    Interesting Trust Action

    We didn't really discuss individuals at great length, we just mentioned at the time that we'd had conversations with you in the background. I'll speak with you privately about what was said as I'm not airing detail publicly.

    Interesting Trust Action

    Exactly. If the Trust can become relevant again then it's absolutely in the clubs interest to work with them. At the moment there's no real incentive for them to work with them. They see them as just one of a number of supporter groups that take part in the supporters forum and don't see them as...

    Interesting Trust Action

    I'm not sure to be honest CJ. I think from comments made to us they'd probably want to see a sustained change in direction over time and probably large turnover of personnel. Obviously nothing is impossible. They felt the Trust were constantly pulling in the opposite direction to all other fan...

    Interesting Trust Action

    You need to let it go Nick. CJ has answered the question multiple times now. Other than on a third party website there's no evidence of any further link between Roger Ellis and the trust. I assume Roger is on the FSA committee/board for a fixed term and is allowed to remain as he was on the...

    Interesting Trust Action

    One of the other big problems the trust have is that they've alienated themselves from the club over time. It's a huge job to be able to repair the reputation of the trust both with fans and with the club.

    Interesting Trust Action

    Coventryskyblue probably isn't very original.

    MR currently sitting in 10th place

    There's absolutely no evidence of that at the moment, although clearly we would be much better off playing in Coventry.

    Tom Flanagan

    If we're looking at Flanagan I suspect it's more for either flexible cover (plays RB, LB, CB, LM) or to play in the LWB position. Let's not get hysterical.

    Not really.

    Probably the best so far. I'd lose the date and lose "sent to Coventry". Think I'd prefer it in black and white with the 2-tone theme.

    Interesting Trust Action

    Am I right in saying the Trust will fold if they don't have enough board members? Guessing this is why the advert has been placed.

    Doing business early

    I don't think we'll be waiting to save a few weeks wages. We won't want to risk losing out on players by waiting. Players who are out of contract will be weighing up options (or at least their agents will).

    Dujon has bags of potential and I've no doubt he'll make it at the top level (or at the very least Championship). Was more comparing their comparative levels with us, where I feel Dabo was a step up.

    Callum Wilson Where to next

    You'd hope not.

    Ex Player Watch

    Played 22 times in the Eredivisie this season. Only scored twice though. Was surprised to find out he's still only 22.

    None of those players were at a level where they paid to play. They wouldn't have got much for playing but all would've been paid footballers. In fact, the comparative step up in wage was probably far more for Thomas.

    Can't see that being likely then.

    Liam Walsh

    Imagine if he played and Bristol City got promoted. Not many players would be able to say they got promoted twice in one season. My hope is that he plays, doesn't impress and Bristol City get promoted - then they can chuck him our way.

    Realistic signings

    Would rather take a risk on Demetri Mitchell. He looked really good at one stage. Was the best player in their under 23's, went off to Hearts last season and picked up an injury, then had a setback in September. Been released, can play anywhere down the left hand side. Would be worth a punt.

    Exactly. I think we can all agree that, good as Sterling was, Dabo is a level above that. Just because one player can't step up, doesn't mean others can't. Also depends a lot on whether the system they're in suits them.
