    After today I'd take Ma Baker from Boney M if it would improve the team.

    Carl Baker had his contract at Cov terminated a week ago. Hilda Baker would get in our midfield at the moment

    He's 31 & Coventry have obviously got rid for a reason. Thinking about it what we really need is a striker IMO. We dont possess a 20goal a season forward, the closest we've got is Westcarr who'll get about 15 or 16 ish. But we are lacking up ft. Taylor for all the good work he does has a terrible scoring record over his career.
    Highly unlikely we'll get a 20goal striker in the loan window though.

    Couldn't we convert a midfielder or defender into a striker of worth? After all, if Brian Clough can do it, can't AA?

    Baker has scored 28 goals in 182 appearances for Coventry, since moving from Stockport in 2010.

    His departure has caused some surprise among Sky Blues fans, although boss Steven Pressley insisted his exit was for footballing reasons.

    Baker has been recovering from a shin injury he picked up in pre-season.

    Awford admitted on Monday he was mulling over a move in the loan market, after three league defeats on the bounce.

    That wouldn’t be necessary to land Baker, though, after he cancelled his contract with Coventry earlier this month.

    Awford brushed off talk of
