    It quite often happens that certain managers can bring out the best in players. Can be a motivational thing (Brian Clough was excellent at getting the best out of players who weren't that great elsewhere), or can be positional, playing a player in a position and a system that suits. Some...

    Match Thread Coventry v Bradford Match Thread - Saturday 11th Mar

    I am convinced Beavon will play and will probably be one of the first names on the team sheet too. Reckon Robins will plump for Willis as well. RCC (fingers crossed) DKE Willis Clarke Turnbull (but hopefully Stokes) G Thomas Reilly Stevenson Jones Beavon K Thomas

    I'm also interested to see if Robins sees George Thomas as a striker or continues to use him as a wide player. I also wonder if might consider Haynes as a left midfielder rather than full back too. Team selection tomorrow should prove interesting.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all to see Reid in there. Bradford though of course will be well versed in how to handle him, with him being their ex player.

    Yeah, but this 62,000 at each end isn't it?

    Rose ruled out for the season

    It's a valid point. The only time he was any good for us was when he was a box to box player and getting into the opposition penalty area. He looked pretty good doing that. As soon as he stopped doing that he became a bit pointless and offered little to the team

    That was my defence in my stalking trial, though I focused more on the several doppelgangers angle to be honest.

    Can Robins Perform A Miracle ?

    Yeah, but wasn't that just 3 goals, not 8 wins. ;) If it DID happen I think we would all have to be peeled off the ceiling wouldn't we? I can't even begin to imagine how I would feel if we were to achieve such a feat. Surely the best feeling ever FA Cup final apart. All I would say at the...

    Daft and dumb things we have done

    Do you think it is a generation thing? Think I have only been offered drugs once in my life. I declined. Someone was passing round marijuana cakes at a party. I think over the past 20 years or so they have been easier to get hold of haven't they? Can't remember anyone from school or my teens...

    The guy on there on Twitter who said he thought the thing was credible, he's just joking, right? It's a funny ad, but it's just an ad.

    EXCLUSIVE: Coventry City chairman Tim Fisher dismisses takeover rumours and insists Mark...

    But I'm with Nick here. I don't think anyone would buy a season ticket purely based on a statement like this. People will either buy or not buy. Signing a good player could sway influence. Simple words though would hold no credence in forming fans' opinions in my opinion. And besides, surely...

    A bit different that one though, don. That one talks of asking Sisu and negotiating with Sisu and him doing his best, certain things he would like to do but that are out of his hands, having to look at the numbers etc. This new one definitely sounds more positive and comes across like it will...

    Ahh, that would have saved the consistent badgering of my postman every day for the past 10 days or so. ;)

    Can Robins Perform A Miracle ?

    Yes, he can perform a miracle. Can he keep us up? No. I think he will change our form around and we could well win 5 or 6 games. That in itself is a miracle considering we have only won 5 games out of 35 matches. Survival is a bridge too far.

    If we are doing well I would expect it be around 8,000, though it has to be factored in that there will probably be some very low away followings up here at the Ricoh.

    EXCLUSIVE: Coventry City chairman Tim Fisher dismisses takeover rumours and insists Mark...

    I guess at the end of the day it all boils down to whether we trust and believe Mark Robins, or whether we think he just wants a job here and will say anything. Proof will be in the pudding as has been said. Let's see if players are brought in swiftly this summer and that they seem like...
