    “No-one else will enjoy working with him.”

    Love this tongue-in-cheek comment from Robins in his interview about O'Hare! Speaks highly of him and also comes across as someone who really understands the mental side of the game. I think a lot of us sit in this camp: "Camp: so frustrated with O'Hare for not scoring/creating more (when he...

    Kane's positioning vs Millwall

    It might just have been toward the end of the second half, but Kane was playing really really deep. More like a RB than RWB. It was really clear comparing one side to the other. Maatsen was over the half way line and Kane was sitting in our half. Instructions? New to the system? Maatsen out of...

    Todd Kane interview in The Sun

    Have to say when I saw he was doing an interview my first thought was... Uh oh! ... But he hasn't claimed to be better than anyone else at Cov this time! Interesting enough read though...

    The 72 team of the week

    Just saw this and it doesn't look like it's been posted here yet. Three Coventry players in the team of the week. Moore, McFadzean and Dabo. Thoroughly deserved in my opinion. Should have had Allen as well though...

    Championship transfer business ranked

    Just saw this article by Football 365. It's interesting to see outsider perspective on something hotly debated on here. They don't give City a lot column inches, but ranked us quite high on their list https://www.football365.com/news/tier-list-ranking-every-championship-clubs-transfer-window

    Curl in from a corner challenge

    Our sponsor have made a promotional video of some of our players attempting to score from a corner. Sadly Hamer not in it (maybe it would be too unfair?). Special recognition for our new signing Ben Moore. Not sure when he turned up! 😅

    Team of the week (The 72)

    The 72 have have named Sheaf in their team of the week. Well deserved in my opinion. He really does seem to have come on this season! Long may it continue https://the72.co.uk/247772/the72s-championship-team-of-the-week-birmingham-city-coventry-stoke-names-all-feature/

    Jake Clarke-Salter's Left Foot

    I know it's very early days for him, but the fact that he is able to release the ball with his left down the channels could make a huge difference this season. The number of times the out-ball down that side (even just this season) is not quite right (either too close to the middle, too far...

    Derby and Sheff Wed sanctions

    Haven't seen this mentioned anywhere so thought I'd post this. Alan Nixon has been tweeting details of the sanctions both will face next season. Looks pretty tame, but apparently they only made a couple of late payments. Derby County, Sheffield Wednesday dealt suspended points penalties – Alan...

    Championship club member shirts?

    So we are more than 50% way through the season, but (unless I missed something) there has been no information about when the special one off kit will be used/ delivered to fans. I suspect they might try to coordinate delivery with the game which it will be worn for, but I'd like to be able to...

    Interest in Dabo?

    Probably nothing in this (I really hope not anyway!) but saw it and thought I'd see if anyone else had heard anything? No doubt he's on a few radars after the season he had, but unless it was a stupid money offer I can't see the club letting him go!

    Julien Dacosta 2019/20 – scout report

    Stumbled across this article today. It's an interesting read which gives a bit of insight into the type of player Dacosta is. Sorry if it's already been posted, but I didn't see it on the other threads. PUSB...

    O'Hare or Walsh

    Hypothetically, if we got promoted and we were in the position to sign one of them, who would you go for? It's a tough one, but I think id go for Walsh. Just watched this compilation video with a quote from McFadzean about him... Reminded me about just how good his passing can be!

    Ipswich tickets?

    Any spares? After 2. Such a shit allocation considering the size of their ground isn’t it. Anyway, hopefully a couple not needed & I can buy them.

    Six pointers

    Firstly. What an important win tonight. Now. At the other end of the table, people would be talking about "six pointer" games. I can see why fans would be hesitant to talk in those terms about todays game. But after the win, surely we have to acknowledge it for what it was. Beating a rival...

    Changing a winning team

    There has been a lot of talk of replacing either Westbrooke or Shipley with O'Hare for the next game. Completely understand this, as he's been an exciting player so far and looks a class act. My question is though: with the team unbeaten in the league, does anyone deserve to loose their place?

    Goals v Oxford

    Our next league apponents have shipped 9 goals in their last 3 games (including 3 against what appeared to be a fairly toothless Bristol side). Surely with our attacking threat we will be putting them under a lot of pressure! (Of course, now that I've pointed this out, it will be a 0-0 snooze...

    Portsmouth peformance vs Bolton performance

    So we had a game where (by all accounts) we should have won, followed shortly by a game which we surely should have lost. We were lucky to not conceed a penalty early on today, had three ruled out at Bolton. As they say, what you gain on the swings, you lose on the roundabouts...

    Wesley Jobello so far

    Hi guys, only been able to watch the Bristol game so far, so I just wondered what people think of Wesley up to now. From what I saw in the last game he adds a threat going forward, has pace enough to beat a man, but doesn't always seem to want to run at them. I did see him out-muscle their...

    Anyone know if there is a pub that the Cov fans are going to?
