    They have a few injuries, are poor away from home so a 2 nil win for us.

    Match Thread Sunderland - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Dec

    The funny thing is, is that it wasn't JH who got the game delayed it was the West Midlands Police as so many fans were still outside the ground.

    Transfer targets

    With only 10 days until the window opens in surprised at the lack of names/rumours being banded about. Not just for us but all clubs.

    Are we too nice?

    Yes but Gus had about 10 by November on his own last season including 2 reds.

    Gordon Milne - Highlights of a Remarkable Career

    It was Hastings High School I went there from 11-14 years of age then our family moved to Blackpool and we lost touch. Ian was a good footballer and did a year or 2 as a YTS at Leicester while his dad was manager. He got released and opened a really successful goalkeeper kit business the...

    Gordon Milne - Highlights of a Remarkable Career

    I was mates and went to school with Gordon's son Ian. Great times. I remember going to his house in Burbage, massive place with a tennis court. Great manager for us. Imagine a manager now getting us to 6th in Prem!

    We Need Scary Players

    100mil buy out clause. Portuguese clubs tend too stick with them if the big clubs come sniffing.

    Transfer targets

    It's unlikely any other team is going to offer Cal big wages and multi year contract until he has shown any sort of fitness and form. Getting 10-20 min game time isn't going to get him there either. In 3 month time we might be not only his best option, but his only option.

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    I thought that was probably his best all round game for us so far.

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    I’ve seen them all live and seen the highlights. He’s had some luck with rebounds that have literally dropped at his feet between the width of the posts. He just doesn’t seem on the same wavelength as the other players at times. The 5 yard passes go astray, he runs the ball out of play. I...

    Josh Eccles New Contract

    What I don't get is why we have 6 players at the back post every corner and no one at the front post? Same in general play to be honest. The amount of times we put crosses into the front half of the goal and out strikers are at the back stick really annoys me. The amount of chances we would...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    He's not a natural goal scorer. He tends to hit the centre of goal rather than the corners. Even watching him in shooting practice before the game he rarely scores. Really not sure what to make of him. He does somethings really well, he has enough pace, can dribble with the ball and can head...

    Leeds away - £45

    I'm still going. We have a boys weekend away every season and have picked the Leeds game as this years. With so many boycotting it might give some of the more casual lads (below 800 points) in our group a chance of a ticket.

    Get a grip, this is a rebuilding season.

    I said at the start of the season we had a much stronger squad but a weaker team this season. Nothing so far has changed my mind on that. I guess it all comes down to your expectations for the season. Mine was mid table so still time to comfortably finish there.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Stoke City Match Thread - Saturday 11th Nov

    It was a poor game quality wise from 2 poor teams. 2 shots apiece on target in the game sums it up. Subs made us worse. Thomas and Kitching both look better players in a back 4.

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

    That was a depressing watch and a more depressing 2 1/2 hour drive home. Don't think a single player had a good game for us. Best we had was ok.
