AFCCOVENTRY · Jul 6, 2015

Good signing. Will be made captain I believe.

Nick · Jul 6, 2015

Will he be putting him at Right Back do we think?

Where has it been confirmed?

covcity4life · Jul 6, 2015

nothing on the website

Otis · Jul 6, 2015

It's an AFC Exclusive!

Otis · Jul 6, 2015

Ricketts today and Jonny Scurvy and Mal Nutrition tomorrow.

pusbccfc · Jul 6, 2015

I think Jim will remain captain as he will be certain to start all games. I can't see Ricketts starting every week.

According to my Wolves mate any where along the back but left and centre being his best positions. Can score a screamer of a goal from time to time to as well apparently.

If AFC is right and we have signed him he could be the difference this season.

Robccfc87 · Jul 6, 2015

Not meaning to be negative but the difference between what? We will need a bit more than Ricketts to make any difference at all.

Kingokings204 · Jul 6, 2015

Anyone got any proof?

Good signing if so I would say

CCFC_Charlie · Jul 6, 2015

Even if it's not his natural position I'd much rather Ricketts in the centre than Aaron Martin

skybluebeduff · Jul 6, 2015

I believe the OP, but no linky, no likey.

kg82 · Jul 6, 2015

Got to agree - I can't find it reported anywhere.

skybluebeduff · Jul 6, 2015

Even Andy Turner is unsure on this news.

chiefdave · Jul 6, 2015

I won't believe it until Cov City Mad confirm it.

That's because posters on here are unsure.

Wheelfass · Jul 6, 2015

Nothing on local radio news and nothing on the CCFC web site. AFC = All. Fkn. Conjecture.

What's the point in posting this without any link to a source or at least mentioning where you've got this from?? So annoying

Guess he's just bored. Oh......and a nob.

covcity4life · Jul 6, 2015

afc you seemed like a good poster.

even if this is confirmed later i am more disapointed than angry with you for a one line post.

ajsccfc · Jul 6, 2015

Is this one of those things where if it happens you come back and say 'told you, wink wink'?

robbieray · Jul 6, 2015

Thought I was bad

CCFC_Charlie · Jul 6, 2015

Why is it that when people post rumours like this they just disappear for ages afterwards?

CovisGod · Jul 6, 2015

Think people need to chill a bit with the name calling. If the OP has seen this somewhere and wanted to post here first fair enough.

This is exactly why I made sure I put Rumour in the title of my thread yesterday, you'd think the bloke had just collectively insulted everyone's Mothers not put what he thinks to be true on an Internet forum.

Bit silly if this is BS though

Think it's called something like lighting the fuse!

Re-watched the Play-Off Final and Ricketts doesn't exactly cover himself in glory when he replaces Nathan Thompson at centre half at 1-0. Rather he plays fullback.

yeh cause it's well hard to type like 4 extra words to say where they heard it

rupert_bear · Jul 6, 2015

Obviously crap then, that should make you happy

Will be a very good signing for league one, no nonsense, level headed, experienced and can defend. A threat at set pieces too.

Decent pro for the younger ones to look up too, maybe a little harsh to judge him on that performance when his fitness levels were not at their peak, but overall, full back or centre back, he will bring much needed stability and he is a leader.

Don't get me wrong it's a decent signing. Just rather we play him at fullback where he has played the majority of his career.

Chipfat · Jul 6, 2015

He is not the best at CB or LB,, he has had a decent career and in his day was useful enough to earn a decent living,, but end of career not going to get better and if anything with end up being compared no matter if you like it or not to Webster... TM has a job on and by now probably see's how hard it is to attract players to the club you either get unproven youngsters or old heads looking for security of a 2 year deal..

TM will use the kids he has or hope to get a Grant type of player when the prem and Championship clubs settle on availability of fringe players..

Maybe because it's a guess and they are sitting back with fingers crossed hoping it comes true?

simonregis · Jul 6, 2015

I've never met such bunch of bleeding sissies in all my life. What is harm in AFC posting this? If he heard something then why not put it up? If you guys has such a bloody boring life that you have to be glued to this site or other to get a fix then that is your problem and not AFC's. I thought people work? Maybe that's an old fashioned concept? Either way why don't you come on here from time to time, read the threads, don't take them as gospel and get on with life.

LB87ccfc · Jul 6, 2015

Great signing, a real leader and someone for the younger lads to look up too, experienced pro no nonsense and can defend.

covcity4life · Jul 6, 2015

so now ricketts is done, lets get reda signe dup then sign some midfielders and strikers quick smart!
