Was going to comment this soon. Seems a very logical move from both parties.

He'll get offered more £££s elsewhere, I'm afraid. Can't see it happening.

For the first time ever I looked at those games and thought “we should win all those”. Then looked at the next 8 and thought “fuck”.

And in true Coventry City fashion we will win 1 out of the next 7 before winning 5 of the following 8

Lyle Taylor scores early doors against Derby.

Scott Hogan makes it 2-0 to Blues, him and Taylor look a good pairing.

They must be paying some wages for strikers.

Lyle Taylor is a total shit.

Funny comeback. Enjoyed that.

Blind-Faith · Jan 30, 2022

What a finish to that game! Would rather derby stay up than blues. Blues just a bunch of time wasting long ball merchants, horrible to watch.

Really confused by the high foot rule now...

Footballing style yes, but Derby deserve everything they get points deduction wise. Don't want them to go bust, but they're cheats.

Absolutely deserve their point deduction for what they’ve tried to do. No arguments there. But the more I see Birmingham the more I dislike them, glad I don’t support them and have to watch that shower of shit every week.

No - they clawed back from Posh after being 2-0 down, Clint. Although, hardly a great result!

Sky Blue Harry H · Jan 30, 2022

Hoping Bielik is out until after we play them; he's a quality player.

We’ve had two administrations and we’ve moved away the first time certainly on the understanding we’d be building a new ground - our league 1 wages in that season vastly outdid the percentage cap to income which many opposition managers vocally objected to

fernandopartridge · Jan 30, 2022

Cardiff beating Forest. Forest have been pretty unimpressive tbh but Johnson is a threat

So we didn’t break the rules then ok ta

I think you may both be right here, We were certainly allowed to move out as far as Northampton on the understanding we were building a new ground, and in reality we are no further on that project 9 years down the road.
But FFP came into force in 2011/12 and the wording initially was;
"Clubs can spend up to 5m euros (£3.9m) more than they earn per assessment period, although, under this monitoring period, total losses of 45m euros (£35m) were permitted as long as clubs had owners who could cover such amounts."
I understand the assessment period was 3 years, and we were at Northampton in 2013 but returned to the Ricoh in 2014 IIRC.
I assume SISU convinced the EFL they could cover the overspend. Not sure what that was but I doubt we overspent by £35M in those 3 years.
Would be interested on the thoughts of others on this.

Looking at the Expected goals and Expected goals against really shows how lucky teams like Blackburn, Huddersfield are and how unlucky we are!

When someone besmirches Grendel’s beloved Derby County:

2-0, Forest have been dreadful

Perfect if it stays like that, but hopefully Cardiff score another couple.

That Tommy Doyle Cardiff have got on loan from Man City looks a very useful footballer. Cardiff players being a bit dirty (Ralls in particular) but they have looked better than their league position today.

fernandopartridge · Jan 30, 2022

Finished 2-1, deserved win for Cardiff. Cardiff very workmanlike

We were docked points as we broke rules and if it was Derby moving to Burton (well unless we got there first) and were showing cartoons of new grounds I think many on here would be crying foul. Of course we did. I suspect Sisu and their appetite for legal fighting would have deterred the EFL and yes we broke rules as we deceived them regarding the rules of being out of the city

Covkid1968# · Jan 30, 2022

We keep getting handed a drink at last chance saloon…..we have another one with Forest losing and Albion starting to implode. Win our games in hand and we are in the play offs. Will that happen… of course not. But we are still propping up the bar in that particular saloon pretending we are going to lift the glass to our parched goal dry lips and down it in 19. It’s all very frustrating

Massive respect to derby today! Rooney building his pedigree dispute turning down Everton.
