[lordsummerisle]

Not another final 8?

[Darth Robins]

As some american guy said 4 years ago: YES WE CAN!

 

[CarpyCov84]

Northampton in final against Aidy B

 

[ccfcway]

its a semi final, which is actually a quarter final, followed by a 2 leg final, which is actaully a semi final, and then a trip to wembley for a fnal.

[usskyblue]

Awesome dudes

[SkyblueDave89]

Dead right this is a massive turning point in City's revival well done City & Mark Robins. Best thing the club has done for years. Crowds will come back now we need to support the club & forget the off field problems PUSB

After that.........

Area Final - Over 2 legs.

Only really have to win 2 games. Hammer someone in one of the area final legs.

Lets not get carried away yet though. Remember we're Coventry!

 

[Otis]

This is the new improved Coventry though. This Coventry washes whiter than ever before!

We've got good bacteria and pro-biotics and a one way dry weave top sheet.

 

[The CableGuy]

3 games left.

Next one - one off fixture.

After that.........

Area Final - Over 2 legs.


after that .........

It's Wembley!!

And after that....CAKE!

 

[PVA]

Absolutely we can.

We're now 7/2 bookies favourites.

 

[Otis]

Preston away is the only game that gives some cause for concern. Any other fixture and we'd have to be very confident.

 

[Black6Osprey]

That list is a real who's who of the football world.

You'd have to be confident of winning the thing now Donny, Brentford and Sheff Utd are all out.

I just can't raise any enthusiasm for it though.

 

[covcity4life]

robins has these players beleiving

i still cant beleive bad luck cov have won 2 pen shootouts this year!

 

[skybluesteve76]

Preston away and I fear the worst! Never do well at Crewe. We are a long long long way from Wembley!

 

[Otis]

Preston away would be the only one that would worry me.

Never do well at Crewe? Pretty sure we beat them 6-1 a few years back. In 9 meetings we have beaten them once and drawn three times. Not brilliant, but we don't always do poorly.

 

[bamalamafizzfazz]

Bradford won away at Port Vale last night, don't write them off.
Also we go into the next round supposedly with no DMC.

Still as confident?? :thinking about:

 

[BurbageSkyBlues]

Southend, fat Freddie final?

 

[nicksig]

When is the draw?

 

[Covstu]

is it on Soccer AM on Saturday again??

As log as we get a home game, I would be confident. Our penalties have been excellent in the last two rounds however it would be nice to kill a team off prior to getting to this point!!!

 

[skybluelee]

Preston away and I fear the worst! Never do well at Crewe. We are a long long long way from Wembley!

We must have played them about six times in the last half a century, what are you on about, man?

 

[Steve.B50]

I bet no one will want to play us though. We must be the best team left in comp.

 

[blueflint]

I bet no one will want to play us though. We must be the best team left in comp.

how do u come to that conclusion as other teams above us in league and the tables dont lie

 

[covcity4life]

as i have said before its time to stop being scared of everyone

yes sheff utd rested 4 players but we still looked comfortable for large periods of the game,and we play better away!

saying that i will be gutted if we get preston!

 

[Otis]

how do u come to that conclusion as other teams above us in league and the tables dont lie

Because we are the in form team and the side with momentum?

 

[King-Dion]

We have as good a chance as anyone else - probably better. As it has been over a quarter of a century since our last notable cup appearance, I like to think we are on track for a visit to Wembley again. We need championship form to finish in the top six and, although not impossible, this trophy is probably our best chance of a little bit of glory. (But wouldn't it be great to beat Spurs 3-2 again? What are the odds on that?
