    Championship thread 25/26!

    I'm a big fan of Smallbone when fit, but his injury history is pretty concerning given his age.

    Well done. You are literally just repeating everything I've said.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Loans and free agents only for this window and in January. They do have a third embargo which has been suspended pending further breaches. They wouldn't really be able to replace him with anyone of real quality. But money talks and I suspect the owner isn't as resilient as he claims to be in...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    The biggest issue is they can't replace him. They could in theory try to pursue the option of a loan to buy - but given their recent track record I think you'd do well to get a club to agree to that. There will also be a hope that they could generate double what we've offered by next summer if...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Posters seem to forget why Hull were embargoed in the first place. Their owner publicly admitted at the end of the season that they will likely need to sell first team players to ease the financial burden of their soaring wage bill, with him also encouraging external investment. To sum up...

    Wouldn't say that's necessarily the case. We wouldn't continually put bids in for the mere sake of it.

    Not really. I suspect we're hoping it tempts him to force a move. Don't try don't get.

    Ellis simms

    This debate is getting very boring now. He's scored 8 in over 50 apps since then. And his overaell performances and demeanour on the pitch have been unacceptable. I'd suggest that's a more accurate reflection of his actual ability rather than a temporary hot spell, which as proven dozens upon...

    Stadium update

    Even more so when they give zero coverage to Coventry Rugby Club. Disgraceful really.

    Business still to be done

    I do find it a bit odd that we haven't loaned Obikwu yet. You'd think he'd have takers. Makes me wonder if we're waiting for something to land first.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Their sole focus at the minute seems to be to use the window to rid themselves of their high earners and reduce the wage bill rather than bring anyone in. Pushing PSR to one side, running the club has clearly become unmanageable for King Power who have issues of their own. It is now seemingly...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Looking briefly at what they reportedly pay for players I think we can file that under never happening.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    He definitely doesn't. Given the fee we paid he's been a bad signing. He doesn't really have any redeeming qualities, has shown nothing to really suggest he'd ever make it at this leve and thinks he's considerably better than he is. A bad mix for a footballer. The above is compounded...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I'd quite like to see Perry get another loan. I know it was only pre-season but he showed some impressive signs. I would've thought we're waiting on a CB to come in before we let him go out.

    Match Thread Oxford Utd vs Coventry City Saturday 30th August 3pm KO

    Said last night we really need to avoid conceding set pieces. They were proficient at them last season - think they scored over 20 across the season if memory serves.

    Need to make sure we don't concede too many set pieces.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It's a tough situation to be in. I still think a PL club would need to meet their valuation, but realistically they'd hardly struggle if they were keen to land him. I do wonder whether Azaz wanted out as well. Boro fans seem to think he did.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Not sure. While he clearly has his eyes set on a PL move, hence why talks with Ipswich probably broke down, Boro wouldn't be able to feasibly replace at this late stage which would surely incentivise them to dig their heels in. Then again the PL club would know they'd have an unhappy player on...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I would imagine that's why it's been leaked to the press. It's a 'come and get me' plea.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    To make matters worse it's reported Hackney has demanded to move if a PL club comes in for him. Although I'd imagine Boro will dig their heels in though on that and would likely take a monstrous fee.
