Boss not expecting Coventry fans to give King a hostile reception
Coventry boss Aidy Boothroyd does not expect a hostile reception from the club's fans after signing Marlon King.
The striker joined the Sky Bluesbas a free agent this week following his release from prison in July after serving half of an 18-month sentence.
The 30-year-old is expected to make his Coventry debut in Saturday's home clash against Preston and Boothroyd does not anticipate a negative reaction from the home fans at the Rioch Arena.
As regards the opposition fans, he believes any jeers will only arise from their fear of King's goalscoring ability.

Support us
Boothroyd said: "I don't expect any of the home fans to be doing anything like that (giving him a hostile reception), they come to support us and they stand behind us and the decision of the manager.
"I'm sure they'll be fine, particularly when we go on winning runs.
"As far as away fans are concerned, I've always felt that if people shout, boo and have a go at me it's because I'm a threat to them and I quite enjoy that, particularly at places like Millwall.
"He'll get exactly the same, the best players always get stick, the best managers always get stick. You've got to take it as a really big compliment and just get on with it."

I think there will be some boos, but only from a small minority...

If it’s any of the City fans that boo, I guarantee they will soon cheer when the big man bags a hat trick

Come on the City

If you're going boo King just stay at home it's that simple, i hope the people who boo him get a swift headbutt to the groin as when he scores they wont be booing thats for sure!

As the famous Paul Fletcher :)D) said and had played before all our games:

Come on, Come on, Let's stick together!

how can real fans think of booing him at such a crucial time. Were all in this together, its gna impact our other boys on the pitch if some home fans are booing one player. If marlon scores tomoro its a team effort. I will be there tomoro to support my club, i hope everyone else is despite all these boycott rumours.

you must be so proud of having a board and manager with no morals. Don't matter how good he is on the pitch, the man is scum and should still be rotting in a cell.

So lemme see if I've got this right. You're not a City supporter I take it? Why in the hell do you sign up to a COVENTRY CITY forum then??
