[SlowerThanPlatt]

Coventry Telegraph ‏@CovTel_CCFC 8m City hoping to complete paperwork on a striker and wide player to join on loan this morning. #skyblues #pusb

Would imagine they would be young players. Any names?

[Sbarcher]

I'd take a guess at..... David and Peter

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Coventry Telegraph ‏@CovTel_CCFC 2m The 18-year-olds are set to join from high end Premier League and Championship clubs and will go straight into the squad. #skyblues #pusb

 

[SkyBlueSid]

Will they sign in time to see tomorrow's match called off. I wonder.

Age doesn't matter and loans don't matter. Numbers in and points on the table is all that matters. Let's have it.

I hope the wide* player can fit into Sicky-wicky-twix-fields!!! LOL! Just a bit of banter, guys!!!

(*I'm suggesting the player's got a wide body, rather than being a winger!)

Sorry Guys I think our signings policy Is in tatters and Incoherence has ruled the day .This was not the route that SP has been talking about and does'nt match the Pressley view from the Big CT Interview back in mid November .

If we're going down the youth route I'd rather Garner and rankin got their chance ,however don't get me wrong or take this the wrong way ,I truly hope these guys work out for us,I just get the feeling they're numbers to please the fans rather than the manager.

Coventry City expect to complete the loan signings of a striker and a winger this morning.


The 18-year-old duo from top-end Premier League and Championship clubs are expected to go straight into the squad to face Bradford City at Sixfields tomorrow.


Steven Pressley said: "They are young players with energy and hunger to prove themselves. We are hoping to complete the paperwork by mid-day and they are ready to play tomorrow."

The #skyblues have signed winger Michael Petrasso on an initial 28 day loan from Queens Park Rangers http://bit.ly/1cCYzvh #pusb

 

[lewys33]

I hope its that 17 year old lazio player

 

[skybluejelly]

Well we need a striker with delfonusa likely to miss Saturdays game through injury

Oh shit, George Michael and Andrew Ridgely, that's all we need a pair of Careless Wankers.

HA Ha!!

"After continuing his good form into the 2013–14 season with the under-21 squad, Petrasso was rewarded with a loan move to League One side Oldham Athletic on 22 November 2013"

If thats a reward, coming to CCFC must be a punishment, wonder what he's done

"started off a bit shakey but I thought the last few games of his spell he was unplayable at times."

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Petrasso is expected to be joined at Sixfields by Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom, who recently spent a month with Brentford.

From CT

Too little too late

 

[ccfcway]

Too little too late

Maybe to help for a play off push, but I would argue that if its a choice between Baker, Jordan Clarke or an Arsenal youngster to play up front tomorrow, I know which i would choose

 

[covcity4life]

Too little too late

yup that council 10 pt deduction really fucked us up

"started off a bit shakey but I thought the last few games of his spell he was unplayable at times."

I love the ambiguity of this quote. I remember looking along the bookshop shelves for a read at an airport before jetting off on my summer holiday one year.

I came across a dust jacket that had splashed across its front, "You will look hard to find a better read." Needless to say I did keep looking and bought something else!
