    Summer transfer window 2024

    We need to make this HCfootball guy an honorary Cov fan - he loves tweeting about us.

    It’s like Robins knew something we didn’t… Robins had to hold the line on that, if COH’s performances were transformative, then he’d let him get on with. If the performances don’t back up the perceived lack of professionalism, you’re on the bench. Most of the players will be here next year and...

    Letting Palmer go frees up budget for a good free agent, Sheaf probably brings in revenue to sign 3-5 players for a fee.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    If his stock is high and someone willing to pay a fee, it's a deal that makes 100% for all parties. He's not someone I believe will take us to the next level and therefore, I wouldn't renew his (expensive) contract.

    tats back on the grass

    3-4-1-2 was spent as far back as Sheffield Wednesday in the cup and as you say, Sakamoto getting injured and EMC's loan back deal was a turning point as it put us in a difficult position. Without Sakamoto, the 4-2-3-1 shape didn't look right despite being the best option because it was square...

    Called 4-4-2 when AV mentioned it in his interview with the CET. If Sheaf is going to leave, that changes the dynamic a lot. It is interesting that MR earmarked needing more goals from midfield, a topic that I've been arguing with multiple posters previously. It's been a problem since Hamer...

    Agreed, MR had a bust up with Vik last year iirc ITK info dropped on here. Hamer and Gyokeres 'willed' us to the playoffs and then 'willed' us to be within a penalty shootout from the promised land. COH by contrast just wasn't on that level for whatever reason. I wish him all the best and he...

    Simms + Wright = ?

    Respectfully, it leaves Palmer on the bench and next season is probably going to be Palmer’s last for us. The theme for the next 2-3 season in the Championship is we’ll be shifting on good players to continually improve the team. Players like Bidwell and Palmer fit into this category.

    Callum O'Hare

    It’s well and good saying that but COH himself said he wasn’t interested in extension talks during his rehab. He knew if he came back from injury well, he’d get an offer from a top division side. Whereas if his form wasn’t great he could always extend with us. Him getting an ACL with 18 months...

    Season tickets for 2024/2025 season

    Anyone who wants a ST will get one and if you believe we’re destined for the Premiership, then again, you’ll get one to not miss out in the future. All these excuses about prices or non-Saturday KO times are superfluous. Our ticket prices this season are cheaper than they were 10+ years ago.

    Kieffer Moore

    Would it have served the team well in the long term? The answer is no. Since Moore’s loan, in the same amount of games Simms has 10 goals and Wright has 8 goals to Moore’s 7. 100% agreed and Keiffer Moore wasn’t going to Ipswich to be a depth option and in any case, even if we were in for him...

    Concerned now

    Agreed, with the loss of McFadz, Kelly, Godden and potentially Sheaf, we’ve lost our first 4 choice captains in one season. On top of that, if Allen and/or Bidwell could be on their way out. It’s another leader or two off the books in a young squad so we absolutely need some experience and...

    Kieffer Moore

    Over the same period Simms & Wright have more than Moore. Almost definitely on less wages too. Funnily enough I recall people saying Simms was never prolific in previous loan spells - 8 in 17 at Hearts and 5 in 17 for Sunderland.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    I don’t think we’ll try and sign Burrows, probably a player who’s unknown on here because a lot of people, myself included, have limited knowledge outside of the EFL/Prem. That said, the Championship and League 1 is producing a lot of reliable talent atm. Maatsen playing well in the UCL semi...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    We need a better option than Bidwell and JDS. His contract is expiring and the wrong side of 30 so you want to be improving that position. A left footed MVE is the dream.

    The sack list

    It also creates a pressure to potentially sell at a lower value too. If we’ve committed say £15m and we’re nearing some sort of deadline for FFP, we may have to sell to balance books to avoid penalties in the future. Similar to how we sold Hyam under pressure we allegedly accepted a lower bid...

    Ex Player Watch

    Frankly, our reserves have been pretty poor for a long while. This season we’ve had players on the bench who could make a difference (Palmer, Sakamoto, Wright and Simms) but as injuries, suspensions and form dips, we’ve ran out. This season we basically started again and this summer we’re...

    Transfer Rumour Godden

    My understanding is that I players offered in a part exchange have a value for transfer purposes so it shouldn’t circumvent paying us what is owed.

    Squad management is a catch 22 when you’ve had chronically small squads.

    Home attendances

    This side of the new year, 3 or 4 of our home games were rearranged because of the FA Cup run. I understand the frustration when games are rearranged to the midweek games, but not to early/late KO at the weekends (and Friday night) really. Again, if you’re ‘outraged’ that FA Cup replays and...
