And we look solid at the back. We've given two goals away to really awful goalkeeping errors. Besides that we have hardly been under much threat. That has to be a good sign.
Bit worried on the striking front. If Andreu is injured and Biamou and McNulty and Thomas is on loan, that only leaves Beavon, Nazon and Ponticelli doesn't it?
I certainly didn't feel it was a red. I thought he definitely did bring him down, but that there were other defenders covering, so should have been a yellow.

Great to get a win, but how badly do we need a goal scorer
We are creating chances we just can't score
Been watching too much match of the day I'm afraid and listening to the pundits. There is no such thing as "last man" which is a term banded about every week. The definition is "denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity" of which there could be 5 or 7 men in the vicinity.
How many chances did we create today? Seriously!
Or sky for that matterHow many chances did we create today? Seriously!
Very disappointed with the attendance today.

Watching it back, stokes was also there and could have got there

Coventry 1-0 Port Vale: Jodi Jones' superb goal enough for Sky Blues
At the time it looked like he made it look accidental and used his trailing leg as he was beatenDisagree, I think if Rod doesn't foul him, stokes wasn't closing him down fast enough to stop him getting 1vs1 and getting a shot away. And even if he gets across, it's a simple pass across for a tap in.
However as I said, it looks like an accident to me, so not sure it it's a sending off by the Letter of the law.
Can't really tell from that angle, but you probably have a better idea than I doAt the time it looked like he made it look accidental and used his trailing leg as he was beaten
We created no chances a striker would score thanks for confirming.
Denial of an obvious goal scoring opportunity has the following criteria:
On that basis this fails on at least two and possible all four. The direction of play was away from the goal and there was another defender moving in to cover.
- distance between the offence and the goal
- general direction of the play
- likelihood of keeping or gaining control of the ball
- location and number of defenders
You could also argue on distance to goal and the likelihood of the forward keeping control of the ball had the foul not been committed.
You contradict yourself all the time you clown. So football isn't about the fans after allFact of life unfortunately. If you keep cutting costs and offering a less and less attractive product. Your customer base will naturally fall.
Still I am sure it will become part of a justification as to why we no longer suit playing at the Ricoh.
Thats not true at allGreat to get a win, but how badly do we need a goal scorer

It should have been a much more emphatic victory, with the Sky Blues failing to convert a number of second-half chances.
Not failing to create
Do keep up
Sky and BBC said the same.
Most people are also in agreement that we need a decent goal scorer.
Our chances were predominantly from midfielders moving into advanced positions. The only shot I can recall in the area was from Beavon
As FP says you are a clown
No, to put it simply from the start of this season if a challenge to win the ball in the penalty area was a "genuine attempt to play the ball" in the opinion of the referee, a penalty is awarded and a caution. Whereas last season it would be a double whammy i.e. penalty and red card.However wasn't the rule relaxed last season? To the extent that if it looked like an accident that it was no longer a sending off? It doesn't seem like it was definitely on purpose?
I said I'd take the bet you lying dickheadGot FP on block have done for a while he is a just a mere wum. Once he bottled a charity bet over one of his wumming comments. That was enough to expose the weasel for what he really is.
