Might be looking back at Norwich a couple of seasons ago. They made the decision pretty early on (albeit after getting thrashed by Colchester) to dump Gunn for Lambert and haven't looked back since. Not sure coventry have to squad to do better than they currently are though..................................
He's been a dead man walking for a while - always had that haunted look about him when interviewed on the TV (as well as looking a bit uncomfortable and sweaty).
It just looks like a form of torture towards the bloke from an outsiders prospective. He took them down last season. They give him all pre-season to presumably organise and trade in the transfer market for life in L1 and then bin him as it gets started.
I can see Coventry City getting in real trouble tbh...real club threatening trouble. They are on a downward spiral with no signs of being able to arrest the slide atm. It's a feeling all too familiar to us.

It's text book bad Chairmanship really. If the owners/board weren't confident in him they should have binned him out at the end of last season at the very latest. I don't like to see managers sacked, but you are going to see the benefit of it it's surely better to be decisive and do it early? I suppose it worked for Norwich with Paul Lambert, but the Gus Poyet/Chris Powell model would seem to be a more likely way to succeed imo.
I know a guy who supports Covo and he is at his wits end. The club is a complete basket case, with totally inept management and it is also saddled with the burden of an unsustainable rent for a stadium they no longer own. They have serious downward momentum and must be a prime candidate for administration in the absence of a takeover.
To think that they had something like 30 years in the top flight, running from the Jimmy Hill era.

Just another long line of former established Premier League clubs to drop into the 3rd tier. And though never established but been in the prem on 4 different occassions and never survived either of them is it the turn of that lot from SE25to be next?
I thought he would get the tin tack at the end of last season - why they wait until now to do it (without even losing a game in three, yes three), who knows. They must have some proper muppets in charge; it's no mystery they are where they are then!
Agree with the comments on here about his 'haunted' look. He might as well have been wearing a hat with the word 'doomed' on it when appearing in interviews, because that's how he came across!

I went to the Ricoh a couple of years ago - even stayed the night there in the hotel - have to say it was all a bit soulless
Silver: Sheridan
Bronze: ?
Not half as terrified as Terry Connor though!
