    Chaplin's Pace?

    I agree. Those that are questioning him aren’t looking at his all round game (touch, vision etc) and his natural strikers instincts. He’s also only 21 and this is the first time he’s played regularly FFS ! The effort in the first half from a great cross (from brown I think), knock down from JCH...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    So you would've thought a sensible deal would be a top priority for all. I note that those who appear to want to see the UK fail post Brexit were quoting Eurozone growth figures last year and earlier this, and some would say gloating when the economy slowed down in the UK. Well as everyone knows...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Unfortunately, this kind of one sided view is why we are and will continue to be in a divided state. People on both sides just don't listen to the others sides views/concerns (see 660 pages as proof !) You can't reason people out of positions they have not reasoned themselves into (sounds like...

    Agreed and people are forgetting they were above us in the league before today’s game !

    The Guardian Coventry City Face Homeless future after Sisu's litigious aggression

    Interesting article and pretty much as I would see it pre sale to wasps (I agree Wasps are hardly setting the word alight and aren’t in a good shape financially). The facts are though Sisu fucked up, burned bridges etc etc. That’s not just the journalist saying it, it’s the judges involved...

    Interesting comment about Bayliss Esoterica. I agree that he’s having to be far more disciplined when he’s in a middle two, especially with Thomas and Hiwula (both very attacking) wide.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Wycombe Wanderers Match Thread - Saturday 13th Oct

    100% agree ! Our fans are a bunch of jokers sometimes. Expecting the world from an 18 year old straight away. Same with some moaning about Chaplin after a handful of games without a goal ! Fair play to both today. Keep the faith !

    Match Day Thread - Sky Blue Sports & Leisure Limited and Others -v- Coventry City Council and Others

    I’d be shocked if he/they ultimately wanted to sell to a rugby franchise than the local football club. I’m not saying others were totally blameless but it all stemmed from sisu’s ‘tactics’ to get hold of the ground

    Not sure ‘snakey’ Is fair Nick. They’re a charity that Sisu (hedge fund) were quite happy to fuck over. Sisu had every opportunity to build a relationship with both the trust and the council yet were too focussed on distressing ACL to pick up the stadium for nothing/next to nothing. I wish the...

    Match Day Thread - Sky Blue Sports & Leisure Limited and Others -v- Coventry City Council and Others

    All part of the negotiations ! I’m sure wasps are just trying to squeeze a bit more out of us for a longer rent deal. This is of our (Sisu’s) making, played hard ball and lost...several times ! Now they are up against a similar type of organisation. Sure it will get sorted if the money is right...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The The Western world appears to be one big Ponzi scheme at the moment. Keep increasing the working age population in the hope that it covers the cost of the aging populations. Unfortunately that overly burdens the current infrastructure/public services...leading to some of the issues we are...

    Match Thread Charlton Athletic vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Oct

    Just seen the goals. Great cross by Chaplin for the second as well as great header. Yes he’s missed a couple of decent chances but his lively, intelligent runs and makes it difficult for defenders...I’m still confident he will score plenty.

    Match Thread Charlton Athletic vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Oct

    He’s looked like he’s playing within himself recently, however, when he gets the ball and drives forward he still looks like the most dangerous player in the team. But he hasn’t been searching for the ball enough for me, he’s got to be told and believe he can influence every game. Young lad with...

    Chaplin Spotted Eating a Post Match Happy Meal

    Agreed Otis. Makes good runs, nice touch, works hard just needs a bit of luck. Snatching a little at chances. If that (not) offside goal had stood, which was a quality finish, he would’ve taken one of those today If he keeps his head up the goals will come

    What have we spent on players ?

    If that’s the case it’s going to be the same for incomings as well though (ie staged payments). All relative

    Haha, unfortunately I’m not sure (pretty convinced) any adequately replace McNulty....or even Biamou (for what he brings to the team) this season...who knows in future though. Comment was also assuming JP goes on loan Would be interested to see what Hiwula could do alongside someone (JCH) up top

    Worrying that barring not signing a goalscorer I thought we’d had a decent summer recruitment wise !!! Saying that I’m not convinced either the formation or chucking them all in first/second game of the season helped either !
