    Beat Chelsea and the title's ours - Fergie

    I suppose it depends on whether you see this season as evidence of the improvement of the other 16 teams or the fall in standard of the top teams. I makes me pessimist then, but seeing as the league has lost the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Xabi Alonso and Javier Mascherano as well as Drogba...

    Beat Chelsea and the title's ours - Fergie

    As unimpressive that United have been this season it says more about the declining quality of the Premier League if this Chelsea side manage to win the league. Does anyone think that this title challenge might save Carlo Ancelotti's job, it seems as if Abramovich is hell-bent on giving him the...

    The Guardian - Ray Ranson / Same division but different rules for Cardiff City

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/may/06/fa-faw-cardiff-swansea Bit too late if Cardiff get promoted despite being involved in the same dealings, if not worse, than QPR especially if they benefit from their points deduction

    What could have been the match preview.......

    Why in your fantasy are Coventry only in the play-offs? Surely Pep Guardiola's Coventry have already secured promotion for our Sheikh owners with a record 135 points and looking to go for an unprecedented 100% season.

    The Eastwood Enigma

    In his defence, it is a strange expectation that if you put a striker in midfield then he will definitely score tonnes of goals. Some players can play in a number of positions fairly easily, some players are masters in one particular position, some players are defensive and some are attacking...

    Does AT know about Dean Bouzanis?

    Just because he's been at Liverpool does not necessarily mean that he's any good, I would want Coventry to sign a goalkeeper with much more first team experience

    Matchday #46; Norwich vs City; 07.05.2011; Carrow Road, Kick off @ 12.45pm

    Norwich are a good side with some decent players so it'll be close, 5-0 to us

    Attendances

    Leicester were in the Premier League in the past 10 years and the season that they won promotion from League 1 would have drawn crowds as well as their play off run last year but have had equally grim times to us in the intervening period. I think the main thing is that there is a strong...

    Saturday live tv games

    It's annoying that they have only chosen to follow Leeds, Q.P.R. and Cardiff this season (All of been on at least twice now) but there's basically nothing left to play for now in the championship if we assume that Nottingham Forest don't lose to Crystal Palace and Q.P.R. aren't deducted points...

    If Westwood has indeed played his last game....

    Well I think Joe Murphy is available for free in the summer, but might end up at a Championship club like Middlesbrough and Leicester who have a better chance of promotion. Joe Lewis is overrated due to the England call-up he got when he was in League 2, let in a few clangers this year but not...

    Are we awash with centre backs?

    But wouldn't that leave us short if we picked up a few injuries? We might as well keep all of them but I think Cranie's contract might be up next year and he must earn a bit more than the rest given that we bought him from a then premier league club so for economic reasons I reckon Cranie would...

    Is he coming back, Conor Thomas

    Where in that story does it imply that he's coming back to Coventry? There's obviously a deal in place so we might as well focus on players that we can get and have at the moment. If he leaves on loan next season then it would be great coming seeing him back because we might benefit from him for...

    2 areas to improve after today...

    Mexican waves are rubbish anyway, implies that the game is boring and have been done too much. Worst though is a half-hearted Mexican wave, so that's why I participate in them even though I hate them.

    no westwood today?!?

    I think that Blackpool, Newcastle and Stoke believe that they have better keepers than Westwood. Based on talent then he would definitely get in to Blackpool's team out of those three but Newcastle and Stoke have better keepers with at least better experience. The comment about him getting in to...

    no westwood today?!?

    Westwood is a good shot stopper but you need to remember that almost every Premier League team now have top quality goalkeepers. Which team is weak in that area in PL? Arsenal - not really, Aston Villa - maybe with Friedel getting on, Birmingham - no, Blackburn - might be going down but have...

    westwood to villa

    Fraser Forster is on loan from Newcastle, plus Westwood's out of contract so Celtic don't have to pay anything. Which apparently was close to what they offered last summer when Boothroyd made the haggis comment

    no westwood today?!?

    Got to be injured, would be churlish to leave him out just because he won't sign a new contract and not giving him a final send-off

    New Season Fresh Start - Who should we sign/let go?

    The answer is that we don't know what type of player Thorn can sign next summer. I think Westwood is almost definitely going, King and Gunnarsson are the most likely to stay, with Gunnar the most likely. So we'll need a new goalkeeper for sure next year, apparently we're interested in the...

    QPR could be denied promotion

    I don't think they would lose all of the points gained with Faurlin because they bought the rest of his ownership from his third party in November or December I think, so it will just be the points gained from that period. I am loving the irony of the situation after Warnock was so 'holier than...

    Coventry City offer new contracts to King, Westwood and Gunnarsson

    Has anyone else wondered who would actually want to sign Aron Gunnarsson? I mean he has been okay this season but he's not a terrific passer, tackler or goalscorer, which rules out a move to the premier league. Maybe if he left he would go abroad but if he stayed in England it would only be a...
