The wages is a difficult balancing act. The majority of our squad came up from League 1 and their wages would be League 1 wages. The players signed last summer will be on better wages and you'd imagine O'Hare, Hamer and Walker would be the top earners. To take the club forward as our revenue...

Rose and Hyam getting covid will have been a factor in bringing Cranie in I suspect as he will have been an extra body even in training. Loads of quality loans will only start to happen from now on now full Premier League squads are returning, and once a couple of the big transfers go through...

Pleased with this. Hope to see us loan a few others out in League 1 and 2. Drysdale and Ngandu again, Bapaga, Tavares maybe Reid if we get another left back.

Doesn't look too bad but you'd have thought the word Arena is unnecessary. Let alone make it twice as big as the actual sponsors name!

Interesting. The long term target you think @Skybluebeliever? I always felt Cranie and Souare were fall back options if the main targets fell through.

There is a long, long way to go in this window. Once the Premier League teams start to loosen the purse strings I can see some top Championship teams testing our resolve for Hamer and O'Hare.

This was the link. Doesn't explicitly say we were one of the teams who a loan deal fell through but mentions us in the article...

Been trying to find the link from last year before he went to Watford. It was reported either at our end or the United end that he was very close to coming here.

Robins keeping cards close to his chest. Notice Clarke Salter was only brought on for the final five mins for Chelsea today. https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/transfer-news/coventry-city-transfers-mark-robins-21199502

Watched online today but personally wouldn't be in a hurry to offer contracts to either of the trialists. Although was always going to be a horrible afternoon for Cranie against Traore.

Sheaf had a very good half. Hamer also sharp but trying to do too much sometimes. Viktor looks like he has an extra yard of pace from last year. One criticism, thus far we have only had one man in the box in some attacks. Overall very encouraging thus far.

Leon Clarke turning out for Gloucester City against our u23's this afternoon apparently.

Reportedly he asked Middlesbrough for the trial rather than the other way round. Has struggled with injuries during his trial and it sounds far from a given he will get a contract (although Middlesbrough have a few injured which could help him). Personally think Paterson is the type of...

Inevitably the case as we go up the league. Harder to do deals without agents leaking to press.

If it is Clarke Salter he has a year left on his contract. Could it be with a view to a permanent deal similar to Sheaf's last summer?

Noticed this on one of the videos earlier. Our badge is now the same size as Wasps and also looks like it has the lighting above and below like Wasps logo...

Time will tell. Just my opinion. He's been with the club two years and aside from a couple of 20mim cameos towards the end of last year I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise. To state the obvious, he needs to go somewhere, stay fit and play. I can't see that being here.

Unfortunately he doesn't look capable of forging a career I don't think. Spends too long on the treatment table and hasn't got the concentration to play 90mins in my opinion.

The ticket sales from our end are currently a little underwhelming. I thought the club would have been pushing this hard. They've pushed the Wolves game more!

We are scheduled to take an XI to Nuneaton on Tuesday. Suspect this will be a lot stronger side than originally planned.
