    I agree - more around in the pubs etc. Still, be careful reporting positive news.

    Also, one things for sure; if we don’t win, that taxi for Robins better get ready.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. MK Dons Match Thread - Saturday 11th Jan

    As with most games this season, I’m feeling optimistic about this afternoon. They have improved, so it won’t be as easy as expected, but we are still the superior team. I’d expect the same team as the last few games, but I’d like to see Allen given a good 30 minutes or so to make a mark. I’ve...

    Oxford - Are they showing the way

    No they aren’t. It’s always exciting to sign new players, but as others have said, we don’t need any. We might want a few, but we are not crying out for any particular position. The obviously worrying one is Godden (remember when people were writing him off before he got injured?), however...

    Transfer Rumour Bullshit/legit Rumours Jan 2020

    That’s a real sign of intent. However, I still stand by what I said at the start of the season; we have one of the strongest teams in the league. Therefore while it’s always exciting to see, transfer activity isn’t essential for us. The squad is strong enough, as long as Godden stays fit.

    4th Round Draw - Who d'ya fancy? (should we make it)

    This has the potential to be a unique (in a positive way) atmosphere. I’ve enjoyed the atmosphere at St Andrews, it’s nowhere near as negative as the Ricoh. Probably because the fans who attend want to get behind the team, regardless of politics. Therefore I think the atmosphere between the two...

    Match Thread Tranmere Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 1st Jan

    That pitch looks absolutely shite. I still think we’ll outplay them though, it’ll just be even more nerve wracking when we are playing it around at the back. If it is too dangerous, I hope MR does change things.

    SBT Veggie Society

    Good to hear; there is hope! Any particular veggie foods you were craving? We’ve just been for a mini shop and we picked up a few things recommended on here. We picked up the one of the meat alternatives beginning with an S (can’t find it on here now!) which looks interesting!

    Very much embracing the whole ‘new year, new me’ cliche, but my partner has never been a big fan of meat (cue jokes), and is very much into the environment so has been keen to try going Vegan for a little while now. So in the spirit of compromise, we are going to try being Vegan Sunday -...

    Match Thread Tranmere Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 1st Jan

    Looking forward to the game today, especially following the Wycombe game. The pitch will be a factor, but we played passing football on an awful Ricoh pitch last year. While only a handful of players were here then, it can be done. It would also be harsh to drop anyone after Wycombe so I think...

    Are you happy

    What a fantastic thread. The courage of those who have opened up is incredibly impressive. One thing I’d add on the friends front; there’s nothing wrong with having one group of friends. Despite going to uni, travelling, playing for different sports teams and working in different places, I...

    January Transfer Window - Who do we want?

    MR’s comments about playing in Birmingham just show how ridiculous the stance of not supporting the team while we’re there is. I can’t see anyone of importance going, the closest would be Hiwula who seems to have had a fall from grace. Not sure how much interest there would be though...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Lincoln City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Dec

    Those are standalone points, that aren’t linked and miles away from my initial point re bringing on Biamou. It’s a good debate to have, but not in the middle of a match. I 100% agree we shouldn’t be holding on. This is where MR massively let’s himself down, it’s crying out for a change and he...

    We’re worryingly getting deeper in our attacking play, as in our midfield attacking two aren’t as quick to get forward. At this point Godden is isolated. No signs of movement from the bench either.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Lincoln City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Dec

    Depends on the formation, his strength is link play and with two attacking midfielders behind him, it would play to his strengths. Plus, let’s be honest bar one impressive turn and shot Godden has done nothing at all. You can’t carry your striker when only playing on up there.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Lincoln City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Dec

    I’m in the middle of the ongoing argument as at times he is isolated but equally we are playing two attacking midfielders, so there is an intention to attack. As always, the football is good until the final third. Unfortunately the weak link is Godden. As I said in a previous post, he cannot...

    I know I’m against the grain, but I don’t agree. He looks more comfortable with the ball, but his crossing remains suspect.
