    Pearson signs

    It does. Just means the arrangement can be terminated at any time.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Newport County Match Thread - Saturday 19th Aug

    After our positive start i should be riding high on confidence for another win but i just can't shake the nagging sky blue pessimism. All i keep thinking is when did we last win 3 games on the spin? Did Robins manage that in his first stint? In an effort not to be totally negative i'm going to...

    David Boddy's Programme Notes

    Exactly this. If the CEO of a business is in the news every day it generally means that business is totally up the swanny. Robins name should be on every bit of news that comes out of the club barring stuff that's totally out of his remit such as the ticketing issues. That's when you want your...

    New Trialist - Owain Jones

    Depends whether Robins sees a long term future for Kwame at the club. If the answer is yes then we might benefit in sending him out on loan to a Conference side to get fit for a few months but because of his injury record and the level we would be loaning him too then we would have to pay 100%...

    Match Thread Grimsby Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 12th Aug

    I think we will win but home advantage and a claggy pitch will favour them a bit so i'll say a scrappy 1-0 to the City.

    His long abscenses are disappointing as I have generally liked the look of him when he has played. Certain he can do a job in league 2 if he can just get fit

    Where are you? Back the lads!

    I was playing it by ear as if I did go I would have to take my 4 year old with me. Some days he wakes up and brings instant joy to my life. Other days he's lucky to keep breathing till bedtime and I didn't fancy the ride all the way to Grimsby if it was the latter kind of day.

    No More Signings Expected

    No, what I mean is I have seen him play the Doyle role for Rochdale lots of times and he can break up play and dominate the midfield should we need him too. He hasn't quite got that "do as your fucking told or I'll rip off your arm and twat you with it" look that Doyle has but more than capable...

    Vincenti can definitely fulfill that role.

    Where are you? Back the lads!

    Very random decision. I was actually considering going to this and paying on the gate, guess not now.

    Agree, i was a little bit surprised to see both Doyle and Kelly dropped for the Blackburn game, although i understand the need to save them for the league. Had one of them been playing alongside Shipley/Stevenson we could have seen a very different game.

    No More Signings Expected

    Maycock is a centre mid isn't he? So that's Maycock, Shipley and Stevenson all as cover for Doyle/Kelly. Plus, we then have the option to put players like Finn on the wing which would allow VIncenti to play centre mid should we need him too. Given that we still have loan slots available should...

    Is that our transfers finished now?

    Fair enough, I guess it is a gamble as to whether he can live up to the promise he showed in pre-season but worth sticking £20k on the table and see if they jump maybe?

    Is that our transfers finished now?

    If the only reason we didn't sign him was because we were waiting on GT to make his mind up / Needed the GT cash to make it happen then signing Moorhouse would make perfect sense. Already had a good look at him, he knows the rest of the squad etc. Has Robins ever said anything about why the deal...

    Players on Trial

    Few of my mates were at the game and rated him. Every comment i have read on here today has been positive. Seems Robins was the only one who didn't like what he saw.....

    Final Transfer Market Dealings

    Why is everyone so certain it will be Pearson and not the ex-Chelsea kid? Have I missed something?

    Final Transfer Market Dealings

    I can't see us signing any more strikers either, other than Moorhouse possibly.
