    OH WHAT A GLORIOUS MORNING

    Shows it’s not accident or good luck.

    Dear Doug....

    Doug took his time and looks like he’s made the right decision. I assume he was also explaining his vision and plans to Lampard because Frank could surely have gone elsewhere and chose us. Hopefully that means he is committed to giving a good go at the project here.

    Matty grimes

    He is always available for the ball and so careful with it. The other players must really love having him in the team.

    Sheff Wed ratings

    Some players may have stood out individually but that was an epic team performance. The effort put into chasing down the ball and keeping that clean sheet was just incredible. I include all the substitutes in that. I think I saw Torp on his feet celebrating Saka’s goal like he’d scored himself...

    Without Rudoni and emc

    I think with high energy pressing game we play, there is a case for earlier substitutions to keep those levels high and effective, and the players ready to go again in what can be just days. We need value substitutes more. Not as players who didn’t make the first team but as the players who come...

    Match Thread Millwall FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 1st Oct

    Just wow… four goals away from home, a clean sheet, arguably not at our very best and missing our best player. Things are shaping up very, very nicely. Absolutely loving being a City fan at the moment

    Post match fans zone

    I just love all these signs that we are now a well owned and well run club. Every week it feels like something is happening for the better whether it be new scanners at the turnstiles, cheap pints, big concerts in the bowl for the summer, bars staying open after the game with entertainment. It’s...

    Timewasting

    If they time waste at a throw in, just reverse the decision and give the other team the throw in. Just helping with the feigning of injury though and determined time wasters will just switch to that. Send a signal though

    Item 25/26 Coventry Kit

    They aren’t in stock though? It clearly says ‘Please note that all outstanding pre-order purchases will be prioritised as soon as stock becomes available.’ I take that to read a) not in stock to despatch immediately and b) my order will be fulfilled (and quite right too) after people - unknown...

    Match Thread Leicester City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Sep

    I enjoyed that game. Credit to both teams, especially us away from home, for playing to win the game. Such a contrast to that embarrassment from Norwich last Saturday. I don’t think I saw any time wasting or feigning injury or gamesmanship. If there was, I must have missed it from being so...

    Item 25/26 Coventry Kit

    After seeing one at an early match I B decided I wanted an adult home goalkeeper’s shirt. I was prepared to pay the full price because I like it so much but there’s no indication when they will be back in stock. It’s got to the stage now where I’ll probably wait and see if they come back in and...

    Match Thread Millwall - Coventry City [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 26th Aug

    It’s not a disaster going out of this cup, although Doug would have loved a good draw in the next round and a bonus pay day I’m sure. The disappointment is the failure of most of non first players to make any real impact. Simms, Bidwell and Allen all poor. Rudoni, Wright and Torp different...

    Stadium update

    I’ve just shed a few tears reading that. Hats off to Doug. I’ll say thank you by starting to buy a few drinks and stuff now the income will be going to the club. How must it feel to be Doug? King of Coventry!

    Clive Eakin on CWR

    There's a definite whiff of misogyny in many of these comments. Surely gender doesn't matter and it's competence in your job that counts? Who of us is fully competent on day 1 in a new job, or not affected by nerves, especially with thousands of people listening and ready to criticise? Why...

    RIP matt jones

    Rest in peace Matt. So sad. Please reach out if you are struggling. It definitely helps. I went to a bereavement group a few years ago. Everyone was so welcoming and it really helped me at the time. I often look back and think how glad I am I that I walked through the door that evening

    Doug , could you help with the PA system

    I thought it was truly awful last night. Could only make out the odd word of what was said in Block 16. A serious issue if you needed to hear some instructions rather than who the the subs were. It’s felt better recently, maybe the half-emptiness affected the acoustics, but it shouldn’t be how...

    New stadium

    A city centre location would be great though. Great for pubs, shops, hotels, public transport. Could have a real regeneration effect. Won’t happen though. The Butts is fundamentally unsuitable with what is around it

    Video GETTING TO KNOW Joe Edwards | City’s Assistant on Coventry City, Coaching, Frank Lampard & Chelsea.

    That was a great interview. Clearly an excellent coach who has a really positive relationship with the players. It’s all looking so professional and promising. Can’t believe where we are now compared to just a few years ago.

    season ticket sales

    In terms of revenue on matchdays, I am probably one of many who doesn't spend anything. People will have various reasons for this including cost, having enough time, not being willing to queue, not like the offer etc. I think this is an area Doug and the retail staff could look at - what...
