I don’t disagree but at this moment in time, if Everton are interested(?) then we would be stupid not to accept an offer of c£20m, which was my original point. The longer we have him the less he is worth to us. If we are offered that in the next few days and don’t accept ‘he could injured or...

Yes if the agent can see even bigger £££ for himself in 12 months on a free transfer. If someone offers £20m in the next few days I think Vik will be gone; if they don’t why wouldn’t he just continue to do what he is doing, increase his ‘real’ value and go for nothing in Summer 24?

What? So his agent isn’t in his ear saying Vik let your contract run down with Cov and I can get you a £x million signing on fee plus £xK per week in salary?

Will it really be there in the summer? One year left on his contract? What’s to stop him running it down and we get nothing? Don’t get me wrong I don’t want him to go but if Everton are desperate and are willing to pay c£20m for him it’s a no brainer surely?

He could get seriously injured tomorrow and what would we do then? No player and no cash. Take the money now if it’s on offer.

Yes you have - unfortunately. Would be a record fee received by us and we need the cash regardless of what DK can bring. Can’t deny Vik the opportunity to better himself and we could lose him for nothing very soon anyway. It’s business and it’s what we’ve always done, unfortunately.

Bayliss 89th minute winner for Shrewsbury at MK Dons

From a time when UB40 were actually good.

Arsenal fans singing’Twist & Shout’.

He was but he was very effective too. Still remember that Lincoln match well ( very disappointed to lose to them with their vocal fans combined with the Cowleys’ antics that evening - also by our abysmal support which at that time was one of our most important games for years, to be which...

Before that I recall we played and won 1-0 (Stuart Pearce penalty) at already relegated Stoke on a Friday night back in May 85 before beating Luton and Everton to stay up. I was one of the few hundred who travelled up more in hope than expectation in a crowd of less than 7,000.

I’m baffled as to how SU are 2nd in the league - we’ve been poor all game and apart from the odd bit of quality from them I don’t see that they are any better.

Me too!

We actually conceded all 3 in last 19 minutes https://thegoldstonewrap.com/2013/11/23/gordon-smith-turns-set-back-into-comeback/

Listening to CWR on way home yesterday somebody said that we were 3-0 up against Brighton at home in 1980 and ended up drawing 3-3. Apparently we conceded all in in the last couple of minutes and 1 Brighton player ( I think Clive said Gordon Smith) scored all of them. Jim Brown confirmed the...

“However the Clarets could make a splash at a large figure and hope that Coventry’s uncertainties off the field force a sensible sale.” “Sensible” - for who? Talk about patronising, who writes this stuff?

Moss Bros has forum(s) - wow!

Pleased you are doing this again as have really enjoyed it in the last 2 or 3 years. I thought I knew a lot about us (Saw my 1st game in 74/5 )but I found last year’s really challenging - memory not as good as it used to be or perhaps just the massive turnover of players in the last 15 years?

This is 50 miles nearer to me than the CBS so if I can’t get tickets in our section I’ll just go in with the home fans and try to be quiet.

Me too ☹️
