    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town Match Thread - Monday 29th Dec

    I'm starting to get nervous about this one already. It's not a "must win" but I really hope we don't lose. I'm going 1-0 or 2-1 to us but I really hope they don't score first. If they do, I reckon either 1-0 to them or 1-1. To be honest, a draw would be decent enough for us especially if...

    Stadium update

    We should have gone with stone or wattle and daub, with thatched roofs for the stands 👍

    Half term report

    Obviously he would if he went to West Ham. I think he will stay for the time being because it will be better for his CV to take us up than to be at the helm when West Ham go down.

    Half term report

    He's currently fourth favourite for the West Ham job when Nuno gets the boot, which is thought to be imminent. I think Frank will stay with us at least until the end of this season.

    Does your wife/partner like football?

    My wife used to love football but for some reason she has really gone off it this year. It could be related to the fact that she is a Wolves supporter! 😆

    10 more wins does it

    It won't be nearly done, not with half of the season to go, but it most certainly will be another big step in the right direction 👍

    Half term report

    We clearly have an excellent chance of clinching one of the two automatic spots but there's a long way to go yet. A dip in form for us, coupled with an upturn for a couple of our rivals, could derail us as could other clubs doing better in the January window or serious injuries to a couple of...

    Rudoni

    He’s fine, just not at his brilliant best. We need to give him a few more games before we judge him.

    Our slowest ever player

    I remember Ken Keyworth being slow for a forward.

    For those that remember 1967

    I was 11 at the start of that season, turning 12 in February. I always had the eternal optimism of youth that we would get promotion but we certainly weren’t running away with things. Our performances seemed to get better as the season went on. I well remember the famous victory against Wolves...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I think this went cold in November. The club and the player’s agent have been hawking him around to try and get the most money for him. That is their right but we can’t compete financially with the Premiership clubs such as Bournemouth who are reportedly after him.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town Match Thread - Monday 29th Dec

    I would like to see pretty much the same team as started against Swansea but (a) with Thomas in for Wolfenden if he's fit and (b) possibly Haji in for Simms. I accept that, as others have said, Saka isn't on top form at the moment, so what about KKH in his place? He can play RWB, so why not RW...

    If we win this we are up to 51 points. Safety is almost assured 😊

    More good play from EMC. He's the MOM so far.

    Ephron yet again showing that he has a good eye for goal 😊

    How much will we spend in the summer?

    Absolutely 👍 I feel that, under Doug King and Frank Lampard, the club is in better hands than it has been since - for those old enough to remember - the days of Derek Robins and Jimmy Hill. There is a real buzz about the place, just as there was back then. 😊

    cricket 2025

    The team is woefully underprepared for this series and - as I said to the wife yesterday - they shouldn't be picking Bethell, given that he has barely played any first class cricket this year. To expect a young player, with that lack of experience and game time, in a downcast and beaten side, to...

    Need support lads

    Hi, just checking in to see how you are doing @Joe King. I hope you have managed to have a nice Christmas Day. A good win tomorrow against Swansea will doubtless help to lift your spirits a bit. 🤞 🙏

    How much will we spend in the summer?

    On the basis that we have just valued Haji Wright at £200 million I think we will need to spend at least eleventy billion if we are to stay up. I suspect we will spend less than this.
