Strange game. First 15 we were flying, then got battered for the rest of it apart from last 10 and yet, could have scored 6!

These are unbeaten at home for ages and we’ve put 4 past em

They're as good as 14 and 17 points behind us respectively.

Today feels like one of those our names on it days

Open goal missed which would have shown other teams that Coventry can bleed

Now we are still mythical gods to these peons

We weren't poor. Middlesborough were really good except up front. Their xG 1.05, they got lucky to get a second in their best performance of the season. Our 40% possession, xG 1.4, but we could have had 7 again. PUSB.

Turning Ellis Simms into a player was the final infinity stone for Lampard. That's it now, he's got the lot, he's taking over. Announce the statue now Bling you tight arse.

We weren't awful , we could've scored 5 first half

We really were. There were 20 minute spells either half where they could've genuinely scored 5 as well.

The miss by Conway should've sealed the game for them.

Some astute tactical and personnel changes in the second half. Rescued what was looking like heading to defeat.

Our worst overall performance of the season for me and weve still scored 4 away at 3rd in the table

Maybe it was a deliberate strategy to let them run out of steam (which they did mostly by the hour) but we seemed to step up a gear after that and looked dangerous

I genuinely think we can delay with it. We do lack depth at wing but everywhere else we are fine

We can play emc and saka till they flogged and then use wingbacks or just go straight to wing backs. KKH looked decent today

We're gonna be ok

What a time to be a Cov fan.

Remember those St Andrews years, that L1 relegation season and the L2 redemption.

Means even more if you do.

I mean let’s be honest, we’ve been 2nd best for a good hour tonight and still scored 4. Rudoni has changed the game in the 10 role and has reminded everyone what we have been missing with Eccles there. But we have an edge I’ve not seen since the League 1 promotion. Outstanding belief. I’m scared I won’t enjoy this season because it’s come out of absolutely nowhere and I can’t really believe what I am watching!

Yep Rudoni too us forward with the ball and we dominated the last 10

Absolute carnage. We’re very crazily open at the back. Especially down the flanks. But going forward we can’t be stopped. Just enjoy the ride.

We've currently only got 1 fit striker, though hopefully Wright back soon

That was just brilliant entertainment. Good on both teams. Chatting to two Boro fans throughout and they thought we were clinical and were not disheartened by the result. Conway's missed chance was huge but a great tactical switch from Lampard and two brilliant cameos from Rudoni and Allen helped set up that late smash and grab. The stuff of champions, that.

Edit: Aside from the scorers who obviously excelled, Rushworth was quietly superb again. Have so much confidence in him.

Remember Boro were unbeaten at home before tonight. The only club with a better home record than them is us.

Fucking hell that was an absolute rollercoaster of emotions. Fucking stressful at times mind you.

The determination and never say die attitude of this team is unbelievable.

What a difference Rudoni made, can't wait to have him back starting.
