ast minute drama for Coventry!

Their two chief creators - Gustavo Hamer and Callum O'Hare - combine to tee up Matty Godden, who provides the finish.

It's the least they deserve.

Coventry 2-1 Reading
And that's the final whistle. Wow.
It's almost a carbon copy of their win over Nottingham Forest on the opening weekend, when Coventry scoring a 96th-minute winner. This was even later!
Isn't it great to have fans back at the Coventry Building Society Arena. Reading are dejected but their negative approach in the second half came back to bite them.

Bloody hell! Supporting this club ain't good for your health.

Wasn't too sure about starting XI. Putting Dabo at CB and Dacosta at RWB makes us weaker in two positions compared to playing Pask at CB and Dabo in his preferred position.

Again we played well, created chances, didn't put them away, obligatory hitting of woodwork, stupid penalty conceded and you felt it was going to be another one of those days.

Team didn't give up, got back into the game and then used the added time in added time to score after their time wasting. makes it quite sweet.

I'd love it if we could just put a few early chances away and not have the nerves at the end.

get everyone fit and keep playing like that & someone soon is going to take a thrashing off us. Reading made no attempt to do anything in the second half but still- we were MILES superior

Wow, what a game, what a win, what a team.

Deserved that, by far the best team.

We'll fight till the game is won CITY

OMFG.....great, great win and super sub Godden...i love you.
Jesus, im so sorry to have a little moan about us when we are 4th in the league, after 3 wins and 1 defeat in 4 games...but i'm still pissed that we were mugged off by Barnsley.....just think if we'd have won our first 4 games...which could genuinely have happened, as we dominated Barnsley :eek: :eek: :eek:

You look at the teams in the league and compared to last season I'm not particularly blown away or worried by anybody except west brom and Fulham?

I think the play off spots are up for grabs to everyone this year. Covid has been a great leveller from our perspective. May not get a better chance than this to push on up the division.

Admittedly we have had a relatively nice start in terms of the team's we have played, but we should have best Barnsley too, I'm confident we can have a good season, and at least achieve top half.

And don’t forget there’s something going on at the club.

If only we recruited like Luton.

utterly beyond me how people don’t learn to wait and see what actually happens, but we all want the same thing ultimately

Really good togetherness between the players and just as importantly there’s a bond between players and fans again.

Not saying the outcome will be the same, but it’s reminiscent of promotion seasons.

Having Dabo back as the outlet on the right is so important for us.

Hope our CBs get fit soon.

We should never have lost against Barnsley but arguably we were a bit fortunate to beat Forest. So overall can't complain at the points total- maybe one less than we should have at this point going on performances.
