Let’s not kid ourselves as brilliant as we were yesterday, and we were magnificent, Wolves would beat us most weeks. We have seen that with how the promoted teams have coped this season.A lot of people would have you believe even mediocre Premier League players are in some way superhuman. Nice to put that bullshit to bed.

Yet even with injuries they’re still a top half PL side. Play that tie 10 times and we lose most of them sure, but that’s the beauty of cup football.Let’s not kid ourselves as brilliant as we were yesterday, and we were magnificent, Wolves would beat us most weeks.

Wolves didn’t have their first 4 first team attackers …. This was a big part of why they looked so toothless
Why would we care about teams not having their best playersLet’s not kid ourselves as brilliant as we were yesterday, and we were magnificent, Wolves would beat us most weeks. We have seen that with how the promoted teams have coped this season.

yeah I drove to yesterdays game and heard him. He said all that and the bit that stuck with me was 8/13 are brilliant odds. I don’t see how you don’t win. Maybe he was trying to get everyone to lose their money on wolves really.

They didn't look like they'd beat us 9 times out of 10 tbf, they were shite.Yet even with injuries they’re still a top half PL side. Play that tie 10 times and we lose most of them sure, but that’s the beauty of cup football.
Absolutely mate, Sakamoto a huge player for us, to the point we've been arsing around with formations again just because the guy is injured.They do realise we were missing allen and Saka and sheaf returned for 20 mins last week
Cry those salty tears Gary
They put in a really complacent performance, goalkeeper aside. It should give people belief though that if we ever make it up that talk of threatening Derby’s record is insane. Even these piss poor Sheff Utd and Burnley teams will get at least double that total this season.They didn't look like they'd beat us 9 times out of 10 tbf, they were shite.

Agree - would like to go to Wembley with a slim chance, so Chelsea or Man U for me (although Leicester would be fun/unbearable!)No chance against Man City or Liverpool
Slim chance against Man Utd or Chelsea
Pretty esteemed company to be in
Both Man Utd and Chelsea are very inconsistent. We could get twatted or equally spring an upset.Agree - would like to go to Wembley with a slim chance, so Chelsea or Man U for me (although Leicester would be fun/unbearable!)
Agree with all of that - off at a tangent, it was the first time I've heard MR say that as well as a Cup run, he'd been tasked with getting us to the play offs 3 times in 5 years (sure I heard him say that) which sounded a strange thing to publicise. It also sounds a bit 'pressured'. I was wondering if there was any correlation between that and the length of the stadium contract with Ashley? Don't wat to go down that rabbit hole on such a glorious weekend, but just had me wondering.Both Man Utd and Chelsea are very inconsistent. We could get twatted or equally spring an upset.
Liverpool hunting silverware for Klopp’s farewell, no chance
Guardiola wanting silverware because his side are struggling to defend the league title, no chance
With a high transfer spend comes higher expectation, but I doubt that if he ‘only’ made two top 6 finishes that he’d be out the door.Agree with all of that - off at a tangent, it was the first time I've heard MR say that as well as a Cup run, he'd been tasked with getting us to the play offs 3 times in 5 years (sure I heard him say that) which sounded a strange thing to publicise.

It was more that MR said it. I can understand that most owners etc sit down with the manager and discuss targets/expectations for the upcoming season(s), I was just interested that MR mentioned it alongside the FA Cup run (which he had mentioned before) , particularly with the 3 times in 5 years. I suppose it has little context in terms of how conversational those targets were discussed (a chat/a demand etc). MR doesn't seem to have an axe to grind, and I can't believe that DK dare consider ousting the real 'king' but i found it interesting nonetheless.It’s not helpful of King to say that I agree.
The 3 times in 5 years were King’s words in the summer weren’t they?It was more that MR said it.

Oh, missed that - must have been busy being an unpaid taxi driver for my son at the time (not that I'm bitter).The 3 times in 5 years were King’s words in the summer weren’t they?
Yes.The 3 times in 5 years were King’s words in the summer weren’t they?
Bellagarde missing as wellWolves team yesterday was 10 of the same players that beat Fulham In the Premier league last week .. only neto missing
I don’t care who they had missing - that wolves team was more valuable than ours and should be beating us.Bellagarde missing as well
Very few journalists/pundits/bookies do any research outside of the top flight teams. So when they try to sound all knowledgeable about us just come across as thick twats.yeah I drove to yesterdays game and heard him. He said all that and the bit that stuck with me was 8/13 are brilliant odds. I don’t see how you don’t win. Maybe he was trying to get everyone to lose their money on wolves really.
He came off at 0-0 tbh 11 mins , they won 2-1.Bellagarde missing as well
Can't say a Manchester City fan being jealous of Coventry was on my 2024 bingo card
Maybe our quote should be " Wolves were able to play us after Hamer got injured in the semi final and effectively cost us the game, if we had won we would have had more players to have chosen from and our manager wouldn't have been able to inspire his team to outplay you and gloat at your ballboy wasting time" or maybe Gary Oexcuse could have been humble and said well done to Coventry who on the day thoroughly deserved to beat us !!! prize twatI like Gary O'Neill, but this quote stinks of sour grapes:
"Coventry were able to capitalise on the fact they played us on a day when we were miles below our best with loads of players missing, and we weren’t able to get it done"
Even my mate who supports that other lowly Manchester team and worked at Peugeot and said he disliked our mighty team because it was rammed down his throat for all those years said what a fantastic game of football it was and the mighty Coventry City FC deserved to win, but he did follow it up saying Wolves were shit... I told him we made them look shitHas to be up there, even for a neutral it's an amazing game.
