That's true but it could just be because he's been working with Andrews and not so closely with Obikwu. They are going to be training for a good while yet. Obikwu did really well at Grimsby and it was a baptism of fire for the lad.

One of Da Silva or Bidwell has surely got to go I thought he was going to Grimsby. The suggestion was that we've built up a good relationship with them during Obikwu's loan spell and were hoping to send more of our youngsters there.

Leeds have offered him a contract if you believe Talksport (which you by no means should)....

My Dad and Grandad were only ever interested in sport that involved an engine so I never had that experience of being taken to matches as a young kid (did go to quite a few European F1 races though so I'm not complaining). Consequently, I didn't really get into supporting Cov until the early 90s.

Simms was announced before, think Wright was announced after.

Terry Butcher. I was aware of the team and that my family supported them while John Sillett was manager but wasn't taking a keen interest until Butcher became manager

He's a Sheffield lad.

Richard Spong?

He scored didn't he?

Hate to break it to you but Málaga made 2 appearances 😆

Time will tell. I don't see him going anywhere

We are talking about a nominal fee, likely far less than the cost of his wages if we then couldn't offload him. We wouldn't have triggered that extension unless we wanted him to stay and play.

Precisely

That's true but Allen has done more than enough to earn a free transfer if that's what he wanted. I'm pretty sure he's sticking around

That's bizarre. He surely didn't smoke when he was playing so why on earth would you start in your late 30s/40s?

He wouldn't keep it quiet if he was chucking money in, not his style.

I kinda think good strikers always blow hot and cold. The really good ones just have more good days than bad. I think it's probably true for Simms as well as Haji, both have the ability, it's just whether Frank can unlock it.

He has loads of offers from the Netherlands and Germany last summer and didn't go. Think he's pretty set on staying in the English game.

My money would be on Leeds or possibly Southampton might throw silly money his was to try and build a team that will bounce straight back.

Absolutely. Had we gone up it might have been a different story but Allen is definitely worth keeping in the Champ.
