[Harry's Game]

I never felt much towards coventry until the tennis ball episode, think they could have done something not to try to influence the game but in the end the correct result came to us so since then ive disliked them. I think they are a decent team who were under achieving and will be very dangerous opponents , hoping for a win but not confident . We need to play front foot football not the scared to lose style we had against leeds and boro

Their fans been on multiple Twitter thread about United predicting our collapse since before the Preston game .. they really are an odd bunch

If Blaster and Moore were fit you would know. This is the problem for a thin squad and it needs addressing in the JTW. I just hope wilder can weave his magic between now and the jtw to keep us in the mix and the effing takeover goes through to allow for the possibility of bringing in the necessary quality and squad depth to get us over the line.

 

[Menage a petit pois]

As for cov...meh club...meh town..meh fans in a meh part of the country. As soon as the match finishes I will be getting out of there ASAP...the fact that my destination is Birmingham says it all.

Perhaps they should remind us how their season is going. Sacked a manager last time I checked…

 

[Charlieblade]

Do Coventry have a new manager yet? Van Nistleroy the favourite?

No, not yet

The Star article on Blasters injury mentioned a pre match press conference yesterday afternoon, but nothing to watch back on SUFC website. Confused.

 

[Argentinemanager]

Presser will be on at 1-15

 

[Cappy]

deleted. I'm confused

Fan sets up an account on the board of another club to comment on said club to say he doesn’t give a fuck about said club..

I can't remember why I joined by I've amassed 9 posts in two and a half years. I haven't said anything abusive or tried to troll. I can't even remember why I joined tbqh.

It must be an internet age thing but a few posts from one or two individuals suddenly means "they're trying to set up a rivalry" - you seem like just the culprit to say such a thing you nause.

A complete banana skin of a fixture.

New manager
after an international break
early kick off for TV

Given the injuries, I think this might end up in a fairly boring draw.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Sounds like same squad + Tom Davies for tomorrow.

Have Coventry appointed a manager yet?

You're right, I should have said managerless.

edit: although, amusingly...

"Exclusive: Coventry City agree Frank Lampard deal"

You've covered both bases on the thread now so you're golden whatever happens

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

I could see Bert forcing postponement of this and many other games.
Oops, Storm Bert I mean. Nearly got into trouble with the man himself.

There's only ever been one match postponed at the Ricoh and that was when we had extreme snow which meant the surfaces around the stadium were dangerous.

The drainage and udnersoil heating at the ground is good.

 

[Birdwell Blade]

Darren Bond. Darren bastard Bond.

Is that him who used to wear the headband?

 

[Birdwell Blade]

I thought Lampard had got the job. Have I missed summat? I’m not much of a SSN or social media watcher, I mainly look on here

 

[Birdwell Blade]

I can’t predict this one. I don’t know who plays for Coventry any more because they seem to have lost all their best players. I just think we’re thin on the ground ourselves at the moment and we would probably be happy with a draw. I just don’t know. Then again, I thought that before Blackburn and we smashed em really.

The forecast for the area is nowhere near bad enough to postpone an event

 

[Birdwell Blade]

Have we sold out btw?

 

[Birdwell Blade]

On lookout for an extra 2 tickets for tomorrow if anyones got spares. Would be really appreciated, can meet anywhere near ground as driving tomorrow and can transfer money tonight or bring cash tomorrow. For two young Blades kids who have just had a family bereavement, I’d like to take them with us. Message me if any available please, even if just one spare.

Hope you get sorted for the kids pal

Got one to pick up en route. One more would be great. Things you do for pals eh!

Have we sold out btw?

Strange one , sold out was showing early in the week , then around 50 odd tickets appeared on the site Thursday . Not sure if these have all gone .

 

[Sky Blues]

Should be 3 points to yourselves today. Other than losing Robins we are also without Wright for a few months. Our other strikers are all firing blanks. Our season is over already unless things change drastically. But we do still have some good players. Other than not scoring enough our defence keeps making stupid mistakes. You will get chances to score.

I just hope for an entertaining game and hope we don't lose by too many.

There were 30 or so returns still left for sale but the club has a cut off date and time to stop selling them.
