    8 years progress or regression

    We are definitely on the up and fans and SISU in recent times have both been great, the club is being run sensibly and at a suitable budget. I think going back to the Ricoh now however would be a backwards step unless terms are considerably more favourable with a better pitch and more income...

    Just how big is our fan base ?

    I think our fans are great but a lot are delusional - cov have a hardcore of 8-10 thousand who are the lifeblood of the club. 5k of which who support no matter what and have largeky supported us at Brum. Not sure next season I'd want us back at the Ricoh unless a hell of a lot of thing changed...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Wasn't there a deadline to resolve the leagues by today? For some reason have deadline date of 27th May in my head. Or was that just the deadline for the EFL to come up with a proposal which they have already done? Is there an absolute deadline date for this season to be concluded?

    Video Why & what made you a Coventry Supporter

    No Logic in it really, born in Essex so West Ham should probably have been my team. Earliest memory is the 4-0 win over Liverpool that my grandad allowed me to stay up for to see highlights. I was hooked since then age 9 and never looked back or considered switching allegiance. My first game...

    Favourite XI you’ve seen live

    Hmm this one actually trickier than I thought but from live game only it helps as limits me to early 90's onwards. Going 4-4-2 struggled with left back tbh GK: Westwood RB: Nillson LB: Fox CB: Babb CB: Breen LW: Gallacher RW: Ndlovu CM: Boateng CM: McAllister ST: Dublin ST...

    Imagine it will be unchanged starting xi bar any unknown injuries occurring. think it will be tougher than some think on here but we will win it in a nervy 2-1 encounter!

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

    This one tricky as they have found Baka, Shipley & dare I say it Hiwula hard to handle previously - currently all three not in start xi. I think probably one up top makes sense with our team make up still not a massive fan but if our midfield play very well it can look great...if not though...

    I think Robins will not alter the team too much on this one would not be surprised if team is unchanged but think he will probably make just the one change Godden in for Baka - maybe Giles for McCallum but I doubt it as MR praised the whole defence post Pompey game, Think we will line up...

    This is a real toughie team selection wise a few tired limbs, not sure on injuries,Pompey quite a big physical side.... Think I’d probably go with the following if fit. Marosi Dabo McCallum Rose Hyam Fade Kelly Walsh Allen Shipley Biamou subs: Wilson, Pask, Giles, Westbrooke, O’Hare, Baka...

    Matt Godden

    I think Baka is best finisher we have at the club, said it before whether that is good enough at this level is debatable.... If keeping the same formarion with one up top for Bolton - which I hope we don't personally - then it's Godden for me for sure up top on own. I don't think the other two...

    Call it now

    I think top two and really think it is one of the best chances for us to get promoted automatically.

    Shit on bench for sure sorry Jones out - O'Hare on bench. However if Robins wants one up top O'Hare into midfield and think Baka would just shade it for me on top on own over Biamou or Godden.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Bolton Wanderers Match Thread - Saturday 8th Feb

    I think as we are playing Bolton at home and second game where two up top has worked well would go 2 up top for first half. Marosi Dabo McCallum MacFadzean Rose Hyam Allen Walsh Kelly Biamou Baka Subs: Wilson, Pask, Giles, Shipley, Westbrooke, Jones, Godden.

    I think if i remember correctly they could not handle us when we switched to two up top - I'd be tempted to go two up top for this one. Marosi Pask Mason MacFadzean Rose Hyam Allen Kelly Walsh Biamou Baka (think him and Biamou look good as a front two at peterborough away? Subs: Wilson...

    Hmm what a nice selection headache - Donny quite a big physical side in many ways made more for Shipley & McCallum imo than O'Hare & Mason. Shipley seems to link up well with Godden too! I'd go with the following tbh - will be very interesting to see what MR does. Marosi Dabo McCallum Rose...
