Mark Robins. He set out to build not just a team, but a squad. Davies and Hyam being 2 players that, whenever they have played, have not looked out of depth - despite being brought in as role players or backup options. He had an unwavering belief in McNulty, when the typical boo-boys said he...

There’s a constant hysteria within our supporters about selling players. I think things are taking a turn for the better. All our key player, fit and injured, are under contract, and the clubs finances appear to be in a better place than in the L1 years. The only player to worry about is...

I can get myself to next 4 home games. Hopefully can do Cheltenham away too. Taking my little brother too, and hopefully he gets a taste for it witnessing promotion this season! I’m excited, I can’t really ever recall being this excited in my time as a Coventry City fan.

On Bayliss, he’s shown glimpses that he’s be a decent wide player, a quick example is his assist for Biamou v MK Dons. So, I imagine MR’a train of thought was to play the best players you have available. He tried Bayliss on the wing for, what? 3-5 games? Right wing has been a problem for the 15...

I had a rugby game myself, so looked at the match thread as soon as I got settled... The vibes you got was that we’d been beaten or held to a draw. As a collective, we’re such a negative bunch of fans. Taking time to moan about Burge or Haynes in a game we won 4-0 in, instead of enjoying the...

I’ve only seen the highlights, but it looked like we absolutely dominated. JCH looked really, really good and McNulty’s goals were superb. Finally glad to see we scored 2 goals from set-pieces — something I feel has held us back this year, so long may it continue.

If Chesterfield win or hold Notts County to a draw tomorrow, it’ll be the perfect weekend for us. We also have a game in hand on Wycombe! Ideally, I want a draw, but I wouldn’t mind a Notts win because they play Accrington on the Easter Monday - hopefully killing the momentum they’d get before...

You live in a weird world. So when we do well as a team, the players deserve credit and MR doesn’t, but when we did badly, it’s MR’s fault? Strange. I think it was worth trying Bayliss on the wing with Kelly and Doyle in the middle. That CM partnership was a large contributor to our defence...

I’m also glad they and Lincoln messed up too. We’re only 2pts behind Exeter, but my worry was that one slip up would see us fall out the playoff spots, so it’s good to build an insurance policy. I could be totally wrong, but I think both Swindon and Mansfield will miss out on playoffs and...

When we’re 6pts off 3rd with a game in hand? We’re currently in the middle of a hot streak too. The teams around us have to play one another so if we keep our form up, we’ll definitely make up points on 3rd. I say this, whilst I’m ‘predicting’ that we’ll finish 4th. A 3rd place finish is...

I think results have been going our way for a good 2-3 weeks now. Insane luck. In our back and forths over the last fortnight, I expected the likes of Mansfield and Wycombe to slip up against each other. Today, Port Vale, without a win in 13, nick a point away at Wycombe and Mansfield lose 2-0...

The team should remain unchanged, injuries permitting. Really hope we turn a corner and smash someone 3 or 4-0.

I’m going to consistent and say ‘it’s only 5 games’ we can’t really tell. One thing is for sure, he clearly offers a potent attacking threat and offers another outlet other than McNulty. Something we’ve missed since Jones, Nazon and Andreu got injured or left the club. Our biggest lost this...

JCH has made about 6 starts, compared to Biamou’s 20-30. How you think you can actually make the statement ‘we play better with Biamou’ with the confidence you have, is beyond me. Forget the amount of shots or whatever we’ve had in Biamou’s last 4 games, here’s some colder facts: Biamou’s last...

Maybe he did turn a corner, maybe not. But one thing is certain, JCH got his chance vs Brighton, a premier league side, and he took it ruthlessly, hitting the woodwork twice and scoring with a class finish. Now he’s got 4 in 9 games (yes I’m crediting the Crewe goal). I’m not hating on Biamou...

I agree with about 80% of this post, however: You can blame Robins’ tactics for Biamou’s lack of chances, but that doesn’t change the fact that Biamou has missed clear-cut chances. I think Biamou is a decent striker, but he doesn’t fashion chances for himself, like McNulty or JCH and he wasn’t...

Tbf, I wasn’t ecstatic when we appointed him in the first place. However, given the context of our league position, and his previous job history, I was optimistic and thought it was a good appointment. It was criminal we let either Evans and Cotterill through our grasps.

The pertinent point was about our tactics. Without a doubt, wherever we end up, there will be a massive ‘what if?’ The reason being is that we lost or drew far too many games against teams you’d consider ‘weak’ in the division, losses to; FGR x2, Yeovil, Morecambe, Port Vale, Cambridge...

That’s pretty haunting.

I think this more a Coventry City fan club tbh with you.
