    Ex Player Watch

    There’s one of our travelling fans who looked so like him as a young kid in his playing days - and who continues to do so (complete w facial hair and mpb) that I actually thought it was him on occasions (the last being Blackpool away but Banbury had a game at the same time). Might be related I...

    International duty

    Against us. Roy Carroll for Notts Co, after returning from Romania. https://metro.co.uk/2014/11/16/former-manchester-united-goalkeeper-roy-carroll-plays-two-games-in-less-than-24-hours-4950241/amp/ A return from Bucharest is different to a transatlantic flight however.

    Evan Ferguson

    Me neither but as I say much of the Irish media (still sore about losing Rice and Grealish who they thought had chosen Ireland) making it a story ahead of the next internationals. Apparently the convention is he can swap if he plays no more than 3 times for the senior squad. I suspect it’s a...

    Evan Ferguson

    Son of ex Cov youth defender Barry Ferguson. His mum is English. His parents met in Cov. Apparently much of the Irish media is concerned that he could still be poached by England before he plays a fourth senior international game for the Republic of Ireland.

    Record signing top 10

    Yep. Whelan (Dec ‘95) came in months before McAllister (after Euro96).

    Record signing top 10

    We got him for a pittance from Dumbarton. Sold him for £1m to Forest when he flopped badly.

    Transfer targets

    We also had two superstars last season who never missed a game through injury (Gyökeres had a cold once; and Hamer got suspended). Our midfield that consists of Sheaf, Eccles, Kelly, Palmer, O’ Hare and Allen looks weaker if only because all of them have poor records of keeping fit - and a...

    Transfer Rumour David Brekalo

    Brekalo does seem like a fantastic bloke: Given this interview to Norwegian press today “ David Brekalo about staying: - I'm even hungrier now No signs of disappointment at not being sold - David Brekalo emphasizes that he is very keen on the autumn Viking is ahead..”

    Transfer targets

    Yep. You could say he vindicated the policy as he demonstrated a recovery from his knee injury and played for Reading, Bolton etc after leaving us. Hartson too proved his fitness with us after we could initially get insurance for his move from Wimbledon until it was too late to save our season

    Salako too. Allegedly.

    Transfer Rumour David Brekalo

    Hmm but two days ago they were boasting of having turned down bids from Mityyland. Seems to me it’s easy to disbelieve everything that comes out of our club and believe everything that is said by others.

    Quiz : First and Lasts of Coventry City

    Birchall was bought after the tournament- rather like Paul Hall after France ‘98!
