No stand-alone match report, I’m afraid, so this MBM will have to do in that regard. Having said that, Coventry’s efforts tonight have catapulted them to the top of our Championship round-up, and in any case it’s another excuse to meet up with Mr PA Media again, our omnipresent pal of pre-match scene-setting fame. Thanks for reading this blog!

Lampard’s opposite number John Eustace speaks to Sky: “I thought we were excellent tonight … really pleasing to come to the best team in the league and perform like we did … real good signs for us … really disappointed to lose … the three goals we conceded were really sloppy, really poor goals … we could have scored a couple [more] ourselves if we’d been more clinical … we have to keep learning and building … we showed great character … were dominant in the first half … in the second we were under pressure … you saw the players they were able to bring on … top players at this level … we have six big games coming up, which we’ll be ready for.”
