    2-2 - our wobbly defence is compensated for by a couple of good goals innitiated by Giles.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    I'm with Covboy and Monkey. There was nothing to be lost by saying nothing, least of all now when getting to Brum is not an issue because it doesn't matter where we play, nobody is going. If anything the closure of grounds makes it easier for SISU in the short term - takes the pressure off. I...

    Disregard Forest's position. They have good players and now have a decent manager. They must fancy a change in their fortunes against a newly promoted club like us. This is like the Bristol game, we must be able to show we can go toe to toe with a good club away from home. It's a bit of a free...

    Hilsner

    Either way they cost pennies compared to Hamer, so the point remains that In terms of our buying policy they count as being in different parts of the strategy. Hamer was earmarked as a direct replacement for our best player last year, the others were punts at squad players and accordingly cheap.

    Hilsner

    Hamer cost serious money, that is why he is the exception and Dabo was down to the Chelsea link so not in the same category. The others were out of contract I believe. I think as a plan it was worth a punt, but appears to be too risky for us. Kastaneer ?? Hilsner ?? Jobello - maybe but the odds...

    If Robins is true to past form, the side will be unchanged. The possible changes have been listed above and are, to me at least, in the follolowing order of liklihood O'Hare or Kelly for Shipley MacCallum for Dabo Walker for Biamou We concede too many goals, even though it was our defence...

    Mark Robins... One of coventrys greatest ever managers

    To achieve what Robins' has with the resouces at his disposal in the competitive environment of today has been near miraculous. In many ways Hill had it so much easier, Coventry was a boom town and the financial factor was much less dominating. He also chickened out of the biggest challenge...

    10 Thoughts from the Sofa 1. If Marosi had conceded our 2nd or 3rd we would be pretty miffed. Especially the third. We relied on poor goalkkeping aginst QPR as well 2. When Sheaf plays well the team plays well - early Swansea and yesterday. Get off his back. It's not his fault he is not Walsh...

    Match Thread Blackburn

    Unless it is a potentially one-sided game, I think my prediction every match is going to be 1-1. Remembering my school maths, I am guessing that is the mode result; the most frequent. But it is a coward's prediction. I'd love O'Hare to score with a close range header....
