Formation and starting Swanson up front were main problems tonight. The amount of times we had 8 men behind the ball was ridiculous. We desperately need some pace in the side as well.

Judging by a statement Pressley made towards the end of last week (which I can't find anywhere and am thinking I may have dreamt) I'm sure he said something to the effect that the availability of a striker he was interested in had changed and we would be pursuing this at the start of this...

This will be such a small market the telegraph article will have caused some money on the market. The Star have then probably ran a story based on the short odds with little knowledge. I am concerned that there has been no comment from pressley saying he is not interested.

The ever reliable daily star claiming Huddersfield are set to make an approach. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/394047/Huddersfield-to-make-approach-for-Coventry-boss-Steven-Pressley

I thought from this quote we have clearly enquired about him. By all accounts Swindon are pretty skint so he will be sold to someone I suspect and probably for about £500k. I am encouraged by the fact it says offers rather than offer.

This thread already highlights why I'm amazed we aren't still looking for an old head in the centre of the park. I still wouldn't be surprised to see us back in for Diagouraga before the transfer window shuts.

To be honest he would have suitors in the Championship. Some people speculated that we were in for him in January when Pressley said we after a Premier League striker on loan... but I believe it was Aaron Wilbraham. Pressley implied last week it was someone who had possibly just become...

We are no different to the majority of League 1 teams. The turnover of players even in the top teams is very high.

Billy Davies seems to have come from nowhere to 2/1. To sack a manager after one game i suspect someone has already been sounded out about the job.

Huddersfield targeted Pressley before i think. He may have actually been granted permission to speak to them i recall. For some reason i actually trust Pressley when he talks of being here for the long term project. Mind you i trusted Robins when he said the club was in his blood.

Today was a very winnable game and Bradford will be in the bottom 6. All they do is hoof it long. We couldnt cope with it last year and we couldnt cope with it this year.

I just hope the 3-5-2 isnt too radical a change for us. Im fearful this could overcomplicate things.

Any mention of waggots meeting being transfer related or any news of possible progress on bringing another striker in?

Was looking forward to him being my new 1st goalscorer bet. 14/1! Can't remember us ever having a centre back at such a short price.

I've said on other threads (particularly about McQuoid) - The top goalscorers in this league are always very hard to pick. Anyone with any level of consistency gets snapped up by a Championship team. Assombalonga is clearly the stand out striker in the league for me and could do OK in the...

Cant believe Pressley says we aneed another centre back to play this plan b 3-5-2... which im fairly sure we will end up playing every week. We need an experienced holding man in midfield. I suspect me may see Danny Pugh played here a few times.

To be honest no one in League 1 has this type of ratio. Clarke and Wilson are as good as it gets in this league.

McQuoid is still only 24 and showed glimpses of being decent. League 1 is such a funny league. The top goalscorers list will always contain a few names who have done nothing of note at other clubs. Lets hope McQuoid could be one of them.

Sounds similar to McQuoid. Seems to want to see if he can get in the Brentford side. Seeing as he got loaned out to Portsmouth last season I think it's highly possible he won't feature and may reassess his options once the season starts.

McQuoid's 34 appearance were in the League 1 promotion season for Bournemouth. In his previous season in League 1 for Bournemouth (admittedly 4 years ago) he scored 9 in 17 games. I admit I am also fearful about our lack of goals but McQuoid has shown ability in the past so lets not right him...
