    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Yep.They just make it up everyday as they go along. Whoever does the briefing just gets to spout the first thing in their head and that becomes the latest policy. It's like they're not paying any attention at all or looking at what others did/are doing to improve their response. Pure pig...

    crowd surfer Flag for Robins....

    Like the phrase but it does make it sound like he was forced to come here. I liked the idea of "heaven sent to coventry". Good play on the phrase but also shows appreciation to MR.

    I was thinking that you could potentially have a winger in the ACM positions to go wide and stretch a defence across the pitch as well as having the central players to collect second balls and run at goal. Need to make sure they're just as capable of shooting as crossing though to keep them...

    The Roman empire had a thing or two about slaves though.

    Wage Rise Upgrades

    I'd still like us to bring in a wage system based around % of income, which would reflect the league we're in and see player wages rise/fall automatically accordingly thus giving the club better long term security. Most companies use a pay grade system so why shouldn't football, rather than...

    Gustavo Hamer - CONFIRMED

    Holland on the whole does seem to be a very hit and miss league to sign from, esp strikers. Prolific marksmen look like they couldn't hit a barn door here (of course there are exceptions like RVN etc) Last player of this type we signed from Holland was probably Boateng, so if he can follow that...

    SBT player of the season

    Me too. I'm going Dabo. What about YPOTS? Would you let Walsh have that? Shipley for me.

    Loads of clubs look at data/stats now so probably largely come up with similar targets. I guess his data must look good somehow. For me it shows why actual scouting is still so important to look beyond that. Not knocking Baka but he sure doesn't play the way you'd expect someone of his size and...

    U18/U21 Development Thread

    Didn't know they could do that. Was aware he was often injured.

    SISU

    Legal process should have nothing to do with luck. So far every time a stadium issue has gone to court SISU have been found to be wrong in quite scathing terms.

    U18/U21 Development Thread

    See Tyler and Rowe were offered contracts and Callum Martin released. Have George Ward and Dan Lafferty already gone? I was sure they were 2nd years?

    Fisher on Talksport

    But last time it was supposedly about a better deal then just when it looked like something might be happen they pushed further and wanted more. We want lower rent - we want FB money - we want leasehold - we want unencumbered freehold.

    Fisher on Talksport

    I think around this time there was still a dark stain on football from hooliganism it was trying to shake off. Not exactly seen as a place to take the family for many. Plus we were perennial strugglers much of the time - for a non die-hard going to watch a team get beaten wouldn't likely have...

    Fisher on Talksport

    But the financial argument is does it make more money to receive more gate receipts from higher crowds but little/no FB money etc, or the FB money from a much smaller crowd which reduces gate receipts?

    Coventry running in the 16:40 today

    Was it pulled up with a furlong to go while leading by a length?

    Dabo I'm sure would've come up due to Viveash and his Chelsea links rather than his stint in Holland.

    Coventry Fan Pete Waterman ???

    He is. Was at the Belgrade a few years ago and talked a little bit about the football.
