Mowbray:

Next 3 points that we talk about

Difficult place to come

Experienced players - expected difficult games

Delighted to get the win

Great recovery after first goal

Had chances ourselves before it

Fully respect Colchester team

Without Armstrong, Murphy changed position. Delighted for him

Difficult morning for the two French lads. Both wanted to play despite calls to home

Not many bad performances

Great travelling support

Joint top bares no relevance. Need to keep getting the points

Next week is a massive tested er as a bench mark

JC lives local and desperate to play but didn't quite make it

When he certainly wasn't convincing when he said how happy he was that we were winning.…. Just waiting for the big comedown when they sell our key players in January. Maybe he should be told we don't own our key players

I am more than happy to have my doubts from the starting lineup proved wrong! It is a good feeling :)

Nah he read me saying I didn't rate him and upped his game. ;)

Still not as good as me saying Jordon Clarke was having a shocker, just as I pressed Post he scored a great goal! :)

All very sensible comments from our manager, shame Nigel can't be a bit more positive.

Mowbray talked about how they've been working with Fortune, telling him he doesn't always have to go with back to goal. Hopefully a turning point for him as he sounded really good today.

Why do they give him air time .. I don't reckon he's ever been to a match

He used to be a season ticket holder and he used to sit a couple of rows in front of me.Very vocal and got pulled up once for saying something abusive which upset a fellow fan,and nearly got decked.Surprised he's staying away though.

I think the best games he has had for us are when he pulls out wide a gets at the full backs, good work again from Mowbray.

I thought to myself this morning that a point would be a good result from this. I can't believe we are going so many games unbeaten and coming from behind to win. What's happened to my Coventry city

Just seen the goals back (thanks to the FB user who posted SSN footage :) ).

Great counter attack for our first. Didn't appreciate at the time how it started with RCC and ended with a goal through a couple of passes!

Was great to see Ruben getting more involved today, with input into te last two goals

He has had a hard life has Nigel, and it has made him a little negative but his heart is in the right place.
Oh and there is no denying he is a massive City Fan..

Like I said earlier a win was only good enough.

We have to keep beating these the teams then we can afford to draw with the teams around us.

Hi last, great win today. Its a good job we have such a strong squad isn't it that we managed to win comfortably without Willis, Reda, Maddison, Cole, Kent and Armstrong :wave:

Teams with a weaker squad than ours would have struggled today.
