    Match Thread Coventry City - Colchester United Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    God knows why but I think we will win on Saturday we have to react! 1-0 Cov! As for team I think we should switch to a plain 4-4-2 and ideally try to get Kelly to push on and Doyle hold in the centre of the park. Team Burge GK Grimmer RB Stokes LB Willis...

    Match Thread Accrington Stanley - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 14th Oct

    I'm struggling to see who has higher budget than us in this league.....Mansfield/Luton maybe but maybe not? Think we have top 3 budget in this league in all probability certainly a bigger budget than Accrington who we have just lost to and are now higher in the league than us.....

    I hope Stevenson does well Kelly missing is a loss though tbh......Stevenson is a more than adequate cover replacement but he needs to get back to being more confident/aggressive in possession of the ball - like he was when he was gaining the plaudits,,,,,hoping he does as Doyle does covering...

    Micky Quinn

    Hmm not sure where all this Quinn bashing has come about he was brilliant for us for a lot of his time maybe he was perfect fit with pace we had around him.....hell he even made Rosario look half decent!!! He had far more striking instinct and goalscoring ability than any of our squad at this...

    Think we will be unchanged start xi again and I am risking daring to predict a 2-0 victory! PUSB

    Match Thread Cambridge United - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 16th Sep

    I can see it being a 1-1 draw but hope we get the win the fa cup game still haunts me!! Think we may be unchanged but he may try to get McDonald back in? Would not surprise me though if McDonald on the bench think he will line up. Burge Grimmer Stokes Davies Willis Doyle Kelly Jones Vincenti...

    Just noticed despite injuries Stevenson not in match day squad tonight? Is he injured too? Just surprised he did not make start 18 if fit?

    Andreu's injury

    I'm a bit meh about him so far tbh - not too sure what all the fuss is about....nevertheless we are a bit bereft of attacking midfielders with Doyle/Kelly/Stevenson all defensive or certainly from what I have seen. As someone said earlier wouldn't mind seeing Stevenson in and higher up the pitch!

    Think I'll need to see who is actually out but hoping for a 1-0 win again even if scrappy given changes are likely to be needed from Saturdays start xi.

    Lee Burge

    I don't really count the Check a Trade either it is not as if we line up with our full strengh outfield xi is it. I don't really give a shit about any cups this year - though and fa cup run would be nice- the league is all important. Burge has two clean sheets in two league game he keeps his...

    Lee Burge

    Two games, two clean sheets cannot ask for too much more than that - he keeps his place. I think he has improved a lot O'Brien made a couple of bad cock ups Burge has come in and taken his opportunity and I think personally he has improved markedly. Certainly not the finished article but...

    Booing of team... some thoughts

    Hmm I've never booed but was bloody close at Cambridge last year I tell thee. The most annoying thing is the lack of urgency, pace,fight that I struggle with. Against Newport we were so one paced and did not seem to step it up after going a goal behind. I think a bit of increase tempo to save...

    Match Thread Chesterfield - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 2nd Sep

    I think we cannot play or need to play two holding central midfielders in current formation who do not go forward.....simple as that. Think we should go 4-4-2 in a diamond with Andreau playing at the tip of the diamond. I would like McNulty to play wide just to take him out the firing line a...

    Match Thread Chesterfield - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 2nd Sep

    As for McNulty for me he is not an out and our striker - however Vincenti has disappointed out wide and is arguably not a wide man too? McNulty does have good pace though and think Jones and him on flanks could stretch opposition defenders and Beavon and Nazon for me would hold the ball up...

    Stokes one of my favourite players - last chance means he needs to up his game to stay in start xi no-one should be undroppable and he has not been very good this season though hope he will improve of course. Keeping him in the team but if he played badly again would bench him and give Camwell...
