    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    Mentality is massive, and all the pressure is on us. If we win 6-0, we were expected too and no one bats an eyelid. Those 2 fantastic finishes they scored against Ipswich were no fluke or lucky. Have no doubt MR has this drilled into the players tonight because any laziness from corners and...

    Can’t wait should be a fantastic atmosphere. 4-1 and have a feeling they score first, and early. - Haji x2, Simms & Palmer to score. Sky blues march to Wembley continues.

    Can anyone take a quick piss at each corner flag to end this curse?

    I’m happy with the XI considering the injuries we’ve had. Our best front 3 with COH in behind, gives us a chance against anyone in this league especially at home. Simms to add another to his tally, 2-1 win

    Population size is huge for non elite clubs, it’s where the vast majority of your supporter base are either going to come from or live. We have Nearly half a million people within short driving/bus route distance to the stadium. Ipswich have about 180,000 In their town and close surrounding area...

    Definitely. I think our ownership issues are a big part of that also. Fans less likely to put hands in pockets if they want the owners gone. Just a more positive vibe around the team with Sisu gone. Ipswich were also buoyed by the fact they had big money ownership come in for them in their...

    I’d say that’s probably about right, Stratford U-A technically is in Warwickshire but it’s not somewhere I’d consider a stronghold of support for us or even a place with a large football following (not sure though) However of the two largest places in Suffolk (excluding Ipswich) Lowestoft is...

    I’m talking about attendances pre all seater stadium days, Ipswich’s record attendance is 38000+ A good portion of Suffolk would probably see Norwich as their local team. We have the entirety of Warwickshire where we’re the closest big team, as well as being a large city on top of that. We’re...

    the point is Ipswich is a really well supported club because despite being just a large town with a few towns around it, they can bring in 30,000+ crowds, and averages of 26,000 in league one is insane for a town. By comparison we have access to a larger pool of locals, yet they still regularly...

    I’d be interested to see where you're seeing these numbers, even during the 90s we only had 3 seasons where we averaged over 20,000. And in our post premier league years we’ve only averaged over 20,000 three times (including this season) Ipswich averaged 26,000 in league one last season and...

    Ravel Morrison

    Bizarre career, Lost count the amount of “second chances” he’s had based on a decent youth career. Basically, if one of the greatest managers of all time (a man world renowned for being a hard disciplinarian) couldn’t get you to grow up and realise your potential at the biggest club in the...

    Clubs across Europe will be fighting for Ronnie Edwards, we don’t stand a chance. Prem or a Dortmund/Leipzig type get him in the summer.

    Even if he doesn’t get us back to the Prem he deserves a statue (getting back to the prem just means a bigger, more impressive statue 🤣). Returned in the midst of our darkest times and saved us from a downward trajectory that looked like eventually falling out the football league under awful...

    Hull are a fucking menace, they’ve added so much quality over the winter transfer window, can’t help but feel they’re destined for playoffs.

    Exciting times for all skyblues

    We’ve definitely got one of the best managers in the country (definitely in the top 5 outside the premier league, and better than a few in it). Not many could rebuild a club from the bottom on a shoestring the way he has for us. Players can come and go, it’s Robins leaving that gives me nightmares.

    sunderland sacked Beale

    Writing looked on the wall after his embarrassing treatment of Hulme. Judging from their fans reaction, he’s been disliked for a while. Hopefully they don’t get a new manager bounce and make a playoff comeback.

    That’s shit news, always liked him as a manager. Built a bloody fantastic team at WBA.
