BREAKING: Coventry City sign Reading defender Dominic Hyam

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Are we just signing anyone who's had a spell at Portsmouth? :emoji_smile:

 

[Nick]

Interesting he is set to go into the under 23's and battle for a place.

What does this mean for Harries?

Just checked Wiki says he joined but never played....

Pompey B haha

 

[Edgey95]

Tall lad, think He's starting for the u23s. Good to see some early business though

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Development/back-up player, don't imagine he will feature much in the league unless he seriously impresses or we are unlucky with injuries.

Harries will be leaving most likely. Big clubs like Liverpool and Spurs have an interest in him and I can't see him playing much for us next season.

 

[Nick]

Nice touch!

"It is understood he and O’Brien are part of Robins’ plans to build a squad and club, not just the first team."

Suggests the new keeper won't be number one as well, good to see a squad being built.

Someone's been fucking about with the Large Hadron collider again

WTF is going on??????????????????????????????????

Well Yakubu didn't go too well, did he?

But fuckin' 'ell, come on! SIX signings in May?
MR says he is building a Club not a team.
SISU or not (and they must have given their backing), this is SO encouraging!

PUSB

Seems more of a player to ease in over time rather than straight in.
Loan spells at Portsmouth, Dagenham and Aldershot
Hard to call this one but surely a positive building a squad of our own players if this ones officially announced.
Id like a experienced head at the back now we've signed a inexperienced keeper.

i wonder if that is it for cbs now? i doubt he would waste a loan solely on u23 squad. i imagine he will be on subs bench every game.

[covcity4life]

[clint van damme]

sorry to hear that. I think he's going to be a top player.

oh just read your post back ha

 

[Covstu]

All positive but they cannot sustain this volume of intake without some being exited. Clearly the window is not officially open so start selling yet but it is inevitable.

 

[Garryb80]

Sounds like a back up central defender as well as one for the future. Imagine he will play cup games and be on the bench to begin with.

But I genuinely wouldn't object to any sales of the remaining players. Willis would fetch a decent fee and is replaceable, Stevenson isn't in the first choice team as it is and would again fetch a fee same with Harries.

Signings like this one make me think the budget is nowhere near as bad as people make out. If our budget was so tight we wouldn't waste in on 'fringe' players. I understand we need depth but that wouldn't be the priority if we had a tiny budget.

The budget is bad if he was going after players out of our range.

Forget transfers: The Under-23 star you can get excited about at YOUR club

Featured in this list and likened to Jonny Evans

 

[Captain Dart]

At this rate they'll be a first team before the friendlies start.

nothing on the offal?

SIGNING: Dominic Hyam agrees to join Coventry City

Hyam, Harries, Willis, Turnbull.

Could well be 1 in 1 out for CB's after this
