    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    I had same in summer from a Plymouth and a Chelsea fan. the Chelsea fan was even impressed when I said I was at the game. It’s the best Cov football match I’ve ever been to I think. Hopefully it won’t be like that forever.

    Visiting Teams To The CBS

    I remember from Robins first time in charge that he specifically requested the away dressing either furnished or painted brown so it feels oppressive, rather than our nice one.

    I remember a few years ago he was doing punditry at the Ricoh and had to walk around from near the dugouts to walk up the back where the cameras are and he got warm applause. same at Wembley I think at the playoff final. i admit I did go along with it on the away days at villa park and sang the...

    Match Thread Middlesbrough - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 2nd Nov

    Needs to be frozen at the point wright actually plays the ball, but these are the sort of offsides that I think are humanly impossible for a linesman to get right either way - they can’t possibly see when the ball is played then look across the line to see. fine with VAR as they’d always check...

    Lionesses at the CBS?

    I’m all for the girls/women’s game but you make a fair point - you really notice the difference when you see Mary Earps (or any WSL team) keeper stood in the goal compared to the men’s keepers. They look so small in them.

    Ball boys/girls

    Jesus Christ - so we’re criticising 14 year old kids now who aren’t running to retrieve a ball when they don’t need to cos the players have to use one of 15 from a cone round the side of the pitch. I guess seeing as we won on Saturday we’ve got to have something to moan about.

    Ball boys/girls

    You assume correctly. And put the balls back on the cones when one has been taken. They’re doing what they’re told.

    Dovin

    Also that angle it almost looks like the spin and flight/direction of the ball in the air changes, in that it was going to Dovins right then straightened up slightly. but I’m maybe being too kind, if he’d have stood his ground it’s an easy save. But then I’ve never been an under-21...

    Dovin

    I think the kid is a good keeper, certainly a good shot stopper, and I think his commanding of his area is improving quickly. but one area that does concern me a bit, and a couple of my friends, is his kicking, particularly longer balls. They don’t seem to have the right penetration or...

    Bring back ADI

    And the start of last season, and the season before that….. rose tinted glasses I think. Not saying it hasn’t had some impact, but can’t ignore he was here when we had crap starts/straight defeats before. and the playoff final season we had Viktor and gus, and three defenders on loan from prem...

    The “too many cooks” theory

    Yep, exactly. It’s a total bollocks theory that we’ve got too many. I’m sick of all the so-called experts and ‘voices of the fans’ going on about it. I just feel that the performance director is an easy target cos she’s female, and all the fans who go on about how the players must be confused...

    The “too many cooks” theory

    Well that will please all the ‘we’ve got too many staff’ brigade - yet another one…… but as it’s an “assistant manager” then they will be fine about it…

    Callum O'Hare

    I think also attitude - for many, me included, I feel like O’Hare’s form and commitment waned once January was over, with the only exceptions being the Wolves and Man Utd games. couldn’t say that about Vik or gus - they played when injured and got us through. Fair play. Although Hamer going to...

    Things that annoy you

    This must have been said on here before (and if not why not?) but people, particularly F1 drivers and anyone trying to sell anything, saying ‘super’ before anything… They’re super comfy, I’m super happy, it was super exciting…. I know the use of the word super is technically correct and being...

    Coaching Restructure

    Just for comparison/debate, given they are our next opponents, this is Blackburn’s squad photo. awful lot of staff on there, like us. On their website the first team coaching staff - in terms of structure/numbers almost identical. Eustace has 2 x assistants. and apart from Eustace and Rudy...

    What’s with the trend of ….

    See this on Twitter too - I am firmly in the ‘sit in the seat you’ve got a ticket for bracket’. No issues then with anyone. what’s that you can’t stand next to your mate for an hour and a half? Diddums. I really don’t get the ‘stand/sit where the fuck you want’ attitude. But as some have...
