    Match Thread Coventry City - Newport County Match Thread - Saturday 19th Aug

    Don't think it will be as easy as everyone makes out, think we will be pushed hard, but never the less I am looking forward o the game.

    Nope, not pre-fitness tests. It's simply 2 2.4km runs one after the other with a 1 minute break in between in around 11 mins for each run (dependent on age slightly less or more) When you pass out as a marine that's a different story! Different standards then

    Coutinho

    Asensio isn't really a proven talent yet though, decent prospect but not somebody who could come in and replace what Coutinho brings to that team. I think Barca will go up to 110 Million. I think the market is just a bit too mental right now. If you had said that price for Coutinho a month ago I...

    Visiting a Doctor.

    You say that but some doctors do seem like they make it up. I had a toe infection in September last year, the initial prescription worked fine, and it went away, but then suddenly came back, 2 days later, I went in, saw another doctor who said it just needed squeezing out, this was done, by...

    Coutinho

    Would be stupid for them to sell, there is no time for them to get in an adequate replacement, and i'm not sure there even is one at least not for a sensible price?

    World Athletics Championship

    I must add that Mo Farah is an absolute beast and the other men that run the 5k as well. I never realised just how fast they really ran, but when you consider the fact that Royal Marines are required to run 2.4KM, in the time it takes Mo to run 5Km it shows you how fit these men really are.

    Things that annoy you

    Exactly, I don't mind if they are going to see family, and tbh there was one really cute baby, in front of us, who was good as gold, and cried once when the plane was descending. Sadly also had a little shit of a baby behind who screamed every time he didn;t have attention.

    Things that annoy you

    Bloody babies on long haul flights... I have no problem with people going on holidays with kids, but why would you take your 6 month old baby to Thailand, on 3 of my 4 flights too and from Thailand, I had babies crying for the majority of the flight . Why do that to your baby at such a young...

    Jordan Willis... would you keep or sell??

    He played 46 games last season? Year before he got unlucky with one bad injury. Year before that he played 40 games? What a stupid comment.

    Match Thread Grimsby Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 12th Aug

    Good reffing for the goal from mcnulty. As has been said he had gone to take the free kick already, but changed his mind when nothing was on, so it was his own fault for passing it back. Good reaction by Mcnulty. Good ball in for the corner as will for Grimmers goal.

    Jordan Willis... would you keep or sell??

    Not really, most clubs don't lie about that stuff? Willis continued to play when Rotherham were interested so I doubt he's throwing his dummy out the pram. It's just a foot injury. I would keep him, unless the valuation is met. He will compliment McDonald well, and we don't need to be...

    No More Signings Expected

    We are meant to have another good young keeper coming through aren't we? Think his name is skuza? Was talked up by one of the previous managers, and has warmed up with the keepers on match days before.

    No More Signings Expected

    One of RCC or Addai will be loaned out, and then I would expect both will be released at the end of this season

    No More Signings Expected

    Nick weren't you knocking me yesterday for saying that the budget was low ;) just messing... But think it's no surprise the budget is gone. 12 experienced players have come in, with only one loan. Think we should have enough about us even if we are light at CM to get us through the season.

    Anthony Andreu

    Exactly, give it 10 games, 1/4 of the way through the season then. We will have a good idea of how the squad is in terms of league position and in terms of who is a good signing and who is a dud.

    Anthony Andreu

    Haha the last bit was my own words! Probably should have used separate paragraphs. Clearly the budget is getting tight, but he does have enough left for a couple more loans (would suggest we aren't paying all of the wages??) don't think we will see any more permenant signings.

    Anthony Andreu

    To be fair if you use YouTube as a measure of how good a player someone is, then no wonder we have signed so much shit over the last 5 years. I don't agree with the original post necessarily but he isn't far wrong that people need to wait and see with players. People were saying how good some of...

    Today and in this article: Coventry City looking to sign more players before window closes At the end- says he has a little head room and is looking to add another couple, but looks like the budget is getting thin.

    Anthony Andreu

    Looks good on paper, hopefully just as good in person! Still need 2 more imo, at least one CM, and possibly one more CB? Pearson obviously only on non-contract terms so that does worry me. MR has said there isn't much left in the budget, so can't expect much more.

    Jodi Jones - 100k?

    Cole was never really fit for us, and didn't have a huge impact. Ryan Kent was here for around a third of the season? Maddison was and is a kid, that was injured for 3/4 months, and while yes very talented, was never the same player again after the injury? We had fleck in all of the other...
