Playing MVE at right back today against Summerville worked wonders, I’d imagine we’ll do the same against rashford/garnacho but problem is Palmers suspension. Maybe Torp in the middle and OHare on the right.

Ohare was excellent
Palmer was good in possession and better than normal covering but still left us quite open

I’d rather Rashford start against us than Amad or Garnacho on current form.

It was funny hearing Adam Crafton catch himself on The Athletic podcast about Ten Hag, talking about whether winning the FA Cup would be enough to save his job.

"I mean, who has confidence that Man United will beat....well, I was going to say Manchester City but actually Coventry right? That game could be anything"

Listening to Radio 5 Live 606 at the weekend, they had a female presenter (she was far preferable to Robbie Savage) - she came out and said she thought Cov would beat United.

Keith Houchen talks THAT header as Coventry target more FA Cup glory

Keith Houchen can still remember the scene as though it were yesterday. No rundown of the Cup's greatest moments is complete without Houchen's goal.

FA Cup tweeting a few things. Not sure Sheaf will be troubling the co-comms job when he retires.

No one confidently believes Man U will walk over us. Even Man U fans I’ve spoken to seem to think we’ll ‘definitely’ score.

Seriously, are they doing it deliberately this evening?

As if today's announcement didn't already hammer home how little they care about EFL clubs we've then had these 2 basic failures...

Lots of mentions in there about wanting to play in the Premier League soon, I'll be surprised if he's here next year.

He is under contract until summer 2026, so it’s not entirely up to him. Someone will have to match whatever the club‘s valuation is - and Doug won’t undersell.

Looking back at the highlights, forgotten how many chances Cyrille Regis had that day, should've had a hat trick, he absolutely terrified the Leeds defenders. RIP big Cyrille.

I think the noise of the Gynn goal was the loudest I have ever heard at a match.

Coventry have risen from rubble to set up Man United FA Cup clash

IAN HERBERT: The sun is up on a sky-blue day and no one in Coventry feels remotely inclined to wait until the weekend before breathing in the full FA Cup semi-final experience.

Nice. It’s where the coaches are going from so it literally is the road to Wembley.

You know what makes that even more satisfying? During the City of Culture promotion, there was a load of boards just over the road from there by the train station, that had plastered promotional messages all over it. Wasps were on it. Coventry City were not.
