One of the most frustrating performances from a Coventry side in years. To be so comfortable and to throw it away from a lack of fight is unacceptable.

I'm sure I will chill out and be more reasoned come tomorrow but it's fucking ridiculous how this has been thrown away. I will see you all boxing day. Have a good Christmas.

Portsmouth are a poor side but we haven’t laid a glove on them second half. And with the way we have defended a Sunday league would have a chance beating us

No point talking about Robins, he is gone and was a big part of building this squad mist are slating. Dont blame DA or FL, DA never put a gun to MR head to sign them and FL didnt sign any of them .

Its very obvious what the issue is and its playing out in front of us all. No leadership on or off the pitch within the group, 6 of the current squad are not good enough and confidence within is soft.. FL needs time but its no point talking about Robins he was definitely part of building this squad.

FL knew and all today has done is give him the ability to say who is not good enough and who isnt part of any of his plans going forward.

Subs can’t do anything at 4-1
We’ve come out second half and played as if we’re drunk

Lang has scored as many goals in an hour today, as Simms and Bassette have scored all season.

I don't think you'll hear a louder round of applause by the Pompey for Lang... until full time for Brad Collins.

I'll put it down to this being a wank side and a manager consistently picking players that aren't good enough.

Lampard's been here long enough to see that Collins, Binks and Dasilva are dross.

If he doesn't drop Collins especially I would question him

Good to see Jamie Allen coming on.

He always puts in a shift which isn’t what you can say about a number of our players.

These are good players. The coaching has been off since it was changed early in the year. Robin's had problems with it and Vivash clearly had issues. You can see players are not sure of their roles. The Vivash/Robin's combination would have continued their good work and had us top six. Where did it go wrong since an FA Cup semi final with the same players? Lampard is not the answer but Doug King wanted to set the club up like a good salesman with huge improvements around the place, track suit wearing coaches and fitness guru's. The problem is you play on a footbal pitch and if you let the players think they just have to turn up then inevitably they are found wanting. Back to basics, with a good manager is what we need and lampard imo will never be it. If you are given a brilliant start after 4 minutes and then even missed easy chances to put the game out of sight then find yourself 4-1 down is a sign of a lack of control and basic coaching ability. Like so many great players they are hopeless coaches. Do we still have Robin's and Vivash's numbers? I see those 27k gates dropping like a stone now...great business King!

Embarrassing how little it took for our so called fans to try and tarnish the legacy of the man who saved us from oblivion and gave most of us the best 7 years of our lives supporting the club.

Apart from the new coaching setup was down to Robins rather than King.

First season back in championship? Yes you did. I remember arguing with you because I liked our passing game and you wanted us to play basic long ball to try stay up

MVE has been poor for most of the season. He's got credit in the bank which is saving him from a lot of stick.

Sheaf is in the category too.

Are we back on our “random press unconnected to CCFC have an anti-Doug agenda and are planting stories” thing?
