    Discipline

    Does not surprise me. It all seemed rather too pally pally at times when Thorn was here for me. Too much matey and probably lacking the discipline required.

    Barton

    What on earth was that from him today? From the sublime to the very much ridiculous. When he plays like this he is a liability and very much a luxury player. Can't see how anyone can argue with that and there have now been a number of these sorts of efforts from him.

    Maybe Wood is wearing comedy pants and clown shoes to raise money for charity. Sent from my KIS using Tapatalk 2

    Coventry VS Bournemouth

    Only 3 players to come out of that first half with any degree of credit for me. Baker, Bailey and McGoldrick. Moussa and Fleck all but non existent. Barton from the sublime to the ridiculous, with the empasis on the former. Looking shaky at the back too. :-( Sent from my KIS using Tapatalk 2

    Yep, Norwood on occasion, not consistently though. A lot to do with the team mind I would have thought. Sent from my KIS using Tapatalk 2

    Yep. How sad is that. Thought Clingan was going to be that player but it never ever happened. We had one very good season out of Stephen Hughes I recall.

    Deegan: Glad to wash my hands of City

    So reading inbetween the lines here are you saying that journalists have a problem with the Chinese? :whistle:

    Deegan: Glad to wash my hands of City

    Errrm talk about news spin. What does he say wrong in that piece? CovMad has - Deegan: "Glad to wash my hands of City." What the article says and he actually said is: "The Irishman, who was packed off to Hibernian, after his place at Coventry became untenable following a tweet he made...

    Yep. Spot-on.

    Would like to re-phrase my question here somewhat if I may. When was the last time a midfielder of ours dominated and controlled the central midfield?

    must win game today !

    One thing is for certain, we can't afford to lose. I will accept a draw if we play well and create chances, but luck is against us. Don't wish to see another defeat though. A complete performance would be nice for a change whatever the outcome. We had a bit of ill luck on Tuesday with the...

    Been piss poor for many a year. We thought Bell would maybe the answer. He has failed miserably thus far. We thought Clingan would be the answer. He failed miserably too. We thought Deegan might be the answer. He wasn't. Last MOTM midfield performance apart from Baker I can recollect was...

    17th January 2009 Coventry 2 Blackpool 1

    Another worry for me is MOTM performances by midfield players. There was Baker against Brum. Struggling to find many more (if any) over the past few years past that though. What other MOTM performances have we had from a midfield player over the past 2 or 3 seasons? Bet you can probably count...

    Another oddity and embarrassment is consistency of players. Listening to a guy on CWR from the local radio in MK on Tuesday and he was talking about the consistency of players such as Darren Potter in the midfield and one or two others and he said that invariably they played consistently well...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    I'm happy to move on, but while the players he brought in continue to be under the spotlight, he himself will also continue to be in the spotlight too. Hasn't helped at all that we have had such a bad start to the season and the players that have been brought in haven't at all shone. In fact...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    We do need to draw a line under all this, but it was clear Andy Thorn was simply not up to the job and I will be very surprised if he ever gets a job in football management again. All the excuses in the world do not hide the fact that he came up woefully short of what was required to manage a...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    Difference is, as follows: 1. We were one of the favourites to go up this season. 2. AT said we were very much aiming for promotion. 3. AT said that all the 9 signings were very good quality. Last season we were struggling and looked likely to struggle whoever was at the helm. This season...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    Trouble is, he brought 9 new players in. While any of these 9 players continue to under-perform the trail is always going to lead back to him. Until it is Robins with his team this is going to run and run and run. Going to just have to get used to it I'm afraid.
