Wanted; 2 x prolific Division 3 goalscorers

Pay: about 50% of the going rate

Club: Coventry City FC

Home Ground; 35 miles from Coventry

Average "Home" Support: 1,200 floods permitting

Prospects; 10 point reduction, small squad, must sell to buy - otherwise a bit grim

Manager Capability: Awesome considering the above

Contract Terms; 6 months for the above to sink in then permission to jump ship

Yes I can see a long queue waiting to join the Pressley express - just about sums it up really - makes you weep, demoralised and very angry - nuff said

When it's written down like this you're right it makes you want to weep.
We've just lost our leading goalscorer,his strike partner is sidelined,and who else is going through the exit door ?
But we've still got Pressley haven't we,I'll repeat we've still got Pressley haven't we ? sorry but you can never be sure anymore !

I thought this was going to be plans for a new theme park at the new stadium!

You could have the "Emotional Rollercoaster" the "(Storm in a) Teacups"...

Percy are you one of the many cov fans swimming in that large river in Cairo - de Nile.

When clubs like Rotherham are seen as more attractive than us it just shows how far we have fallen. Pressley can sell himself but the club from a far looks a shambles.

Shame that Villa lad turned down the chance to come here on loan.

Damn you Sisu, damn you to Hell!

Have you ever considered re-hab???

What has changed we've always been a feeder club unless we can get promoted to "todays premier league" where TV money is ridiculous unlike before and then manage to build a decent sqaud but even then we'd be a feeder club. I see no mention of our terrific away support and prospects well from the 10 games aprox ive been to this season - play with a decent high spirited young team who like to pass the ball unlike west ham etc and with a little help not a million miles away from a 6th place push

lighten up!!

The average league one wage is £80k per annum (£1,538.46 per week) are you suggesting that we're only offering wages of £40k per annum?

Pressley can Sell himself? ........to whom?........this man is the most honest, talented, forward thinking, hard working manager we have had for many years. Sell himself?....all he has ever said is that he has a job to do at this club and he will see it through, and he will, if that means we have him till the summer then so be it.

The man deserves a big team playing in a big stadium, I would like that to be us but it ain't going to happen, and when he leaves us for a Premier league club, I will have nothing but respect for him because he deserves it and he deserves better.
