    Match Thread Coventry City - Middlesbrough Match Thread - Saturday 3rd May

    Not sure what I feel about this one just yet. Be interesting to see what happens tonight. We might then have a clearer picture.

    Yup, exactly the same. As you get older, you do start wondering "how long have I got left and will we make the Premier League before I die!" 😂

    Yup. Never used to find it as stressful a few years back. Now, I do find it causes a lot more stress. I used to get down and feel upset when we lost, but I don't think I found any great stress overall. Different story these days

    Injuries - get em out

    Anyone else think that Bidwell, again looked like he had lost a yard of pace and lacked the reliability we once got from him? It was almost like his legs had gone. Maybe he's just rusty, or is carrying a knock, but lately, he just hasn't looked his old self. Nearly gave a goal away too didn't...

    Is it that bad now? I used to be able to use my phone okay.

    I think we are past the notion of listening to pocket radios. If Millwall and Blackburn are both losing badly, we WILL know for sure. People talk. The internet is our tool.

    Might be, but if say Millwall are 2 down and Blackburn are losing, we will only need a draw. I would expect a last 5 or 6 minute onslaught from Boro though, if that was the case.

    Unless we only need a draw

    Think you have to massively favour Leeds for this game. They will definitely be wanting to go up as champions. At the same time, they can play with a bit of freedom. I would expect them to win this by a couple of goals at least

    The one thing I would say is that if we are going to lose or get knocked out of the playoffs on Saturday, I would rather it happens much earlier than the final minute. That was excruciating yesterday at the death. Much rather Boro beat us 2 or 3 nil, than have it be 0-0 and us seemingly set...

    Lampard

    Yeah, exactly that. I don't rate him much at all and I trust Simms to be more of the goal getter than BTA, but I think BTA is far more aggressive and will probably make much more of a nuisance of himself.

    Final games of old

    Yes! That's it. It hit the post and bounced across the line into Suckling's arms I just remember thinking that is definitely going in.

    Final games of old

    I remember beating Norwich 2-1 to stay up and they had a header or shot that hit the post, that could have sent us down. That's if I am remembering clearly

    Lets look on the bright side

    Well, you would hope so wouldn't you I suppose the big worry is in being able to keep the players we DO want to keep. Ones that could be good enough for the Premier (Rudoni, Wright, MVE), could be snapped up by bigger clubs

    Match Thread Luton Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 26th Apr

    At the end of the day, we have just lost two games in succession, to both the two teams at the bottom of the table. Yet here we are, STILL in 6th place. We would have all taken that all day long before those games wouldn't we? The reality that with 1 game to go, we would still be in the...

    1 game to go

    We think Thomas and MVE will possibly be back. Would make a huge difference

    Burnley will want to go up as champions. Without any shadow of a doubt.
