They are a more secure choice and more likely to go up despite ballsing it so far, for me it's just a surprise he hasn't really moved up or elsewhere, just hung around the same division nobody really wants to be in.

Unless it was better money than a Huddersfield / Preston type club?

Fleck was a 7 out of 10 at best, we need more than that from our supposedly best player, he in the main has not delivered and won't be missed.

I am no fan of Fleck but if he is getting the kind of money being talked about on here then good luck to him, he must have a fantastic agent.

So much for Tony Mowbray's pulling power, money talks :woot:

Fleck would have been useful to keep. But he doesn't really get his foot in and break up play. He is quite a tidy distributor but plays too deep to really hurt people.
He never really takes a game by the scruff of the neck and does not dictate play enough and in fact can drift out of a game totally. He is not good enough to be your main play maker.
He has got a good deal at Seff United and I never really saw all these Championship clubs waiting to sign him...he just isn't that good. But he has not done too bad at city and seems to have a good attitude so good luck to him. Probably needs a new challenge in fairness.

Feeling totally underwelmed so far. Two average signings, half a squad a lot weaker than last season, no recognised striker capable of scoring goals and tm now talking about loans despite gate increases last season it looks like a minimal transfer budget and we cant even compete with other l1 clubs to retain players.
Sisu saving up for the next court case i think whilst we languish in L1. No ambition and after this season TM will walk away to a club with ambition

First time writing on the forum. Been a Coventry fan for ever following in footsteps of my family.
However it's so negative on this forum!
Yes we have crap owners, yes it's been hard times. But fleck went for money which is fine. TM had replacement already in vlad! How can you say squad is weaker than last season? Same stage last year we had no strikers.
TM I do trust and ok fleck has gone but come on we all knew he would.
Let's wait and see who else comes in. Maybe few surprises yet

Happy for Fleck to leave. He wants to go so get rid. Personally I don't rate him as highly as others. There is talent there and have seen him run games but honestly, he doesn't score many goals and goes missing in games as much as others. Not a massive loss for us IMO and other than money, it's a strange move.

I must be a real bad nob because even at the age of 40 when a player wants to leave I really hate them and wish on them pox,

He has gone for more money.
Can't disagree with him though when he says the owners should give TM a bit more cash.
It's not often you will get a manager of TM's calibre and we should maximise the opportunity when we have it

Pretty much sums it up. Mowbray's comment about not being disappointed was telling.
Was Gadzhev brought in with the thought Fleck might leave.

Flecks gone..doesnt really worry me too much, yes at times he looked pretty good but other times when we needed to step up a gear where was he? Good luck to him but we have lost far far better plsyers than him in the past

Yep, in the second halves of some games I believe we had to recall all our club scouts back to the Ricoh so they could try and help find John Fleck.

Would you have matched wages for fleck that Sheffield offered if it meant not signing other players?
He's just a mediocre league one player. Ok but just ok.
Terry Gibson's perm

I would not and obviously the men that matter didn't want to.

I think he is a very good league one midfielder.
I have no idea how much more Sgeff Utd have paid for him, wages wise.

Decent player, not all that miffed he has gone elsewhere. Yes I would have preferred he had gone to a Championship club cos that would mean we wouldn't need to read people banging on about how he will destroy us this season. I've read a thread on a Sheff Utd forum. I must admit, some of the expectations they have about how he plays the game are wildly incorrect. Somebody has him down as a box to box player who can score goals with regularity, with a great engine... I do believe Gadshev was bought in with an eye on Fleck leaving. Good luck to Fleck but I'm sure he is easily replaced.
