    Does anyone know when they have to announce TV selections by? With Sunderland, Sheff U and Burnley all coming in March/April it’s hard to envisage at least one of those games not being shifted for Sky coverage Also take into account our own good form possibly continuing and the Lampard factor...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    I shan’t be beating us up too much if we get beat tbh, these are a good side and whilst a loss is never good it wouldn’t be a disaster, we’ve shown what we can do the last few weeks and games against Leeds aren’t going to define us Their front three of Solomon James and Piroe are basically a...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Sunderland or Sheffield United to get 2nd is an awful pick As a purely footballing entity I’d probably say Sunderland, they are a decent side with good young players Sheff U a squad full of thugs, the two deserters and an absolute bellend in the dug out I probably dislike Sunderland fans more...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Honestly the most overrated footballer at this level of the last few years, I’ll never get why Hull and Luton forked out roughly £5m each on him McCallum was so clearly the better footballer when we both had them and I’d have him over Giles even now if offered

    Relegation Battle?

    Let’s be fair, up until the Bristol City win talk and worry of a relegation battle was not unfounded whatsoever I was certainly worried as we were conceding crap goals nearly every week but they’ve been cut out and we have found a winning formula I do think though it’s a pretty damning...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    A pretty ill tempered cup final in 1970 started it... The Service Crew and the Headhunters continued it It did a bit of a death when Abramovich took over at Chelsea and Leeds imploded financially but neither set of fans would say they like eachother I lived up there for 18 months, it doesn't...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    There is no rule specifically saying you can't watch other teams train... Leeds got done for not treating teams with 'Good Faith' It was a bit of an overkill from all parties concerned tbh, but as I said perfect for the theatre

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    'Spygate' where Bielsa sent his staff to watch Lampard's Derby team train through a hedge outside Derby's training ground Whilst not breaking any rules per se, Lampard takes exception and believes it to be un-sportsman like and Bielsa reveals it is pretty commonplace in South America and he has...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    A real test after our recent good form, and a warm reception guaranteed for our manager from the (presumably) sold out away end!😅 Think that lot will end up winning the League at a canter and I hope this side isn’t judged too harshly if we do get beat here I’d take any result that isn’t a...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Just glad the penny has finally dropped for Doug and Dean that not every player you sign has to be an early 20s 'project player' that you buy for cheap and sell for high We probably won't recoup a lot on Grimes, if anything but his pedigree could be invaluable

    Tavares

    Good manager in at that level at Burton, Gary Bowyer He may well get them out of it

    Tavares

    He won't, but the club did the same for Shipley where he was given a years contract and then immediately sold to Shrewsbury for a small fee

    Tavares

    If he went and did really well he would probably get a year so we could get some sort of fee for him

    Tavares

    Good luck to him, he was actually fantastic in his cameo at Wembley last season and that goal against PNE was good as well He will cause problems in that league and will probs stay there permanently if he impresses Surely if we are letting a wide option go all signs point towards Paterson...
