Simple fact had that tackle been made on the edge of the box it would have been given as free-kick but we see time and again inside the penalty area they are not given, do they equal out over a season ? not sure
He was still storming about after the penalty claim incident so hopefully nothing serious looks to be a swelling on his shin which could be bloody sore but nothing more.
I thought he showed his worth yesterday not the best first half a bit wasteful I thought even could have done better in Blackburn’s opening goal but second half I thought he was excellent and that’s the sign of a good player upping his game in times of need.
I like Sheaf but the OP who is the better pairing and that’s a fully fit Kelly and Hamer and imo the least effective Kelly & Sheaf look at yesterday. But let’s take into account Blackburn’s Joe Rothwell what a good player he is what an addition he would be in our midfield.
Sad news, worked for many years at Massey Ferguson alongside a number of ex City players, Lol Harvey, Alf Wood, Ernie Machin, Reg Matthews and Ronnie Farmer, a proper nice down to earth chap. RIP mate.
Do fans remember our FA Cup semi-final v Leeds when tv coverage had to be later than the live game something to do with the Sunday Obserance Act. So there was this bazaar situation of the fans at the game knowing we were off to Wembley while many here at Cov didn’t.

Hyam is a very good player and has been since he came into the team, inevitably at times defenders make mistakes that result in a goal just as strikers miss sitters. Last season there was an anti Hyam campaign on here by some of our “experts”who are quieter now, I’m sure they will stir again...
The Wolves away game must have been one of the largest away supports for a Sky Blue league game ever that South Bank was a massive terrace and when we scored the whole end erupted. Birmingham away was large too the Kop terrace was end to end Cov had to be 20k minimum for that.
Was at that Wolves match at Molyneaux I’m sure we were 1-0 up and Wolves absolutely battered us Wagstaff equalised about 20 minutes from the end but John Key broke away to make it 2-1 massively against the run of play then he scored again. The game we were 1-0 down and came back to win was the...
Went to Bolton when we won 1-0 with a last ditch penalty at Burnden Park was the coldest day I remember watching a football match getting to the car and the car heater was like heaven.
