I class Coventry as the big game to be honest, they spent many years in the top flight, won an FA Cup, have a teriffic stadium and a bigger support. Nice try Wiz but you really shouldn't flatter yourselves
I've only printed a factual report of what's listed on your club's own official site under Pre-Seasons Fixtures ,I do think Bbd still believes in the little people,he should believe in his own club's info... Coventry are a good club with great facilities,but they are 3rd tier and do represent a challenge to a lower 4th tier side such as yourself...
Of course they consider Coventry to be a big game - we play these sort of teams every week so get used to it - where is Fleetwood??
