    Portsmouth- what on earth

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19159779 Crisis-hit Portsmouth had to field a near-youth team as they lost in the League Cup first round to Plymouth. Pompey, who had to release all senior players to avoid liquidation, fielded nine teenagers in their...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    I was well aware I wasn't taking into account all the information when I made the initial prediction, which is why I thought I would make it clear my prediction only took into account how they finished last season and not who they had signed after that which is what I stated but your pea sized...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    No I didn't, when I made the point about how people would predict a struggle for us if we had stayed up you wouldn't give a straight answer and you knew I was right. You started going on how about people are not physic and anything could happen. Does this mean nobody should ever make another...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    I was using it as an initial indicator, how you do the previous season is a good indicator to how you will do the following season. Usually the same teams are involved in the lower half battle whilst the same clubs will be competing for the play off places. You get a few anomalies but normally...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    No got bored of reading your drivel Sort of how you didn't read one of my first posts when I made a prediction based solely on there form at the end of last season and you started barking on about players they have signed Nobody knows anything in the future for sure but we can still make...

    Most of them are free transfers, they got some cash from the Vaz Te and Butterfield transfers I think

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    I guess Cranie is just one of those players who is happy to be poor/mediocre as long as they are being paid well for it which Fisher was referring too

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    What makes you think that SISU may have learned their lesson? What had they done prior to make you think this? We would have stayed up on a shoe string budget so no reason to change it right? I guess you are just saying it they may have changed and we would have been comfortable in the...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    That's it resort to childish comments like this now as you and I both know 99.9% of Cov fans would predict another struggle if we had stayed in the division After 10 years of struggling at the wrong end of the table in the championship you don't know if we would struggle again if we had...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    If Cranie was good enough to play for a promotion chasing team he would weather it be Leeds or any other he would be. If he would improve their squad or was better than what they had then they would have offered him a contract. I am not bitter, he wasn't worth what he wanted paying and now he...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    Difference is we are in a different league, if we had stayed in the championship somehow would you have expected anything other than another relegation battle?

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    Which is why said "They will be lucky to stay in the division based on the last 6 months of last season" You see this means I am basing my prediction on there form from the end of last season and not on who they have signed Anyway I have looked at there signings and they have signed a player...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    Probably isn't but if Leeds felt he was good enough to be in a play off chasing squad then I am sure they would have got around any complications there may have been to sign He is probably on a similar wage to as CCFC offered him in the summer as he realised he wasn't as good as he thought he...

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    The fact Leeds had him on trial and decided not to sign him should tell you he was overrated by many here, people calling him better than Keogh etc.

    Crainie goes up in the world!!!!!

    I am not aware of the players they have signed but in the last 6 months of last season they were the worse team in the division bar none and I know they have sold there captain and best player in Jacob Butterfield to Norwich They will be lucky to stay in the division based on the last 6 months...

    Do You Agree With Fisher Changing The Bonus Structure At Coventry City?

    I don't know exactly but I would guess the bonuses would work on a slider basis with a better league position paying out a better bonus He is saying the total possible bonus payout is higher than last year, I think this would be the most successful scenario which would be promotion. So if we...

    Do You Agree With Fisher Changing The Bonus Structure At Coventry City?

    Only if we are successful which will hopefully lead to us being in a position to afford the rent

    Thorn: Jennings has proven his quality, Peter to get more time.

    Ok cool, I remember that Moroccan trialist we had 5 or 6 years ago. Played vs Leicester I think in a league match, rules must have changed since then

    Thorn: Jennings has proven his quality, Peter to get more time.

    Are trialists not free to play for who they want? I am sure we have had some trialists playing in competitive games beforehand

    Coventry avoid squad crisis....

    If they do so we will sign players to replace them who are fit an hungry for success and weed out those who are happy to coast by being average and get a free ride We can't have any passengers this season
