Anyway back on topic ….

Eccles corner taking is a red herring … he’s either a good enough central midfielder or he is not. His corner taking isn’t the reason he’s being picked.

Solid enough but a bit one paced.

I do believe that Ohare is a good guy and good for team morale but I think it can be over stated. To my mind the biggest positive impact on our team morale has been our form. Winning matches breads confidence and positivity and changes the whole environment. in addition the new signings are...

The guy is a complete plum …. The players use him and he’s blind to it. I love the insights ITK’s bring, because some of it is genuine. The issue is that some of these guys are used to get messages to fans as part of the negotiation but they are not always savvy enough to see it. I recall...

Cash in

similar to the rationale given for Hamer wanting a move in the summer ….

No chance. for this to happen Godden would need to be outstanding in the championship.

I thought that was Chaplin ?

Robins and Viveash only for me in the last decade. Not only for their consistent achievements but importantly for their tenure. I’m not sure I would have any player in the last decade but McFaz would be a greater shout than Kelly who has struggled at Championship level to make a consistent...

I’m indifferent to Godden. I think he did a great job in Lg1, and has been ok in the Championship, but I don’t think his alround game justifies his selection now. 2 goals against a bang average lg1 team when they are already beaten and tired doesn’t change that. If he stays I hope he scores a...

Is this a WUM account or is Hamer unintentionally clueless ?

I agree but he won’t ….

If he stays he needs to stop his petulant goal celebrations ( fingers in ears ) ( no reaction ) and get on with it …. His supporters don’t deserve it and his critics are given more ammunition ….

Time will tell won’t it. Godden is 32 and has scored 32 goals and 8 assists at Championshio level. I don’t have any doubts that Simms will have scored and made more at this level by the time he is 32. Godden has been good for Coventry and we have been good for him but his goal record at...

No this elite professional sport. Players are incredibly well paid for part time hours and hero worshipped along the way but every player has a sell buy date. it is not unreasonable for fans to aspire for better players to help move the club forward. It doesn’t mean we have short memories...

So how do we interpret Goddens reaction ( or lack of ) to scoring and Robins comments on Goddens minutes….. my best guess is that Godden has a possible transfer available. Robins would like to keep him but Godden wants assurances over his playing time …. I said it in the summer and I haven’t...

I think the process is that Austin identifies the various recruitment options, and King, Robins and Austin agree the primary targets. Doug leads on the material negotiations and Robins has final say on all transfers. Robins reference to King is of course in part true but also in part a tactic...

Of course it is. This is a football forum not a laboratory …. My informed opinion is that he has demonstrated all the behaviours of a player who wants to try his luck elsewhere if the right offer comes along. I hope I’m wrong.

We have been over this lots and lots … When a player is asked several times about staying and signing a new deal and he continues to say he’s just concentrating on his fitness you know it’s a response agreed with his agent. The club have witnessed very recently (with Vik and Hamer ) how to...
