    Quite a devastating day in terms of City's fortunes

    What I don't get is that in the last two games we were scoring goals and creating chances and looked very good coming forwards. Yesterday we barely created any chances at all by all accounts.

    Quite a devastating day in terms of City's fortunes

    Really believed this season would be different, Dave. I think if we take another dive this season and slump into mediocrity it will totally break my spirit. I keep saying that at some point we will surely find a level we can really compete at and I have been convinced this season is it. We...

    Match Thread Port Vale - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 26th Dec

    Well, hate to say I told you so, but I said at the start of the season we didn't have enough cover in midfield, but a number of posters dismissed that notion and said we'd be fine. I was worried that we only had Doyle and Kelly in the middle really, with just Ben Stevenson as back up. We were...

    Quite a devastating day in terms of City's fortunes

    Yeah, might be dramatic, but I felt devastated too. Really buggered up my Boxing Day. I was in the car with my daughter and was happily enjoying the day and listening to the match commentary, but the moment Port Vale scored I sensed we would lose and immediately switched off the radio. Changed...

    Might be worth just skipping next season for the Skins and moving on to 2019/20 season. This is the Redskins schedule for next year. Bloody hell that's tough on paper as it stands.

    Love snow

    Actually, just a word of warning to be careful out there. It's not the snow so much, but more the underlying water. Encountered a number of stretches of very large puddles this morning. Radford Road, Foleshill Road, Cash's Lane. Some were at least 3 inches deep. Guessing some drains are...

    Yep, looking good and you would expect at least a 50-60 lead. Time will tell.

    Love snow

    Yep and I bet loads of people will be moaning the schools are all closed again.

    Best Christmas special

    Yeah, agree. Even just for the one liners. Should have ditched it after about 3 series though.

    And England sitting pretty at 143/2 and Cook on 74. Still feel a collapse isn't a million miles away though.

    Quite a devastating day in terms of City's fortunes

    Shows how sometimes just a single win or defeat can change things drastically. (Is it okay for me to use 'drastically?;))

    Are we happy

    Not today I'm not. Was convinced we wouldn't lose. Wasn't expecting a win, but thought we could at least get a draw there.

    Quite a devastating day in terms of City's fortunes

    Hence I said DAY, a devastating day. Not talking about the season or the rest of the campaign to come, I was talking about today. Thought that was pretty clear right there in the title.:) And I said 'massive' because there is a big difference between being in 3rd, IN an automatic promotion...

    Terrible Christmas Presents

    Actually, I think my worst present was going out for Christmas dinner, paid for by my parents. All food choices pre-ordered over a month ago and table booked two months ago. So, get there (it's a carvery, but I am obviously vegetarian) and we pretty much immediately get our starters, only my...

    Quite a devastating day in terms of City's fortunes

    Who has said it is? I am merely pointing out the difference today between us winning and losing I'm terms of the table and the fact that we can't keep doing this. Two wins on the bounce at home, two defeats on the bounce away.

    I saw the other day on the Beeb site they were talking about a lot of the younger generation were moving away and out of Russia. I think the younger generation are a lot more questioning in their attitudes.

    Yeah, I know. Weird isn't it. She is totally and completely obsessed with Putin and will not hear a word against him. All I can tell you is she's watching endless Russian TV programmes, that look a bit like Question Time, but they are all standing at podiums as per our leadership debates over...

    Nope, Russian and she totally blames Ukraine for the Russians having to go in and 'help people' over there. She watches videos every single day with Russian politicians slagging off Ukraine blaming them for everything. In her world Putin is a great, kind and generous man who would never hurt...
