ADAMS TARGETS NEW RECRUITS AND PREMIERSHIP RETURN

Last updated : 25 May 2006 By Covsupport
Coventry manager Micky Adams has already begun planning for next season after signing a new deal which will keep him at The Ricoh until 2009.
Adams is set to strengthen his squad for 2006/07 and believes the Sky Blues can make a real push for promotion to The Premiership – only if they can continue where they left off last time around. The Sky Blues finished a creditable 8th place last season after an improved run of results during the second half of the campaign.

He told Sky Sports News: "I think last season the club made great strides - particularly in the league."
"Having moved into a new stadium, the club is now geared to try and get back into the Premier League.
"We must not stand still if we want to progress and there's a certain amount of money that's been made available to me in order to improve the squad.
"Obviously with the quality of teams that are going to be in the league next season we need to improve the quality in our side to give ourselves a fighting chance.
"For us to be in the top-ten next season we need to improve the squad."
