Coventry City could find themselves in an injury crisis as they prepare for the FA Cup game at home to Crewe Alexandra on Saturday. The Leeds defeat saw Eddy Johnson fracture his toe, Dele Adebola pick up a groin injury and Stuart Giddings limping off due to a suspected broken ankle.

With Peter Reid not speaking to the media,Adrian Heath told the press conference after the Leeds game: "It was a disappointing first half from us and although we improved in the second half, we were beaten by the better team.

"They were fitter and stronger than us, but with the week we've had that's not surprising. "We've had a flu bug go right through the club and six of the players out there today have been poorly."
