    Match Thread Blackburn Rovers - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 27th Apr

    All that has happened today is confirmed what we’ve known for a few weeks. I’m not sure I understand the overreaction. In isolation getting a draw when down to 10 men is usually considered decent anyway. We’ve been saying for 11 months that 24-25 is our time to shine. We’ve got a young...

    Next season

    Christ, talk about an overreaction. I agreed that we need a leader. Not sure how you take from that I’m a zealot.

    Next season

    O'Hare will go, Sheaf maybe. Other than that no one will. They’ll be no rebuild. No excuse for another slow start to the season

    Next season

    Agree. It’s against the model, but we need a McFadzean/Doyle type player to steady the heads of the younger ones when things aren’t going well

    There isn’t really any excuse for the current squad being play off capable (other than a bit more depth)

    Match Thread Blackburn Rovers - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 27th Apr

    So basically the first clean sheet in about 2 months after having a CB sent off. I actually thought once we went down to 10 men it was quite a spirited performance Ipswich will be hard, but we need a win against QPR next week to make sure we end on a high. Remember this was always the...

    How did We'll Live and Die in these Towns start before kick offs?

    It translate well as a football song. Most of the time success is for other people, not you. But don’t let it get you down.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Wednesday 24th Apr

    The current squad are capable of top 6 next season without improvement. Add some depth, and sort the defence out and there’s no reason at all that we can’t push for the automatics

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Wednesday 24th Apr

    Hull players came across as a right bunch of scumbags. Why, after scoring, did their players run away from their own fans and instead try and incite a reaction from singers corner? When it’s a local derby, or fans had been particularly hostile to individual players I could maybe understand...

    So basically on Sunday we got screwed because VAR was used and tonight we got screwed because VAR wasn’t used. Sometimes I hate football

    Yes I remember that. It was in place of when Mr Blue Sky is currently played

    4 Wembley visits in 7 years shows the change in our club

    Coleman era was the most depressing for me. New owners who had (briefly) backed him, signed some decent players, and we were still crap. Our performances were so lacklustre. By the time things got really bad (Thorn, Northampton etc) the off pitch stuff took centre stage and the poor football...

    MR profile

    Robins has said before about how easy his job is because he’s got all the right people in place that he trusts. For a man that has never craved the limelight, I’m not sure what it would be that tempts him away.

    MR profile

    No chance. The whole club is now his. He will want to stay as long as it takes for us to get promoted. He’s said that unofficially many times. I very much doubt he would destroy that opportunity for the sake of 6 months at a bottom half premier league side. Robins teams always start slow...

    How did We'll Live and Die in these Towns start before kick offs?

    There isn’t time. Even with the cut down version they play at KO you can see the ref is waiting to get the game started. The only way they could fit it in is to play it before the players come out, but half the supporters are still in the concourse at that point. Only reason it worked at...

    Congrats. You've been shite at times, but over 46 games you deserve it

    Interesting take on the reality of the promised land

    On the contrary, I think people would soon lose interest in a super league, as it would be incredibly boring. With those teams gone, the Premier League would become more like the championship, just slightly more skilful

    Interesting take on the reality of the promised land

    I’m happy with that. The so called “big 6” stopped bringing anything meaningful to English football years ago. Nowadays they are just a hindrance to other 86 clubs. Take them out and imagine how great the Premier League would be? Last season you’d have had an exciting title race between...

    It certainly wasn’t as loud. Probably just singers corner singing it.

    You don’t have to like it in fairness. It’s not played for entertainment value. It’s an anthem. A show of strength & unity before battle.
