Coventry

Beat boro 2-4 and now 10 points clear at the top of the championship.

We know how tough that league can be but they look miles better than anyone so far. 12 wins and 4 draws from 17.

 

[The Butcher]

Good job we done them in last season, fro sky blues. Stoke will be up with them soon.

 

[Ferryhill Exile]

Wonder if anyone struggling in the PL will take a punt on Frank.

Boro were the better team tonight, but Coventry were just clinical. Conway missed an absolute sitter at 2-2.

 

[Oatmeal]

Managed to keep the same team as last season aswell fair play to them

Surely not?! The vardy regen??

 

[Ned Land]

I don’t particularly like the club but fair play and it’d make the prem league a bit more interesting with different teams.

If anyone hasn't seen the goals definitely watch the highlights when they get posted on YouTube to see the first Simms goal, ridiculous finish

 

[cluffy]

Frank is doing a great job.

Six easy points for Grant and the lads next season.

Hopefully a pathetic relegation next season.

That play off defeat has spurred them on, like our Crystal Palace defeat. I fully expected Sheff United to be like our Charlton play off final losers and kick on, instead they've ended up moping about and have no chance of promotion.

Leadbitter?

A lot of comments get regularly churned out about who was the better side in the play offs but, as I said on here a few months ago, our outrageous form and goalscoring goes to show what an absolute masterclass is was by Sunderland and RLB in both legs.

We've scored 47 goals since we played in May. In just 17 games.

To further back the point, we've scored 25 goals in 9 away.

As both our seasons continue, it goes to show how much Sunderland deserved it.

Lampard became a bit of a joke figure before this Coventry job and I could never understand why. Criminally underrated as a manager imo.

However there is always one team that runs away with it initially and then drop off the pace so anything can happen yet.

The league is dreadful this year. Comosre the promotion challengers with what we had to contend with last season.

He’ll ultimately be judged on how he does in the PL if he gets them there. We’ve seen teams like Southampton 2 years ago blow the championship away then barely win a game.

Frank inherited a good squad built for buttons by Mark Robins, and has kept them together

 

[Springwell Mackem]

Reminds me of when we lost in the 98 play-offs, then dominated the league the season after.

Why would he go ? Give it 6 months and he'll be there, with bigger salary.
