Getting very worried! (1 Viewer)

Half-Irish Sky Blue · Aug 31, 2016

I hope I'll be proved wrong but with 25mins to go I'm pretty worried at the state of our squad - doesn't feel like a promotion winning side.

Just a hunch, but feels like a smaller budget than last year, and I can't see any evidence of Madison's money being invested as it was claimed it would be. Not good...

Maddison money was spent on Jones and keeping the club afloat

Martin180 · Aug 31, 2016

We have less loanees and more permanent signed players on longer contracts , also Mogga stated last night he was going to look at some of the out of contract players over the coming weeks .

Both Saturday and Tuesday night the squad looked fine to me and certainly with a couple of players returning we can start moving up the table

ccfcway · Aug 31, 2016

If we don't get them tonight, TM will be still working on free transfers. IUts not the end of the world tonight, just the end of the loanees

We had a very strong bench on Saturday.

Thanks for clearing that up, phew" who would have thought it was so straight forward.

Why worried? It's L1. There's a cigarette paper of difference between pretty much every team, and between most of the players too. We probably won't go up, and probably won't go down.

exactly. It will be even stronger with, Rose, Stokes + K Thomas in the coming weeks / months competing

steve82 · Aug 31, 2016

As already covered we can still sign out of contract players. Granted they may not be up to much but TM may find a good one hopefully.
All were missing out on today is another youth in on loan that many don't want as they want experience. Cannot win...

Doesn't feel like a massively strong squad having not scored a goal in the league

JulianDarbyFTW · Aug 31, 2016

Did we not score last week?

Martin180 · Aug 31, 2016

Scored a few last night too

It's not going to be massively strong but the majority of them are our players and our players on longer contracts and most of them are players with a future as opposed to players with their best days behind them

Half-Irish Sky Blue · Aug 31, 2016

Not in the league though? Not saying it's all doom and gloom, just pretty mediocre.

rybccfc · Aug 31, 2016

As owners you have to question the fact that they are completely unwilling to invest even though a lot of teams around us have. Not being funny but when the players that Scunthorpe and Barnsley sign excite you more than anyone we have signed then that is a major issue.

We scored in the league last week. Thanks for signing up to start such a positive thread though.

We've played some really good football this season without having a lot of luck in front of goal .Far from mediocre

Sorry, didn't know I had to make sure my opinion matched with your before I shared it. I'll bare that in mind in he future.

JulianDarbyFTW · Aug 31, 2016

I'm starting to wonder if I've accidentally wandered onto the Manic Depressive forum. We're either the best thing since sliced bread or the worst thing since I got a scotum caught in my zipper. There's hardly ever balance to anything.

Half-Irish Sky Blue · Aug 31, 2016

One more signing on the way apparently according to telegraph...

You did, this is a Coventry city forum! ;-)

Will that mean you make a second thread , half - Irish , bi- polar sky blue

Surely brainless people shouldn't be allowed on this forum?

Or is that a pre-requisite.

Northampton scored, yet we drew. Discuss.

Maybe just slightly less worried!

Yep, good point. Was at the game too. Whoops!

JulianDarbyFTW · Aug 31, 2016

*Insert bi-polar bear joke here*

Gazolba · Aug 31, 2016

I'd rather we not sign players just for the sake of it. The last thing we need is more useless baggage.
TM is right to be patient and seek out players who can really add something to the squad.

Yep, I'm sure you were.

You want me to post a picture of my season ticket?
What are you here for mark? Just to put down fellow fans or add to a conversation?

We have scored twice and let in 5 in 5 games. So the margins between success a failure have been slim. We were unlucky to lose at Swindon and unlucky not to win a couple of the home games. Only Bradford where we looked second best, Bradford will best most team's at home. We have had a few injury setbacks too.
