    Hope that Robins still bollocks them after the game for that goal conceded. Was pure complacency, left ourselves 7 on 3 in the box.

    Didn't think we'd see a worse team than Wycombe this season but from an organisational point of view Bradford are all over the place.

    Missed the first 15 minutes training with my own team, have a feeling I've missed all the goal action today! Would like us to go for the throat, go for an early 3rd and then get some minutes into the legs of Kelly, Jones and Bakayoko. Gonna be tonnes of space for Bayliss, Thomas and Hiwula as...

    Sterling

    Our midfield/forward signings seem to be made on base attributes combined with fitting a certain personal profile rather than going after established players who will be direct upgrades in various positions. Robins is then retraining them into the positions he wants them or developing the...

    These late goals are massive. When teams get the self-belief that they can score at any point up to the final whistle then they become very dangerous. Golden opportunity to string 4 league wins together at Bradford too. That has happened only 3 times since we were relegated from the Prem (i...

    Player of the season so far?

    Willis has been very consistent but I do feel the back 4 are able to play what's in front of them now without the worry of what is going on behind them. From that perspective Burge for me - has visibly improved all the suspect areas of his game.

    Burge - 7 - Solid all round game without really having to make a save. Did very well early on with the shocking backpass from Davies. Brown - 7 - Probably his best full game for us so far. Looked solid bar one dodgy pass in the 2nd half and I'm please his performances are going in the right...

    Great result and 3 wins in a row! Never as comfortable as it could have been but a lot of pressure off going to Bradford now.

    Doyle's corners have been really good today but his free kicks and general passing are awful again. We could create so much more if he had a bit more composure because when we do create it tends to be a good chance. Give a simple pass to the kids to be creative with instead of trying to be Pirlo...

    Gonna have to block you I'm afraid. Match thread during the game should be about the game and a troll-free zone.

    Sterling is brimming with confidence. Great to see. Bit more swagger to him than previously.

    Hiwula should have buried his chance that lead to the corner in the first place.

    What's the point of getting a yellow for that though. The lino is hardly gonna go 'Ok, as you're in my face screaming, I'll change my mind.' 80 mins to play and our only defensive player in the midfield can't make a tackle.

    How has something as simple as a booking confirmation or an invoice from the company not been shared 12 days after the event? To start phoning individuals before that 15 minute job is done is like putting a plaster on your knee when your head's been chopped off. The mob mentality is completely...

    We'll have reached the magic 100 points with victory in the 41st game on the current trajectory. Robins to play himself up front with a one legged Biamou for the final 5 games.

    What area of Coventry has the highest amount of City fans per capita?

    You can't count the ones in the ground. It gives places like Cheylesmore an unfair advantage when they have the London Road Cemetery.
