    That Penalty decision

    Not saying this with my sky blue glasses on. Watched the match back. Absolute nailed on penalty for us; their pen call, no way, he dived and minimal contact. Red card, all day long. For Bowyer to say it was a professional foul that happens every week shows what a neanderthal he is. Woods was...

    SISU Back your man...

    Going to be really difficult to upgrade our squad in January. Loans to cover potential injuries and suspensions maybe. We do need more bodies, but PL loans want guaranteed playing time. Maybe some Chelsea reserve would be an upgrade, but who do you drop? Lightweight currently regarding left...

    Match Thread Birmingham City (H) - 7:45 Tue 23rd Nov

    Been a lot of draws when we have played Brum in the last couple of seasons. Hope their injuries and Gardner suspension will give us the edge. Can't remember Gardner playing for us on loan. When was that and was he any good?

    Where do you think we'll finish this season ??

    I am a Cov fan so I expect the wheels to come off every match. At my age, if we were still at Highfield Road I would probably have been banished to the Kop with the old moaners. Not sure where they should put me out to pasture at the CBS, as it is noisy everywhere except in the posh bit above...

    Ben Sheaf

    Don't understand why Kelly has suddenly become the whipping boy. He missed pre-season and that is often a precursor to a catch-up season and some poorer performances. See Dabo and Rose how they performed last year after being out for all the early games. Kelly used to be the first name on the...

    Birmingham attendance

    So many matches over the years. Was a Saturday so unlikely to be league cup. Maybe a league game. Not 100% was Dave Bennet but hey ho, some Leeds fans were seriously awful. See also when they trashed the all-seater stadium at Highfield Road throwing the seats on the pitch. Never trust a nazi.

    Our fans

    The richer the supporters become, the more the atmosphere dips. Will happen to any club who end up in the Prem.

    Birmingham attendance

    Was on my own in the home end at Elland Road in the cup game when we won. Made up as they were a right bunch of racist twats. Loads of National Front supporters openly selling their newsletter outside the ground. They booed Dave Bennet, I think it was, every time he touched the ball.

    Match Thread Sheffield Utd (a) - 12:30 - Sat 20th

    As much as our subs changed the game for us along with our midfield really tiring, thought McGoldrick changed it for them and was real class despite missing the chances. Thought Fleck looked average. The Sheffield fans say we hate Fleck. Is that true? I was sad to see him leave at the time and...

    Hamer

    Hamer, good player, nearly a brilliant player. Sees a pass but execution not always quite there when playing between the lines. Needs to shoot more like he did when he first arrived. He has goals in him but seems constrained and looking for an extra pass. The header he scored last season from...

    Coventry's most important/memorable games

    Losing to Kings Lynn. Meant we got Jimmy Hill. Winning against Hitler. My dad said we were going up before the war intervened. Hitlers fault not ours. Wolves at home 3-1 as I was on the pitch for the second time as a young whippersnapper (first was Sunderland in cup same season) Invading not...

    January transfer window

    James was and is a top quality player. He is expensive for a reason and his injury record would always be a concern for any club. It is no coincidence Barnsley's season took off last season when he joined them. See Barnsley's posts that said he was one of the best players they have ever had in...

    Any players worth having from points deducted teams?

    Derby, Reading possibly others to follow. Allowing for our financial restrictions any players we should be looking at to poach for next season. Guess it depends on which league we are in. Think we will just miss out on promotion, but you never know.

    Chants ?

    I suggested that on another thread. Even Ted Lasso uses it.

    We are not great away, they are struggling. Several quality ex-players in their team and Billy. What could possibly go wrong. I would settle for a draw and be over the moon (Copyright Ron Atkinson) if we won.

    January transfer window

    Moore to date has been a massive improvement. Gyo and Godden (now fully fit for the first time since we signed him) likewise. Think Sheaf is class but can lose concentration near the end of games. Kelly is an integral part of our squad and got a contract extension for more than just his...

    January transfer window

    Agree to a degree. Often Dabo has the ball at his feet and I am willing him to hit it first time but he takes an extra touch. That is not a pace problem, that is decision making issue. Top coaches I assume say don't just cross if there is noone to pick out, take an extra touch and be more...

    January transfer window

    Think we have spent most of our budget so far. The National Insurance increase will add to our existing wage bill and has to be factored into all existing and future contracts. Fuel increases may have an impact depending on our contracts with the Wasps. That said, we have bigger than forecast...
