Looks nervous to me. Always harder when you’re expected to win a game I suppose.

Absolutely. Noted in another thread how parachutes have really broken football.

I watched their home game to United on TV and couldn’t believe how poor the atmosphere was. I guess they were resigned to their fate a long time ago. Would hate us to go through that!

Or Brad Collins?

Now we really are talking exceptions.

No it’s not. It’s saying the ambition to become a yo-yo club is a a bad one. People almost accept it as a given to go down because of the financial inequity. Without parachute payments things would be worst for the premier league, but not the championship to which I was mainly concerned about.

With the exception of Luton, you are talking quite far back. It’s been quite noticeable that it’s become a harder cycle to break in recent years.

Obvious statement, but clubs now aiming to become parachute clubs is a sign of sport that has got it wrong.

I was thinking the same. Of course they keep clean sheets if refs fall for those tricks

Everything about this performance has been criminally naive

Won’t get back into this now. We’ve absolutely played into their hands. All our own fault.

The worst part was Collins not leathering it. It’s not like the confusion actually cost us. It was Collins losing the ball.

I’m actually angry at the management for picking him more than Collins

Utterly baffling decision to bring him in

Oh yes! That was his last game!

Think we didn’t we again in the league until Dublin left?

I guess a few played in the World Cup 98 final against Brazil in France? Labourf and Desailly off the top of my head?

My first ever game as a Coventry City supporter. Had got into football as a six year old at the 98 World Cup. Asked my dad what happens outside of world cups and he told me Coventry was the team we supported. Looking back it was a fantastic result against a quality team, although I didn’t go...
