    Derek Adams

    I confess, I had forgotten about your win percentages thread Ccfcisparks. I counted 8 on their with the same or better win ratio (excluding those that have only been in post for 4 games as the size is too small IMHO). But in how many cases was that over their whole career and not just their...

    Derek Adams

    I'm going to throw a new name out there for the manager position, that of Derek Adams. Who he? He be the manager of Ross County, who beat us 1-0 pre-season. Why him? He has over seen been at the helm for two promotions (albeit one in part due to a league restructuring) and a Scottish Cup...

    Poll: Who should be next manager of Coventry City?

    Within the constraints of a large asterix (which I set out here: http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/19841-This-Forum-can-decide-the-next-City-Manager...?p=253180), I was trying to decide who to vote for and find out a bit more about some of the names. I came across the following on Tisdale...

    Fisher seemed bullish about it this morning - but I'm not taking his word as gospel.

    sacking AT is a terrible decision

    Sorry, maybe performance was the wrong word. I was referring to the club's relegation generally, not the play on the pitch specifically (though, yes, that does play a part in the larger picture as I have said).

    sacking AT is a terrible decision

    I wasn't saying it did, but it does put some context to last season. The evidence of the three league games this year does appear to suggest some of the problems last year were not solely down to Sisu but, likewise, it would be wrong to blame Cov's performance over the last year on Thorn alone.

    sacking AT is a terrible decision

    You do indeed have to see it in context. Even Fisher has admitted Thorn had been 'constrained' last season...

    This Forum can decide the next City Manager...

    I see all these names being bandied around and I see the various winning ratios being paraded, but there are a few things I don't know that I'd like to know before I could say who I want as our new manager. Here are two examples: Budget - what is it? We think we're skint, but Fisher said on the...

    This Forum can decide the next City Manager...

    If it were to be Billy Davies, it'd have to be written into his contract that he could not bleat about having no money to spend as he must surely be aware that we are skint.

    Poll: Who should be next manager of Coventry City?

    Technically, Morrell's name was mentioned as a possible next manager option when we played Wrexham (and they beat us)... but there wasn't an actual vacancy at that moment! :)

    Football nets

    Complete guess, but is there less chance of the ball bouncing off the bit behind the posts that held the net out a little? Thus reducing the risk of hitting and coming back out and a goal being missed by the linesman?

    We give you Rangers (a bigger club), you redefine the boundaries... Don't believe it can't happen. It can. If the iceberg is big enough, the ship can sink.
