    Match Thread Charlton Athletic - Coventry City Match Thread - Thursday 1st Jan

    For the most part we certainly don't look like the league leaders today. Scrappy and largely unable to keep the ball. I get the team is almost 50% made of substitutes and we look it too.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Google says: was at one stage valued at £65m. Brighton were willing to sell for £25m in the summer but he went on loan to Roma with a EUR 40m option. Also says Haji value is between £10m - 12m. I don't think this is impossible. We'd only need an extra £10m or so to top up proceeds from a...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    The inevitable highlights link, for those like me that don't follow football generally (only the city) and had never heard of him. Looks to me that he's better than Haji all round but especially with his head and ball retention.

    Wright penalty decision

    Both were penalties imo.

    Thoroughly outplayed throughout. How can we go from the first half at Portman Rd to that?

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town Match Thread - Monday 29th Dec

    Can't find anyone in blue with a pass, have we even completed one? Ipswich are winning the first, second and third ball and outnumber us everywhere. Are they playing with 15 men?

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I hope so, although I reckon we will squeeze £20m out of some side. In my opinion, an excellent striker who can hold the ball up and pass (and score of course - both with feet and head) would take this side to another level. We've been missing that for a long time. If we can get £20m for...

    Frank Lampard previews Coventry's Boxing Day clash with Swansea...in quarantine

    I was fascinated to hear about how the club manages quarantine. Hopefully, next time we will get to hear about how often catering buys tea and coffee, or how the accounts department processes expense claims.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I was looking for young strikers with value < £20m and came across Semih Kılıçsoy. That would be a marquee signing, his reel looks a bit like Vik, in the sense that he doesn't get knocked off the ball. Edit: looks like Calgari have a buy option. Shame.

    Tactically - Lampard is pretty good

    I've spoken to Frank and given him our feed back that tactically he is quite good. He said thanks, and that you are quite good at excel.

    Ephron Mason Clark

    I think his future is through the middle as a striker. I think he'll end up as a keeper, that's his best position. He just hasn't discovered it yet.

    I think we win this and it could be by a comfortable margin.

    George Shepherd

    There is, and it's a really strange one. Closest to earth on current trajectory on 19 December. I write current trajectory because there have been serious suggestions that it may be an alien spacecraft of some kind. It's called 3I/Atlas...

    Our slowest ever player

    Has to be Isias, surely? I saw him barely move on his debut.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Bristol City FC Match Thread - Saturday 13th Dec

    Has to be a penalty surely? From the flight of the ball after the challenge it doesn't look like the keeper got anything of the ball. Even if Wright doesn't score directly from there he could have pulled it back across goal. Not that that's relevant. Not getting the penalty calls this year at all.
