    Cup draw

    It's not ideal, but if we are also playing 2 days before it's not completely unfair on them.

    Match Thread Norwich City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 3rd Feb

    The criticism isn't because he's a bad player, far from it. Its borne out of the frustration that most of us can see that he has the tools to be an exceptional player, certainly at Championship level, but in reality has been a fairly peripheral member of the team who is by no means certain of...

    Championship thread 23/24

    I think most of us understand we have a chance, but that's what it is at the moment .... a chance. There are only 2 places up for grabs as Ipswich could still have relegation form for the rest of the season and still make the play offs! We are therefore one of probably 7 clubs that could make...

    Best chance for both was probably near post, particularly Wright's.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield Wednesday [FA] Match Thread - Tuesday 6th Feb

    Not wise to jump ahead, but should we get to quarter finals I would rather a home game we might have a better chance of winning.

    Match Thread Norwich City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 3rd Feb

    I haven't seen any recent stats, but to my memory Godden has missed quite a few chances this season that I'm sure he would have finished in previous seasons (including 2 penalties). While pace has never been his thing, he nevertheless also appears to have lost a yard in pace and seems very...

    Ben Sheaf

    The reason Wharton went for more than we could get for Sheaf wasn't because he is 'currently' better, but purely because of his potential. Was the same reason Alex Scott cost a lot more last Summer than we received for Hamer, even though Hamer was a much more effective Championship player at...

    First half he did really well to get back and challenge Seargeant when it looked like he had worked himself a free shot at goal.

    For the sending off I'm not even sure Sargeant would have reached the ball before the keeper if he hadn't been challenged by Kitching. Split decision thinking on Kitchen's part though and there's no way he could have been sure of that.

    Bedwetters guide to Summer 2024 departures

    What we don't want is much interest in the better players we need to stay in order for us to give it a good go next season. Keeping the likes of Sheaf, Van Ewijk & Sakamoto will be crucial.

    Championship thread 23/24

    We have a chance of play offs of course, but for the likely 2 places up for grabs so do West Brom, Norwich, Hull, Sunderland and Middlesbrough. While Watford and Preston are close enough points wise I don't think either have enough to make it. For the rest of us it will probably come down to the...

    We're in Safe Hands

    The location would also be fine if street parking were allowed like it was at HR. The CBS is far more accessible than if 25,000 were descending on Warwick University!

    If MR doesn't want to start with Torp just yet I would prefer Kelly over Lati in midfield. While Lati can undoubtedly do a defensive job in midfield, he is fairly limited in terms of being an attacking option. Kelly's performances when he came in for Sheaf after he got injured at the end of last...

    Perhaps when we play at Blackburn Fadz will treat us to a Mo Konjic type performance, from when he played for Derby against us :)

    I agree with you as this being why Torp wasn't brought on at that point. Bringing on Allen instead of Lati would have shown more positive intent, and is what I felt MR should have done, given we were at home and trying to play on the front foot. If we had been away to Southampton or Leeds and...

    Applause on 87 min Tonight: CBS Architect and City Fan Geoff Mann Dies

    First time I've seen one of those minute's applause coincide with a goal. Often wondered how it would work out. In a way a goal for us makes it a most apt celebration, but not so sure about if we concede, as its unlikely people will continue to applaud.

    Debuts

    Seem to remember Marcus Hall having a terrific game in a televised match at HR (Man U maybe). It was the first time I'd seen him, but not sure if it was his actual debut.

    Debuts

    Stuart Pearce - can't remember who the QPR winger was, but within the first few minutes Pearce had taken the man and ball in what was deemed a fair tackle in those days, dumping him into the first few rows in the Sky Blue Stand. The winger unsurprisingly didn't contribute anything for the...
