    Enjoy it

    I've banged the drum since before the season started that we would go up, and a good likelyhood automatically. Why? Becuase of MR's good work, the backing of a somewhat reformed SISU, very good recruitment and the addition of Adi Vivash. I even thought playing away at Birmingham woud take...

    League one Friday/Saturday

    Results gone in our favour today. I'd take a draw tomorrow but what an opportunity we have though to go top with a game in hand. I would be telling the players to think like it was a cup final, no hiding, everyone playing their heart out. We are getting so close and an opening has been...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Sunderland Match Thread - Sunday 1st Mar

    Sunderland look a threat, but this season we are superior. They very nearly got beat at home by Fleetwood but for a very late equaliser. Fleetwood are full of Joey Barton tenacity, and a threat to other sides they still have to play in and around the top 6.. I think Sunderland's recent run...

    Match Thread Rotherham Match Thread!

    Game of two halves. Just a pity on reflection we gave them their goal! Rotherham made it very difficult for us but we stood up to it and looked like the most likely winner. Kelly I have to say looks tired. The stats say 50%/50%, shots 8/8 corners 4/4 so I guess a draw it is!

    Bring on Allen or the new guy for Kelly. Shippers could be a threat too.

    Final automatic places

    Thing to remember here is that a lot of football is still to be played. It's not the last 6 games yet, far from it. We could lose the next two regroup and still win the league, so keep a level head and remember we have been far too good this season for it to crash and burn.

    What are Rotherham thinking

    It has the potental to go either way on form with a draw the most likely outcome. We create chances all the time whereas Rotherham rely heavily on set pieces. If we defend those well, and protect McCallum on the left I think Rotherham could struggle to create chances. I do think we need an...

    Match Thread Rochdale vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Feb

    We have not been able to play our expansive football of late, largely down to the weather, but we huffed and puffeda bit today against a poor side and made Rochdale look half decent for much of the game. Fatigue is there a little be it mental or physical, and I do agree Kelly looks off his...

    It felt like itcould be 5 nil then we took the foot off the gas. We can't drop our levels and get over confident. Must always work hard. Step it up and we will score more second half

    Drop a media bomb

    Agree with what you are intmating from that statement, but the key word there Chief is 'may'. Add to that the will to proceed and get any decision binding. It's just never going to happen. Defend it all you will with as much ambiguity as you like, it's still a moot point..

    Drop a media bomb

    The Prime minister has stated just last week when Barnier mentioned wanting some control in the EU courts, that there would be absolutely no rule over our laws from Europe, and this would end and to all intents and purposes has already. We left the EU for many reasons one of them exactly this...

    Drop a media bomb

    We left the EU and their jurisdiction, and when the transition ends in December it will no longer be a case for them to make a call. So this indemnity clause WASP are arguing over is a moot point. Everyone just needs to get in a room and sort out a deal to be back at the Ricoh. It is in...

    Drop a media bomb

    Don't understand everyone's obsession with this? It's very much a moot point.

    If we don't get promoted....

    We will go up automatically. Now for those who think otherwise that we will perhaps fall off the cliff edge next season if we fail to go up, then look at Portsmouth or Sunderland who both looked like they were going up last year. They failed ultimately but have come back strong again this...

    RB Coventry

    See no reason to rebrand the club wth over 105 year history. BA has not been rebranded for example. Yes there would be branding on the kit, the stadium and other areas but if you mean rebranding woud entail a name change from say Coventry City FC to Coventry Red Bull FC then I can't see that...

    Offside law change

    With such fine margins its difficult to accept a mm offside or should we say your toenail was offside? Common sense must rule. Simply stretch the offside distance to be enough to clearly and visably see 6 inches beyond the last man as the ball is kicked. That is visable to the naked eye in real...

    RB Coventry

    Be it SISU or Red Bull or anyone else the ownership is not the principal worry here unless they drive us to oblivion. British Airways is owned by the AIG Group with a number of investors in it, including 25% by Qatar Airways. BA is still the nations flag carrier and operates as a very 'British'...

    Match Thread Rochdale vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Feb

    Rochdale are a difficult side to play. On their day they can beat anyone in this league. Not easy this one. I do think we have enough and if we play to our strengths will come through. We just need to keep our feet on the ground, not expect to win and fight hard for it. 1-2
