    they at least caused them to drop 2 points. We need to avoid defeat , at least, on sunday. Hopefully Norwich will do the business over Bournemouth too.

    Avoiding defeat would be great had Reading lost but I'd go all out for the win now. Win Sunday and it will add to their misery.

    Faint hope is the worst to lose.

    Takes the pressure off us if we win we go 7 points clear with 4 games left and a better goal difference if we **** it up now we don't deserve the play offs.

    I'm happy with a draw. It means a draw for us is decent, a win is great, and even if we lose it's not a disaster.

    Still think 2 more wins should do it mathematically 3 will definitely do it now. Even a win and couple of draws I think will be enough as I can’t see Reading getting more than 74 points.

    Win the next two and we are at least 7 points clear with 9 to play for!

    Coventry are gonna be no push over, when you consider they are they are fighting to survive. It's often said tht a wounded animal is at it's most dangerous. We need to be totally proffesional and ruthless on sunday.

    Totally agree..thought in the 1st 15 minutes of the Wednesday game we were going to paste em....once we failed to score they grew in confidence and caught us at our own game...
    Bit more thought on cross or final ball and we would have done em. same will apply on Sunday..

    Coventry need one more win to be confident of safety I think but a draw would be OK for them. They may well in fact have enough points already but no one would rely on that in case Rotherham do manage to win a couple of their games in hand
