    20 years on

    I grew up in Mowbray Street and loved living near the ground - it's why I became a City supporter really. Some of my earliest memories are all the crowds going past. I wanted to go where they were going. I sat and stood on every bit of Highfield Road at one time I think, before I got my season...

    Frank Lampard in Bedworth

    I think you’re right. We are lucky to have him representing us. He seems a great balance of passion with reason, modern and forward thinking but with a footballing history himself that is the equal of anyone’s. I really hope he can achieve his ambitions with us and we keep him. Well done to Doug...

    Player Ratings

    Collins - 3 Distribution is good but at fault for the goals. No escape from that as a goalkeeper. MVE - 4. Not used to being challenged, especially with pace, as Bundu did, and he no answer to it. Lati- 4 Out muscled and out fought Kitching- 5 Thought he did okay. Seemed up for competing...

    Match Thread Plymouth Argyle - Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 21st Apr

    We just seem so weak in the 1:1 contests with their players and when we’re have the ball, it’s not moving forward fast enough. Their defenders and goalie have had a pretty easy ride most of the time. We haven’t really put them under any pressure, certainly any consistent pressure. We don’t...

    CBS Arena

    I would probably buy food and drink if the club owned the CBS, especially if they improved the offer a bit. A decent coffee would probably tempt me most games.

    Match Thread Hull City - Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 14th Apr

    It feels like a loss but it isn’t. It’s still in our hands, just immensely frustrating that we lacked the quality to put away one of those great chances. The were so many it felt like. It makes the West Brom game an even more stressful watch now. Gawd, we don’t like to take the easy path do we?

    Preparation for WBA

    This is what having performance directors, nutritionists, and sleep consultants should come into its own? Maximising rest, recovery and performance in these intense periods. We’re starting to have all that at the club and it’s surely a good thing. The professional way to run things in sport...

    Tonight

    That’s up there in a lifetime of best moments watching City. T here must be 25,000 + hangovers this morning. I feel like I’ve got one and I wasn’t drinking 🤣. Just buzzing too much to sleep

    Eight Years Ago

    I'll never forget the sheer excitement of that day, and the moment at the Ricoh when I realised I would actually be supporting City at Wembley. That was pretty special too. Never dreamt there would be more great moments and Wembley days so soon. I think that day was key in our turnaround. The...

    Match Thread Sheffield United - Coventry City Match Thread - Friday 28th Mar

    Watching on TV, I thought we controlled the game in many ways, but they were far more incisive in the final third and they had Hamer’s quality to score that peach of a free kick and give them the lead. Bobby Thomas shouldn’t have committed the foul knowing what Hamer can do from there. Milan...

    Looking forward to tonight is affecting my concentration today. Cannot wait. I think I might insist everyone in the house sings WLADITT just before kick-off!

    Video Coventry City v Sunderland Highlights

    It would be interesting to know how the non-physical support the players get these days is helping to improve their performance. Heard an interesting piece on the BBC about how a sleep coach had helped Brentford captain Christian Norgaard. It’s one thing being back to physical fitness isn’t it...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Sunderland Match Thread - Saturday 15th Mar

    What a game and what a performance. An epic atmosphere too. Don’t think I stopped singing and the place was really bouncing at times. It must have driven the players on. I am currently eating a small mountain of humble pie on Haji. I thought he looked miles off being fit on Tuesday but Lampard...

    Match Thread Derby County - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Mar

    A really poor performance all round, with some individual shockers from Bidwell and Wright. The few bright sparks, like Sakamoto’s play at times and JDS after he came on, were quickly snuffed out by the poor quality everywhere else

    Loyalty Point Bands

    I'm on 1140 points - that's season tickets, most home cup games, Wembley games, and the Wolves FA Cup quarter final last year. Used to go to most away games but can't any longer. I really enjoy being able to watch away games - the Now TV subscription has turned out to be better value than I...

    We live and die in these towns

    After Wembley, when the song was played in full and I only knew the words to the chorus, I learned them for next time. It was great to carry on to singing the second verse yesterday - it’s the first time I’d done it. I read the message above about holding scarves up and maybe we should do that...

    Match Thread Home game atmosphere

    There are many reasons why people leave a few minutes early. I’m one of them after 30+ years of staying to applaud the players, win, lose or draw. I heard the goal go in and celebrated like I was inside. All that matters to me is we won. Feeling so positive about the last part of the season - I...
