    Yep. There is that. I’m sure there will have been players like Wilson (£2k pre new contract) who would have seen Waghorn (£12k) and thought “unfair”. I’m sure there’s huge disparity at other clubs too. From a business point of view paying him £££££ to give us a better chance of ££££££££ has...

    Give him a contract with a higher release clause on say, £60k/ week / we have option on extending another year if we get in Prem. What’s that going to cost us? Say he’s on £10k now (no idea and it doesn’t really matter) it’ll cost £50/k week extra - £2.5-£3m per year with extras. His value...

    Transfer Rumour Panzo coming back?

    I can see us getting Panzo on a perm and punting our play off revenue at McNally on a perm. BNC might be a season long loan. He’s 19 so it’s possible Arsenal want to see how he progresses in the Champ.

    Transfer Rumour Panzo coming back?

    Unless they are trying to be cryptic and Doyle / JWE staying at ” Sky Blue “ Man City and McNally and BNC and Panzo signing perm here. Probably overthinking here, but maybe CCFC social media trying to plant an Easter Egg here.

    It’s au revoir not goodbye it seems.

    Breaking News!

    Just try to placate yourself mentally with the following: What an amazing, interesting, exciting season. We follow Luton by one year during recent history. We go up next year. Growing support. Bigger budget next season due to play off windfall and bigger attendances, sponsorship etc...

    Dabo released

    Good luck and best wishes to the Guy. I posted elsewhere that I can see him going to a level 2 Dutch club like PEC Zwolle, he’s had a couple of seasons there (Netherlands) and seems friends with Gus. Maybe Gus will put a word in. If he stays in U.K. he’s going to get constant digs and...

    Breaking News!

    I think the main sore point is that we probably (I think definitely) had players we believed more suitable / capable to step up next. If Dabo was pen 8/9 and missed then I think things would be easier to come to terms with. If it was Bidwell 6, Fadz 7, Wilson 8 or whatever then it comes down...

    Breaking News!

    That 6th penalty is the most pressured. Absolutely shocked Dabo was put in the line ahead of Bidwell (a set piece taker). I said a few weeks ago that I thought Ben Wilson might be a better choice for pen 6. I guess keepers take pens against each other as part of their training - I’d back...

    Transfer Window

    It’s a credible shout. Links to Nuneaton. Free transfer. Not a huge gamble.

    Seppala and Fisher

    Maybe some kind of deal where SISU get some money on Prem promotion.

    Coventry City v Luton Town - Championship playoff final - 27th May 2023 - Wembley Stadium

    We are a year behind Luton. We go up next year. It’s that simple.

    Transfer targets

    Jodi Jones signed a 2 year contract at Notts County today. Not a huge shock.

    Saw this on the Bristol City site

    He can pay Gruff to do a song. Or Tom Grennan if he’s on half a mil a year.

    Transfer targets

    Sepp van den berg. Liverpool CB - 21 y.o. 50 games in champ for Preston 21-22 season. Now on loan in Germany. Team mate of Gus at PEC Zwolle. Might be a decent squad loanee.

    Any new weekend paper stories on us?

    I don’t like Gary Lineker and his pious views. Don’t like that folks are forced to pay a licence fee (or else) for his huge salary. As soon as he used his BBC swollen platform to spout political views he crossed a line for me. If you think the BBC isn’t politically slanted and practices “level...
