Important That We Give The Fans Something To Cheer - Thorn

Last updated : 09 April 2011 By Covsupport News Service

Andy Thorn has expressed the importantance of not letting down the Coventry City supporters making the journey today to Pride Park where the Sky Blues take on Derby County in a vital game.

Thorn was more concerned about not letting the fans down rather than Robbie Savage whose antics last season saw Jordan Clarke sent off.

Speaking to the CT, Thorn said:"I haven't even thought about that. "I won't be spending all my time talking about Robbie Savage and that is no disrespect to him because he's had a good career.

"I think we are sensible enough and have got enough experience in the team to cope with anything like that - it's all about us and how we play, not about Robbie Savage or anybody else.

"I've told the boys it will be like a cup tie atmosphere and a terrific day so it is important we turn up. I know we taking a lot of fans over there and hopefully we can give them something to cheer about again."
