    Transfer Rumour Oliver Dovin

    I really like Dovin. I'm sure though when players are dropped from the first team, there are supportive conversations held and this is where the value of good management and coaching comes into it. I doubt players find out on the day nor whether it comes as a shock, it will likely be done with...

    Match Thread Preston vs. Coventry City - Match Thread - Sat 19th Oct

    Yep this was also the game where we switched away from 5 at the back for the first time in however long and our results transformed over night from that point. Simms came on as a sub on the right, we started playing the ball in front of Simms into space for him to run onto and looked very...

    Match Thread Coventry City-SWFC Match Thread- Saturday 5th October

    I'm sure Robins praises the team plenty behind closed doors. I don't mind how Robins discusses strengths of the opposition in interviews. Indicates he isn't underestimating any teams and there's no complacency. I just think he is being realistic as every team in this league can be dangerous on...

    Match Thread Coventry City-SWFC Match Thread- Saturday 5th October

    Agree with bringing Simms in. Although I think trying Simms wider could work and he has looked dangerous in that position and where there is space for him to run into with or onto the ball. If you look at a few of his goals at previous clubs, he seems very effective from that position. I just...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    The club usually announces once there are no more ins or outs on a deadline day so I suspect they are trying to do something. Sent from my SM-A346B using Tapatalk

    Transfer Rumour Norman Bassette

    We aren't going to go the whole season without injuries. Bringing in these players ensure we avoid / reduce both player burnout and remain competitive when those injuries inevitably happen. There will be players who will start on the bench and then probably get a run of 10-15 games starting all...

    Match Thread Bristol City (A) 24th August 12:30 KO

    I like both Da Silva and Bidwell but they offer different things. I feel like we've seen the best of Da Silva when used as a sub so far. His footwork and ball retention is usually very good and he offers an attacking option when we need to turn it up a notch against tired opposition. I would...

    Luis Binks tonight

    Spurs had Binks a few years ago to be fair! [emoji14] Sent from my SM-A346B using Tapatalk

    Haji Wright

    I seemed to notice more than normal last night how brilliant he was at receiving and controlling the ball. Passes were being flown at him at height and pace from all over and he just seemed take the ball down from his chest to his feet without any disruption to his run or movement. Sent from...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Oxford Utd - Match Thread - Friday 16th Aug 8pm KO

    In my opinion other teams "will" likely waste lots of chances that we did. And they do. That's why games aren't 8 -0 week in week out. Our team aren't the only ones, it's about taking 25 / 30% of those chances and we will be alright. What probably looks like easy chances from the our seats up in...

    10 ENGLISH CLUBS THAT NO LONGER EXIST!

    This is quite sobering. While it's healthy to have views and opinions on how the club is run at various times ( positives and negatives), I think when reflecting on the fact that some clubs no longer exist is a reminder that we should try not to take having our club along with the emotions...

    Match Thread Stoke away 10th August 12:30 - Opening day!

    EMC will be one our outstanding performers this season once the team learns to play to his strengths. In my opinion it's fairly clear to see how talented he is and if you've ever followed and seen him play before. Just be patient, he will be a fans favourite soon. Sent from my SM-A346B using...

    What about our Leaky Defence ?

    Defence usually starts from the front. It isn't always players in isolation but the whole system being applied. If the team is defending as a unit and trying some new principles to last season then let's see.

    Southgate

    Consideration needs to be taken to the fact international management appears to be totally different to club level. International managers spend far less time with the players, have very little time to implement a style of football and have the challenge of bringing a group of players together...

    Copa America

    The positive side being that it would add a few more numbers to his price tag. A thriving and confident Wright at International level will only benefit us.

    Transfer Rumour Marko Stamenic

    Nope I don't think so. He looked like an interesting player at Blackpool but a bit of a luxury type. Wouldn't say no to him here but not sure if he would fit into our style.

    Season tickets for 2024/2025 season

    I understand the principle of not buying something you can't attend. But the club and football in general just rings differently for me and maybe others. I can't make every game as I live 140 miles away. It would probably be cheaper for me to buy single tickets. But I like having my own seat and...
