    Championship thread 23/24

    Not denying he has done a good job but they spent an absolute fortune at League 1. Particularly the summer Chaplin moved there I think they signed over 20 players. They have been been bankrolled like a Championship club for 2-3 years.

    Ohare contract

    Very easy to say in hindsight. He didn't look quick enough, strong enough or good enough when he was here. Was staggering we made a profit on him. Don't think Barnsley fans were too bothered about selling him either.

    Ohare contract

    Someone mentioned to me a couple of weeks back they'd heard Leeds want him.

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    This will be my final comment on him as I get too angry... But the price I'd sell at is a difficult one. Based on what I've seen and if we had signed him on a free transfer, and someone said tomorrow you could sell him for £1m... I would absolutely snap someone's hand off.

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    Wouldn't be the worst approach. My main anger isn't actually towards Wright (who comes across as a nice enough, quiet bloke) it is more towards Dean Austin and his colleagues. The due diligence on this signing just seems to have been completely negligent.

    What Do We Need To Change?

    In my opinion the current formation only really worked because of Vik and Hamer. We basically play with 7 defensive players now. In an old 4-4-2 you'd have pretty much had 5 attacking players in a side. I don't see the need to play two defensive midfielders every game... And an extra centre...

    Recruitment has been shocking

    I looked to place a first goalscorer bet on Sat at Bristol with Sky Bet after the side had been announced. Simms and Godden were 5/1. The next name on the list was 18/1. The bookies couldn't even make a case for any of our other positions scoring.

    Transfer Rumour Yasin Ayari

    Looks slow, weak and naive. Technically has ability and will probably be a good player in the future but looks like he should be learning his trade at a lower level in my opinion.

    Recruitment has been shocking

    Liked the look of Binks early on. Think I'd like to see Kitching start every game now.

    Recruitment has been shocking

    We need to actually start doing a few character checks on signings as well. Get a few leaders in. I actually can't believe how shit we are considering how much we have spent.

    Well stop playing 7 defenders every game and expecting us to pose a threat.

    Match Thread Rotherham United FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 25th Oct

    Godden hasn't played well the last few games but tarnishing him with the same brush as the other two is undeserved. He at least has some movement about him. I get angrier by the game at what we have spent on Wright. I actually mean this when I say he honestly looks like he's never played the...

    Match Thread Rotherham United FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 25th Oct

    Really don't know where to start. Unfortunately it was wholly predictable. The formation is awful and reminds me of the season we first went up but with worse players. Absolutely nothing going forward. I was pleased when we signed Simms but he looks every bit as shit as Wright. I would freeze...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    Think there was a few... Kevin Long from Burnley, Kelvin Wilson who was an absolute crock and then we ended up desperately scrambling round to sign a random Finnish crock Juhani Ojala or something.

    Suspect there will be clubs at a higher level looking at him again. He's been excellent

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    He occasionally looks quite fast over the first 5-10 yards but then doesn't seem to be able to sustain the speed. Not sure if this is down to stamina or something else. Never looks like getting away from his defender.

    Match Thread Rotherham United FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 25th Oct

    If we lose this the knives will really be out. If we carrying on playing the same system with the same personnel I fear for us the next few weeks. Hoping Allen and O'Hare can add a different dynamic.

    The ones who got away

    Seem to recall on him on the back of the Telegraph holding the number 9 shirt. For once our medical team actually did their job. Failed his medical then shortly afterwards did his ACL I think.

    Suspect the fact setback is in inverted commas means it was something which has also been overcome. Think Andy Turner quoted the article as 'Robins keeps people guessing'. Basically sounds like Sheaf is fit to me!
