    but the great thing as a proper football fan is that you don't t know what could happen the next season, or the one after that. I'm sure Coventry fans werent expecting a push for top 2 after having to groundshare this season and selling a fair few players.

    That is a very good thought. Bring on 2020/21. It's the hope that kills you. I will be pleased (in a way) when our relegation is confirmed. Struber must have qualities otherwise our owners would not have pursued him so vigorously. Let's see what he can do over a full season where he is not playing catch up.

    To be fair though they also said that Stendel was the 3rd best coach in Europe for their model, the other two been Klopp and Pep. Never backed him and got rid after less than 2 years.

    Once Struber was appointed they said he’s been a long term target and they fought hard to get their man, I just don’t get it. I don’t believe a word they say.

    Once relegation is confirmed I’ll be surprised if Struber isn’t sacked.

    I mean, whilst I am not defending the actions of the board entirely, Conway clearly said this tongue in cheek.

    If he's even here next season. I wouldn't bet on it personally.

    I admire your optimism but how we fair will depend on summer sales and I am not optimistic at all on that one.
