    Why is it odd ? I’ve watched the FA Cup final for decades I don’t ever recall seeing rows of ex players from decades ago watching … the odd high profile ex player but not entire teams ! I would have been surprised if they had of invited them ….

    Next years budget

    Oh and by the way Forest season tickets have gone up from £500+ in the championship to £850 next season. We may not like it but the more success you have the more it costs everyone. The only beneficiaries are the players and their agents.

    Next years budget

    Fans make you laugh …. Why isn’t king putting millions in ? Why bother buying the club ? And then in the same breath Why are season tickets going up ? Why are end of season awards nights going up ? Fans spend other peoples money more freely than they spend their own …..

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    I’d play MVE at right back to help deal with United pace on the counter but also because United have been playing Wan-Bissaka at left back who I think will cope with MVE’s best asset, his pace. IF Hadji and Simms are on form they could trouble the United defensive left hand side….

    My point is not that we should sign Palmer etc it’s that the way he plays that role is what an effective 10 does. Clearly a top championship 10 would still be miles below Palmer but they would score, create, run past the forwards etc etc …. Neither of ours do

    That’s not my point but I recognise there were probably too many words for you to take it all in.

    For those arguing that COH or Palmer are very effective 10’s do yourself a favour and watch Cole Palmer playing for Chelsea. Scoring goals, running beyond the strikers, creating chances …. That’s what a 10 does. Not safe 5 yard passes on the half way line or beating 2 players but losing it to...

    Match Thread Birmingham City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 13th Apr

    Should give some perspective for the rabid Cov fans out for player blood ….. it’s happening in all the leagues ….

    I don’t disagree … it should improve your chances but the stats don’t lie … it’s not made any difference so far to our relative position

    I think Hull are the team that have adopted this model this season followed by Ipsw In January they were 2 points ahead of us. They invested heavily on loans and today are …. 2 points ahead of us ! Ipsw also have invested in quality loans. They were top or second in January and brought in 2...

    I don’t disagree with that but isolating 2 players when the whole team played equally poorly seems a little odd.

    Torp or Hamer?

    Torp is our best midfield player on the ball. He is also our best passer of a ball. He was our best player in our first few matches but he was really poor yesterday. A full pre season, more time to adjust to the pace and physicality of this league, and he will be fine.

    Perspective

    I don’t want to go back to having 3 or 4 unproven loans at the club but 1 or 2 very good proven players can be beneficial. I think we have seen the difference that loans have made to Ipsw and Hull from the January window. The issue is that these players are expensive to loan ( loan fee/ wages )...

    I think the fact we didn’t make him see out the season was a little odd. Maybe we couldn’t because he worked his full notice ???

    Perspective

    With our level of summer investment I think we should have made the play offs if I’m honest but the settling in period took too long, not helped by Robins persisting with a formation that wasn’t working and not giving Simms enough minutes to find any form or confidence. However I have much...

    I haven’t seen a single post saying the players deliberately didn’t try yesterday. What I have seen are comments saying the players may have sub consciously had one eye on next weekend and that was part of the problem.
