Another deserved win tonight and up against a good side.
Coventry are much better than Swansea, and will probably be at least top half this season. They'd drawn a lot but not lost before tonight.
We fully deserved the win and it caps off a great few days

Siopis good a good engine
But grant put in a great shift tonight also

Great win. Should have been more comfortable. Did it without Rambo which shows we have depth. Grant starting to show some form. Siopis is going to be a fan’s favourite. Played some good stuff at times and we’re starting to look like a decent team. If we’re going to do anything this season, we’ve really got to stop letting teams back into the game through dropping deep and sloppy play. Some really poor play leading up to their second. Lots of positives though.

I agree that we drop off when winning and keep letting teams equalise or nearly nicking it nearly threw it away again tonight 3 1 up sitting back 10 mins to go no good
need to sort it to final whistle stay up the other end of the pitch midfield and strikers need to press there middle or any team we play
having 10 sitting in the box will not work lettung them run at us or put crosses in.

Siopis is an absolute find and bulut has to be given credit for his management and knowing who he wants for his players especially in this league.

Siopis is unbelievable, love watching him play!

We definitely sat back behind the halfway line for a spell at 2-1. Even with everyone back it seemed easier for them to plau through us, particularly down the right. When the subs came and and we started to press again we looked more solid. Thought we saw the last 5 mins or well after they pulled it back 3-2.

3-2 flattered them. First half we dominated their first goal was totally against the run of play.
I like Alnwick but he was poor for their 2nd goal which they didn't deserve either.
Point being the scoreline doesn't reflect our dominance. Cut out the stupid mistakes and we have a very good team.

Mark Robins has spent 30 million this season , 16 million on two centre forwards Haji Wright 9m and Ellis Sims 7m and are a good team
Just to put things into perspective Erol Bulut has done a remarkable job rebuilding the team/squad considering our transfer ban and shoestring budget
I know its early days but it's an impressive turnaround compared with last season
The feel good factor is back and is all down to the ever improving performances of the team and long may it continue

I didn't realise Coventry spent that much. I don't rate Coventry after tonight, maybe they had that key midfielder out. I think we'll discover more about our side after the trip to Sunderland. Win that and we're suddenly in about the play offs. Love this league.

It was a great win. We need that striker in January. In both games we could of scored more with chances created.
It was a real shame that the Kieffer Moore deal didn't materialise.
If we can keep competing and gaining points until January and secure Keiffer we could have a great season.
I cant remember the last time that we had such strength in depth.

Misleading title.Coventry were shocking all over the pitch(godden aside).3-2 scoreline was a joke,we could of hammered them with a bit more luck in front of goal.

Disagree about the title. Coventry are a good side but we made them look ordinary.
Like I said, they hadn't lost before last night (drawn a lot) and are a much better team than Swansea.
I expect them to be around the top half by the end of the season.

I agree much better than Swansea and i also think they they will end up top half.But they were horrendous last night and city were excellent.They lost their opening game and have only won once.Their fans want Mark Robbins gone.

My opinion is they'd be stupid to get rid of Robins. Done a remarkable job under difficult circumstances, they won't get much better than him.
They'll be fine and have a good season once it gets going.

Robbins deserves time but i wasn't impressed by them last night. I think they'll finish midtable at best.
