    Coventry City U21s v Birmingham City tonight

    Wonder if they are asking him to work on something they see that he needs to improve on. And if so no better situation than to put it into practice in a game. Whatever it is even if its just getting minutes scoring goals is never a bad thing in a players development.

    Robins has to go…

    I think its very close and i don't think it will be just Robbins that will go. I cant see Doug putting up with much more for much longer.

    Thomas Asante

    Asante and Simms could be a good pairing but i cant see Robins playing 2 up top anytime soon. Asante's work rate is going to give him the advantage against Simms with 1 up top. Robin's has to hope it creates a positive reaction from Simms and he starts to understand what the team needs from a...

    Match Thread Coventry City-SWFC Match Thread- Saturday 5th October

    If Tatsu is out then Robins has a few options open to him. But i wouldn't be making wholesale changes, just because he can. He can start the side that finished the 1st half last night and tell them to give all for as long as they can. Even without Tatsu, Rodriguez and Allen the bench has...

    He will always split opinion no matter what he does, its the way it is for him. I rate him and think he has way more to come. He definitely is trying to look forward quicker and has shown he can hit his target. I just wish he picked up a few more goals that is something he needs to add to his game

    Match Thread Coventry City - Blackburn Rovers Match Thread - Tuesday 1st Oct

    I posted before the game i seen a disconnect and in my opinion it was a communication issue with players, Robins and the coaches.On Saturday Robins eluded to talks after the game which involved everyone having a say in a calm manner. That may be why we seen a change in performance, may be...

    Blackburn Player Ratings

    We definitely haven't seen the best Mason Clark, but it cant be easy for a young player stepping up a level into a struggling side with a big price tag. He has the athletic attributes to be a very good player, and has shown some nice things already. He just needs more time to gain the...

    Thomas Asante

    That's what he does, put him in that position he will run all day, create and will score goals. Id like to see him and Simms as a front 2 at some point this season. Different players but both effective if we play on the front foot as a team.

    Motivation- Down to the players

    Destroyed him, FFS, he was already on the wrong path hence why he got charged with child abuse years later. He would not be someone id be using as a victim of the way Clough managed. Others could of been named and they would be many. Pearce was called a fraud day after returning from England...

    Motivation- Down to the players

    He managed and coached 100s of players and would make examples everyday of players. He was feared by all and it was a respectful fear which got him with Peter Taylor to build fantastic teams. The stories are endless about him, it was his way or no way and he didn't care of opinion of others...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Blackburn Rovers Match Thread - Tuesday 1st Oct

    If i was Robins id match Blackburn up and tell players to win individual battles and earn the right to play. If you give them that responsibility you will see who truly is downing tools or if its just that they don't understand as a team what was being asked of them. Coaching is simple if you...

    The Players

    Normally id just put our lack of positive results down as poor starters, poor individual form, bad luck or a combination of all. But this time i think its something more than just the football gods at work, it definitely feels different. Something is wrong within the group and i get the feeling...

    To those who want Robins gone now

    The teams under Robins have always made bigger strides and improved faster than the club itself, he has always had teams punch up. Im not sure us being favoured or fancied is something he likes or has ever done well with in his management career. He has improved as a manager but this time has...

    Transfer Rumour Raphael Borges Rodriguez signs for Coventry

    I would think Rehab is the most difficult part about being a pro footballer at any point of a career. But for him being young, far away from home and really new to the club is going to be tough on the lad. If he was a few years in the championship career they may of pushed him quicker but if his...

    Callum O'Hare

    Looks shit on us if we react to any ex player news, no point in it, in my opinion. I wish him well apart from when he plays us. Don't look at Sheff Utd results or care, players move, for many different reasons that nobody truly knows. Its the past we have enough to worry about going forward...

    Poll: Should Robins Stay Or Should He Go Now?

    Robins will get some latitude but unless he can get this group of players to work harder and smarter he may be out of a job by Christmas ..

    Referreing

    He was the perfect ref for an away side and they knew it. Top refs let the game flow while letting all the players know they are in control. This ref was over the top and made the game about him .. As for our performance, we are still very nieve and lack leadership on the pitch. Nobody looks...

    Surely fucking not

    Whatever he has done it doesn't seem to be letting him step up to be on the pitch. Its a massive blow to us as we all wanted a good start to which i think he would of been key. Just have to wait for him to heal and find a way of turning in some wins without him. Lets hope he gets up and...
