    A couple of weeks later....poll

    Over 85% agreed we would be in the play off's two weeks ago. What's the view now?

    Dismay

    Suddenly it's difficult to see the how we will end this slump. After today I may end up joining Otis's caravan of doom and pessimism. He was right to suggest we may not even win today. The fact is we should have and the Fleetwood game. So why didn't we? The players just seemed lacklustre all...

    JOB - should he come back?

    Are we missing his energy and spirit on the pitch? I know he was unhappy at being a sub most games but can't help thinking he is someone who may have made a difference off the bench Saturday? Certainly a better option than Fortune right? So the question is should we bring him back?

    Stop with the pessimism - jeez

    OK folks a bad defeat and a fat majority are on here again knocking the club, the manager's comments you name it but every thread has negativity all over it! Can't wait to see what you say should we get defeated at Barnsley. Yes that was a strange game yesterday and Fleetwood took home...

    Promotion push

    I have taken a look at our remaining fixtures and those of what I would call rivals and see we could yet make a grab of second spot. It will not be easy and requires us to not have any more bad runs. Hopefully we are over those and our new players have bedded in and we are a stronger and more...

    The gap widens or closes today...

    Always a crucial period of the season, mid winter injuries and transfers taking place disrupting sides. I think on paper all top 6 should record a win tomorrow. You know that is not going to happen so where will the surprises come? Will we slip up again? Will Burton have a shock defeat at...

    TM

    Couldn't we have won 2-0? I'm getting concerned about keeping our best asset - TM. There are quite a few vacancies around and our Tony and MV are doing a remarkable job. Hope he remains to complete the job and repeat the feat in the Championship!

    Jose to Man Utd?

    Just a feeling. Van Gaal is failing and Jose is now available. Fergie always wanted hin to succeed him but he was never available at the right moment. I would not be surprised.

    Just a thought...next striker

    IF Adam Armstrong does leave (I doubt by the way) or perhaps as competition for places and cover for injury as the long season progresses, what about Leon Clarke? Bury are beginning to tail off now and he could be tempted back?

    Burton and Walsall

    Seems our two rivals at the top have both gained new managers at a time when conventional wisdom would suggest a dangerous time to make such brave changes? Will it back fire on them both with a lack of focus and be seen as a "confident sapping two fingers at the players" from the departing...

    Football league show

    How cringeworthy is this show? It's so bad I have to keep flicking back and forth so I catch the great Sky Blues or I just woulnt bother at all.

    TM and MV

    I think we all should pause for a moment and candidly admit that since TM and MV arrived we have in a short space of time taken leaps and bounds forward from being a club and team without a sense of purpose to one we are finding hard to recognize. The plaudits for that belong to those two...

    The club is buzzing

    Joe Cole signing even for a short period is such positive news. The benefit Maddison and the whole team will get is huge. It will lift the morale at the club and of the supporters 10 fold. TM is weaving some magic with his budget. He wants promotion no doubt about that. Exciting stuff for the...

    Tuesday night home game

    Not another one until March! (unless there is a cup fixture of course) In fact it's the only one scheduled all season. Other night games mid week are all away from home. That will limit my capacity to watch the lads! Here's hoping for some rearranged fixtures to fill my need!

    Rate the manager

    It's that time of year when we sit waiting with baited breath for the new season to get going again. So it's time for another thread to fill in the time..... With a lot of hindsight and importantly not using the FA Cup win but concentrating only on the league, who have been our top 3 managers...

    Our chances of success this coming season...

    1. Which teams have the best managers in place? 2. Which teams have the biggest budgets? 3. Which teams have the best facilities? 4. Which teams can call on the most support? 5. Finally - which teams do you think will be in for a shout at promotion?

    Sky Blues change of name?

    Apparently there is a document circulating outlining plans for a name change to Coventry Hornets from the 2017/18 season. Plans leaked include the Coventry Bees speedway sharing the stadium with a state of the art track being added. All of this is part of a multi million pound investment...

    I hope people will now calm down...

    Everyone should realise by now that even with TM we can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear. SP left us a lot of garbage. TM has acted quickly in bringing in one good one (Ward) but is aware we need more. he will keep us up but that talk of amassing over 20 points in the remaining fixtures...

    What would make you happier?

    If we were relatively successful in the championship constantly fighting for promotion each year and the occasional year or two in the premier league would you be much happier with that than 34 years spent where 26 of those were a struggle to stay up?
