I've never heard of most of the players we sign.
First Canadian to play for Coventry? Any stattos?
I bet Pressley is spitting teeth.
We're going nowhere.
Peter Ndlovu, Ian Wallace, Micky Gynn, Dean Emmerson, Gary Gillespie or Phil Babb
Compare to Kevin Drinkell, Freddie Eastwood, Julien Joachim, Robert Jarni, or that midfielder we Signed from Norwich because he jumped ship and I believe he has drifted out the league, annoyed his name escapes me but then again doesn't deserve to be mentioned.

In fairness, not many of us had heard of Nuddy, Gynn, or Emerson before they signed. Even GG and Babb probably went on to be bigger names after they left us.
I don't mind if I haven't heard of our new signings, especially at this level. Some of our less able players were big names before they got here, but then rapidly started to head the other way (usually whilst on our payroll). Tim Sherwood, Keith O'Neill, for example - I'm sure there are more.![]()
Why? He would have been involved in signing him. Why are we going nowhere because we have signed a player? I assume you are familiar with him to pass that judgement?
He's 18, he's 5'6", he's played 11 senior games and scored 1 goal. I hope my gut feeling is wrong.
Terry Gibson 5' 4" 98 games 43 goals and David Speedie 5' 7" 122 games 31 goals, those are their Cov stats.He's 18, he's 5'6", he's played 11 senior games and scored 1 goal. I hope my gut feeling is wrong.
Absolutely tore Cyrus Christie apart earlier this season.
Can we at least give these players the chance to disappoint us before moaning about how disappointing they are?
Well the obvious difference there is signing young players to develop against big names entering the twilight of their career looking for one last pay day.
