Maybe Cullen is seen as back up with Idah out?

I suppose that’s my point. Our recruitment and ownership seem to want to be ambitious but we don’t match that ambition at the moment. We have to change the perception of us as mid-table fodder for us to be in the conversation for the players we’re targeting.

I think that’s what puts the emphasis on the sporting project being a good one. Good players will come here if we’re competitive and look like a club on the up. Coventry isn’t one of the premier destinations in the UK but plenty of decent players have joined them recently including our captain...

I think that’s been the case with us and a lot of players recently. Our striker targets didn’t want to join us in the summer either. We’ve got to start becoming a club that top targets want to come to or these owners will never get anywhere. I don’t mean top players btw, I mean our top targets.

Fact is, we are 17th in the league and won’t look attractive at the moment. If I had just been on loan at Sheffield United and done well as Rak-Sakyi has, I wouldn’t want to be going to the bottom half of the Championship either. Our pull depends on our league position and we can’t use that...

Doesn’t want to come here, if articles and Twitter are to be believed.

Rak-Sakyi not going to happen by the looks of things. Real shame, quality player. We have to be competing higher up to be able to attract that standard of player though unfortunately. Not the end of the world as the squad isn’t lacking for bodies and apart from probably needing a CB, we can...

Sadly it was just another case of an interim having an initial impact only to not be up to the job full time. Look at Tonda Eckert at Southampton, brilliant taking over from Still initially but they’ve only won 2 league games since he was given the job and are winless in five championship games...

I think that would make more sense, capable of starting in the Championship for me so definitely the right move for him. Hope we can get a CB through the door.

Re Casey, I would ask West Ham: what did you expect? By the time we signed Casey on loan we had already signed Burgess and had Cabango as a starter. If this is about game time Casey was never going to be a regular for us in the Championship and West Ham presumably knew that. Don’t get me...

Wales’ involvement in the second goal against West Brom was great to see. Doesn’t look physically out of his depth either. Some back up for striker would be helpful but I’d be happy for him to take that role if we don’t do anything in the market.

I disagree, I thought we played some good stuff today.

I agree re revenue and from the perspective of the manager and it’s always a shame to get knocked out of any competition. This season though, I’m not particularly sorry to see us have less games to play. For me, this is the most under threat our position in the Championship has been since...

I disagree, I don’t think it’s a given that we’ll be well clear by the end of the season, I’d rather not clog up the schedule with extra matches but I know that’s just my view. Normally I’d be all for a good cup run but I think it’s a complication we could do without this season while we get...

Really disappointing and a lesson in taking your chances for us. Easily the better side for all of that really, should have been done by 90. Having said that, we are still in a precarious position and don’t really need cup football this season. West Brom having more games to play also helps us...

Won’t be West Brom’s full strength side and it is in the cup but this has been our best performance of the season for me. Created multiple good chances, the patterns are there, Matos is clearly getting his message through in training.

Not a bad half from us, full of energy as usual just need to be a bit better at looking after the ball when we win it and in the final third (as usual). Ronald with 2 great crosses, we should have scored from one of them. Decent though overall.

I should rephrase that then, as them being more proactive in the market and attempting to build a squad with depth rather than spending more. I believe we spent a similar amount in the 2023 summer. We still don’t know if these owners are any better than the previous ones in terms of executing...

Bottom line is, bringing a 36 year old in for 6 months means that we don’t have adequate cover in the RB position and we didn’t in the summer either. If we don’t have enough experienced heads in the squad then perhaps we should have factored that in with all the players we brought in during the...

I don’t understand this one, I thought whatever right back we brought in would be a starter so Galbraith could move back into midfield, it’s clear that Key is only seen as a rotation option now going by the past 9 games. It could be that Key’s injury is that bad that we need two right backs, one...
