    Hope it’s not Sakamoto playing narrow, it negates his best traits. Feel for Simms, especially if Wright is in his half arsed mode. Hoping Woolf proves Wrexham was a one off….. Not a massive fan of the selection or potential tactics/formation, but still confident we’ll win. Nice to have a...

    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec

    Not worried about Ipswich. Their defence is average and will be no match for us if we play on the front foot. Plus the Simms redemption arc is in full flow.

    EMC’s playing well, but his fitness is pretty terrible.

    Need Rudoni at 10. He isn’t lasting 90 so we need to make full use of him while we can. Appreciate RW options are limited but we’re one down so need to get our strongest player in their strongest positions.

    Always remember Jones being a tosser on the sidelines too. Another reason I’m hoping for a big win.

    For any remaining non-believers

    It’s all very surreal at the minute. It’s odd but I feel almost a bit numb to it. Every game we go into I’m genuinely expecting a win. Don’t get me wrong I’m absolutely loving it, it’s weird being a Cov fan and people actually knowing a) who we are and b) up to date information (top of the...

    Not that concerned if BTA and Wright are out, EMC replaces BTA and Simms is on form. Sakamoto is the one, his creativity and influence on games is massive at the minute, a constant outlet.

    CCFC Statement

    Stuff like this is tribal and pathetic. Get them banned and miss the season we finally complete the redemption arc. Football is pure emotion, we all feel it, but we don’t all revert to caveman behaviours.

    Jamie Allen

    Watch his instinctive reaction to any goal we score in the unseens / highlights etc, it’s always to run straight to the fans going absolutely mental. Despite being quite quiet and often in the background, he’s clearly got a big affiliation with the club. Great squad player to have around.

    Martyn waghorn interview , talks about his dislike for adi and robins

    He like, sounds like, he had a telling off like, took it badly, like, recognised his career was on the decline, and is looking for blame, like. I am sure there is more to it, however AV telling him to shut up isn’t a nice experience I’m sure, but two sides. Not clear what is actual issue with...

    Do we know if there’s a fan zone for Saturday? Apologies if it’s already in the thread, not had a chance to read it today.

    Simms is just so awkward and I love it. The weird chicken celebration followed by having zero idea how to interact with the fans, before looking incredibly uncomfortable when they grab him to celebrate!

    What a time to be a Cov fan. Remember those St Andrews years, that L1 relegation season and the L2 redemption. Means even more if you do. CTID.

    Not read any previous messages yet as been having to watch on my phone. But what the hell is this formation. And this co-commentator is bell.

    Match Thread Middlesbrough - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 25th Nov

    My selfish concern tomorrow is watching the whole game. In London for the day and last trains home are earlier than usual, and I can’t go pre game as I don’t finish in time so I’d miss KO. So it could be a watching the last 10 mins while running to the train situation or if it’s too tense, I...

    Simms and Assante

    The issue with Simms is his usual gaff or two overshadow everything else, especially if you’re looking for reasons to criticise him. He held the ball up well yesterday and his off the ball movement is always good. His performance and goal have hopefully given him a confidence boost too. Be...

    Got a massive telling off from my partner when that 3rd went in. The bar we in isn’t a football one at all but persuaded them to put it on when I came in last night. Celebrated very, very loudly! Not intentional, just instinct! Love this team.

    It’s a pen - he literally pulls his shirt nearly off. Ref has been wank. Briliant headed from Eccles but he’s still limiting us at 10. MVE having one of those ‘all over the place’ games.
