    Transfer Rumour Jahnoah Markelo

    You can never have too many right wingers 🤣 I wonder if this means that we see Esse as a number 10, otherwise I don't see the sense in this.

    Transfer Rumour Frank Onyeka

    @SleepyGinger It's all very well giving that reaction but the truth is we can't compete with Birmingham when it comes to money. I don't like it any more than you do but there's not point sticking our heads in the sand.

    Let’s have some calm

    We have been poor for two months. We will not be promoted unless we turn things around quickly. Otherwise, at some point in February, Middlesborough will overtake us and Ipswich and probably Hull won't be far behind.

    Transfer Rumour Frank Onyeka

    As I have posted before, forget Onyeka. Birmingham City want him and they will outbid us on the transfer fee and wages. We just can't compete with them, which is why they were set to snatch Manneh from us until he failed his medical.

    As I said above, we can't do it without taking other measures to stiffen up the defence but we do need to get more control of midfield.

    I do know what you mean but I don't think we have anyone else who can do it. As I said, we would need to have a third CB and/or play our full backs as defenders rather than second wingers. Ideally we need to recruit a tough-tackling, ball-winning midfielder.

    It's obvious that we need to tighten up at the back and look to gain more control in midfield. With our current squad I think the options are (a) play a third CB (b) play Grimes a bit further forward as more of a ball-winning midfielder and/or (c) use our backs more as conventional full backs...

    Four wins in eleven is not promotion form, it's closer to relegation form. This has been going on for too long now. It's more than just a little blip.

    It's not as if our kamikaze style is bringing us a lot of goals. As I posted on the match thread we have scored 12 goals in our last 12 matches, including the FA cup, which is relegation form. Unless something changes drastically, there is no way we are getting promoted.

    Match Thread Norwich City - Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 26th Jan

    In our last 12 matches, including the FA cup, we have scored 12 goals which is hardly better than Oxford who are 23rd in the table. It's not just our defence, we have been poor at both ends of the pitch. Unless we can turn it around quickly - and I don't think we will - I can't see us finishing...

    Remember back in early December when you accused me of being a pessimist? 😆

    We should still make the play-offs but if this collapse continues it's not a given.

    Over the season to date we would be 13th with that form.

    The better team won. We have three points from a possible eighteen in our last six away games, which is relegation form.

    Patrick Bamford got a second yellow for simulation two days ago.

    Coventry Live just reporting that Rudoni is injured but there is no news as to what it is. I hope it's nothing serious as we are going to need him. I guess Esse can cover the 10 role if BTA gets injured or needs a rest but then we lose our cover for Sakamoto.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I think it's unlikely. Birmingham are in for him and they will outbid on the transfer fee and wages.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I think he's about our best option, the truth being we haven't really got anyone to cover Grimes. What are our other choices? Allen or (stop laughing at the back) Lati? Don't get me wrong, I think Allen and Lati have their places in the squad but neither of them could deputise for Grimes...
