Blackburn won it a few years ago but not much made of that anymore so things will hopefully settle down eventually. I used to loathe Leicester but found when push came to shove that I wanted them to win it because it gives everyone hope and breaks the stranglehold of the big four or five, even...

Never sure why the mantra that he kept us up despite a ten point deduction goes unchallenged. That was quite a good set of players who needed to finish the season ten points above the relegation zone, and did. I would have fancied my chances of keeping that squad up.

Wasn't a famous celebrity couple who can't be named was it? Row over a threesome?

Three deserved home wins in a row against Millwall, Bradford and Sheffield United has to be encouraging. All will depend on who stays, who goes and who comes in, obviously, but I think there are grounds for optimism. Five games ago I wouldn't have been renewing, now I am.

Like he really needs to do that.

Totally unfair on the lad. Football is a ruthless professional business with very little sentiment. He was good enough to get a contract, end of. Everyone makes mistakes and Aaron has probably suffered by comparison to a cup winning dad rather than exploiting it. Header yesterday and flick on...

I thought it was fantastic to see him, Ivor and Lee walking up to the scoreboard and joining in. Great for fans young and old and not something you see every week. So will Wednesday fans now be slating him for doing that? Some might. Top man.

Well things look a lot brighter tonight than they did before the last three home games!

Plus we need to throw in the stadium fiasco, and the train station! I think we should be in a Champions League all on our own.

Remember Beckhams penalty against Argentina, the redemption one? He put it about a foot to the side of the keeper but hit it so hard I don't think the keeper even saw it let alone had the time to react. Keepers must love it when the taker strokes it because unless it's right inside the post...

It was there though, wasn't it? Within their grasp. A couple of years ago I'd had enough, the hostage situation at Northampton was the last straw so I started going to the rugby (Butts!). I went a couple of times at the start of the season and what with the buzz, the queues at the ticket office...

Be interesting to see a breakdown of contributors level of optimism by age range! I may be being a tad hasty here but I'd be surprised if many of the old school have any hope left.

It wasn't at one pint, that was earlier. Highlight of the night by the way was the lad who'd only had two pints.

Noticed at one pint their goalkeeper bowled it out to the right back who immediately played it forward and they were in our half on the attack. That's the way to do it. What we do, seemingly automatically, is give it to someone with his back to the play on the edge of our box and surrounded by...

You might have gathered this but I mainly blame the players. Clearly Mowbray has a wealth of football knowledge and managerial experience at high level. He said last night that the players basically did the exact opposite of the team talk in the first 20 minutes. I'd give him another year.

Reminds me of hearing a couple on a TV quiz show a few years back. Smug pair. Said they were both 'Gooners' and had met through Arsenal and been through 'thick and thin' since.

Ball even!

What was so depressing last night was the sheer inevitability of it. For quite a few games now they have looked as though they are playing a practice match when the opposition look as if they care. They are a spent force, no passion, no energy, no fight, no leadership. Concede a goal now and...

I think you also have to take into account the relative size of the club. Coventry is usually accounted the 8th or 9th biggest city in England and is in the middle of Warwickshire with a number of large towns. It only has one club. CCFC arrived in the top tier with huge momentum and very big...

Don't remember too many games where the opposition should have been several goals up but we won. Happens all too frequently against us. I know fans have blinkers but I honestly can't remember us winning many matches whilst being battered. Another reason why supporting Cov is so challenging.
