We've been 6/1 2nd favourites for a while now tbf. Ipswich, however, have dropped from 9/2 to 7/2. So the bookies clearly watched the 5-0 drumming of Blunts

Middlesbrough, Bristol City and Stoke are good odds considering the start they have had. We're about where I expected.

It’s why teams even like Norwich are coming here and parking the bus. We should take it as a compliment.

Really i thought blues were 2nd favorites up until yesterday. They have really dropped.

Even though we drew the bookies go by stats they would have seen the stats from yesterday.

I think when you yo-yo for a while you do get gradually worse, then the other teams have to take the opportunity to strike.

think we’ll struggle to keep it going over season with our squad size, if we lose any of our attacking players it’ll be a massive loss, but that 11 Saturday is top 2/3, add wolfenden and dovin to it, even better

Why have our odds shortened so much? We’ve done well but the bookies surely know our squad depth isn’t amazing.

I know stats dont mean alot to some but our attacking statistics by all metrics are ridiculous. If we can keep this up for the next 5 then this is the real deal.

I would rather not be in the bookies table and just go along quietly without too much press

Ipswich and Birmingham just dont look convincing at all.

The sides that have come down have huge question marks in certain areas in striking positions.

Leicester/ ipswich and Birmingham look toothless.

Do Southampton look convincing? They won yesterday and looked better but feel they have the strikers to pick up more wins. But do look shaky at the back.

This is irrelevant really. Wouild rather be the underdog, than the favourite with further to fall.

And so we should be. The odds given are not exactly on teams chances but to cover bets so the bookies make money whoever wins. A lot of people have noticed the way we play. They have seen the goals we have scored. The draw at Leicester was a big result. Those who don't support Coventry will be a lot more confident of out chances than we are.

Such a tight league Goal difference could make a big difference this year. As you can see already so compacted. Don't remember it very being like this.

We will know how good we are by the end of December as we have a really hard run of games in November and December.
