    Match Thread Coventry City vs Lincoln City Match Thread - Saturday 3rd Mar

    Based on the fact we had snow ploughs our and staff clearing the pitch/walkways etc, and Lincoln were first to tweet mentioning that it might be off, all indicate this was driven by them. The fact it’s been called off on the morning of the game makes it even worse; doesn’t leave much time to...

    It’s getting worse to be fair. The pitch will be fine, it’ll be the walk ways etc. I’m sure ACL are on top of it, they’re great landlords.

    It’ll be on, all of our attacking players will perform, we will play attractive football, BOTH our starting strikers will score in the same game and Reid will create them both. 3-0 (JCH, McNulty, Haynes). Why not.

    Any criticism of our academy is ridiculous. The argument we are where are because of it, or because of playing players too early, or whatever the argument gets changed to when challenged is nonsensical. I’m not looking at the stats, but anecdotally it feels as though we must have one of the...

    Yep, the same thoughts crossed my mind. I think ‘Typical City’ is the default thought for most of us when things seem to be improving/going well. However, March is my birthday month and I’m predicting it’s going to coincide with an unbeaten run....

    Just to clarify; it was a tongue in cheek comment. It’s a great result and in the space of a few days we all have a reason to be excited again. I’m very much looking forward to Saturday and us returning to the play off places....

    He biggest issue with a 4-2-3-1 is the same one we’ve had all season - a lack of wingers. Earlier in the season we had Jones, an actual winger, on one, and then one of Vincenti/DKE/McNulty etc on the other. Tomorrow, once again, we only have one available, this time it’s Reid. The second issue...

    So weak down our left. Literally no point Barratt playing. I take back the creativity comment. He’s unfit and out of his depth.

    Their set pieces are very threatening. We’re trying to play from the back, which is different and promising, but risky against a premier league team. Great fans as always.

    Very good. Not entering into the Biamou debate, it’s been done to death.

    Potentially a show of attacking intent from Robins, with the inclusion of Haynes, Barrat and JCH. We all know Haynes can’t defend but he will push forward, and while Barratt isn’t fit, he’s looked like he has something about him in terms of creativity. JCH is a bit of a wildcard, but I imagine...

    Are they serving beers at the ground? Decision time re whether to have another at the pub or one in the ground.

    Two hours away from Brighton - despite the fact I know we’re going to lose and probably show our tactical ineptness once again, I can’t help but be a little excited for the away day. A shock could happen - 1-2.

    Have we sold out yet? I’m even more frustrated as I’ve now got one to sell!

    Like most people realistically I thought we had no chance, but there was a slight slither of optimism that we could produce a shock. However, following the last few result, and even more so performances, that has disappeared. Still, hopefully it’ll be a good day trip and a good night out in...

    Cliche, but being a Coventry fan has to be the absolute worst. It doesn’t help that I’m slowly starting to lose the faith I had in Robins somewhat. His continuous lack of strategy or tactics is infuriating.

    Pleased with the equaliser and the fact it sounds like we are improving. Tonight is a massive game, a loss will take a toll on both players and fans confidence. I absolutely in no way want us to lose (ever), but I really hope a win does not blind Robins to the increasingly obvious lack of/poor...
