He should of been sacked after Morecambe.

It's a massive factor that this is Coventry City and we have been in perpetual decline for nearly 20 years. Nothing but doom and gloom for every season more or less.
We don't make the playoffs this season the drop in ST's and interest next season is going to be at an all time low.
I don't want to see him sacked, but if we start slipping, but are still in with a chance of a playoff place at least, then I think we would HAVE to replace him.
For me this is a one season deal. I know stats show that most clubs don't come straight back up, but have any of those clubs had season after season after season of demise and no top 6 finishes?
Nearly 20 years of decline, so for me it is shit or bust. We HAVE to have a successful season.
cant agree that Vale were just as bad. They deserved their win and played to their strengths. If one of their target men had played for us rather than Biamou we would have won in my opinion.One shot on target the whole game sums it up. Vale were just as bad but got the break. I am starting to fear another season of disappointment... but what’s new.
To be fair, 3 of those 4 have only got injured in the last month. I still maintain it's mostly the way we set up, although how deep our defence is sitting is becoming as much of an issue as the gap was in attacking midfield. It forces the long ball out of Doyle and the CBs towards a completely isolated Biamou.
Results haven’t really changed regardless of the injuries.
You’ll be positive again tomorrow morning Otis!Thing is, Carlisle is a difficult place to go to too and they have now won 3 in a row, 2 league games and then Gillingham in the FA Cup.
They must really fancy their chances against us on Saturday.
Hate to say it, but this is the most I have been down all season. Always been upbeat, despite some poor results here and there, but this time I really thought we had turned a corner and I was expecting at least a draw today. Thought we had at last started to build momentum.
Very glum in the Otis household this evening.
You’re right again but I’m certain (and it’s only my opinion) that having had Andreu for the whole season, coupled with a fit Jones and Kelly, we’d be in the Autos. Only my opinion and others will disagree...hey ho.
Hoping Robins makes the necessary changes and gets back to moving up the table.
6 points for last 9. Not too bad and about right for where we are.

Probably not. The daughter is on a sleep over and the missus is getting wound up about Ukraine again.You’ll be positive again tomorrow morning Otis!
Is she Ukrainian then Otis? Or just a concerned citizen of the world?Probably not. The daughter is on a sleep over and the missus is getting wound up about Ukraine again.
Lets put the real stats up last 6 games
14 Coventry City D 1-1 v STEV.. D 1-1 v CRAW.. L 2-0 v MORE.. W 2-1 v CHEL.. W 3-2 v WYCO.. L 1-0 v PORT.. 6 2 2 2 7 8 -1 8
so its actually 8 points from 18 , minus 1 goal difference and current form sitting at 14th, this is hardly inspiring
Nope, Russian and she totally blames Ukraine for the Russians having to go in and 'help people' over there.Is she Ukrainian then Otis? Or just a concerned citizen of the world?
6 points from the last 9 is real stats. Cut them any way you want to, we’re still inside the play offs without a few of our best players.

You want to tell her to stop worrying about shit she can’t change, and get you some dinner sorted!Nope, Russian and she totally blames Ukraine for the Russians having to go in and 'help people' over there.
She watches videos every single day with Russian politicians slagging off Ukraine blaming them for everything.
In her world Putin is a great, kind and generous man who would never hurt anyone.
I don't speak Russian, but can hear video after video with aggressive political debates and the word 'Ukraine,' keep spouting up.
Putin can do NO wrong in her world and all the troubles there are completely Ukraine's own fault.

Oh blimey Otis, that’s tough. I think most people in this country would have a different view, although it doesn’t mean to say we’re right! I see that they’ve barred Navalny from running next year, it’s hard to see anybody beating Putin until he’s ready to go himself. Sorry to go off piste!Nope, Russian and she totally blames Ukraine for the Russians having to go in and 'help people' over there.

Yeah, I know. Weird isn't it. She is totally and completely obsessed with Putin and will not hear a word against him.Odd really. I work with a Russian and she has totally the opposite views and likes Ukraine.

All I can tell you is she's watching endless Russian TV programmes, that look a bit like Question Time, but they are all standing at podiums as per our leadership debates over here.
Lots of angry debating and all I hear is the frequent use of the word 'Ukraine ' and I all get from her is 'you'll never believe what the Ukrainians have done now' and she's constantly moaning that they now no longer teach Russian in Ukrainian schools etc.
Having lived in Russia and seen at first hand the way the administration works people don't challenge anything because they know the state will crush them. There are demos most weekends in Moscow but it is so well policed and monitored that it generally becomes a muted protest.I saw the other day on the Beeb site they were talking about a lot of the younger generation were moving away and out of Russia.
I think the younger generation are a lot more questioning in their attitudes.
How many times have we heard that after an away game this season , come on Mr Robins short it out !
Some strange stuff
There forwards are two old cloggers and pope is possibly the slowest player in the whole of the 92 clubs, we made it a difficult place to go to I bet Luton don’t
He is the second slowest.
Vincenti is the slowest footballer in England.
you need a few games to get a trend though, if it was 12 out of 18 I would feel far more confident.
Thing is, Carlisle is a difficult place to go to too and they have now won 3 in a row, 2 league games and then Gillingham in the FA Cup.

Coventry had a large Ukraine community as my father used to use their club on leicester Causeway I grew up with a lot of them, such good honourable people.Odd really. I work with a Russian and she has totally the opposite views and likes Ukraine.
Yeh, I always consider myself lucky, as well as God knows how many years of hurt, I had 3 or 4 years from 1963, when we used to roll teams over at home, won two promotions, and it was often a matter of not whether we would win but by how many. There’s been a few good times after those halcyon days, but a lot more pain!
Well, hate to say I told you so, but I said at the start of the season we didn't have enough cover in midfield, but a number of posters dismissed that notion and said we'd be fine.I started in 1963 too and so was lucky to watch very well organised teams with some inspirational players in them. It's mainly been downhill since then. Our current situation is largely down to injuries to midfielders. We started the season with inadequate cover in those positions and now we're paying the price for that. Hopefully, this will be addressed in January.
Me plus 3 going can't wait.
Easy win will have to sit in the carpark again watching there 10 year olds giving it large.
Bit cruel of you to send your kids to the Port Vale game while you did that.Think I made the right call in watching Cinderella at the hippodrome yesterday.
Well done for those who travelled.
