    Our midfield

    It's a thought but not having seen him play there it's impossible for me to say, although I have doubts as to whether his aerial crossing would be good enough. I guess he would be more like Haji, cutting inside the box from the wing. Don't get me wrong, I liked him when he played for us but I...

    Our midfield

    We have a great midfield for the Championship. Grimes, Rudoni and Sheaf as starters and Torp, Eccles and Allen on the bench. That’s pretty good. If he was still with us, I honestly don’t think Callum O’Hare would get much game time. With everyone fit it is entirely conceivable that he wouldn’t...

    We would have been better off with Robins

    I was one of those who was in the “Give Robins more time to turn it around” camp. He was a great manager for us and I truly believe he saved our club. One thing I never understood though was the opposition from a lot of fans to Lampard’s appointment. It seemed to me that the only sensible...

    Match Thread Coventry v Sunderland Championship Playoff 1st Leg Friday 9th May

    I think we will win on Friday. The away leg is going to be tricky, so I would like a two goal advantage to take to their place. I’m going for 2-0 to us at home and either a 1-0 defeat or 1-1 away. That will do nicely 🙂

    Clive Eakin on CWR

    I will really miss him. Football’s answer to Murray Walker! I can only hope he’s going to Sky F1. Him and Martin Brundle would be the dream team. I can hear him now, just as Norris laps Verstappen, saying “Norris in real danger from Senna now”. 🙂 The guy’s a legend.

    It was nice to see. He clearly has pace and talent but - rather like Kasey Palmer - he needs to improve his consistency. If he can do that he will be a very valuable player for us.

    I have just heard one bit of good news. Our play-off final match against Sheffield United or Bristol City is to be held at our other home ground 👍

    I agree. Collins does distribute the ball better but the key task of a goalkeeper is to keep the ball out of the net and on that count Wilson is far superior.

    I thought Saka was immense today. Back to his old self with his ball control, crossing and general trickery. He also worked hard defensively when he tracked back. Without that I don’t think we could have allowed MVE to take throw-ins far upfield on the left.

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

    To think that, a few months ago, many folk on this forum wanted Ruud van Nistelrooy as our manager rather than FL 😆 I must also confess that I was in the “give Mark Robins more time” camp because I loved him for all that he did in turning our club around. To be honest I always will but looking...
