If he won't engage on those terms or something akin to, then I would be reluctant. If people think we would be lucky to have him I suggest they need to look at the influence he has been having recently. Ability alone does not make a player effective or more importantly a good teammate.

If and it's a big if MR thinks the Nigerian Ravel Morrison is worth a gamble on we need to have a water tight contract with break clauses for specific disciplinary occurrences. This way we can easily give notice and off he goes. We seem to have a great dressing room and unless the likes of...

He was indeed and I am not sure why you think I was touting him as a signing!! Austria had some decent players and a few vs Scotland today looked lively and are not at the highest level yet. Frostie makes a fair point on post Brexit rules.

We should be scouting at this level of player. There are a number of lesser known nations that are worth scouting. Turkey had a LWB I think who plays 2nd tier French football.

I am sure on another thread somewhere fans are complaining they miss highfield road. Urban stadiums while harder to police are much nicer as they are embedded in the community not a patch if land in the outskirts of the city.

Great knowladge how many times have you seen Yuta Nakayama play? Japan have been improving defensively in recent years and have a half decent defender who plays for the national team at Southampton too. LCB with ability to improvecould be a shrewd investment

Your a bit sensitive? I am not being critical of anyone specifically I was suggesting in relation to a earlier post that to go from an avid fan to not even watching when we are on TV is a big switch. That was the context of the comment. With regards to family and the wife. In my view if you...

Wow so they went from being fans of the club and attending games now and again to i can't be bothered to watch them for free!!? What they into now train spotting, drugs or they family aka the wife comes first types? Separately we do need to get into the community more and make sure the...

Max has divided our fan base into 3 parts. Those who rated him, those who didn't and those who hated him. He is gone and we all need to move on.

Cheltenham just won L2 and nearly beat Man City in the FA cup leading 1-0 until about 80 mins. Gloucestershire have two half decent teams but Cheltenham with a population of 120,000 and growing probably is the bigger club atm.

https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/coventry-city-season-player-ratings-20635127 Your right about there being a high percentage who feel on his performances that Sheaf made a modest contribution to the season. By footballing brains I was suggesting that When it...

Frostie, I don't not rate the potential Sheaf has. Looks a decent player in some aspects of his game. For me Kelly has a bigger overall impact on the way we play atm and I don't think it is too bigger coincidence our form dipped when he was injured. One player however has peaked one is still...

I think that point lacks credibility on a few levels and shows how stats only tell half a story. 1. COH and Hammer both played more mins. 2. Matty James who was brought in half way through the season was not far off Sheaf come the end of the season. 3. Kelly had a poor season through injury...

Denialism? I do not follow. I am simply saying if the club are compelled to sign a player who has potential but struggled to make an impact this season. We could loan him to help accelerate his development. My comment is based on the assumption we want to push on next season and in my view...

I am not close to the details. Is your understanding that there was no break clause, relegation aside? Even if we are compelled to sign BS there would be nothing stopping us loaning him to a top end L1 club as long as they covered his wages?

Just a hunch but I would imagine a game of poker is currently being played behind the scenes. Walsh like COH enjoyed his time here winning the league. COH was on a free and we took him, Walsh wasn't. I am confident he was spoken to in detail about future opportunities. I think Osti and James...

Not saying i want it to happen but does anyone think Sheaf has the potential to transition like Eric Dier has at Tottenham from DCM to a place in the back three?

Sheaf might not be coming back. Shippley I suspect will move on as will Allen. If that happens we have enough room for Walsh, my concern would be both he and Kelly have concerning sickness records. On this basis I suspect we will keep Shippers as he can play LWB in an extreme emergency.

I was not quite as surprised by the news as some given his acute lack of game time and impact on the overall season. Clearly has scope to improve and I can only assume Robins feels he can use the budget in better ways? Perhaps on James no doubt high wages or maybe to bring in a top quility...

If anyone on here has the skillset and thinks they could add value to the club by being in the role please do apply. There is a lot to be said for making your passion your job. This is a growing area in the sport if you have an eye for detail and know what your looking for. Remeber a salary is a...
