Coventry City manager Mark Robins expressed cautious optimism following the Sky Blues’ thrilling comeback victory over Luton Town, hoping it signals a turning point for the season. Robins is keen for the win to serve as a catalyst, yet he urged players and fans alike to remain grounded, warning that young squads can sometimes mistakenly believe they’ve “cracked it” too early.
Reflecting on Coventry’s season so far, Robins noted that their current league position may not accurately reflect their capabilities. He pointed to the “fine margins” that often define the Championship, suggesting that both Coventry and Luton could easily have been eight points better off. The comeback, he said, demonstrated the team’s resilience and ability to stick to their game plan, even when trailing by two goals.
Robins intends to give his squad a brief rest before gearing up for their next game against Middlesbrough. He highlighted the importance of picking up as many points as possible before the international break, especially as Coventry is “playing catch-up.” He also emphasized the need to learn from recent experiences, so that any future setbacks don’t drag on. Overall, he was pleased with the team’s quality, resilience, and the support they received, hoping it sets the tone for upcoming fixtures.
