It's the Coventry mentality. That's not a bad thing, most supporters are going to be cautious after so many years of rubbish and false dawns! I can't blame anyone for thinking the bubbles going to burst. I'm just hoping it's not for another 5 years!

I'm not expecting a win. It could well be a hard game. But why be happy with a draw? We have not had less than a draw in the league since September :)

so am i its a great bubble we have going if we win i feel the lads will def start feeling they can bully and push teams around and do much damage as they can early on to get a win

Irish i really think young JM will go on to be our best loan signing and Joe C will come good too. Armstrong i hope we keep, Kent is decent yet young and impulsive so not fussed if hes recalled by Klopp. However id like to keep Turner until end of season of if possible

Really looking forward to this one. Bradford are looking strong and they have been getting really big crowds this season so its going to be a tough away game. However after last night in front of our biggest home crowd of the season, the sky blues did not do what they have been accustomed to do in front of big crowds! What a refreshing change that was and it really gives you more hope going into every game that we really can beat anyone in this division with the squad we have right now. The team has gelled fantastically and the movement, pace, technical ability , skill, determination and desire on show is the best I've seen in many many years.

I expect Bradford to be right there in the mix for promotion this year and I will more than happily take a scrappy, hard fought victory to keep us top for a little while at least! Oh and anyone making the journey up, make sure you're fully wrapped up in layers of clothes. It's getting quite chilly up north!

Was you like me and predicted a minimum top 6 finish?

So you have grown a spine this season then :D

Oh absolutely! I'm in agreement with you! I just understand those that are waiting for it to come to an end!

It WAS the Coventry mentality.

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me, and I'm feeling good!

Depends whether it's a first half performance from yesterday or elements of the second half where we dicked about too much and gave away possession.think we will sneak it

This is my local game so tickets already bought and can't believe I'll be standing there watching Cov as the league leaders. Be interesting to see how TM approaches it, does he bring Fortune in for example, but it's great to be anticipating games with excitement not trepidation!

Got to be hoping for a win, can't see it being anything but a tight game though. Bradford 1-2 Cov.

Well yeah, but we only dicked about because we were 4-0 up. We changed the shape of the team knowing the game was won.

Can't see us doing that again.

Weren't it Bradford we played on bonfire night 2004 maybe? The most boring game ever.

Remember our last game in the Prem? Hard to beat that. Both teams were already down and played like they couldn't be arsed.

But the second half only happened the way it did because of what happened in the first half. Complacency sets in and intensity drops. Just human nature I think. It would have been totally different had we been drawing or losing at half time.

Is this the same Bradford team captained by Tony Mcmahon we're worried about ? One of the least talanted players I've seen in the past few years. Also an attack that has Billy Clarke.Them without their biggest threat Hanson and if we play anything like we can I can't see nothing but a win.

Didn't McMahon turn us down in the summer was one of TM's main targets I think.

watched them last week in the FA Cup replay, when Hanson got injured, and thought the back four looked very ponderous...................ideal targets for Murphy and Kent to get at

their fans are saying that "Hurricane Bantam" will blow us away hahahahaha

we've gotta be full of confidence and I reckon 3-1 to the League leaders. PUSB

When I saw his username CovShadow I just assumed he was a Coventry fan at first, but then he talks like he is a Bradford fan which surprised due to my initial assumption.

Maybe he is a Bradford who secretly wishes he was Coventry fan.

I am a Bradford fan but I went to Uni in Cov. I like to see Cov doing well but obviously not against Bradford. So you're pretty accurate with your post CCFC. :)

We aren't captained by McMahon we are captained by Stephen Darby, common mistake made by many, even the BBC...
Clarke is a quality goalscorer and twice the goalscorer Hanson will ever be. Hanson seems to have this reputation of being this quality league One big man but he's definitely not all that good. As for McMahon he is probably one of the most technically gifted players in this league with quality set plays and great vision.

Most know Hanson isn't a particularly gifted player, its just we have a reputation of being susceptible aerially and being bullied by big opposition strikers over the last few years.
