Yes. Coventry going no where fast! Is it them that has/had the 3 year 'Operation Premiership'? Good luck with that.

Left out shit transfer record which was the big problem with us.

Did very well for a season before we got found out.

Mind you Aidy did motivate our players very well in that 1st season and made them believe we could get promoted.

I am not sure how Coventry fans will take to his style of football..even some of our fans got fed up after a wwhille when things stopped going well.

Agreed. I can see him being run out of town after no more than 6 months.

I look forward to another visit to the soulless, half full, character lacking Ricoh Arena next season, sigh.

Club and manager are made for each other TBH.

I used to live near Coventy around the time they won the FA Cup. Couldn't move for bloody 'fans' going on about how great the team was blah blah blah. Did laugh the next year when they got knocked out by Sutton United.

Their fans always used to go on about how they had one of the longest records in the top flight as well, handily failing to mention that in their 32(?) years up there, they were only safe from relegation on the last day in around 6 of those years. Including the season that Middlesbrough got docked 2 points for failing to turn up as a result of illness in the team, and CCFC still needed to win by 4 goals on the last day to survive. Oddly enough their game was delayed 15minutes by crowd trouble, so they knew exactly what they needed to do to survive.

Not that I'm obsessively bitter about Coventry (City or city) of course...
