Thorn Wants To Stop High Scoring Posh

Last updated : 15 December 2011 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City manager Andy Thorn has urged his side to be solid against a Peterborough side which has scored forty goals so far this season.

Of Peterborough's 40 goals scored this season, 25 have been scored at London Road, but they have also conceded more goals at home than any other team with the exception of Nottingham Forest. Both sides have conceded 19 home goals so far this season and Coventry will be aiming to add to this total.

Thorn admitted, “We know what they are about and know they are capable of scoring goals. It’s important that we are solid, first and foremost, because Saturday’s goal was another preventable one.

“We know what they are about and we have just got to go to Peterborough and play. We’ve got to be bold and brave. Hopefully it will be an entertaining game but we have got to go there to win the match.”
