    Match Thread Coventry City - West Bromwich Albion Match Thread - Monday 30th Oct

    Corberan looks like he's been on the skag. Needs a blanket and a good meal in him.

    Moseley Signs getting in some great early advertising. Good strategy, getting the hoardings in the corner.

    Match Thread Coventry City - West Bromwich Albion Match Thread - Monday 30th Oct

    After reading some recent, enlightening arguments on this place about xG, I'm pleased to say that we're expected to win by a scoreline of 1.67 - 1.00.

    I trust Mark Robins

    My opinion keeps changing like the wind, because in spells we look really good, and in others we look devoid of ideas. Probably that one creative midfielder (plus backup, ideally) away from actually being decent. My worry is that we'll keep stumbling and bumbling along until the January window...

    Would D K wield the axe?

    There would. The days of recruiting a barrel scraper like Russell Slade are hopefully long gone. But as ever, the challenge is in picking the right one.

    Would D K wield the axe?

    I suspect that all owners want to put their own stamp on things when they first come in, but DK can't really sack MR out of the blue due to the credit he has in the bank with us fans. But as soon as the crowd turns with gusto, I suspect MR will be gone. Joey Barton's available if DK is...

    Match Thread Rotherham United FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 25th Oct

    I missed the game live, but watched it back on the EFL app at 1am this morning without knowing the score. Hardest part of doing that is avoiding the score on social media or going on autopilot and logging onto this place. What's annoying me most is that I think we look relatively close to being...

    OTT Bedwetters

    I'm not a traditional bedwetter, but this is the first time I've seen the manager look a little lost. He's always been Mr Adaptable, finding solutions to problems, but if your problem is formation and you've built it around multi-milion pound signings, then it's not as easy to change it up. I...

    Tick

    I assumed this was about that modern social media craze called "Tock-Tick" that all the young whippersnappers are looking at. My offspring loves the Chatsnap thing too, although she's not so keen on the Gram. #downwiththekidz

    If I was a player, I'd 100% look at forums like this. I'd also sign up anonymously and slag all of you off.

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    I was firmly in the wired camp until I got a good pair of wireless ones. But in the last two months, my daughter dropped one of her's into the weird underseat aircon tube in the back of my car (I had to deliberately drive up a steep hill so it would trickle back out), her friend dropped one down...

    Ex Player Watch

    Are you thinking of our French star Mathieu Manset, with his stonking 9 games and 1 goal? Mad to think that was a decade ago, seems like yesterday.

    2023 ?

    Sorry, but I want to increase the incredible dullness of this thread by saying that recorded time is longer than that. Recorded time refers to the history of events and knowledge that has been documented throughout human history, which goes back thousands of years. The current year is just a...

    Ex Player Watch

    How bizarre. Although, to be fair, they are the 5 time Rock Cup champions and 7 time Gibraltar league champions, so he might end up with a medal. Love how they describe him as their 'biggest signing to date' and as a 'former Chelsea wonderkid'.

    The ones who got away

    To be honest it was so late in the window, I had no idea of it and when it did come about I knew it was two days left and nothing was going to get done – and even if it did I didn’t really want to leave. “As soon as I found out I rung my agent and told him I didn’t really want to go, I wasn’t...

    If Bidwell wants out....?

    I understand that I'll be in the minority here, but I'd still have Bidwell starting, even though he probably isn't seen as dynamic enough for how we want to play. I just think his experience, and his steady Eddie performances, give us real solidity at the back, and along with Fadz I'd want him...

    Birmingham

    If MR and his team were to resign tomorrow, I'd have Eustace here to replace him. He's clearly a good young manager. If I was him, I'd be spitting feathers right now. He has a 45% win rate over 170 games, which is fantastic, and is being replaced by 'a winner' in the form of the dull...
