Have that many players been signed up ? think this is a slow market this money is short all over, we have bagged three reckon we’ll get another couple plus a loan or two. Still a month to go and two months until the window shuts.
Anything over £2m and I’d sell up. Main priority is keeping hold of Gyok, Hamer & Sheaf.
I’d say realistically £8m to £10m, but I’d also don’t think we’d be crazy to demand £15m from a PL club
Agreed, O'Hare is the one I'd fear losing the most. Heartbeat of our team, warrior.
proper Guano!!
to be fair thou all 3 have there own individual qualities, that once gone they are going to be hard to replace
As much as I like you you would never get 6-8 million for yourself
Best case scenario: we keep all three, they have a storming start to the season putting us top six in the process, and we get to ask silly fees in January.
Wouldn't it be best to keep them all season then and go for promotion
Well yes. I had assumed we gave them contract extensions to sell beyond this summer and with even bigger prices on their heads.
If O’Hare is sold it will be the biggest kick in the bollox to us supporters since Robbie Keane, he’s under contract and as far as I know seems happy here first team regular & hasn’t asked to leave.
You have a short memory, we’ve sold players with clear international potential for a relative pittance in the past.
For the last time, don't use Nixon as a source for panic he hasn't got a clue what is going on (just ask derby fans who he fucked over royally)
Mark Robins has provided a progress report on Coventry City’s recruitment drive, outlining how many new players he expects to sign this summer.
Speaking from the club’s training camp in Spain, the Sky Blues boss said this morning that at this stage of the pre-season he’s looking at a maximum of four fresh faces, all of whom will be loan deals for the back end of the pitch.
We literally have no pot to piss in.

Payments to investors by SISU will always come first...Joy has openly said in the past, that her first duty is to them, and as a hedge fund manager, this should be no surprise.
The welfare of the club, by investing in the squad, is secondary (at best)
Loan players will still cost us money. If we don't sell any of our 'big' players I would be quite happy with that.
The better loan players are likely to only be avaialable closer to, or after the season starts so I can see a lot more bed wetting on here between now and then however

It's kind of what I expected and at least it seems to cover the area I think we need the most improvement. If we can get the right loanees then it'd be fine.
That is of course assuming that he means that that is what will happen if no-one is sold. If we sold one of the star names I'd hope he could look for more permanent solutions (though he'd also have to replace whoever we lost).
I also guess the maximum of four is probably dependent on if he can get one of the squad players like Walker or Waghorn out on loan as well, giving him a bit more salary to play with to either go for better, more expensive loans or an extra body.
Take that with a ladle of salt. Robins never show his hand, we are short on funds no doubt but he isnt going to say anything other than the absolute minimum to abate the mad fans. we clearly have funds put aside for decent wages or we wouldn't have chased JCS.
4 good loans and nobody else leaving would be a success. But there is going to be a huge turnover next summer
Yep, we will need a big turnover once we are in the Premier league!
