Southampton, Leicester, Sheff U and Ipswich are well below the usual run rate. After Boxing Day, the Top 4 all had 44 points and only Sheff U had 50 points. We’re ahead of Leeds. Burnley and Sheff U this time last year for context. Only Boro are on 40+ points and they’d be 5 Even if Ipswich...

He’s been there and done it as a player and this point is something the players mention in interviews. It’s pretty clear they respect Lampard and trust that he knows what it takes to win a league title. He’s a manager that’s had a Top 4 Prem finish which is an achievement unmatched by any...

It’s not fool proof but it’s a solid indicator. We’ve lost 2 league games under Lampard so realistically, will we lose more than 3 games in the next 12 Home games? I’d say probably not. Similarly, Ipswich’s away form is currently 1.18 ppg, is it likely that they will turn into a 2.3 ppg team...

Unlike the professional scouts and analysts, our horizons are much more narrow. For example, I don’t watch much football outside of Cov, England and Super Sunday. Hamer was a great player for us, but he’s moved on and we have as well. There’s a reason all the Prem teams didn’t sign him when...

You can’t be too complacent but when you do the maths, it’s v difficult to see how 2 teams beat our form over the next 23 games. Our home and away form is better than Boro and Ipswich and we’ve had a more difficult teams away than both. The only people doubting us at present is our own fans...

Everything is 10/10 right now. We’re in a position that it’s v difficult to mess this up now.

I think we’ll beat that. We’re currently on 2.2 ppg and we’ve more or less played the entire top half away from home, with only Hull and Bristol City to play in the Top 6. Birmingham’s home form has dropped off so what looked like a scary fixture looks winnable now. Our away form has slowed...

8 weeks, so mid-Jan return: https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/coventry-city-injuries-southampton-lampard-33089196.amp

It was in one of the telegraph injury reports pre-Southampton away. https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/coventry-city-injuries-southampton-lampard-33089196.amp

The initial 6-8 week diagnosis has him returning for Leicester at home. Lampard said he was still tracking at that. 6 weeks from Boro is after Birmingham away so BTA should be back for Stoke or Leicester.

Ipswich are 2nd to us on home form and even then their home PPG is 2.08 and their away PPG is 1.18. Our PPG at home is 2.63 which is incredible, we have 12 home games v 11 away games left to play. Ipswich have more away games left to play too. Extrapolating their existing form, you could...

It happens every year and it’s usually the same posters jumping the gun.

I don’t think Ipswich will feel like they need a win this one. January is their big opportunity to climb the table because they have 4 home games where they will be expect to pick up near maximum points.

The bookies probably back Southampton to go up via playoffs. As things stand, surely two of Boro, Ipswich or Southampton get promoted from here. To be honest, that’s generous on Southampton but they’re still only 5 points from playoffs. Southampton and Ipswich can only hope for playoffs at best...

Sky Bet odds for us to be promoted is 1/66 so the bookies think it’s more or less a done deal.
