    Just seen the team sheet, wow big surprises! Should we be worried? Not anything I was expecting.

    If fit, Torp starts. Your best players should always start. He is a goal threat and dare i say a better option than Eccles. I like Eccles recent improvement even though he faded badly at Ipswich, but Torp is the better player easily. Simms had no service at Ipswich so gets to go again. I could...

    Ipswich Ratings

    TBF the game was one of them you watch pass you by. We dominated possesion overall more than 60/40 away from home with a patched up side lacking crucial players and a last minute sick note to add to the day. Sometimes momentum stalls and after a whole week off that's what it looked like. No one...

    I don't think i did Grendel but I do think it's time to move on from your one line barbs when a forum is about having constructive comment sharing. Perhaps when you give your head a wobble, you can also take part and give us your take on the game?

    Just not a good feel on the pitch today. Could still have been different had their keeper not turned up. But we got what we deserved tbh. A few just not on it, and yet i always felt Ipswich were there for the taking. I think we set up with too much respect for them and that's how it turned out...

    Are we giving too much respect to Ipswich with this line up and 3 at the back?

    The Overlap

    There's a whole generation of fans who only know Coventry City as a Championship and a lesser extent a league one club! Myself have nothing but fond memories of our unbroken 30+ years in the top flight, in which time I believe only Everton and Arsenal along with us were the only teams that never...

    My recollection Grendel you were castigating me for thinking the same thing?

    The ‘wobble’ month

    Suggesting a 50 point target - just 2 wins and a draw from what 6 games? Think there are still plenty of doomsayers on here.

    I'm thinking Stoke and Boro' away. This is another one. Ipswich improving and climbing the table, but a blip on Saturday at Oxford suggest they are not that good. Their striking department seems to be their issue. Still think they are a strong side but we have to believe we are the real deal and...

    Bta out for 6 weeks

    Asante was a bit hit and miss at first but then he found his role and has scored 10 goals. His confidence high and capable of taken a really good goal. Will be a miss. But Wright is yet to come back in. He can play wide left if EMC is injured, and I think he is more effective there for us.Rudoni...

    Are we going to blink?

    As a footnote I think Sheffield Utd will finish top 6. There are a lot of teams that are also-rans in this league. A few are now clearly starting to come to the fore.

    Are we going to blink?

    They are a january window striker away from solving that issue. Watch this space.

    Are we going to blink?

    Just a thought came to mind as we consider what a stunning season it has been so far with all the pundits saying we are nailed on for top spot. Looking at previous teams like Sheff.Utd and Burnley in their promotion seasons. They each blinked in form at some point, but then after a few quick...

    This is a win all day long right? Expect the unexpected when you least expect it! But seriously, we should be nailed on here. I hope FL does not get lulled into too many changes for the sake of it. Rudoni starts for me with Asante injured. Possibly keysler-Haden for Milan to have a break. But...

    Boro Player Ratings

    I'd seen Kitching ball watching Saturday and he's never a goal threat like Thomas. But tonight once we were 5 at the back he also got forward and he was rewareded with two goals. Both reactionary but he was aware and didn't hesitate. I was think Wolfy might come in but tonight he really stepped...

    The difference that was obvious tonight is we have goalscorers in our side. Get the chances and we invaribly score.
