    Match Thread Coventry City - Watford FC Match Thread - Saturday 25th Oct

    What a strange game. It felt like a little complacency set in there for a while, but a win is win, another 3 points on the board is all that matters. Last night shows going 2-0 up doesn't mean anything, we aren't going to bowl teams over every week, but again we got the job done. To do it...

    Hopefully this is the case. Or at least have another target set up and ready to make a move early on.

    Didn't he go on loan though? Unless there is a recall option and we plan to make an offer to buy.

    A couple of weeks back he said there had already been agent talks about a winger. Nothing else since then.

    I think when Rudoni comes back, his minutes will be managed anyway, due to the length of time out and the injury itself. It's a nice problem to have though for once. BTA can't be dropped with the form he is so i am guessing he will revert to one of the wings and either Tats or EMC will make...

    Great result at a difficult place to go. Shame about the clean sheet but will take a win there over that all day long. Excellent performances from BTA and Simms. Felt we lost our shape a little after JDS went off. Don't want to be critical though as that was a really good performance. What a team.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Blackburn Rovers Match Thread - Saturday 18th Oct

    Tough game yesterday, Blackburn definitely came with a game plan. They stopped us being able to engage the crowd which i'm sure their manager would have wanted. They man marked Grimes out of the game in the first half. Without him being able to come deep to collect and control, we were forced to...

    Match Thread Portsmouth FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Oct

    I don't think last seasons result here will affect them, but i hope they use it to go into this one wanting nothing less than a win. That needs to be our mindset now going forward, if we want to be a top team. So far this season, it seems as though that's exactly what is on their minds, the...

    Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 4th Oct

    Brilliant to be going into the international break in this position. A chance to get players rested and recovered from injuries. The switch of play and movement from everyone involved in that 4th goal was so good. What a finish from Tats who i thought had a good game. What i love about us is...

    Yeah 100% leant into it, think the ref felt sorry for them.

    Slightly out of rhythm, to be expected with a few tired legs out there but who cares. Sign of a good team if you can grind out these results when not playing at your very best. Would love to see KKH against these, they are giving us so much space out wide. I'll take that offside goal after...

    Simms and Assante

    Yeah exactly this! Said a few times on here but all of our strikers last season struggled in that loan role due to the lack of direct play, constant checking back and playing sideways. The direct play this season has been a welcome sight, really enjoying watching us at the moment. Add in the...

    Simms and Assante

    Yeah hopefully they're on top of things and we'll see a couple come in for that important push second half of the season. It's a shame to see some already picking up knocks but always to be expected, especially with the intensity we now seem to playing with. The way i try to look at it is, we...

    Simms and Assante

    Yeah, i've just seen Lampard again has commented on the depth, so i'm guessing they have had their chats and he will have made it clear what he needs. Hopefully DK will do whatever needs to be done, it's reasonable to say he has given him the backing so far, okay a couple of moves haven't made...

    Simms and Assante

    Yeah totally agree, i guess a lot will ride on Rudoni, but also on where we are in the league. If we are still up there and pushing, you would hope that would encourage what needs to be done. I think DK knows what we need and he will want to see us pushing for promotion just as much as we do...

    Hopefully that's something they can get sorted, i don't know anything about how close that is.

    Yeah i thought i'd heard that somewhere.

    Simms and Assante

    Did Rak-Sakyi end up going on loan somewhere? Haven't heard anything about the severity of Rudi's shoulder injury, only that he was playing with it heavily strapped every game. We were saying last game that it seems as though he may go down a similar road to Bellingham who ended up having to...

    Simms and Assante

    I asked him when we played Brum, he said they had already had agent contact about a winger, no other whispers yet.
