Carl Baker has issued the following statement following Coventry City manager Steven Pressley taking the club captaincy off him and giving it to Reda Johnson.

Baker wrote: "Just want to say a massive thanks to all the fans who have supported me over the years and got behind me as captain.

"When Mark Robbins handed me the armband I can honestly say it was one of the proudest moments of my career I took full responsibility and have given 100% to this club and always will.

"Obviously I'm gutted to have it taken of me but I have a lot of respect for the gaffa and club so accept their decision.

"I still have a year on my contract contract and will honour that and give my all as always for the badge until I'm told otherwise."
