Papahet

How are we going to use the window with no room for another loan in the squad and the ban on paying a fee? Confused...

Bloody hell, what's happened to Liam Thompson since the new contract? Thought he'd flourish at this level.

His humour and charm won't win us games unfortunately..

This team should be winning these games and creating more chances with the likes of Hourihane and Mendez Laing in the eleven.

Edited

Get Fozzy on second half 

Can't string wins together, worrying imo...

I'm sure Morris installed the very best PA system not so long ago, he said this would benefit us staging concerts etc

Ps whatever happened to that planned roof over the stadium

Which goals were Forsyth's fault? 

It was like playing with ten men second half.

Any (rare) long kick Wildsmith upfield Fozzy failed to win, he's was getting run ragged and this is when Robert's should've come on for him rather than bring Thompson (baffled at that BTW ).

Also feel Hourihane is untouchable,  nowhere near the player he was at Villa and Barnsley,  another player who looks shattered after a hour or so. His corners are dire, his passing gets very sloppy midway through - needs a major kick up the arse because he's normally so technically gifted on the ball.

Forsyth is nowhere near fit enough for 90 minutes, Absolutely out of it second half and they sussed out the left hand side.

Mcgoldrick despite supposedly being unfit was the best player by a country mile 

Literally hasn't done a thing wrong at RB. 

Leave him there and bring in a loan for elsewhere 

Another first half where we absolutely battered them for possession, second half we  seem to lack ideas or options - The bench today again shows how few attacking options we have.

Sibley needs to start and try going 442 -  disappointed in Hourihane TBH;  poor corners, passes going astray (especially second half). Expected better and I know he's capable of it.

Should've gone for Sarr at Watford IMO

Isn't worth half that fee, WTF are they thinking?

We have had plenty of chances to score against Charlton and again last night. I'm not buying this "parking the bus" crap.

Besides Collins (whose struggled since leaving Luton..) - I don't think any of those players are known goal scorers , it's no wonder we are struggling for them.

We need another option. Whether it's Cannon from Everton or more experience with goals in the locker.

If Roofe is a target, get him ffs

Tyler Walker, said this several weeks ago and if LR was at the game I'm sure he's someone we are targeting for another forward option.

Check his record at Lincoln and Mansfield. Needs to kick-start his career back down the lower leagues again, really not happening at Coventry and don't think he'd be against a move here despite his Forest connection - lives literally down the road from me, seems a nice fella TBH.

Still need more attacking options IMO, shouldn't have to keep throwing Davies uptop 

Martin Kelly is still avaliable. Get him match fit and he'd be a decent signing for this level 

What's the team? 

If Mcdonald was coming in, surely he'd have played more minutes in pre season (?)

We should go for someone like Tyler Walker.

Good goal scorer at this level, decent age and most likely surplus to requirements at Coventry, lives locally too...

Urgently need more goal scoring options.

Bench looked dire

You do know we are working under a EFL business plan and that our wage bill will not be the highest in the league. 

The average wage in league one is 2k or thereabouts; you really believe we've handed contracts out on this basis to Hourihane,  Davies, Chester, Mcgoldrick etc at this level? Come off it.

We'll be up there when it comes to paying wages without a doubt.

The players we've signed and the budget we are surely paying for wages, we have to be up there. No excuses.

This squad is not a league one squad 

Strange move.

He doesn't need the money, his wife hated the US when over there previously, lads in the United academy, 20m mansion finally up and running, DC are doing absolutely dog s**** (7-0 last game).

Maybe the ultimate aim is for Wayne to be a owner or purchase a share in a club over there.

Luke Freeman gone to Luton, can't see Hourihane will be going there now ..
