Premier League here we come.

Ouch, feel your pain after falling victim to a roving camera myself recently.

My own fault, Wingy. Used a parking app, parked in a hotel car park, but didn't read the instructions which said I had to report to reception and give them my reg number. Dumb.

On Saturday we're in a Sainsbury's car park, which is much better.

Another bad one was Preston the year before last. Went into a bus lane, twice, eight minutes apart, two £45 fines!

Hmmm...death, taxes, and Torchomatic getting a parking fine at grounds Coventry City never win at...

'Coventry have won just one of their past 21 away league games against Derby (D9 L11); a 3-1 victory in October 2003.'

'Coventry haven't won their opening away game in any of the past seven league campaigns (D3 L4) since winning 2-0 at Grimsby Town in League Two back in 2017-18.'

Still, first trip to Derby

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

One less midfielder away from home? Unlikely. If EMC is injured then Wright plays left and Simms up top.

4-2-3-1 and 4-4-2 are more or less the same formation. Rudoni and the starting striker sit in a 4-4-2 shape out of possession.

Rudoni and Wright had free roles v Hull and Luton, the play style being different of course but there isn’t much difference.

Lampard doesn’t take any notice of Coventry city’s historical incompetence, but puts a more professional slant on these “ we won’t get a result here “ fixtures , so a massive challenge ahead , on our first away game ……fingers & everything else crossed

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I would be happy with a draw to be honest

 

[Covcraig@bury]

2-2 can’t see us winning

 

[Johhny Blue]

Watching Bidwell @ Derby Away last year, I have never shook my head so much during a match

You don’t watch tennis?

 

[Ashdown]

Hope it's better than the last game at Derby. Awful performance and a £60 parking fine.

Rip off Britain, fucking scraping money out of people at every opportunity.

 

[quinn1971]

another clean sheet and another for simms,

I thought you were all for law and order?

2.0 Cov

 

[Nick]

If we play like we did last year. They totally dominated us.

 

[Paxman II]

We win this at a canter.

 

[StrettoBoy]

I feel a bit pessimistic about this one, for no better reason than we always seem to struggle as their place.

In an effort to cheer myself up, I’m going to predict another clean sheet and Simms or Rudoni to grab us a winner.

I am , but councils and private companies in the UK totally take advantage of people in regards to parking cars.

You can just not park like a prick. It’s possible.
