They are flying and look like a shoe in for playoffs at least to me.
Hope they peeked too early.
I'd agree...have a little peek at the PO positions, realise they've never been in them and fade away. Think Coventry peaked when they won the FA Cup in 87, with Trevor Peake in the side |

Doubt they'll keep McGoldrick, guess it depends what happens in January.
They also have big financial problems. |

I'm guessing Geography is not one of your strong points. Either that or you have a car capable of warp speed  |

I'm guessing Geography is not one of your strong points. Either that or you have a car capable of warp speed After the Northampton game I had to pick my missus up in Milton Keynes. I ended up driving north up the M1 instead of south! Turned off for the M45, nearly into Coventry (cause you can't turn around at the junction!) back up to the M1 and down to MK! Took around 30 minutes. So yes, geography (or navigation) not a strong point and I did reach warp speed at times |

Its an hour away so still not to far to travel So (3x) more than 20 mins then? It does show what kind if support they could get with a successful team. To be honest wasn't impressed with how many they brought to Town. Didn't bring enough to open the bank, that said neither did Sheff Utd. |

It does go to show the difference in size between Leeds & Sheff Utd as clubs.
Leeds sold out both times on a Tuesday night against us in League 1

True. But then more of own showed up too. Think most would agree that Leeds are a bigger club/draw than Sheffield United.

Interesting that Posh...though Wednesday did have a crowd pushing 40,000 last season in league 1.
I believe that Leeds are the bigger all round club due to Southern based fans on away matches.
Wednesday are a massive club and i reckon they hold there own home and away matched up with Leeds.
Agree about Sheff Utd though.

Comparing Wednesday to United is similar to comparing Town to Marine!
