    I’m not in the know at all but was told by someone who apparently is that we were planning to sign Henderson had we gone up thru the playoffs last season

    Video February Goal of the Month | Sponsored by Genesis Employment | Coventry City 2025/26

    The West Brom goal is great but the defending is absolutely shocking. His goal at Sheffield United is a brilliant piece of team movement. The goal of the season so far is Simms at Middlesbrough. Everything from Torp’s run to the first time shot is done with precision and pace.

    Video FOUR WINS in-a-row for Coventry City 📈 | City Unseen EP159 ⛫

    And for the ones who got away thread… Žan Vipotnik - the championship top scorer would have come to us rather than Bordeaux in 2023 but the then Brexit rules wouldn’t have allowed him a work permit for the UK.

    ‘The Ones Who Got Away’

    Henderson did not get player of the year. That was Gunnarsson. Was thinking earlier today that Rushworth is miles ahead in my ranking for player of the season. Only one other loanee has ever received that honour. ….. There have been five other goalkeepers since 1967 when the award was...
