    Match Thread Coventry City - Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Feb

    Something is really telling me we’ll lose this, which I never usually feel for any home game. Hopefully proved wrong!

    Premier league standard

    Agreed. The fact that clubs actively aim to become a yo-yo is understandable, but depressing.

    Premier league standard

    I mean this is the nail on the head. I would honestly choose to win the championship and then stay in it the season after. The gulf is ridiculous and causing a real problem. The premier league for the bottom six is just a dogfight with heavy defeat week after week. Not to mention you have VAR. I...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town [FA] Match Thread - Saturday 8th Feb

    I get that promotion at any cost is vital for financial terms. But the last few games really show how miserable it would be in the premier league. We are nowhere near.

    Really don’t like 12.30 kick offs. Crowd can’t get as drunk which ruins the atmosphere. I’m guessing this means we’ll know about the Sunderland game by next week?

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    Didn’t manage to make it tonight. What was atmosphere like? Sounds like they knocked the stuffing out of us pretty quickly.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    Feeling oddly excited/nervous about tonight. It shouldn’t really define our season so don’t know why. Maybe feels like a win could be a big sign of where we truly are?

    Relegation Battle?

    Sheff W too I think? But point still holds.

    Relegation Battle?

    Yeah 50 to be safe. You’d hope even by Cov standards we can reach that, but you never know.

    Relegation Battle?

    I created the thread and have to admit I got it wrong. To be honest the thing I love about football, and sport in general, is how quickly things can change and make you look foolish (it was similar with the England test team under McCullum). There’s just no way I would have predicted us winning...

    Play Off Final 24th May

    Same with me and my Dad. I’ll have to be in a coma before I miss a Cov Wembley trip.

    I’m the same! People think I am mad, but I always believe every season!

    And with that Simms chance....

    I think what is very clear from Simms is how much of a confidence player he is. Need to utilise him when on form and have an appropriate back-up when he has a dip.

    Was Doug correct about the deck?

    I wouldn’t take for granted that we’d survive let alone only spend a season in league 1. No club has a divine right to exist. Remember in league 2 we were only getting attendances of about 6,000.

    10 more points for safety ;)

    Honestly every season I am worried until we reach 50 points 😂😂😂 even if we don’t get playoffs I would be delighted with a top ten finish and to further build the team in the summer

    Was Doug correct about the deck?

    That might be true with the exception of Bury, which I still think is a terrible thing to lose in a community. That said, it was really no fun having constant conversations about our financial situation rather than talking about the football. It really was miserable and I wouldn’t want us to...

    Was Doug correct about the deck?

    Like most things it’s a balance, but I’d always choose the financial sustainability route. Perhaps scarred by the administration days.

    Play Off Final 24th May

    Just if our interest my Dad constantly brags to me that he’s been to every City Wembley game. Anybody else here able to do the same? I count 6 overall?

    Was Doug correct about the deck?

    I don’t really understand that? Happily admitted I was wrong already, but either way why would that mean I would think it’s ’too soon’ to go up. I’d always rather go up then not.

    Was Doug correct about the deck?

    Well of course that’s the case, but presuming you want to follow the yo-yo method, you don’t want to be spending too much money to invest in the squad that gets us back in financial trouble. I would just like more players in the squad that I would consider definite PL, but would still rather go...
