I can't believe

Championship Coventry City

comment on the article

We signed Freddy Eastwood.

Personally i think this is a bad buy. Why would we sign a player who can't get into a team better than us eh? He hasn't done anything in the Championship at all so i can't see the point, except he and Coleman are welsh!

signings like this are not the way forward so i hope he proves me wrong!

any transfer news other than Manuel Curto who has been mentioned in the telegraph?

PUSB!

'IM SURE MURRAY, HENNASSEY,KIGHTLY,JARVIS,EBANKS BLAKE, DAVE JONES, KEOGH,OLOFINJANA ETC WOULD WALK INTO THE COV TEAM'

Same way they all walked into your team, you're not really proving a point are you? The rest of what you've said was incomprehensible and you've even confused and offended one of your own fans with your silly pointless ramblings, get off the E-numbers.

Anyway, Freddy will do well and I can't wait.

Eastwood will do a good job for Coventry, rather than judge him now I would suggest waiting until he has played a few games.

Hi Rusty.... I agree that you need to give a player time to bed into a new club set up, but what makes you think he'll do a good job for us? You live in the Netherlands and I wouldn't have thought there would be much Championship football on TV over there. Or am I wrong? You support the tractor boys... why, because of their past player connections?

You are a mug, most of the were all linked with Premier clubs and choosed to stick with us to get us up next season. You think they could fit in your team, your kidding me.

When we came to you away just like Keogh said " We was playing Schmeical not Coventry. We are not a better team then you? You are in a relagation battle every season.

Freedy Eastwood didnt fit in our team beacuse McCarthy and himself didnt get along, Eastwood is to could for Coventry and we know he will come back to faunt us.

WOT ARE U ON ABOUT U MONG!!! IM WOLVES!! MAY I SUGGEST U READ THE POST CORRECTLY 1ST BEFORE YOU PASS A COMMENT THAT MAKES U LOOK FOOLISH!!!doh

Yeah, Fowler was really poor, he wasn't fit when he played and when he was nearing full fitness he got injured!

Oh well, massive wages off the books, which is always nice.

Sounds as though we are signing Marcus Bent, which unlike some other Cardiff dans, I am quite happy with.

Father was born in Maldon, so the family have always had season tickets to Ipswich.

I have seen Eastwood play for Southend about 5 times and also saw him play for Grays !!!.

Amazing as it sounds but here in the Netherlands I can watch any Premiership game live (even on Saturdays), I also get Championship football all for the monthly price of 45 euros, and BBC 1,2,3,4, Prime and World.

Good luck to Coventry, I have always had a soft spot for them since Micky Gynn scored to win the FA Cup.

I used to watch Eastwood down at Southend a lot, he is a class act. All he needs is a manager that will have faith and use him in the right way and I think Coleman is that man.

I can guess why mccarthy didnt like him because he doesn't work hard defensively but going forward he gives you a real threat.

I think he's an excellent signing for Coventry and will get you 20 plus goals next year.
