Brilliant Half.
at 20:22 25 Jul 2025

What a press.

Leif Davis position has lost me. In a good way. Is it absolute genius?!? LB/10

Philogene a constant threat and really hard working half.

Azor looks commanding and quality on ball and will only get better with understanding of teammates.

Jack Clarke has struggled a bit but not for want of trying. Just one of those games. Looks like he can be a threat but he is definitely better on left but might just need a bit of time. Defo going to be a threat this season.

Ben Johnson a mixed bad. At times looks a commanding RB and other times a bit safe and not quick to react.

Overall a really dominant half and looks unbelievably fit. Definitely been told to go all out for 60 mins I reckon

Thoughts from first half.
at 18:03 19 Jul 2025

Hirst bang at it.
Dutch destroyer is good on the ball (excellent pass in build up to 2nd). Not completely bossing it but good signs.
Cam has really matured physically. Had an excellent half.
Baggott: we don't need any more CBs. He's been very good.
Philogene. In the final 3rd really dangerous. Looks like creating all the time. In our half a bit lightweight when ball into feet tight or defending. But he can be the Omari replacement no doubt.
Clarke: better on left. Just not getting my h ball on right and more hesitant then when he is cutting in from left.
Szmodics: just doing Szmodics things. Always on the move.

My main thoughts.

Ben Sheaf
at 12:01 19 Jul 2025

Coventry are back in the market and closing in on a £3-4 mil new CM. Having added Grimes and having Eccles, Torp, Allen they are well stocked in there.

General feeling is Sheaf will move on this summer having not been allowed to leave last summer. Had an injury last season and his head was turned by our and other interest.

I'm convinced we will be back in and he's and absolutely ideal Luongo replacement. Proper rolls Royce in the champ. Great on the ball, brilliant in the track back tackle. Believe he can play Prem. Only downside is he tends to miss 10-15 games over a champ season with knocks because he plays the way he does.

For me he is just what we need wand will cost £7-10 mil now. They wanted £20 last summer.

Buabo and Tommy Taylor
at 20:15 13 Jul 2025

What do we think with these guys this year? The logical step is a season long loan. Or there a possibility one of them becomes our 3rd/4th striker this season and gets game time in cups and off the bench sometimes. We do need to find some pathway opportunities for some of our youth. But our ambition being automatic does in some ways make that tricky.

Any others we think might break through to the squad?

Marcus Harness for Free
at 13:21 13 Jul 2025

Anyone any thoughts on why we allowed this to happen on a free. Felt like a bit of a favour to Lee Grant and maybe also to Harness himself?

Felt it was a bit odd though to allow him to go for free. We had an option on his contract for another year. Of course he was going to. I've on but feel we would have got at least £500k for him and arguably more. Good player and £500-750k is not to be sniffed at.

Can only assume it suited us maybe to have it done early so not to take time up and perhaps a signing in fee and wages would have meant smaller return from sale. Just find it surprising we wouldn't want to max out profit and revenue in for PSR.

Ogbene attacking right back?
at 22:22 5 Jul 2025

If Hutch stays (and possibly even if he doesn't) I quite like the idea of Ogbene pace on the overlap. I think particularly at home in games we dominate this could be a proper weapon. Be interesting to see if we try it on friendlies.

Not quite sure who is our 'solid' option as Clarke and Johnson are also decent offensively. Do wonder of Johnson will be tested in CM as well. He's comfortable there but can be effective enough with the ball.

Celina attracting interest
at 15:40 27 Jun 2025

Having a good season in Sweden and supposedly attracting attention.

While we're linking other ex town players we might as well lob another in 🤣.

The obvious Hutch replacement and no doubt a bargain price.

On a positive note....
at 23:28 12 Jun 2025

If McKenna does go to Brentford it will be the first time since Sir Bobby that a manager has left because they are good (and poached) rather than because they got the sack or had to resign.

Nice to end that run! 😁

Baffling the anti McKenna stuff creeping in
at 18:59 18 May 2025

Obviously for what he has done for this club but even on today he's set up a team which did more than enough to win the game and the players haven't taken the chances. We win that game way more often then not on the balance of the game. Rotten result to stomach but not a rotten performance and wouldn't be putting that on the manager today.

Emil Riis available on a free
at 09:15 14 May 2025

That would make a lot of sense to me. Bargain striker proven in the champ with similar profile to Hirst leaving us with cash to spend on additional required striker. Hirst, Emil Riis and a premium striker signing would fit the bill. Emil Riis would fit us better than Al Hamadi as 3rd striker and might just fight his way into the team.
