Last updated : 28 August 2015 By CNS Staff

Coventry City manager Tony Mowbray has said that Monday night's Southend United have been hard to beat.

Mowbray told Keiran Crowley at this morning's press conference: "I've come across Phil Brown a few times. He's had some exciting periods in his career and he's a real footballing man. It's enjoyable in this league and I'm sure Phil is enjoying it. They're adapting OK, they've been difficult to beat so far.

"Our expectation is three points. We have to be respectful of the opposition, we have to play our game, impose it on them and hopefully the supporters will come out and are entertained by a good team showing. It's been encouraging after the difficulties at home last season to see us win our two games there.."
 
The City boss has been pleased with the level of support and said: "I think it's a huge positive, particularly seeing that bank of fans when the players walk out. It's a real boost for the players."
