    Vic. Over or Under?

    Hopefully well over 20 and we push as close as possible to the Play Offs. He will be off come the summer (unless we go up) so it adds to his value. If he goes for £20 million, and even if Robins only gets 40% of that, we can bring in some real quality to the squad, and with O'Hare back by...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Rotherham United vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 18th Feb

    Can't seem him changing the team that started against Millwall. Only possible changes I guess are Burroughs for Norton-Cuffy or Kelly for Eccles. Neither of which I can see happening. Wouldn't mind seeing McGuire for Allen though and playing with a proper No 10.

    Ben Wilson' race for the golden glove?!

    I like Wilson, seems a good lad, and has made some excellent saves since he's come into the team. He's a No 2 though. If we went up I would still happily keep him (but as a No 2). He's too nervy, distribution poor and can get bullied at set pieces as he's not the tallest. Having seen the...

    Keith Houchen

    Wegerle on form was one of the best strikers in the league, but he was so inconsistent (right across his career), which is why he never got a big move. He scored some cracking goals for us.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Luton Town Match Thread - Saturday 11th Feb

    Got a feeing we might go on a bit of a run now (of wins that is). The next 5 are definitely winnable despite playing a couple of our bogey teams (Luton & Preston). I wouldn't change too much. Fadz for Doyle. I actually thought Doyle was worse against WBA than Panzo. Eccles for Cuffy...

    Panzo

    I like Panzo but he is having a rough patch. I’d still be happy if we got him in permanently. That will only happen if Forest stay up though

    Jamie Allen is Guilty of War Crimes

    Should have been McGuire instead of Godden to be honest to keep our midfield shape. Robins likes to keep trying Godden & Vik together despite that it doesn’t work

    Doyle was the worst of the back 3. Need Fadz back for Luton. If not McNally in the centre.

    Robins chased him for a while too. Strange signing, Robins demands hard work and that's not Walker's game. I am surprised he didn't see that when he was at Lincoln. Unless he just wanted a finisher. Even when Walker scored a few goals in our first season back in the Championship you could tell...

    Gyokeres

    It's only 90 minutes on a plane to North Italy (from Birmingham) and Italian clubs are not awash with money these days. No way they will fork out 18M for him. If it's a German club then he still needs to fly to Italy. Can't see it being a factor in him moving.

    Tough one - Look at Adam Armstrong, brilliant in the Championship at Blackburn but can't score in the Premier League. Some players do make the step up effortlessly (Ivan Toney) but others don't like Armstrong, Dwight Gayle etc. Vik is a strong player like Toney, but his game is based on running...

    Can't see any changes from the Huddersfield game. Defence stood up well in that game, and not sure I'd bring Fadz back for this one. Eccles or Burroughs for Cuffy might be one change Robins makes

    Was Strachen a Pointless Manager?

    I was surprised Phil Neal wasn’t pointless but Terry Butcher was! re: Strachan. He did give us some good teams, and had to clear up the mess after Atkinson’s random signings. He was stubborn though and never sorted the defence out. Marcus Hall, Paul Williams and Richard Shaw could do no wrong...

    Ex Player Watch

    I remember how bad and ineffective he was in those opening months of the L1 season though. Made it all the more surprising when he started banging them in for Bristol Rovers. Before then and including at Cov his stats weren't great at all.

    Gyokeres

    Can anyone remember a Cov player that turned down a move after the club accepted a fee? Only Misfud as I recall but he was asking for silly money to go to Bristol City apparently, he still wanted to leave CCFC and it was nothing about loyalty.

    Jamie Allen is Guilty of War Crimes

    Jamie Allen should not be getting stick. I remember some of Jordan Shipley's performances in midfield for us in the Championship. We probably need to upgrade on him to mount a serious promotion challenge, but he would be a great squad player. I would expect next season with O'Hare back, and...

    I am sure Robins & King would ensure we have a striker lined up (even if its an expensive loan from the Premier League) if Vik does go.

    Dabo

    At his best, he helps the flow of attacks as he’s technically good with pace and drive. His crossing has always been crap. His lack of assists confirms that. Likeable player but he needs to be moved on. Need a high quality replacement though. Burroughs looked fantastic at LWB but I was less...

    Jack Rudoni

    1) Player fits our model. Young, technically sound, development potential. 2) Our manager names and praises him in interview. 3) Huddersfield May well be in League One next season.
