Yes he was one of a few Santas, he was due to do 4 nights this year as he loved it!

I was with him on Thursday, the day before he became ill. As was another member of SBT. He was absolutely fine, holding court as always, including a CCFC story or two. The initial news on Friday came as an absolute shock and it just got worse. Tom was an incredible person and helped so many...

Collins MVE Thomas Binks JDS Sheaf (6) Torp (8) Rudoni (8) Sakamoto Bassette EMC The above is harsh on Eccles, but if we play two 8’s, I’d like to see Torp and Rudoni starting as they are more creative. JDS > Bidwell based on fitness. Bassette > Simms - I’m a big Simms fan but there’s going...

I’m not disputing any of the above, all fair comments. I’m solely talking about the impression he gave yesterday, in my view.

Lampard came across well and is certainly a likeable character. He’s our manager now so we all want him to do well, but it certainly helps that he’s not an idiot. King, however, did not. When that mask slips you certainly get a glimpse of what some of those ITK’s are talking about. And I’m not...

For those of you who don’t know me, my Names Frank, for those who do, keep schtum. It’s great to be in Coventry, it really is. I recently spent a year in Everton.

If he’s clever, which he certainly appears to be, he’ll make reference and give credit to MR and all the work he’s done before him. He’ll know how bad the reaction to MR being sacked was, so he’ll want to endear himself to fans quickly.

We aren’t going down. Talk of relegation battles and the aim being to stay up is dramatic and premature. We have a good squad. We have a new coach coming in which will a) naturally galvanise the squad and b) bring new ideas. Saturday afternoon we all felt pretty good about the performance and...

A goal is coming (for us).

The goal was poor defending, but surely Collins has to save that. It wasn’t an especially hard hit.

Got to switch to 4-3-3 now with EMC and Sakamoto on the wings, Sheaf, Rudoni and Torp as the middle three.

Genuinely no offence, but I think it’s obvious.

Offensively Eccles has been poor.

Once again, if JDS gives the ball away near our own corner flag, and it leads to a direct chance, like MVE just did, he’d be slaughtered.

We all love MVE, but if JDS would have let that pass inside him a few minutes ago and then wasted two easy crosses like MVE did, he’d have been slaughtered.

Chris Iwelumo on Co comm - FGS, definitely biased. Chris Iwelumo starts speaking about how we switched players and tactics on Saturday - I take it back.

Dropping/resting/rotating Rudoni for Sakamoto is a sign of how strong our squad is. Torp plays like he did on Saturday and Sakamoto (while in a different role) like he did when he came on, and that’s an exciting duo at 10.

Also, I like Lati.

He’s massively underrated. If we want to play on the front foot, his ability to step out the defence and to pick a pass is important. He was essentially playing centre mid at times on Saturday.

Bidwell didn’t look fit at all yesterday, I really don’t think he can start. Odds on a Hannibal / Bassette confrontation at some point?!
