    Yeah, sevens and eights all round for me. Latibeaudiere showed more versatility, good sort of game for Palmer to do some stuff and I also thought Eccles was good.

    Match Thread Coventry City v Oxford United - FA CUP 3RD ROUND - 6th January 12:30

    As a group of fans we’ve sat through enough dreadful cup performances so more than happy with that. 6-2, into the draw, some good performances and some minutes for those who needed it. Excellent.

    Crikey, tough gig. Maybe we can reserve the discussion of signings for when we make one.

    Transfer targets

    The advantage of signing Phillipe Diningroome and Bryan Lownge is that if we get Chair from QPR he works well with both.

    Transfer targets

    The worst value for money you can get is buying a current championship player. It’s far more likely to be someone like Seidl. Bring in, improve, huge sell on potential. The Gyok/Hamer model.

    Why do they have to be in a relationship?

    Half Term Report

    I don’t think we actually had that bad a start. We won a couple early and we were in the games we lost by and large.

    Granted. But where were they when he took over.

    Are we about to lose the heartbeat of the club ?

    Is that Torquay in the FA Cup? What a game!

    Of course. Spot on. Can only hope we’d do it differently.

    Are we about to lose the heartbeat of the club ?

    Or before Allen was fit? Or before Bidwell came in? Or before Wright & Saka settled? Or before Kitching came in? Or before we changed formation?

    Longest serving managers

    That table is what happens when you have owners who know nothing about the game. Particular bits of nonsense recently include the appointment of Rooney and Forest’s sacking of Cooper. One of my pet hates is when someone achieves something way above expectation (getting Forest promoted) only to...

    Are we about to lose the heartbeat of the club ?

    OK. As things stand now I’d say I’d be more upset to lose Wright, Sakamoto, Sheaf, Eccles, Van Ewijk, Kitching, Thomas and possibly even Bidwell. I’m not disputing or suggesting O’Hare is a good player but for the team the others matter more right now.

    Are we about to lose the heartbeat of the club ?

    O’Hare is a good player but I don’t think he’s the heartbeat of the team. I’d say there are 7-8 players in the current squad I’d be more upset at losing. Great if he stays. On we go if he doesn’t.

    Recruitment has been shocking

    No-one hates Dasilva. He’s not a boo boy. But it’s perfectly ok to say what you see - he has issues defensively and he’s not as good as Bidwell. He’s a championship squad player - that’s fine.

    Recruitment has been shocking

    Ruddy was very good. He must be knocking on a bit now though?

    The change of shape

    System change has helped. But personnel changes have been just as important. Collins has looked solid. Kitching has settled and had a good effect on Thomas. Bidwell - probably the biggest differential in defence and attack. In the early games we really missed Allen’s energy and running. And...
