The team is going through another bad patch; fingers crossed they can get a stable future & turn themselves around.

25,000 tickets have been sold to Coventry 'fans' for the semi-final. Funny how they turn out when the team's doing well: https://coventryobserver.co.uk/news/coventry-news-sky-blues-sold-over-25000-tickets-for-fa-cup-semi-final/

Interesting issue with the off side ruling.

The whole foot (hence the leg, and thus body) has to be adjudged over the direct line to the opponent's (last) defender in order to be ruled off side.

The computer gizmo showed quite clearly the Coventry forward was no way over that line. In fact, he barely touched that line.

A formal legal appeal by Coventry is being made to the F.A.
