    Interesting take on the reality of the promised land

    When we go up.. At best we'll be a comfortable lower mid table team (like a Palace) for at least 6-10 years, with the odd flirtation with Europe, and a cup run or 2. At worst we'll do a Sheff Utd and be relegated by Christmas. Or we become a yo-yo club like Norwich, West Brom & Fulham.

    Ellis Simms

    Strong, quick and a cool finisher. He'll play for England within 3 years I reckon.

    Luis Binks

    That passion, from a player whose probably not played as much as he expected / wanted this season. I think he's signing for us in the summer. Brilliant man-management from Robins

    He spoke really well. Gave us a lot of respect. Won’t bash him anymore. Like an old school sportsmanship you rarely see in football anymore

    Luis Binks

    Brilliant today when he came on. Need to sign him up in the summer. Would be a good battle between him and Kitching for the shirt next season

    Fábio Tavares

    Still think he will be a great player for us. He’s a. CF though. With Sakamoto and Mason Clark available next season, he needs to be challenging Simms and the Godden replacement for that role. Robins and Adi obviously rate the lad.

    Fábio Tavares

    Yep, thought Dasilva was excellent today. He’s a good option at LB/LWB when chasing a game. A valuable squad player in other words.

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    The arrogance of Man U throughout the match. For an hour we let them stroll around with f*cking Harry McGuire trying to be the playmaker. Then something clicked. proud of the boys today. Can’t help but feel if Palmer had been playing we win that match. All I wanted was us to run them close. We...

    Wembley team last time

    Thomas & Kitching both better than McNally in my opinion. They are still a little naive, but are pure defenders. McNally could get bullied and his distribution wasn't great. Doyle was a fine player, but Man City aren't ready to sell, so he was never going to be a long term target. MVE miles...

    United v Cov Predictions

    I know. Feel sorry for Dasilva. He was decent at LWB earlier in the season, but is not a LB, or LWF, and that's where he's been played for the last 4 months. His lack of adaptability is an issue. Eccles, MVE, Lati & Bidwell can all play in different positions, and at a reasonable standard

    United v Cov Predictions

    If he plays MVE at right back, with Eccles & Sheaf in midfield then I’m more confident. With Palmer out though, we surely won’t play 4-2-1-3, unless he throws Tavares in. . I think he’ll play it safe, possibly Da Silva at LM , Lati RB, MVE at RM, with O’Hare behind Simms as the lone striker.

    We can't be out fought in this game, as Blues will clearly be well up for it, and will start with intensity and fight you would think 2-1 to The Sky Blues, but it won't be pretty.

    Match Thread Southampton - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 9th Apr

    If as expected Soton will have the majority of the possession, and our game will be based on quick counter attacks, then Lati could be useful at DM. Wouldn't surprise me to see MVE pushed forward, with Lati in at RB.

    Kitching has been a fantastic signing. Tough CB with a nasty streak, something we have needed for a long time. Fadz was a great leader, but he didn't have that nasty side to his game. None of our recent CBs have either (Rose, McNally, Doyle, Binks, Thomas, Lati) - The first OG on Monday was a...

    Callum O'Hare Replacement

    Still think that O'Hare hasn't made a decision. If we don't go up this season (which is more than likely), he probably will be off, but you never know. We really should of laid down a contract for him last summer, if only a 1 year extension. He would of signed that. He should get a run in...

    I'd play Palmer wide right, and slot O'Hare in the No10. role. Sheaf and Torp to start in the middle. MVE back to right back. Attack minded, but we have to go for it

    we needed a proper physical, tall DM in there today, Cardiff were making countless panicked clearances , that their players got on the end of. We sorted that out by the end of the game but were already 2-1 down by then. Need that DM to play alongside Sheaf / Torp. First on the shopping list...

    Palmer was poor after our goal but he was involved in that goal, and was playing some blinding balls behind their defence prior to that. Cardiff switched something after we scored and we were pretty crap from there on in. Tavares is a centre forward, don’t bring him on at right wing. Waste...
