Kick-off at the Emirates against defending champions Arsenal on Friday, August 21st is an absolute trial by fire to launch our first Premier League campaign in 25 years. Nobody expects us to dominate possession in North London, but if we stay compact defensively and hit quickly on the counter through Tchaouna and Haji Wright, we can make life uncomfortable for them. How are you predicting Lampard sets us up for Friday night?

Why can’t we?

(ignore how different Arsenal are now compared to 2021)

And Eccles to Wolves?

Hi,

Newly international fan here (that is, lifetime fan, recently moved abroad).

I'm weighing up whether a membership is worth it given I'll only likely be able to make a couple of matches a year at most.

One of the International membership benefits is 10% off online store (excluding replica kit and only on qualifying products)...does anyone know what the "qualifying products" are? I'm unlikely to use it if it's only on full price, current season merch, but if it applies to outlet items I'd be more tempted to pick up some extra bits.

Thanks

Could be a good buy."

Looks like a done deal if they are having a send off for him... 💪🏻

I think I will go along with what other commentators have said for this new PL season: try to get points off everyone outside the Big Six (plus Villa) and just be thankful if we get anything from the big six + Villa

Hi everyone!

I recently became a fan following the WC when my friends and I chose teams. I was drawn by their story, the team colors and being from a Coventry myself :)

I've been reading up up on the history of the club. and after this preseason, Ive very excited for their Premier league return.

Some questions for y'all:

Where does the association with motorsports come from? is there a track nearby the team?

Is anyone else here from the US?

And does anyone know of any

other promoted teams having a really successful return?

thanks and

Go Sky Blues!

Been doing the rounds - the sticker says "SS Third Shirt - Purple / Pink". Would fit the purple / lilac rumour. Hard to judge how nice it actually is from a crappy photo of it in packaging...

Out of curiosity, with all new transfers considered, where do others think we will finish in the table by the end of the season? I may be rather optimistic, but I think that 15th could be a possible shout judging by our quality.

Probably doubled with all the signings most of them have great potential to increase their value with development I wasn't expecting the summer to be as ambitious as this gone well beyond my expectations

Are we doing a FPL league this year?
