IT WAS a good battling performance at Q.P.R. who as Chris Coleman said, are one of the better teams in the Championship.
I never went to the game, instead listened to it on the radio, and it sounded a cracking match, full of end to end play, with chances falling to both sides.
But Q.P.R. passed the ball about at pace, and cut through our midfield with ease at times, which is a bit of a worry, although Clingan should return soon, because we need a more experienced player in there, because it's far too lightweight I feel.

Fresh injury hits James McPake loan hope

EVERYTHING is good for me at the minute. I passed my driving test on November 5 and I just turned 18 last Thursday, so 2009 has been a big year for me.
AT half time in the game against Palace I was not pleased with my afternoon.Yet again City moved forward with a total lack of conviction.
Keiron Westwood had to make a couple of smart saves to limit the scoreline to just one nil down.Our first effort on goal was in the forty fourth minute
Yet we scored in the forty seventh and what followed was a totally commited energetic flowing second half performance. I was delighted to see that,and in the end we deserved a point and might have won the game

Gregor Rioch happy despite Coventry City Under-18s defeat
COVENTRY CITY under-18s suffered a third straight defeat but team boss Gregor Rioch was far from unhappy about the performance of his young charges.
With Coventry City in the process of offering Leon Best an improved contract. It's time for City to give him a deadline along with the offer, sign by Christmas or they will look to move him on in the January transfer window.
If Leon wishes not to sign that is his prerogative but he should have the decency to accept a move away in the transfer window, in the same way Jay Tabb did, and earn City a transfer fee in the process.
A POINT against the Palace was about right I thought, although we could have done with all three, but the second half performance was a lot better than the first, and I never thought I'd be saying this, but Michael Mcindoe had a good game.
He's been getting some stick lately, but he showed on saturday, he has got it in him, so let's hope he can keep it up, and do it on a regular basis.
You can't beat good old fashioned wing play, by that I mean, a player who can beat his defender, and put in lots of decent crosses, just like the one for Leon Best's goal.
