    The Rebuild- Around Hamer and Sheaf

    No, we shouldn't be chucking 40/50k. But if we can tempt him to stay with 20/25k, a big bonus if he gets us up, and a release clause of, say, 6m if we don't go up after 1 season, then all we've done is protect our asset for one more year for around 500k more than he's allegedly on at the...

    The Rebuild- Around Hamer and Sheaf

    I can understand having a wage structure, but from a financial risk point of view it would make absolute sense to offer him £20k IF he is at least tempted to stay. 1 million a year to keep one of the best players in the league, who is already here, settled, fits in with the style of play and...

    First idols

    Huckerby was my first, but I didn't go to many games then. Robbie Keane was the first true one that hurt, then no one really until Gus...dreading him leaving. Not sure I'll handle it any better now than when Keane left...only difference is I was 12 then!

    The morning after the night that wasnt to be.

    The losing on penalties doesn't bother me, it's the Hamer going off injured and 'what if' scenario that tortures me, really felt like we'd go on to win it before he went off. I already grieved for losing Vik in January and resigned to us selling him for the greater good of getting some serious...

    When it all calms down.

    This. It was so tense and pretty horrible, and has affected my mood for weeks! The limbs away at Boro are probably the best I have been involved in though, the release of pressure and unlikely circumstances of it were incredible, followed by increased tension until we got to the final whistle...

    Strikers that could replace vik

    It's a massive summer, no doubt about it. Just have to hope Robins gets it right, and it isn't like when we lost Keane and McAllister's goals in one summer without adequately replacing them. 😫 I think realistically it's a summer of rebuild, and mid-table would be a likely achievement, and not...

    Dabo released

    I agree there will be a lot of players leaving, all except Gus and Vik are rightly so but thanks for the service, with circa 10 coming in. Do you not think there's an argument for keeping Kelly to reduce the lack of continuity now he's proven he's still capable of being a valuable player in the...

    Dabo released

    This is my biggest worry about the loss; the breaking up of the team, and potentially a large amount of our much coveted spirit. With so many players moving on, including some who, from the outside looking in, seem very positive personalities, like Dabo, probably Gus, and the loan players like...

    Pre (and hopefully Post) Match Plans

    Some were about £5.50 during happy hour last time I was there, which is cheap for any drink in London. And they were good cocktails too.. It might include beer too, I'm not sure

    Anyone else's sleep fucked?

    Still doesn't feel real, the Middlesbrough games ruined my nerves, and it still doesn't feel like reality that we are in the Championship playoff final. The consequences of potentially actually being promoted to the Premier League by winning one more game feels like complete fantasy and is so...

    TICKETS

    Is everyone who selected load to card receiving a paper ticket? I've seen some say they received one, even though they loaded to card, but I haven't received anything..

    Kelly / Sheaf and Eccles / Allen

    I honestly cannot decide who I would pick in that midfield, it's such a quandary after months of the team/injuries picking itself - I'm glad it's not my job as I would get no sleep (probably won't between now and Sunday anyway!). I'm sure Robins and Viveash will have a plan...

    CBS - 5 Year Deal Agreed

    Maybe if we win tomorrow he'll hedge his bets, and release Season Ticket prices half way between the prospective prem price, and the prospective championship price. So he will mop up lots of sales on the buzz of beating Blues in front of a sell out and then hopefully the feel good factor of...

    Nuneaton Borough playoff final

    Seems to have gone under the radar, but if anyone's at a loose end on Bank Holiday Monday, Nuneaton Borough are in the playoff final against Rushall for promotion to National League North, it's being played at home at Liberty Way, as they finished above them in the league - which is how it works...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Birmingham City Match Thread - Saturday 29th Apr

    They should cut all the music at the ground 5 mins before kickoff and let the fans build up the atmosphere. I've seen it at a few grounds abroad and it sounds class.
