And yet it's nowhere on our social media. I have no idea whyU18’s beat Watford 2-1 at the Higgs today (01/04/2025). Thrilling game, very end to end with Watford taking a 1-0 lead via a certain Kristian Shevchenko, but Coventry fought back with 2 goals in the last 15 mins to seal the victory. That’s 6 wins in a row now.

Think there's only been about three games this season where they've shown the team.They could've at least posted the team sheet so we could've seen who's was playing.
I wondered if it was a gdpr/under 18s privacy thing but I think it's just pure neglect as other teams post our teams and scorers and we just pretend it doesn't happen!Think there's only been about three games this season where they've shown the team.
Almost as hard just to find out the scorers.
I tend to look there but even they usually have little except the result for us. Opposition often have teams and scorers, but we don't, so it has to be a conscious decision by the club they don't want this info known.I find the website youthawk is pretty good for information .
yeah we've lost a few talented lads just latelyI tend to look there but even they usually have little except the result for us. Opposition often have teams and scorers, but we don't, so it has to be a conscious decision by the club they don't want this info known.
Could be due to their age and safeguarding, but could also be they want as little getting out so bigger clubs have to work harder to poach our youngsters.
Daniel SturridgeMaybe we need to start a "Whatever Happened To?" for those that got poached as a youngster.
How many made it, and at what level. Did we actually get a good deal getting compensation for them as a youngster?
Been others as well though. Those we've lost in the last few years it's too early to say. Seem to remember a young lad called Topi(?) being poached by Bolton years ago but he's far from the only one.Daniel Sturridge
Probably more by his agent.The 15 year old who came on as sub for Leicester tonight , Jeremy Monga, is a former Coventry Academy player and is from Coventry. He’s now being touted by the likes of Real Madrid and Man City.
End of term?2-0 down after 15 mins against Ipswich
Nothing on the academy twitter site so no idea who's playing
U18 won again as well against Peterboro. 8 in a row and up to third. Again nothing apart from the score available.U21s Lost 3-2 away to Peterborough this afternoon - Raphael scoring both (one penalty). Nothing on the website or social media that I have seen.
And yet it's nowhere on our social media. I have no idea why
Shame we don't know anything about the teamThe U18’s have won 8 games in a row now
The club needs to improve it's social media presence for the U21 and U18's.Shame we don't know anything about the team
Yeah they usually take updates from other club accounts tooThe club set up a separate twitter feed for the academy last year - sensible as it had initially the same level of match updates as the main matchday feed (so you wouldn't get loads of academy updates if you weren't interested) but seems to have dried up this year
2-0 up against Swansea
Any one know what team they put out, nothing on social media.
Finished 2-1Any one know what team they put out, nothing on social media.
Finished 2-1
Howley played. Considering Lampard is putting Isaac Moore on the bench over Howley, his progression hasn't happened!
They’re keeping things quiet with the 18s, for the reasons that’s been said. Scouts are at every game and all looking at who they can pinch.Shame we don't know anything about the team
