    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    And the final two were down to a combination of Godden and Tavares. Wonder if they could the same in the Championship, coming on with fresh legs at around 80 mins!

    Victor Torp

    Not sure that the League you come from is as important as your international appearances, particularly from U21 on. Torp has 27 international caps from U17 to U20, scoring 3 goals. He was called up once to U21 squad in 2021 but did not play. Thanks Wikipedia! The quoted fee suggests he is a...

    Transfer targets

    Yes. Used to play for Singers FC. Great team! Downside is that Talentless is now 130 years old and probably a bit injury-prone?

    Transfer Rumour David Brekalo

    What has Binks done wrong? I think he may well be a surprise package. Someone we may rely on throughout the season.

    Transfer Rumour Van Ewijk - Confirmed

    Takes me back to the days of Willie Humphries and Ronnie Rees in the early 60s! Humphries was Jimmy HIll first signing I believe. The climb up the leagues had begun with speed and trickery on the wings. As a teenager, I'd never seen anything so exciting. I was reminded of that yesterday when...

    Pre (and hopefully Post) Match Plans

    Any Sky Sports pubs in South East London where unfortunate Sky Blues fans who didn't manage to get tickets are now planning to hang out on Saturday afternoon? Or is everyone going to the Wembley area to watch the game somewhere either inside or outside the stadium?

    First city game

    Until a week or two ago, I thought my first game was 1952/3 or 1953/4 when I was six or seven years old. But there was a gallery of city shirts over the years in recent thread that said we stopped wearing blue and white stripes in 1953/4 and went over to white with a single wide blue stripe...

    David Duckham

    So sad. I used to sit next to him at school. I knew him before he learned to catch. Even then he was quick enough sometimes to pick a dropped ball up and still run with it. That's why he, like me, was only a regular in the Henry VIII Under 12s Second XV. Can't for the life of me remember...
