    Stephen Elliott Signs

    If you mean in terms of style, Elliot is 5 foot 9. If you mean in goalscoring ability you could be right.

    O'Donovan

    Yea we just don't have the quality in the final third to break the opposition down. Hopefully players like Baker, Mcsheffrey and Mcdonald can do it in league 1.

    I Know who the international striker is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Telegraph story about bringing in an international striker combined with Cardiff fans rumour that they are offering Earnshaw for Keogh http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/coventry-city-fc/coventry-city-fc-news/2012/07/02/coventry-city-closing-in-on-john-fleck-signing-92746-31302612/...

    I Know who the international striker is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Would I want him as first choice. No I do think he would be a better option than Platt off the bench though.

    I Know who the international striker is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Think it came from some Cardiff fans saying they were going to swap him for Keogh.

    mcpake gone for free!

    If you look back at the page before Mcpake was unbeaten in 8 consecutive games he played in that season. There was a 4-1 loss to Newcastle sandwiched in them 8 games in which Mcpake was injured

    O'Donovan

    6 starts, he still played over a 1000 minutes of football last season and only scored 1 league goal

    I Know who the international striker is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Injury prone and would want high wages, people were mentioning him last pre season and nothing happened. Trying not to get my hopes on this pre season speculation only to be let down again.

    O'Donovan

    He has made 25 appearances for Hibernian and Coventry last season and scored 1 league goal. Only 11 of them were starts. I could take the lack of goals if he offered other qualities to the team but from what I have seen he does not. I agree we should get him behind him and support him, still...

    Paycuts

    That was what Eastwood told the court, bullshit imo

    Paycuts

    Have to remember Duleiu was chairman and head of football operations when all these contracts were offered out. He probably would have though it was a great joke to offer players excessive contracts and then resign afterwards, probably having a good chuckle about it as we speak.

    Paycuts

    tbf 8k for Macca is excessive, 4k would be fair. As has been said before surely there is some clause for a wage cut upon relegation?

    Two things which really annoy me...

    So predictable, I knew you were going to reply with this point about the owners before I had finished my post.:laugh: I would agree to an extent, we should be supporting the club and the owners as at the moment there is no credible alternative. Doesn't mean we have to like them or agree with...

    Squad have turned up for pre-season training

    No mention of Cranie in the telegraph and they mentioned pretty much every senior player in the squad so I am 99% sure he isn't there "All the other familiar faces including star defender Richard Keogh, Gary McSheffrey, Carl Baker, Cody McDonald, Jordan Clarke, David Bell, Chris Hussey...

    Two things which really annoy me...

    Stop being a dick, I don't think anyone here thinks Thorn is a top class manager and SISU are geniuses for appointing him. Most people acknowledge he is here and still here because he was a cheap option and already on the wage bill at the time, not because he was or has proven himself to be a...

    Squad have turned up for pre-season training

    Nothing confirmed by the club, people think they can see him at the back near Gael but could be someone else.

    mcpake gone for free!

    James Mcpakes first season at Cov Only 4 losses in 17 championship fixtures he played in and played in our best run going from end of January to mid March where we nearly made the play offs. This is pretty much his only consistent run of games since he joined the club due to injuries and we...

    mcpake gone for free!

    He isn't worth 500k solely because of his injury record but he isn't half as bad as you make him out to be. Our best two runs over the last 3 seasons under Boothroyd and Coleman came in a spell when Mcpake was fit and playing. He would be brilliant in league 1 if he could keep fit but if he was...

    Kevin Kilbane training with Coventry City

    Would be decent cove r for Hussey, not sure I would want to sign him though. Will probably want decent wages and we need to be prioritising in attacking players firstly.
