    Agreed on both.

    ABBA are definitely geniuses.

    I think Broja is more of an Ings replacement.

    I thank you for the music.

    I’m not sure we could have expected an Ings replacement for half the fee we got for Ings

    Striker is going to be an interesting focus area in the summer since we will likely need to fill squad spots for Broja and Long. As harsh as it may sound Armstrong is closer to a Long replacement than an Ings one.

    I’d really like to think that Adam Armstrong realises he is utterly not suited for be the lone striker and outlet ball when our backs are to the wall away from home with 10 men

    If we want to be really bold, we should go for Yuri Alberto from Internacional. But then, this should probably be in the transfer thread!

    Young Czech striker. V good prospect and within reach of someone like us.

    10 years since the last Coventry game - AS Jnr has been advised not to run on the pitch this time.

    Oh yes of course, championship. Always liked Coventry, I remember watching Saints there as a young child. Combined with a trip to Warwick castle, great day out.

    Apparently it took Coventry just 25 minutes to sell out their ticket allocation for the whole of the Northam end. If we don't get a full house with tickets at £10, it would a major embarrassment.

    Well done Coventry on the sell out though...
