Oz Howie · Aug 5, 2016

Local press reporting this morning that Australian born Coventry City defensive midfielder Andy Rose "has been offered" to A League defending champions Adelaide City. What does that mean?

MiniManMorgan · Aug 5, 2016

It means that if the reports are true, CCFC are offering Adelaide the chance to sign Rose

skyblueelephant76 · Aug 5, 2016

It means if the reports are true the world is going to go into meltdown again....

Oz Howie · Aug 5, 2016

Rose will be safe in Australia then.

Otis · Aug 5, 2016

He might blossom there.

Ex Coventry boss persuades player to move to Adelaide.....

Every Rose has its Thorn

Shame , thought he would be a main man here
Can only imagine he doesn't like uk?

If any City fan flips a lid over him leaving , then we know ccfc moan for moaning reasons, he hasn't done a thing for us yet footballing wise

You don't win anything with kids
Theme of the season then

Nick · Aug 5, 2016

Really? Is this news from here or there? Any links?

SkyBlueScottie · Aug 5, 2016

We certainly should flip a lid, mainly cos we have only got 17 players...

Maybe trying to sell him for 50k so we can make a decent side for this season.

the rumpo kid · Aug 5, 2016

26, hardly a kid, should be playing the best football of his life.

Apart from volley in a winner off the underside of the bar against Bradford. What a goal that was.

stevefloyd · Aug 5, 2016

Cant say i have been that impressed with him pre season... good engine yes good passer no frees up more money but we are getting very thin on the ground if it is true but no great loss

stevefloyd · Aug 5, 2016

Also lets us develop the likes of stevenson

Deleted member 2477 · Aug 5, 2016

I thought he was good last season and gave us more attacking power from midfield as he was more willing to run at the defence from midfield than fleck.
If this is true then i think there is something massively wrong at the club with the majority of our more experienced players particulary in midfield asking to leave or being sold.

This season will be a joke if we are left with a shell of a team to compete with

harvey098 · Aug 5, 2016

I like Rose a lot. I think he will be very effective this year if we hang on to him. Good attitude, combatitive and you can guarantee he will always be around whichever box the ball is in.

ccfcway · Aug 5, 2016

we may need to let one or two go to bring one or two in

Deleted member 2477 · Aug 5, 2016

Trouble is letting them go has been the easy part. The second part just isnt happening enough

stevefloyd · Aug 5, 2016

I think the one or 2 have definitely gone ... not sure what the plan is any more

Deleted member 2477 · Aug 5, 2016

Dont think there is one stve other than cutting the wage bill and keeping thir fingers crossed

stevefloyd · Aug 5, 2016

Could be right marcus... maybe money is tighter than we thought

Good idea. Get him back as manager.

Deleted member 2477 · Aug 5, 2016

Didnt we have a couple of posters a few weeks back saying the club was in a financial mess and tm wasnt getting any money.
We all slapped them down at the time but perhaps they were right. I think we can kiss any hope of improving on last season goodby at the moment

AFCCOVENTRY · Aug 5, 2016

Adelaide fans are saying it is bull. They would never pay a club for a player!

stevefloyd · Aug 5, 2016

That sounds like cov never pay a club for a player.....unless its undisclosed

Agree. Expected him to be a big player for us this season. Played well when given a run in the side at the end of last season. I would be more disappointed if we lost him than I was with the Vincelot sale.

i wouldnt imagine theyll be giving us money for him
i'd imagine contract cancellation so no one loses money

The clues were there for me. 60% of all income could be reinvested in the squad. But we made more cuts and never saw any of the Maddison cash. They also said what the break even gate was. We kept up with it and beat it most games. Then they said towards the end of the season that their amount was well out.

Usually it is the selling club that insist on non-disclosure. I suspect D&R had much more to gain from the Jones sale being undisclosed than CCFC. If the fee they accepted was less than the 300K Charlton offered, then they would have to answer serious questions from their own supporters, so best keep it quiet. It is quite commonplace for transfer fees to be undisclosed in the lower leagues, we're hardly unique in that.

Can't see this being true at all. Out of 1000's of clubs in the world, how did we know that Adelaide needed some players?

Surely we can't afford to lose another player

Relegation odds anyone?

May not be true, but if it is being reported in the Australian media, then there is possibly something to it.

ashbyjan · Aug 5, 2016

Firstly wouldn't be too fussed if he left - never saw anything special in him, would rather have kept Vincelot but that is water under the bridge. Secondly it says "presented to" but it doesn't say by whom - was it the club or Roses agent trying to get him a move back to Oz. If its his agent is it at Roses request, because he wants to move home or club has told him to find a new club? Its easy to jump to the conclusion that its simply the club offering to sell but in this case I find it a bit harder to believe that we are so desperate to off load him that we are touting him around Oz - would think it may be he has decided to move home. That's if it is at all true to begin with.
