    Pivotal Sky Blue Moments

    What do you think are the pivotal moments where it all went wrong or right? Not giving Jimmy Hill the contract he wanted (10 years) Not employing Brian Clough as manager - he went to Forest instead. Selling Highfield Road. Sacking Eric Black and employing Peter Reid. Not saying Black would have...

    Club Legends

    If you read the history books, Coventry have had many illustrious players who missed the legend status as they either played too long ago, Clarrie Bourton, didn’t stay long enough or had a legendary moment. Carr and Hunts special goal and the George Hudson goal arguably the best ever in a sky...

    Club Legends

    There are legends and there are uber legends like Jimmy Hill. A man who created the Sky Blues and irrevocably changed football for good or ill. He helped to abolish the maximum wage, introduced three points for a win and I think, (but not sure), had a hand in increasing the number of clubs...

    Older or Younger?

    Age is a strange one. If you are good enough, you are old enough (McCallum). 25 is young for a keeper but could be too late for a home grown or bought outfield player who cant make the starting 11 (Allen). We got Ohare because he had not broken into the Villa team at his age. Some players mature...

    That said, I think Kasta has more chance winning the Eurovision Song Contest representing England than playing for us next season. I really hope someone is digging this out to embarrass me next year.

    Miracles sometimes happen, look at Sunderland. If every city fan makes a wish, Kasta could turn into the player we thought he was going to be...and that pig could be flying past the window.

    Mark and Adi how high can they go?

    They both have pots on them especially as they were elite athletes. Depends on your definition of fat.

    Liam Walsh

    Two defining factors for Walsh 1) Wages 2) Fitness and time to recover from injuries. If he is still the player he was at the end of our L1 loan, it is a no brainer. Probably a gamble worth taking unless we can secure the services of a better player.

    Matty James

    I thought someone said Ohare was on 10k a week. I thought we could tempt James with that amount but the wages per player link that was posted on here was scary how low our budget for each player was compared with other Championship clubs. I really hope we get James, but he has to be a gamble...

    Mark and Adi how high can they go?

    Appreciate money is the defining factor for how much any club can achieve and in some cases a little bit of luck. How far do you think we can go with the two fat managers and their back up team? Every management team has a ceiling and I would like to think they can take us to the Prem...

    Play-offs

    Someone oh here said Lincoln had some really good loan players this season. If they dont go up, any likely to interest us. Anyone know?

    Just hope Bristol City are not in for him. Someone said action man originally signed him at Leicester.

    Kaine Kesler

    I sometimes wonder if we buy them as a gamble because they were brilliant youth players ..Kastaneer and Hilssner or Norwich or Wolves recommended Jobello?

    Kaine Kesler

    Just wondered what his pedigree was. Maybe he is too good to miss on loan even though RWB is not a priority.

    Any of our players top 6 Championship material?

    I know a team can be greater than the sum of its parts but I think we have a few top 6 players, and a few potential ones. Currently I would say O'hare, Hamer, James and a fully fit Dabo. Kelly maybe. Potentially Rose even considering his poor season, maybe a fit Godden. McCallum, Osti I would...

    Kaine Kesler

    Anyone know his contract situation? On a long deal or just one year. A player just too good to miss or a false rumour?

    Overall Quality Of The Championship

    I remember Barnsley and a Brentford fan coming on here saying we were in for a shock how good the Championship is now at the start of the season, but thought we would be alright once we came to terms with it. I think the Championship is way better than when we were here last time mainly due to...
