our brilliant training staff improve every aspect of his game. It will take time, but we rarely mess up on player development. Stick with the process. Simms will tear you apart again.

    Uber for Matt?

    I thought there was a small light at the end of the tunnel for Godden against Plymouth. In recent games he has looked anonymous and out of sorts. Against Plymouth, he missed two sitters but he was there to miss them which hasn't happened lately. We need a better Godden for the run in. I appear...

    Uber for Matt?

    I,ve said it before, Matty for some reason has lost his mojo but that doesn't mean he won't get it back. Missing 3 out of his last 4 penalties is not the player who never missed but it is also not indicative of getting too old. Never had great pace, his brilliance was his speed of thought and...

    Transfer targets

    Think we should sign the Peterborough scout who keeps buying players for under 200k then selling them for over 5 million, or follow him around.

    Centre forward problem

    When MR said it was King who now sorts the transfers, I think he specifically mentioned Simms as a King buy. Wonder if that was deliberate? Think we are adapting Simms to our style of play rather than playing to his strengths. I would say MR bought a few duds; be interesting to see how many of...

    Norwich Ratings

    I thought we were ok today but for two glaring misses by Wright and Palmer. Thought the ref was good apart from two major errors. He should have given play on when O'Hare was fouled and we were bearing down on goal. How do refs not see a deliberate attempt to stop the better players by...

    Simms

    Simms looks cumbersome which does not help people's view of him. Needs to use his size better and bully centre backs. Didn't look great against Wednesday away but won the ball on the press where Godden should have scored. Stone wall penalty when he was barged in the back. Think he set up Allen...

    Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Jan

    No excuse for racist gestures or chants. Think Palmer should leave the wind ups of the opposition fans and prove to be better than them. Ignore the fools. Football fans will always hate certain players. If it's just banter, best policy is to smile at them and stick the ball in the net. Racism...
