Who would bid for a player who has just spent 11 months out and not played at all and who is out of contract at the end of the season?

Us!

One of our lads needs to virtually climb inside Tom Nichols shorts, keep him quiet, he's a bit of a fan fave.

odds on a hat trick ?

JeffB · Dec 30, 2016

Peterborough are looking forward to a game against a competitive team which we are all proud to represent the city.....so we are sending Coventry ladies

Only on a 4 year contract.

McCann, Wright, Sterry, McBean loans all end, their last game tomorrow pending developments.
Four Coventry City loan deals set to expire this weekend

I'm sure they'll give it their all.

Tbh, I am feeling a sneaky 2-0 Cov win, but that's probably the beer talking

matesx · Dec 30, 2016

It's definately the beer talking

Nick · Dec 31, 2016

Woke up feeling confident, just a 1-0 loss

that's depressing, not that any of them will be big losses but not only are we shit, we're now shit with severely depleted numbers.

Would it be an exaggeration to say that this will be the most important transfer window we've ever gone into?

rupert_bear · Dec 31, 2016

Can't score goals and concede plenty recipe for disaster, I know it's been said a number of times before just what pocessed Tony Mowbray AND Mark Venus to bring this collective dross to the club. Do they especially Venus really sit back satisfied with what they have done ? Can't see anything more than a loss but to make things worse we need players, plural, in tomorrow ready for the Bolton match Monday or we'll get another trouncing

phildownunder · Dec 31, 2016

Kick off for me is 11pm. Last few games I`ve switched off and gone to bed by half time.

Never been too fussed about seeing the new year in and afraid I may well be asleep by the time this one comes in.

Sterry will be a loss, he puts in a real shift. Page has been shocking recently. McCann had some decent games but has switched off with Venus in charge and has his head focussed on enjoying the USA. McBean kept himself fit but we've seen so little of him... if not Page then Haynes deserves another go?

We seem to struggle as to where to play Andy Rose. He is very energetic and wins most things in the air. Would it be worth trying him up top with Sordell to play off him Defend from the front, and he will get on the end of crosses.

I agree - we've nothing to lose by trying Rose upfront with Sordell as long as they get decent service from the wide players. We can't defend, so we need to get some goals from somewhere.

Otis · Dec 31, 2016

Rose up front? Don't get that at all. We have enough options up front. The obvious combination if we are ditching Tudgay is to play George Thomas alongside Sordell.

Would much rather we play people in their natural positions rather than have us tinker and play players out of position in the hope that it somehow works.

Bet Rose has a better goals per minute ratio

Otis · Dec 31, 2016

And if so he has done that from midfield. He has never played striker to my knowledge.

Haven't we spent all season moaning about playing players out of position?

SkyBlueM · Dec 31, 2016

Struggling to find any optimism 2-0 to Posh

Yes there are plenty of options up front. The trouble is that they're all crap! I think George Thomas has the potential to be a decent player one day. But he's more of a no. 10 who plays behind the main striker. I believe we need some physicality and height alongside Sordell and so would take a gamble and play Rose there in preference to GT.

skybluejelly · Dec 31, 2016

hopefully slade has had a bit more time to get his methods across now..we need a win for some confidence ..I am hopeful for a one nil win ..but would settle for a draw..setting off in about an hour so fingers crossed

Thought it might be a tactic where Rose won headers and we could feed off knock downs. Especially if we play wingers?

Terry Gibson's perm · Dec 31, 2016

3v0 defeat even the consolation goals will dry up, when can I put Slade out on my messages

trevelfarandwide · Dec 31, 2016

Huge gap between us and Peterborough, their form is stable, and ours is the worst in the league...I simply can't see anything but another battering, sadly.

3-0/3-1 Peterborough. One more nail to the coffin.

shmmeee · Dec 31, 2016

I've got a weird feeling we are going to click and smash them today. Don't know why and probably wildly wrong.

Really don't, but Im getting 5-1.

Nick · Dec 31, 2016

50p at 200/1 is an easy way to get £ 100.50

Watch it be 4-1 or 6-1 now, or even a 5-2.

This moment of optimism is probably going to go in about 2 or 3 minutes so I am going to milk it.

Self-medicating by sniffing glue isn't the best, mate, I'm trying to give up too. ;-)

Kingokings204 · Dec 31, 2016

We will lose but it's by how many. 2-0 posh. A goal in each half.

Until we can bring in players then forget it.

Sky Blue Harry H · Dec 31, 2016

If we were playing a top level side (Prem etc), being organised wouldn't be enough to get a result 99 times out of 100 with our current group; however, being organised, well set up and with the correct attitude ought to get us something on a fairly regular basis at this level (yes, we will still lose some). I'm hoping Slade can sort this out (although those about to leave may have their heads elsewhere - particularly if we go behind). We need the changeover of players asap

johnwillomagic · Dec 31, 2016

Have we ever played 4-4-2 this season with our two most experienced pros of Sordell and Tudguy up front together?
I don't think we have and cannot believe it!! Come on boys let's do ourselves proud today.

He was better than Turnball, without doubt! Come back Malaga. All I forgiven (althought to be fair I thought you looked alright first time round)

He is currently playing in the fourth tier of French football. I wonder who those PL teams who were desperate to sign him were?

covmark · Dec 31, 2016

Can't see anything other than another miserable defeat.
3-0 posh

All the 5/6 Posh has gone but 8/11 is still a huge price.

Esoterica · Dec 31, 2016

3-0 defeat with the team drifting through the game with the uncertainty of January's coming and goings hanging over them. Stevenson sitting on the bench all game fuelling the 'already sold' speculation. Turnbull's most useful contribution being finally getting the bit of almond from between his teeth that has been bugging him since he ate his Christmas Pudding.

torchomatic · Dec 31, 2016

Any team news yet? And on an unrelated match, is it 3pm on Monday? Could be my last of the season. Not sure if I'm lucky or not.

Yeah I think it is 3PM.

Does that mean your lad can't go Shame as I know he genuinely does love CCFC!
