    Lack of investment in playing squad

    Without getting into a big debate, it would seem to me that Sisu’s model is exactly the same as it’s always been. No information from them on aims, objectives and the way forward. The same silence from Seppala that there always is.Same court cases causing the club the same problems and their...

    Lack of investment in playing squad

    But the club knows it will get that money, presumably out going transfer fees would be structured in the same way. If what you say is true, we wouldn’t recieve the money from outgoing players straight away but we also wouldn’t have to pay for incoming players all at once. Therefore isn’t the...

    Vincenti gone to Macclesfield on a Free

    My favourite memory of Vincenti will be the away game at Colchester. For an hour he was terrible and in the second half, when he was playing right in front of the City contingent, he was getting dog’s abuse, most of which he would clearly have heard. He could do nothing right until he put in a...

    The Luck League

    I think the decisions in the play off games were a little bit of pay back for Nottts County as in the league game at Meadow Lane Burge is held on the line by a County player for their first goal while Ameobi should have been sent off for thumping McDonald. I have wondered, but couldn’t be...

    Transfer Rumours

    I think even a partially fit Willis was preferable to the McDonald who performed so badly against WBA. He was obviously way down the pecking order so I am sure Robins would have been delighted to get a fee for him.

    Amadou Bakayoko - Confirmed 2 Year Deal

    Yeah. I thought he was a good target man. Held the ball up well and was underrated.

    Amadou Bakayoko - Confirmed 2 Year Deal

    This guy comes on here, is polite isn’t abusive or unpleasant in anyway but gets abuse like this. Why is he a mutant? Because he comes from another town 30 miles from where we are? Sad that some people can’t simply have a discussion without calling names.

    Ernie tribute

    My favourite ever goal but I think it was Tony Waiters in goal for Burnley (Before Mellor’s time).

    1 in 4 forwards

    Or supporting them instead. (Depends on the type of criticism I suppose. The McWankty variety isn’t going to help).

    Once more into the breach - TLS Scunthorpe

    I came away disappointed but still optimistic. Definitely a big gulf between Leagues 1 and 2. The only time I felt that Scunthorpe were wasting time was in the last few minutes. Last season some teams seemed to do this from the start. One other thought that has just occurred is that last...

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    I think Eakin is okay. It must be hard during commentary keeping up with play while having messages relayed through head phones. I find Start Linnell’s mateyness with ex-players irritating along with his laughter at non-jokes. Just getting old and grumpy I suppose.(Me, not SL).

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Wasn’t it Stuart? Didn’t think Clive was there yesterday. Easy to make mistakes.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Scunthorpe United Match Thread - Saturday 4th Aug

    I think some people have a completely fixed mindset about a player and that can never be changed. For some Biamou and Burge can never do anything right. At the moment JCH is a player that frustrates me as his impact on games is marginal and he falls over far too easily, as he did again...

    Brandon Mason

    Wasn’t that Hiwula that was fouled at the end going between two players? I think the Sterling one was first half.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Scunthorpe United Match Thread - Saturday 4th Aug

    Being in the squad today as he was for the play off final would suggest that he is.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Scunthorpe United Match Thread - Saturday 4th Aug

    We have 4 centre halves, same as we had last season. Thompson has stepped up to take McDonalds place. As Thompson is a centre half and is on the bench, presumably Robins thinks he can do the job. I thought he was okay. He was not at fault for the goal.

    Coventry City 2018/19

    If we are around that group for the season, at least we will have an interest at the right end of the table. If the forward coming in today (hopefully) is any good (hopefully) then I think we could challenge.

    We do get the odd mention in there. The write up of the play off final in the previous edition was good although I did feel it had a bit of an Exeter slant.
