    You're saying we have spent £45m so shouldn't be expecting a defeat to Leeds, so I am pointing out that their squad will have cost a lot more, so maybe we should? By the way, I am not a defeatist - just making an observation! (I'll be at Elland Road losing my voice, regardless)

    Match Thread Leeds United - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 28th Sep

    I actually played in a game that we lost 9-7 in the Leamington Sunday league. Our opponents (Stockton) were already champions, and had been on the lash the night before. Our 'goalkeeper' was a lovely lad who looked like Catweazle, and had stood in for a couple of games. For one goal, he stood in...

    Motivation- Down to the players

    Agreed - but maybe that's one of the differences between the very top players, and those a level below. Some players obviously don't have the skill level of those at the top, but a lack of on pitch desire is difficult to fathom. It stands out with those players who put in 100% (although some get...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Only by 1 goal though. Regarding that - nobody seems to have mentioned that no City game this season has been won or lost by more than a single goal !

    Eustace said that their player had really big bite marks on him!

    If that's all he gets it's a disgrace - we need him to get a lengthy ban so that he can't play against us.

    How can Simms have been dropped, if we went with the same team? Regardless, MR said he got it wrong.

    Robin’s loyalist

    'Kin 'ell mate. One is running a football club on a sound financial basis - training facilities etc all been upgraded and an infrastructure set up around the manager and team. The players will change, some will be better, some will be worse, but if everything around the team is of a higher...

    Robin’s loyalist

    To be fair he might be great at running us as a football club, but supporters just look at the results. It was why everybody turned a temporary blind eye to SISU during our promotions, Wembley experiences.

    Can someone explain

    First half was a mess yesterday- second half, less so, but still not great. The Spurs game, we were beating them with a few minutes to go, so not sure we can have a go at the tactics for that. For me, we need the wide men to perform, be effective. That's why, with EMC not quite there yet, Wright...

    Robin’s loyalist

    If crowd/'support' turns on MR and he got the boot, think about what follows.... If we continued to struggle, crowd will then turn on players... Best players will want to leave - unsettled club. It can become a vicious circle. Although I am not one to boo (I did once against Morecambe - again...

    Tend to agree - i want a winger who will attack the full back consistently when they get the ball. Pre-injury that's what Tats was doing on a regular basis. may lose the ball now and then, but defenders hate a player that commits them.

    Fair dos - my mother (RIP) was Welsh and I have a lot of family in the Rhondda Valley, so actually have a lot of affinity with Wales. That said, I didn't want to get in the way of a good old stereotype (deserved your win today tbf, but still fuming over our first half set up),

    Match Thread Coventry City - Swansea City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Sep

    Said it elsewhere, but I suspect MR has a bout of the lurgy (partial reason for downbeat interview pre-match) As for today - particularly first half, their left hand side were getting through MVE / Asante far too easily. I don't know how much the coaching team can see from the far side of the...
