    What this transfer window tells you

    It is the summer that cost us. Venus of course is probably as much to blame for that as Mowbray. The squad that was built was unable to compete on a level footing in this league. Probably the best signing was McCann and that was because at least he gave us a bit of much needed steel.

    Edited. It is two games with 4 of his signings. Saturday will be his first chance to really alter the team to have the majority of his players playing.

    Actually, no, my mistake. Missed Reilly off two games. ;) Let's me recheck that. Put my hands up if that is my error.

    What this transfer window tells you

    Majority of his games have been played with 4 or 5 of his own players? Sorry, but that is not true. Bristol 4-1 City - Slade's first game, NO Slade players (before window) Peterborough 1-1 City - NO Slade players (again before the window) City 2-2 Bolton - Clarke, Beavon and Reilly, so 3...

    Anyone else watching the Oompha Loompa become president?

    Makes perfect sense that he should score lower with females, as he has been rather derogatory to women in general. Unfortunately, however you look at it and whatever you think of him, we have to work with the bloke. We have to work and negotiate with all kinds of unsavoury leaders.

    Really struggling to sleep after a night shift

    Sounds a little bit drug dealery to me. What's your cut?

    Michael Folivi

    Yep, didn't he come from the Strachan foundation scheme thing? He might well be behind in the pecking order for now.

    Really struggling to sleep after a night shift

    When I did nights I split my sleep. I would come home at 6 and then stay up until about 10 and then go to sleep until about 3. Would then try and catch a couple of hours later and make up time at the weekend. I do sympathise with you, Daz.

    Yep. Think nearly all of us picked up on that immediately. Also, TM talked of getting a big strapping centre half in, letting the rather slender Martin go, but then merely replaced him with the also non strapping, no better Turnbull. And 8th counted for nothing considering where we were in the...

    Have to give them longer. Not looked great so far, but Rawson is still dead new and Foley got injured. All of them haven't played many games for us yet. They need to start performing soon though for sure. Can't say they are bad signings yet and we can't say they are amazing signings either. I...

    Match Thread Coventry v Millwall Match Thread - Saturday 4th Feb

    Hoofball for sure and that's just the Millwall fans trying to kick a policeman.

    Anyone just see the tackle in the Newcastle game?

    QPR full back goes flying in with a crunching tackle. Takes the ball then the player. Much worse than Willis's I would say. Newcastle player left writhing in agony. Result, no red card, no yellow card, no free kick. Just a throw in.

    Slade now has his team. Signed 7. We should expect an improvement.

    What this transfer window tells you

    Really? When I have seen him he seems reluctant to go over the half way line and strolls about. He was awful against Brighton in the EFL Trophy. I am convinced he will be gone. Just seems to be here to go through the motions and pick up his pay packet. That's my deduction anyway. Surely he...

    Disagreeing with what? I asked for people's opinions and like I said I was only talking about from a statistical position of 1st to bottom 4 and then if we go down. When people look back statistically. I certainly do not think he was one of the worst managers ever. Obviously not, but from a...

    Me, rude? Yeah, okay. Trolling up to 11 tonight I see and less of the I'm right you're wrong stuff. Surely this is all about opinions. Very clearly there are a lot of people of the same opinion, that of Mowbray failing last season and that of him building a crap squad. Just look at the...

    What this transfer window tells you

    It's not about the 10 games. For some reason you keep focusing on the 10 games. I have no idea why. Where he failed was in his putting together of a very poor squad. Very clearly. His summer recruitment led to us being when we are. He left us right down the in the bottom four of the table and...

    What this transfer window tells you

    Yeah, wrong in your tiny little mind. The rest of us know the truth. :) No way we should have ever not made the playoffs from the position we were in. It was a desperate sequence of games without wins, an awful run of form. Then in the summer he and MV poorly recruited and built us a side ill...
