    What would our survival odds be if we went up?

    I think that is a very low possibility. Good owners know it is likely they will come back down and if they trust the manager to bring them back up they will stick with them. Luton and Burnley are examples this year. I think it would take a fall out between Robins and King for a parting of the...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Rotherham United FC Match Thread - Tuesday 5th Mar

    Kitchin looks like a leader to me and keadets challenge. They challenge their team mates, they challenge their boss. If it’s done in the right way it’s a positive thing .

    What would our survival odds be if we went up?

    I suspect it was his only premier offer ….. Financially made for life but I suspect he’s not enjoyed his football much. remember Gus doesn’t actually follow football at all outside of playing …. Just not that interested .

    Should Ohare now be back up for Palmer

    Probably Oggy. He’s a fully paid up member of the Palmer fan club.

    That would be a high quality problem and one hope we need to solve in the not too distant future

    Should Ohare now be back up for Palmer

    Why did they go in the first place then ?

    Should Ohare now be back up for Palmer

    If he was going to he would have in January …. I know for a fact Leicester have watched him on multiple occasions. They have 5 players on over £70k a week with Vardy on £140k. You can see why players heads get turned, and agents !

    Who is good enough next season?

    Playing in the Premier League for Chelsea is a step up from Sporting. Premier League and Chelsea are now global brands ( despite the last couple of Chelsea seasons ) …. If you apply your logic then moving from SP to Man United wouldn’t be a step up …

    Who is good enough next season?

    Yes and the Italians essentially for decades the worlds top players dominated their leagues and they didn’t come to England. Now the balance has semi shifted and they can see its structural and therefore are trying to create a different structure to be able to compete.

    Who is good enough next season?

    Is Howley out of contract this summer ? Memory playing tricks on me but pre Eccles it might be Bigi who was last player to come through the academy and make an impact at championship level. Could be wrong. You can’t blame Robins for that because not many have gone on to have a better career...

    Should Ohare now be back up for Palmer

    Yes. the 2 10’s formation wasn’t working and he thought Palmers greater physicality was better suited to the match so he took COH off.

    Should Ohare now be back up for Palmer

    He’s actually not been a MOTM candidate for quite a while to be honest. COH is certainly a good player but his recent form hasn’t been to his own high standard. I still feel his physical attributes or lack of them will make him struggle in the Premier league. He’s a top end championship...

    Just a thought

    Who’d be a football club owner …. King getting pelters for not supporting Robins enough in January, despite buying Torp and EMC. Not selling any of our better players. Fans have short memories …. I think both Vik and Hamer would have been sold last January under SiSU and I’m certain we not...

    Transfer Rumour Summer 2024

    I thought he looked a threat against us to be honest …. I don’t think he is better than Wright or Simms but would be an upgrade on Godden from the bench Burnley have 7 players out of contract this summer including 5 first team players …. Assume they will re-sign them for their promo push next...

    Match Thread West Bromwich Albion - Coventry City Match Thread - Friday 1st Mar

    COH has completed only 2 90 mins in the last 5 matches. His poor form isn’t because he’s being over played.

    Player Tiredness

    Kitchin, Bidwell, Wright have had plenty of rest ahead of last nights match …. Binks, Da Silva were out the team for long periods. Torp had a 2 month winter break Simms hasn’t played that much football over the course of the last 4 months Thomas, MVE, Eccles I can understand …..
