The turning point wasn't the Bristol City game, it was the game before that (QPR)

The problem is he just doesn't smile enough. It's a fine line though, if he overdoes it he could end up like Sheaf

Some of the older posters will remember the game v Wolves in 1967, when we won promotion to the old first division. https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/day-1967-coventry-city-win-9142043

They needed points to be sure of safety before tonight's result, plus I doubt they will find our defence as accommodating

That would mean Derby getting 4 points from Birmingham (H) and Swansea (A) as well as beating Sheff W, in which case Sheff W couldn't catch us. Sheff W can only equal our current points by winning all their remaining games (including Derby)

I think we will be mathematically safe by 5pm on Saturday. 4 points from Stoke and Preston who are in mid table and will hopefully not be too bothered, meanwhile Derby host Birmingham who still need points to ensure safety. Derby are the lowest scorers in the Championship and only Southend...

Derby are bottom of the form table for the last 6, 8, 10, & 12 games.

If Rotherham get anything tomorrow night thay could have a chance of sending Derby down, Their other home game is against Blackburn. Their away games against Barnsley and Brentford look tough but they could pick up a couple of points from their games at Luton / Cardiff.

Yes I'm afraid you are

There have been quite a few posts about our lack of goals over the season, and comments like where's the next goal coming from? Six teams have scored fewer goals than us, Luton (36), Forest (34), Birmingham (32), Derby (31), Sheff W (35) and Wycombe (32) Further to that Millwall, Bristol C...

It's strange how MR has turned our late season form on its head, in L2 a late spurt into the playoffs and then the glorious semi and final games. Last season our results from Christmas onwards were phenomenal, and now this season's late run (hopefully it continues)

Yes, particularly it's been said that Rotherham are a much better team than us by some 😂. I could never understand this, and I doubt they have had the amount of long term injuries to key players we have had.

I would prefer them both to lose and us to win

48 points will probably be enough going on the current form of the teams below us, but I will feel more confident next week end depending on the results between now and then. I think we will get well above 50 points anyway.

MR's tactics, play the worst formation and team selection possible until the 40th game and then bring on plan A and the A team. It fools the opposition every time. Seriously though, MR has a track record of finishing the season strongly with us.

If we stay in the championship, and being back at the Ricoh, this would be a good time for Susu to sell.. maybe?

Only 5 games left Because of our goal difference I wouldn't be certain 50 points is enough at this stage, 51 should be OK. If we play like last night we should comfortably pick up 4 or 5 points from our home games, and now we have found how to win away I wouldn't be surprised to see an away win...

Yes, that's how I see it. We won't be relegated by losing tonight, and we won't be safe if we win. There are still 15 points to be had after tonight's game, and only 2 opponents with anything other than self respect to play for.

or a taxi

Derby are on 43 points with 5 games to go so could get 58 points We are on 42 points with 6 games to go, so can get 60 points Rotherham are on 36 points with 9 games left so can get 60 points if we beat them or 63 if they beat us Huddersfield are on 44 points with 6 games to go so could get 62...
