Re: The Sinking ship down West
it's not really a sinking ship, it's just their business model, they've fairly regularly sold players for decent money at this level (less so recently).
it's an area we are also now looking do do more in, like selling McGuiness at the start of the season

Chambers and Ralls didn't give him a touch, the dirty little rat.
Talking of rats did Darling sign or is he still free at the end of the season?

Just checked, and no he refused to sign, so another one leaving at the end of the season.

I think he's had enough there. Gets a lot of stick.
Their deluded fans describe Cooper and Martin as failures. Stupid tw@ts.

I don't think selling the club captain who's been there almost a decade is part of the business model
Rodon, James etc very much part of that model, but I think they may have expected for Grimes to be staying around

But their ship is going down the table = sinking.
And our ship is rising.

Re: The Sinking ship down West
He’s been subject to an offer from Watford, which would substantially increase his salary, so surprised if Coventry top that.

Watford get no parachute payments this season, so I doubt their budget is much bigger than Coventry’s. Just a guess, though.

It needs to be much bigger. They've still got 46 managers to pay off from the last 18 months.

Grimes is a decent 29 year-old Championship midfielder. Who else would you expect to be interested in him at this stage of his career?

They did love him, that's quite a big problem for them to be losing two of their better players.

Great lose him and Grimes, not won in five, lost four of them, battered in the last two, they could get dragged into a relegation battle only three points above us now, in terrible form.
Last six games form

it's still a very close division, they could easily string a few wins together and get themselves safe
