Branston Pickle 3,656 Posted February 24, 2009 Extra time with a few injuries would do us nicely. I''ve always disliked Coventry so hope they lose, but there are probably +s and -s for us whether it is a win or defeat: if they win their minds will almost certainly be on the upcoming Chelsea game, if they lose they may feel that bit more knackered...

Adam 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Believe me we will not be taking it lightly, Coleman said, forget Chelsea next week we have two bigger games against Norwich and Sheffield United. I am the pessimist but we are playing superbly at the mo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
