Last updated : 17 November 2008 By Covsupport News Service
The Ricoh Arena may not be helping the Sky Blues home form says City boss Chris Coleman.

Speaking to the Coventry Observer, Coleman who admitted that the arena was one of the best in the division said: ''Teams like coming to the Ricoh Arena to play and it can be a burden on us because it can be quiet and the players feel the brunt of that.

''We are the home team and sometimes we suffer because we like to pass it and it can seem that we are going nowhere and the fans like to see us attack.

''Our supporters have had nothing to cheer about for so long and they want success yesterday and who can blame them.

''We have got to make sure we go out and put in our best shot and if the fans see that they will appreciate it.

''Sometimes,the Ricoh is quiet and maybe it is because we are not attacking, but we are looking at the bigger picture We want to get points and if we can get it in the fashion we want, great, but if we have to grind out a result it is the same for me.''
