Micky on Southend win

Micky Adams felt his Coventry City side rode their luck at times in Friday’s 3-2 win at Southend United.

‘We were fortunate to get the points because we were under severe pressure,’ he said after Dele Adebola’s late winner.

‘We’ve struggled away – our last win away was at Hull where we adopted the same system we played tonight.

‘Some of the comments people have levelled at us have hurt and we have responded and tonight kept going, that’s the pleasing thing.’
