    Will we ever

    I think a lot of fans (of all clubs) unconsciously think that getting to the playoffs equals promotion. Regardless of whether we sneak in in 6th place, or spend half the season guaranteed playoffs (like Sunderland), its still a bit of a lottery. We've largely dominated both games, and lost to...

    Running

    I went up to the other side of Stoke On Trent last night to run the Mow Cop Killer Mile...... A 1 mile uphill road race with about 580ft of climb.... ave gradient 11%, but after about a km it kicks up to 25% gradient for a few hundred metres. I ran 8:28..... which is a guide to how tough it...

    Playoff Semi Final 1st Leg Bristol City - Sheffield Utd 08/05/25 8pm ko

    If we get through i hope Bristol City win. If Sunderland go through i'd prefer Sheff Utd to win.

    Sunderland AFC

    To be fair he's a busy guy..... You don't run the firm by being civil to people or typing coherently.

    A poor first post if we're being honest

    Sunderland AFC

    WestEndAgro is a hardman. Look at his name.

    Not getting a head of ourselves ….

    i think its absolutely 50/50 vs Sunderland. Which, given how they started the season, is a testament to how much we've progressed.

    Sunderland forum at it again

    I find them quite hypocritical...... Which to be honest is not massively different to football fans everywhere, but they seem to take it to an art-form..... constant references to Leeds and Newcastle being "arrogant", yet they believe they are still a top 10 club. They really need to stop...

    Play Off Final Holiday Clash

    Should we make the final, i'll be on a plane between Rome and Catania during the 2nd half (and most of any potential extra-time)

    Schadenfreude

    Well thats just football these days isn't it (and quite frankly why i have nothing like the passion for it that i used to) How many times on here do we have posts suggesting that we "shithouse" a lot more

    Schadenfreude

    Really don't understand this. Surely they were just celebrating a victory..... are Middlesborough supposed to be outraged at us for our celebrations yesterday......

    Match Thread Coventry City - Middlesbrough Match Thread - Saturday 3rd May

    Good performance in general, but its small margins.... Middlesborough were on top when we scored and could easily have been up a half time. Game could so easily have gone either way. Pleased to be playing Sunderland, but really we need to take them apart on friday..... no matter how shit...

    20 years on

    Used to go in the Forresters Arms (which we called the "long and skinny" on account of the layout of the bar). Then the Brewer and Baker. Depending on time we'd perhaps go in the Flying Standard before, and the Binley Oak on the way up to the ground. Remember standing outside the BInley Oak...

    Revenue

    At least the championship will be interesting next year (assuming we're still in it), with derbies vs Blues and Leicester.

    Running

    Well done all...... had a few from my training group do the Cov half (i think one came 6th), and there were three from the club at the London Marathon (quickest time 2:30) Talking of hot weather..... its now less than 4 weeks til i go to Sicily for the European Masters Mountain Running...

    Bottled It

    Hardly bottled it. On paper a draw in the final game and we're in the playoffs. (although i suspect we might need a win) Doubt we'll make it through the playoffs if we get there, regardless of form going in.

    Brad Collins

    Collins arguably made saves that kept us in the match..... until what was undoubtedly a howler. We don't know what Lampard sees in training, and quite frankly i trust his views over that of a baying mob of overweight pissheads on here.

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    Some of the claims on here that it was a conspiracy, and "we won" are frankly embarrassing. However.... it was a poor decision, and i certainly question whether it would even have been looked at down the other end.

    Jamie Allen Assault

    Konjic basically decked Chris Sutton in front of the West Terrace, after receiving loads of rough treatment all games. Stuff today does pale in comparison really.

    2 games to go

    Dropped points happen every season.... who can forget the 3-3 vs Swansea..... However we more than make up for it with late winners.....
