I think it’s fine to say it’s shit and you don’t like it - I found Lorna insufferable during the Sunderland games at the end of last season. I can appreciate this might be an assignment forced on her and us because of cost cutting - but it’s still shite. When I listened last year it felt like...

I hope this thread doesn't descend further into misogyny. It's easy enough to criticise someone who is underperforming and/or in the wrong role without bringing their gender into it.

I think the thing that I find the most concerning / disappointing is I don't know that I can point to anything that suggests the coaching team have learned from last season and changed anything tactically. The Championship is a super competitive league and plenty of teams are very well...

I like EMC, but agree he has always looked a bit heavy. Pre-season looked like he had slimmed down a bit. Felt he played OK on Saturday, definitely a handful but sometimes he does way too much before just getting the ball in. In general, that laboriousness is what plagues the entire team. We...

Just read it again carefully, I was agreeing with your original post! Perhaps you’re in a noisy environment - it might be hard to focus on the words over the sound of your early retirement.

It's all mañana mañana lads

You totally missed the joke Hobo... I think I understand that names online aren't literal pal. I'll be sure to find time to send more jokes over your head though while tending to the garden in my palatial estate - which I retired to at 42.

Problem solving without context or constraints is the lifeblood of the Coventry City online community. I bet you're a Hobo because you haven't bought a house? If I were you, I'd prioritise that mate.

For EMC, I wonder if we'll see him faster and more nimble - it looked to me like he has lost a bit of bulk/muscle when I've seen him on pre season videos. Agree he can over complicate things at times, hopefully the coaches can work with him on that.

That's a great idea, have you thought about writing to Doug?

This is a good read on why this deal was done and perhaps why it took some time: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6501696/2025/07/26/arsenal-viktor-gyokeres-inside-transfer/

They've won back to back league titles and qualified for the champions league 2 years running - last year they won both domestic trophies. I think they've done just fine out of the deal. Everyone has, including us.

Doug has said multiple times that if a deal makes sense there's money to invest. This particular player looks like a profile that is very likely to return a good profit - hence we made a bid. I don't think it's the case that there's a finite budget (apart from the cap which is set by the...

I think that's what it is, too. If Dovin takes longer to return or struggles we still need a top drawer keeper, we know Wilson & Collins aren't at the level. If Dovin comes back and can challenge for his place, then Rushworth looks like someone who will turn a profit if needed.

I'm just enjoying following his career at this point and I doubted he would work so well at Sporting and he proved that wrong. One thing that I think is hard for statisticians to measure or spot is his mentality - he's clearly so ambitious and determined, that should never really be an issue for...

This is so obviously fake - didn't say "Join the journey" once or "in the arena". And we all know he spells it Ciddy.

It is here but you'll need a VPN via France to watch (it's geo-locked):

And what about when the game starts?

Some more details here from the accounts in the year they acquired: https://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/frasers-group-accounts-confirm-cbs-area-purchase-price-revenue-losses.158884/ If you're bored you can probably look at the property sections of the accounts since then to kind of work out...

Do you mean Fraser's Group? They publish results here: Frasers But the Arena is just a tiny part of the group's overall operation and they have no obligation to detail specifically how the Arena operation is doing. You will find some details under "property" of the most recent HY25 report for...
