    Everyone's too happy...

    I think it is the one thing that could scupper our season, barring an absolutely horrific injury list pile up. I too think he WOULD stay. His move last time cost him dearly. We need stability and Robins is very much part of that stability requirement.

    Coventry city centre

    Oh and can I just add, I quite often criticise Coventry for many things, so don't feel a blinkered bias coming through on my behalf. Spon St annoys me because it could be so much more. Same too with Whitefriars and the Swanswell and I hate both the Britannia hotel (shudder) and the swimming...

    Coventry city centre

    I disagree. I don't think it is worse than anywhere else. And why focus just on cities? Plenty of big towns out there too and I have been to loads of them. Have to say I haven't been to Leicester or Nottingham lately, but been to loads of other places and the only one that has really impressed...

    Anyone seen footage of the 'stonewall' Vincenti penalty incident? If so, does it confirm everyone's first impression?

    Yeah, sounds like he was going to cut him up into little pieces.

    Jordan Willis... would you keep or sell??

    You also have to factor in this is the first time McDonald and Willis have played together isn't it. Will take a little time to gel.

    Coventry city centre

    There is something happening on the old C&W hospital site. Can't quite remember now what it is. A wild guess would be ........... student flats.

    Coventry city centre

    Yep. Said a load of times, they should extend the city centre and incorporate the Swanswell in to it. Would improve the area immeasurably.

    Things that annoy you

    Why have I been traveling to work in a small Hyundai for the last 5 years then? I could have gone by spaceship and been there in about 12 seconds.

    Crowd be interesting next week.

    I think we will be okay. DKE and Grimmer for right back. Stokes, Haynes and Camwell for left back. Pearson, Willis, Hyam and McDonald for CB, with Stokes who can cover too.

    Did any of you see what Eakin alluded to? He said one of their players stamped on Jodi Jones.

    Things that annoy you

    Sci fi films where they imagine the future and there are giant leaps forward obviously in technology and space travel etc., but they then allow little aspects firmly rooted in the present to be on display. Just watched Rogue One. Not a Star Wars fan anyway, but I still enjoyed it. However...

    Yep indeed. You felt with Mowbray once that slump started he really struggled to know how it turn it round and we kept just doing the same things hoping it would change. With Robins I am sure he will mix it up, change tactics and formations and plan for each game differently. Poor, late...

    Ratings vs. Grimsby

    We won't walk it I don't think and we will have a number of tough matches for sure, but can you really see us losing lots of games this season? There's no-one we should fear and I don't think you can look at any team and say they are going to run away with it. Robins has brought in...

    Coventry city centre

    As I said before, I travel all over and usually spend whole days in city centres and I see a trend all over and hardly anywhere at all escaping. Coventry bashing though has become like a national sport in these parts and we are a very, very lazy, easy target for people. Case in point was when...

    Crowd be interesting next week.

    It can, but we are one of the favourites to go up, we all pretty much think Robins has recruited really, really well and assembled a very good squad, this time we recruited earlier and we went for spirit and leadership qualities as much as anything else and because we recruited early players...

    Crowd be interesting next week.

    Yep, indeed you can. I just remain confident that here in League Two, with this squad and Robins at the helm, we will not have the same sort of calamitous slump. Middlesborough fans did warn us that though Mowbray was great while things were going well, once things strated to go wrong he just...

    Wasn't a dig at Mowbray here. Was just pointing out that Robins is a whole different kettle of fish and I honestly don't think we will ever see a Mowbray esque astonishing slump from Robins. And anyway, as you very well know, you very naughty man, I never ever said Mowbray was the worst of all...

    Yeah. Didn't mention that bit cos it was all too obvious. :)
