A rumour on Twitter that Danny Pugh who was released from Leeds in May will be another summer recruit in the next few days.

Not a rumour from CoventryITK by the way..

I suggested Pugh in an article I did for FLW as the championship replacement for Adams. http://footballleagueworld.co.uk/coventry-boss-looks-to-the-championship-for-adams-replacement-257/

Leeds fans don't seem very complimentary about him

Best argument yet to sign him.

SlowerThanPlatt · Jul 15, 2014

Would definitely take him.

ccfc92 · Jul 15, 2014

Watched him a lot at Bournemouth, good player. Can go missing in games, but can change a game with some brilliance. A moussa type player really.

Apparently its danny pugh and kevin kyle as the two trialists.

I actually didn't mind him. Not as bad as people thought IMO.

I don't particularly like Leeds so wouldn't take their fans opinion serious

Where has this come from about KK? The only other place I saw it was in a rumours site which anyone can post on. And it doesn't look like him on the training footage in Skyblue Player.

Pugh Pugh Barney McGrew.... he is another out of the Man U academy but never really got a chance there.

We are after Danny Pugh and Barney McGrew, as you say, but also have shown interest Marc Pugh from Bournemouth, Scott Cuthbert from Leyton Orient and Dean Grubb from Weston Super Mare.

Now if only there was a footballer called Dribble we could be interested in, we'd have a full house.

So the new stadium will be in Trumpton?

Otis · Jul 16, 2014

No, stadium not big enough there, so plumped for Camberwick Green.

standupforcity · Jul 16, 2014

KK would be a serious step backwards...if that's at all possible!

Otis · Jul 16, 2014

It would. It's just one K away from the KKK.

Surely Andy Dibble's still around?

Anyway, Pugh's another long line of players who did well for Leeds on loan and then turned mediocre once we'd signed him. Can play in lots of different positions but is average at best in all of them. Will occasionally wow you with a good game but don't be fooled, especially if it's early on. Don't remember him as being particularly injury prone and probably qualifies as a defensively solid left back at League 1 level but if you asked me to name one thing he was good at I'd struggle. He offers nothing further forward but will score 1 great goal a season that makes you think that maybe there's more to come. There isn't.

torchomatic · Jul 16, 2014

He was worse. It was the indiscipline just as much as the lack of goals.

Thanks for your positive post today

Re-assuring - solid player by the sounsd of it.

A reasonable squad has at least one player for two positions. With keeper sorted, we can now say the same for defence: Pugh, Haynes, Willis, Phillips, Johnson, Clarke, Seabourne, Webster.

Midfield is a work in progress - O'Brien, Swanson, Fleck, Baker, Thomas, Coulibaly - with a couple of players from the academy, we are probably in need of another centre mid e.g. Bailey, Prutton, Robinson etc.

Obviously we need a few more options in attack!

AFCCOVENTRY · Jul 16, 2014

O'Brien can play right back as well and by all accounts his best games for Barnsley was in that position.

Sorry for being a pedant ,know what you mean though spider.
