    Why so many empty seats ?

    There where a lot of empty seats a few minutes before KO but not once the game started apart from upper tier of main stand but a lot stay inside in the corporate areas There were two free seats next to my wife, taken by season ticket holders and I have only known those seats occupied twice in...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Plymouth Argyle Match Thread - Thursday 26th Dec

    If he had Visa problems he wouldn't even be at the club let alone playing for the u23's. Just accept he has had injury problems and it takes time to get fit and fully match fit. Hopefully he will now feature on the bench. But I suspect he will have an apprenticeship of being just on the...

    Looking where the ref was he was behind Eccles so probably couldn't be sure whether contact was just on Eccles or ball and Eccles fell over the tackler. Refs have one angle and one take of a situation, it's why the Prem has VAR. Personally I would still prefer not to have VAR.

    Well we were worse than Hull second half at Portsmouth so I'm not going to gloat on how poor other sides are.

    It was a very good performance today and a great reaction to the diabolical second half performance at Portsmouth. Okay Plymouth are no great shakes, but you can only play what is on front of you. At times this season we have failed to put teams away even if they are very poor...so a step in...

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    Mistakes in midfield can expose the defence and leave them overloaded. Torp, Eccles, Sheaf and Rudoni have all made individual errors in games that have done just that. Yes defenders have made individual errors too. But it is too simplistic to look at the goals conceded and just heap it all...

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    First point Williams isn't responsible for who is signed and who he has to work with. Also coaches have more outfield players to work with so have a great chance of success because of the numbers. Also I think the standard of goalkeeping isn't what it was across the board in this country. But...

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    Well Robins had the chance to get rid with his coaching shake up, so did King. King also has a second chance when he got rid of Robins and a third chance when he brought in Lampard. Where I stand is I know our keepers aren't very good and as I have never seen Williams coach it's a bit like...

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    I don't disagree about his stats. Perhaps he is just a bad keeper? I have never seen anything positive in him and said from the outset he looked like an accident waiting to happen and he got away with a lot early on. But I suspect Viveash thought he had something? Now you come on, Collins...

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    Goals conceded aren't always down to the goalkeeper or the goalkeeping coach though. But you are obviously like a dog with a bone so I will leave it there.

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    There are lots of questions to ask, not just about a coach or coaches. Before Williams people blamed Oggy. I bet most have never seen either coach a single session. Having heard Oggy on the radio he knows a lot about tactics etc and not just from a goalkeeping perspective. His knowledge is...

    Defensive coach / Goalkeeping coach

    I think it is clear, that Moore was experiencing off field problems, without the club stating what they were. But people still like to bash the goalkeeping coach for that loss of confidence/form.

    Video Frank Lampard looks ahead to Coventry City's upcoming Boxing Day clash with Plymouth Argyle 🎙️

    I'm more interested on what he does in coaching sessions with his staff to be honest, but that will take several weeks. I also hope that the 2nd half at Portsmouth is our nadir as it was even worse than the home performance against Derby under Robins and that was bad. Players need to be told...

    Sheaf

    I agree but it does depend what fans expect from him? As a DM he is excellent. If fans are expecting a creative midfielder, then they are going to be disappointed. Just expect him to do the job he is best at.

    It’s a new day it’s a new dawn

    I disagree. I think that is a deluded expectation, unless you are Doug King. Unless King is planning to spend big in January and I can't see that either because it is an inflated price window even for average players. I don't actually think King 'expects' play offs as a 'minimum'.

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    January is a shit window. I would be surprised if we make more than one permanent signing.

    It’s a new day it’s a new dawn

    Not true Robins has gone we move on. Lampard deserves time like any manager. But he is proving what I have been saying for years - new manager bounce is a myth. Because it only takes a couple of games for players to return to type. New manager, new coaches, new ideas. Coaching takes time...

    Season over already?

    Far too good to go down? With this side as it stands I wouldn't want to go into the last few games needing to get a few points to get over the line.

    Yes about as good as Da Silva looks technically good. I think you missed the irony 😉
