Did you forget the fantastic run of games where we won a shit load with Simms upfront

How many games has he started this season?

The fact he’s our best striker whose automatic first choice and BTA is unlikely to repeat what achieved prior to Christmas.

We have credible options in most positions. Wright is approaching 50 goals. I’d say that’s evidence enough.

It’s not a comment on Wright’s ability, who is one of the best in the league. But again - where is the evidence that we’d struggle without him when we’ve won every game that he’s missed?

I’ve told you why - I don’t see BTA repeating his form and there’s zero evidence he would. Still you seem to have found a friend in Sparkes.

I think Simms has only started 9 league games?

Yes, a friend, don’t you wonder what that’s like sometimes

The only player we can’t do without is Rushworth. Lose him for a number of games,and it’s itchy bum time.

BTA isn’t the replacement for Wright?

Very odd you’re taking this so personally, it’s not even a criticism of Haji!

Im hardly taking anything personally. I think your analysis is incorrect. If responding is taking things personally then no one would?

Feels like we did OK without Haji tonight?

Simms played very well. Two different players.

Major Tom · Mar 11, 2026

BBC-
Is this the night that tipped the scales firmly in Coventry's favour once and for all?

If the Premier League felt close before tonight, it's certainly within reach now.

An emphatic victory for Frank Lampard's side and they are nine points clear of third.

Six wins in a row. The Sky Blues are starting to feel inevitable.

We are in a very privileged position where we are able to rest the league’s top scorer and not really struggle at all to score goals. Thought Simms did well again tonight, as he often has done this season when deputising for Haji.

Perhaps we're spending too much time looking at th9e number of wins and losses. It's the draws that have been the most reliably consistent factor. 20 of the 24 Championship teams this year have drawn almost exactly a quarter of their fixtures. There is no reason to suppose that that same ratio won't continue until the end of the season.

It means almost every team will draw at least two or three of their remaining games. That means nearly every team will drop about 5 points more than most people are expecting will be dropped. Our excellent goal difference should also mean that one less win than most are predicting should be enough for City to clinch automatic promotion this year. 85 points may well be enough. Three wins and two draws should do it.

I now think we may achieve this by the first week in April, with four or five games to spare!

What a great season it has been!

All I want is to keep this gap between us and the teams 3rd and lower. We're running out of games so it keeps putting us in a stronger position. There's several games where the teams below us have to play each other. It could be sooner than we think.

Once we know we're going up then concentrate on the title.

capel & collindridge · Apr 11, 2026

"85 points might well be enough ...
By around the first week in April"

"Once we know we're going up then concentrate on the title"

Lamps and I were correct.

Just 1 more prediction left. They have Portsmouth away on Tuesday which might not be easy, but then they have 4 games in 9 days starting with Middlesbrough at home then 3 more away games on the bounce ending with Southampton. That's 3 away games in 6 days. I can't see them going through this run undefeated.
