The club must have known there was a chance that there could have been a power cut tonight, so why didn't they postpone it this morning?

No consideration for the Millwall fans.

You would have thought they would have had a back-up generator. They are a championship side for christs sake, dock them points.

Lampard appointed Coventry Head Coach

Excellent news for the rest of the Championship.

Read the comments, Cov fans not happy 😁🏆

[Norbert Rassragr]

They're furious. Not one I know thinks Lampard is capable of adequacy. I'll give him until next Christmas/New year. Every game will be judged.

Why ? His only season as a manager in the Championship he guided Derby in to the playoffs.

I like the first comment. It would grate pretty quickly if the media kept saying "Frank Lampards Blackburn Rovers".

FLCC it is 👍

Does Lampard know the Eton boating song ?

Oh dear. You can guess the score at the Coventry Vs Cardiff game right now.

They've equalised.

Truly cringeworthy staged intro to the players on Sky courtesy of Cov's X channel this morning.

They gave him an unenthusiastic standing ovation then Frank, who looked like he was waving at the players, launched into full touchy feely mode, "We 're all in this together no one's more important than the next man" etc

Yes they are you're the bloomin' manager!

Somewhat surreal and I thought fairly uncomfortable viewing.

Sounds really awkward and a bit like David Brent. I don't have anything to do with Twitter, but I can say it won't convince the fans.

As I type, they're losing again. At least the rugby union team are top of their table.

Yeah the whole thing was on Sky this morning, originated from their Twitter feed or X channel. I wouldn't have seen it otherwise either.

Plymouth would have a better chance staying up if they appointed Steve Kean than keeping Rooney. That's how useless he is. Another humiliation for him today and of course none of it will be his fault. Poor Plymouth but they have brought it on themselves. No wonder they beat you a few weeks back they probably got an adrenaline boost knowing they wouldn't have to listen to the idiot on touchline at their next game after being sent off.

I don't know why Lampard gets so much abuse it was the same as a player. He always seems to get a bit of disrespect. Of course Rooney has had his detractors too (mainly from being a thick thug) but how anyone can mock Lampard's managerial abilities and defend him is bizarre.

It’s started 😁😁

[moerpho]

No, Vinjay, just no. You do not get to bring up Steve fucking Kean on the day we just beat Leeds at home and the best game of the seadon. That is just evil.

Both Lampard and Rooney are…well…to put it mildly: shit. This is easily available knowledge. But you don’t bring up the dark one. You just don’t.

Are you looking at the Championship results in fear that City go down after recent results? Or will you likely change your team to whoever wins the title this year?

I thought that was me?

Just popped by in peace. I know you won’t believe me but I actually had a suspicion you’d get something today. You have the right game for Leeds and went into it on the back of some decent results. A lot of games between now and the 4th of Jan but as things stand it should be a right game.

hull paying the price for sacking the progressive rosenior and appointing a second rate german with no experience of english football🙂,ceo`s are very dangerous these days,they`ll **** your club up

Case in point, look what Coventry just did.  It will come back to hurt them.  Bit like big club sacking our guy for Rooney.  Stupid.
