    Callum O'Hare Replacement

    The problem we seem to have is both Wright and Palmer have had their best games on the left running at the defenders. Great when one is out or when fresh legs are needed but not best when you want both on at the same time. We're a work in progress. Will see what Robins has planned. 6th and...

    Callum O'Hare Replacement

    He's under contract so would expect a fee for him if he leaves. Would like him to stay but if we receive a fee for him I trust Robins to use it wisely and attempt getting an upgrade with it. We don't need a near full team like we did before this season so will be looking more for players that...

    Callum O'Hare Replacement

    What do you mean by expendable? Not taking a guess here.

    Callum O'Hare Replacement

    The one where he had made the chance for himself but had players in front of him and we had a player to the left of him unmarked. I'm all for players having a shit in goal but if someone is unmarked in front of goal?

    Uber for Matt?

    I fully agree. Their expecting us to agree to there educated views whilst showing they're education may not be up to standard.

    Callum O'Hare Replacement

    Palmer on the left? Wright is a strange one. Plays his best games on the left then cutting in. Plays some great crosses in from the left. When he plays through the middle there seems to be something missing. Lack of composure in the middle? Needs to bulk up a little to play in the middle...

    Championship out of contract players June 2024

    I agree with everything other than the young, proven Championship players. They come available but at a very high premium. We just got ripped apart by one from Plymouth. But we would have to break our record signing again to get him. But at least as good as O'Hare.

    That's the difference in recruitment between us and Sunderland. They got rid of Mowbray because they want a coach who chooses the side but doesn't get a say in who comes to the club. Mowbray isn't a yes man and kept on about needing quality up front. Those in charge just want young players who...

    Not played since last season. So totally not match fit and to add to that 33 so no spring chicken.

    Exciting times for all skyblues

    I would go as far as the best outside the Prem. He hasn't just taken us from League 2 to being so close last season. Twice we have had to play without a proper home game. Having players sold at a bad time like last season with Hyam. Normally about the lowest budget. And the squad he took over...

    Of course we should be looking for an upgrade. But look at last season. Record amount of clean sheets for Wilson. He isn't a bad keeper. Every other position on the pitch was more important yet we still got Collins.

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    There's a difference between getting a goal or two and still not being 1st choice but a bit part player and getting 90 minutes each game. Now he has 2 90 minutes and 2 goals. Playing well for the team other than the goals. Nobody in their right mind would choose Godden to start over Simms. He...

    Transfer targets

    Mbappe is looking for a new club. Not sure we can afford him though.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Friday 23rd Feb

    Why do so many look at one part of what a player does on the pitch and ignore everything else? Collins seems to be a better shot stopper. His distribution is certainly better. But his handling and general command of the penalty area is quite poor. This leads to chances to our opposition...

    Don't worry. She will turn into her mother over the years so you will know what tou have to look forward to 😂😂😂 Mine was an absolute mare. Enjoyed winding her up though. I was the only person who ever got away with it. She would shout at my FiL to get me to stop but he would already have picked...

    Remember it well. We had a few chances but both sides cancelled each other out. Had a cracking kebab after the game and a chat with some of their supporters. Said we were the best side they had seen so far....

    Too much respect for another supporter who comes in here and is friendly? Should we just tell everyone to fuck off that isn't a CCFC supporter? When people treat me with respect they get respect back. When people treat me like a dickhead they find out that I can be the biggest dickhead they...
