    Tonight will be a real test of character after the last home game. I’m hoping they don’t let us down and that includes MR with selection and tactics. I’m missing my (fairly important) game tonight for this, I really hope it’s worth it. 2-0, Bimaou x2.

    Probably, but that still means 1/4 midfielders has any creativity. And even that is hit and miss. I’d stick with the same team. We’re at home and need to win, surely attack is the best way to go. However, we know Robins fears attacking so I doubt it.

    Haha true. Although I wouldn’t put it past L2 refs based on this season.

    The worry with dropping Bayliss is the immediate lack of creativity. Especially if he drops back to 4-4-4-2 with Shipley, Kelly, Doyle, ??.

    Actual Carl Baker Day - It has happened!

    Don’t understand the hate for Baker. He didn’t consistently set the world alight, but he had the ability to change games. Still did last season. As had been said before, if he was fit would anyone actually prefer Vincenti/Barratt/DKE over him? Granted he isn’t fit, but if he comes back and...

    I fucking hate that I support Coventry. The whole team can absolutely sod off.

    Wouldn’t have been my selection; it’s a negative team. We will have zero creativity in the middle, zero on the left wing and a creative centre mid playing on the right. It’s also harsh on Reid who was one of few players to come out of Monday with any credibility. I agree with Davies, but...

    Fairly big queues outside on the cash turnstiles. You’d be frustrated if you were in them.

    I’m feeing excited and confident, which is a weird feeling being a Coventry fan. I’d also put Reid in and go all out attack. 3-0, JCH, McNulty, Bayliss. Let’s hope the memories of a year ago inspire us....

    I’ve always thought Nouble was a tosser. He was lazy with a massive chip on his shoulder (God knows why). I hope it gives our players extra incentive, especially those who were here when he was. Although off the top of my head I’m not sure who would have been, maybe Burge, Willis and the...

    As with the majority of teams in this division, we have a stronger squad and starting XI,yet despite this, we have still managed to lose to too many poor sides. However, at this stage of the season motivation should not be an issue, while confidence should be sky high. Let’s hope we play to...

    Fantastic second goal. I’d like to see Reid now to continue to stretch them. Their 27 could be a good buy in the summer.

    As before, JCH, Bayliss and McNulty all look a ohehr level. Grimmer and Doyle doing their roles well enough too.

    Nobody is being negative, just calling it as it is. It’s not exactly good so far is it. I still think we’ll win, we are just poor at the minute.

    Bayliss and JCH another level so far. McNulty gets an honourable mention. Everyone else is bang average.

    Pitch is absolutely terrible. We started quite well and actually played football, but we’ve reverted to type already. They are having way too much of the ball. Hopefully we pick up again. We need to.

    Robins has learned Doyle/Kelly offer nothing offensively, but still hasn’t clocked onto the awful kick off routine yet.

    If McSheffrey scores and any home fans applaud they should be immediately removed. Still can’t believe that actually happened.

    I’m actually really looking forward to tomorrow. Especially as I’ve had to miss the last few for various reasons. I am feeling confident re play offs and if we keep winning then the autos may well be a possibility. It would be great for us to win convincingly for a change; especially with...
