We probably need to get over this FA Cup mania and move on. We massively over-performed. We’re not in the hat anymore. We have Dover to consider. Or we can write off the league and just revel in the glory a little longer (which I don’t mind). Personally, Bernie, I will revel in it until about 2030...at least!

Irony. Well on reflection only 3 players had good games in my opinion. Sole , Berkeley-Agyepong and Reynolds. The others were off their best levels. Coventry had 4 standout players in the starting line up. Kelly , Simms ,Palmer and Sheaf. Godden and O'Hare were impressive off the Bench. Berkeley-Agyepong is fast becoming my favourite player.

I only bought the last physical copy due to so many articles.
Wouldn’t bother for a loss, however heroic and upbeat they spin it.

Was it just me or did anyone else feel that the Coventry building society arena experience was way way too corporate? It felt like being at the Exel or O2 that had a pitch put in to host a football match and the corporate mantras from the huge tv screen were constant and irritating right up to the refs kick off whistle. Ipswich was far better as it least it felt like a football club. Thanks be to Oliver and Terry that we own our ground!

Although modern bowls are criticised, I disagree about the atmosphere.
Far more home decibels from Coventry fans than Ipswich and the noise doesn’t escape.
Totally agree about owning your own ground and being in control of your destiny.

Agreed. When that noisy corner at Cov sang it was loud. Ipswich weren’t so. But then look back to the MK Dons cup tie. Great stadium, but only the Stones making all the noise

Seemed a bit disjointed at Coventry but that might have been because the drummer didn’t maintain a consistent speed but kept going faster and faster.

OUR atmosphere at Ipswich, sure. Coventry seemed to be louder than Ipswich though. Maybe where I was sat…..or stood

Possibly - pre-match, in the dungeon by the bar, Mrs Headstone (who goes to matches about once a year) got very excited by the drumming and chanting. She took a video and I can hear her laughing. I didn't laugh until the drummer dropped his sticks.

They were also heavily on it the night before.
