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

    Guy looked into the data and entering in good form seems to have no correlation with winning the play-offs anyway and points total being more important (obviously) Good news for us is that since Lampard came in we're only 3 behind Sheff U on points and ahead of Sunderland/Bristol

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    We're two players off (RB, RW) having two first-team players in every position. Don't think we can make the squad too much bigger without having more players who basically have no minutes Guess the debate is whether there is enough quality in our back-up options

    Relegated players

    McGuinness & Plymouth CB's looked good in a low block - but unsure if they'd suit our high-line? We need a quick CB If we're playing Wright at ST next year then Bundu to rotate with EMC would be good Gyabi looked good - although is a Leeds player (in the last year of his contract)

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

    Any sending off would just give them a rest for the final no - unless they all start biting each other? We want lots of red cards for the winning team in the second leg

    Not getting a head of ourselves ….

    I really thought we were destined in 2023 and was still annoyed 2 weeks later after we lost. Felt we'd missed our chance and had such a crazy rebuild to do so I thought we might fade away a bit The semi-final I had zero expectation and the comeback was incredible so was gutted but brushed it...

    We would have been better off with Robins

    I'm not sure it is really about Robins or Lampard individually but the coaching staff as a whole & the club (including Robins) fucking up the appointments in the summer - Robins, Adi & Lawrence would have got us play-offs - Lampard, Boateng & Carr would not have got us play-offs I felt Robins...

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

    The confidence in others is reducing my confidence - we still need to perform at our best to beat these Southampton finished poorly last year and turned it on for the play offs, so Sunderland could too Le Fée and Ballard being back (neither played in the league match) makes them a lot better...

    Our midfield

    Will be a shame if Sheaf goes this summer as I’d love to see a whole season of this midfield (well 2/3 of a season with Sheafs injury record)

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

    Are they going to play the same CB pairing as the last game? Is there an argument for playing BTA on the left and Wright through the middle as he terrorised them so much last time

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

    Probably in our best interest to keep him out of the shop window if he performs like he did earlier this season

    Watching the Boro game in Hackney…

    Haven't lived in London for 7 years so this list may be out of date. But pubs I used to watch football in: Duke of Wellington (by Haggerston station) Heart of Hackney Pub on the Park Molly Bloom's The Crooked Billet Would definitely ring ahead and ask them to put it on a screen for you - as...

    Who would you sell?

    Wright would be my choice if we could get 15m but just don't see it - MvE will be the one with the interest if Sheaf doesn't go and he deserves a shot at the Prem tbf Regarding Sheaf - I'm struggling to see the market for him. Southampton & Luton could be still interested - but I doubt he'd go...

    Match Thread Luton Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 26th Apr

    Wasn't too disappointed on Saturday night as the draw didn't change that we'd need to win to secure playoffs Now Bristol have been hammered that point looks like it could cost us 5th (and I fancy us against Sunderland) - so now I'm frustrated

    Lampard

    10 points in 9 games has been a bit of a disaster and it does fall at Lampard's door that we haven't managed more (even with the injuries we should have done better) He still got us into the play offs positions though from looking over our shoulder without having a full pre-season - so he has a...

    It was during an injury crisis that Lampard last came up with one of the best runs in our recent history - so fingers crossed he can pull it out the bag again 🤞

    2 games to go

    Play offs haven't been won by a team in 5th/6th since 2018/19 (a certain Derby manager lost in the final) Only one team from 5th/6th has made it to the final since that year also (a certain team in sky blue) Not to piss on anyone's chips, hopefully we're due one, but that doesn't check out
