Thanks Coventry Arena train station is right next to the ground. 13.56 from Coventry station takes 7 minutes. Return train times are 16.50 or 17.50. I think that the 16-50 doesn’t stop at the ground - so the first one is 17-50

£71 for the lad & I £30 petrol £20 beers £20 food £9 for bloody Starbucks £150 for second-tier football. I absolutely love Stoke, but I mean, COME OFF IT!! You park for free? Coventry is one of the few grounds in the country where I really can’t find a free parking place.

That’s usually around a tenner.

You choose to have the beer and expensive food/Starbucks… Stoke also offer free coach travel. Don’t get the point Each to their own mate. Don’t use bus, arrive late if traffic is bad, eg. Cardiff away last season, missed 15 mins and the only away goal in 4 matches, after 4.5 hours journey. Thats why I tend to drive.

Pub’s tomorrow? Dhillon’s brewery next to the ground seems most popular. Home & away fans and shows the midday footie.

Coventry is one of the few grounds in the country where I really can’t find a free parking place. Free parking available at 2 locations. First at the Bull & Anchor (a nice pub too) and second at the brewery near the ground, Byatts also good beer.

The station used to be detached from the town and now is pedestrianised. Easy reach of several ok pubs incl Wetherspoons ( Stella £2.90 !) I am heading to Byatts brewery v near the ground after breakfast in town.

I parked next to the Bull & Anchor pub last time, had a pint in there and walked (took about 15 mins), dead easy pub was decent enough as well......

Massive tomorrow
The kind of games we've been losing since we were in this division. When we look like we can grab the coat tails of the play off pack, so often we blow it.
Seems Robins is covering his team a bit here, they could all have monkey leprosy but not going to change anything.

Spot on, if we’re going to kick on this season this is the type of game we find out. 7 points from next 3 games and we’re in business

Oh dear.... we beat Sunderland, Leeds & Boro, draw with Bardiff, next up Coventry who have lost their last 4 and now have illness in the camp. On current form this is one we SHOULD win, but we all know what might happen.

I will say, from what I've seen, they're not playing badly but they're struggling for goals. Lost their two best players and their replacements haven't particularly fired yet. Hopefully Callum O'Hare isn't back - looked a real talent prior to his long term injury.

Coventry are a good side in a false league position.
Mind games as mentioned above.
It's going to be a hard game.
Massive for us , if we can get a result.

A good enough side, yep and going through a bad patch but means little in this league. Be nice to break into that top 8. Robins under a bit of pressure and taking the heat off himself and the players there This and QPR are 2 great opportunities to push into that pack

Bit of a banana skin this
Knowing Stoke as I do, I think Id rather them be coming into this game on a good run, rather than the run theyve been on
We dont have a bad record there mind

Good side. Lost a couple of good players last season. Not on a great run, one we ususlly wave a white flag to.
Im hoping our little run we are on carries on and i thonk he will make a couple of changes, be nice to see junho start this with burger and pearson behind him. Start haks also give vidigal some minutes second half.
Id go with,
Bonham
Hoever Mcnally Rose, if clark is fit then clark Stevens
Pearson Burger Junho
Leris Mmaee/Wesley/Lowe Haks
