    I suppose if he left we could go back in for van Nistelrooy. 😜

    Former players day

    I took my dad to the Mahou lounge for his 80th birthday (home game vs Swansea). John Williams as the FPA guest of honour. He was a lovely, lovely bloke and was very kind to my dad. He admitted that his divided loyalties between Swansea and Cov meant he was hoping for a draw - which I understood...

    Match Thread Who should play on Wednesday poll

    Yesterday’s first goal was probably worse than the second. The main error was From Grimes who gave the ball away in precisely the manner and in exactly the place that we bought him to never give the ball away. That said Collins rushed miles off his line far too readily for *both* of the goals...

    Lampard red card

    Especially when the ref had been bullied by The Bigger Boys from Burnley for 90+ minutes.

    PLEASE FRANK

    Isn’t it weird that it only took us eight days to find a team to dislike more than Sheffield United?

    Worst ever referee?

    Zain Flemming.

    Worst ever referee?

    Sam Parkin on Sky declared that it wasn’t even a foul - just merely the sort of block that happens for 90 minutes all over the pitch ! 😮

    Worst ever referee?

    The ref was shocking but it wasn’t a corner. Simms never appealed for a corner and none of our team thought it was a corner until the Lino erroneously gave one.

    Summer Transfer Window

    They’d give Leon Best and Simon Charlton a run for their money though.

    Coventry City 101 Greatest Goals

    In the late 1987 the BBC brought out this video - 101 Greatest goals on MotD. I was bought it for Christmas. It finishes with just one goal from the 1987 FA Cup final… Clive Allen’s opener!

    Eccles Injured for rest of the season

    Pretty certain that Eccles is the only player to have featured as a starter or as a used sub in every single one of the games since Lampard became manager.

    Anyone see the punch ?

    You can see it here. Took me a few rewinds to realise where to look.

    Video FULL PRESS CONFERENCE | Haji Wright and Frank Lampard look ahead to Coventry City vs Sunderland 🎙️

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s on the bench. We have a habit of not playing the player we put up for the press conference and playing EMC wide left seems integral to Lampard’s preferred system (esp without Rudoni).

    Funniest moment yesterday

    The lonely bloke in Block 28 who decided to air it on International Women’s Day seemed lovely. Lati and Rudi belong to the same camp, there’s some obvious and fairly original chants that could be used but we’ve preferred to adapt far inferior ones just because…
