    Joel Latibeaudiere started as Jamaica opened their Concacaf Nations League campaign with a three two win over Guatemala in Kingston, Renaldo Cephas settling it in stoppage time after Kasey Palmer scored one and made another and Oscar Santis twice put Guatemala in front. There was no news out of Coventry City itself, and no Premier League football during the international break. Five games into the season the Sky Blues have one win and three points, with one goal scored and ten conceded, and CoventryLive argued at the weekend that the underlying numbers are closer than that: expected goals of getting on for five against the single goal scored, and Jack Rudoni and Taiwo Awoniyi both inside the division's top thirty for big chances missed. Newcastle United visit the Coventry Building Society Arena on Monday 12 October at 8pm, with the ticket window for supporters with previous purchase history opening at 10am on Wednesday 30 September. Play Up, Sky Blues!

    Goalkeeper Oliver Dovin is back at Coventry City from his loan at Leyton Orient for treatment on a shoulder injury, picked up towards the end of Orient's EFL Trophy game against Arsenal Under 21s on 15 September. Nigeria came from behind to beat Madagascar two one in Africa Cup of Nations qualifying, debutants George Ilenikhena and Moses Usor scoring, with Taiwo Awoniyi coming off the bench. England Under 21s beat Kazakhstan four two at Molineux, Will Lankshear scoring on his debut, with Stephen Mfuni in the squad on a first call up at that level. Yann Gboho is still waiting on a first Ivory Coast cap. Newcastle United visit the Coventry Building Society Arena on Monday 12 October at 8pm, a category A fixture, with the ticket window for supporters with previous purchase history opening at 10am on Wednesday 30 September. Play Up, Sky Blues!

    Newcastle United captain Dan Burn is aiming to return for the trip to Coventry City on Monday 12 October, according to Andy Turner’s report for CoventryLive, which carries Burn’s own comments to Newcastle’s matchday programme. Burn rolled his ankle in training before Newcastle’s opening day draw with Liverpool, is out of his cast and building strength, and is not expected to go straight back into the starting eleven. There was no fresh news out of Coventry City itself, and no Sky Blues football until the international break ends. Joel Latibeaudiere is with Jamaica, who host Honduras in Kingston on Monday night local time, and Taiwo Awoniyi is with a Nigeria squad away in Guinea-Bissau on Tuesday. There is nothing further from the club on Oliver Dovin, who is being treated at Coventry for the shoulder injury announced on Friday. Play Up, Sky Blues!

    Frank Lampard on Brandon Thomas-Asante, the forward who came up through Ebbsfleet, Sutton United and Salford and who his manager says now looks every inch a Premier League player. Then the harder thing Lampard said on Monday night, which CoventryLive read as a message to the wider squad: we are a promoted team and we need everybody, and a few lads need to know that. CoventryLive put names to both sides of it, from Tatsu Sakamoto working his socks off to Loum Tchaouna and Yann Gboho not getting on at all. Simon Jordan, on talkSPORT's White and Jordan show, says Doug King deserves the same degree of adulation as the people he employs, and that he never went into the boardroom to drink their Chardonnay either. Plus the selection call building for Tottenham, with Taiwo Awoniyi's suspension served and Sidiki Cherif having taken his chance. Sources named on air: CoventryLive and talkSPORT. Every item in this episode is a press report, carried by one publisher, and is labelled as such in the audio. Play Up, Sky Blues!

    Ellis Simms has applied for a Polish passport and Poland are interested and watching, Andy Turner reports for CoventryLive on the back of reporting out of Poland. Poland's national team director Adrian Mierzejewski says Simms' documents are with the consulate and they are waiting on the passport; Polish reports say coach Kibu Vicuna, recently added to Jan Urban's staff, has been tasked with flying to England to watch him; head coach Urban told TVP Sport that Simms would be treated like anyone else once the paperwork clears, and that he is not Haaland but not some random player either. Simms, called up by England at Under-20 level and also eligible for Jamaica, qualifies for Poland through his Poland-born grandmother. He was not in the squad for Poland's three games this international break, against Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania and Sweden, which CoventryLive puts down to the documents still being processed. Liam Kitching made his Republic of Ireland debut on Sunday in a 3-0 Nations League win over Israel, playing the full 90 minutes on the left of a back three after sitting on the bench for the defeat to Kosovo on the Thursday. He qualifies through a Kildare-born grandmother. Ireland head coach Heimir Hallgrimsson said Kitching would have been in the squad in the summer had the papers been processed sooner, and called him a brilliant person, a good character and a good leader, and a left-footed centre-back Ireland do not have many of. Kitching, a Coventry player, is at Sheffield United on a season-long loan and has played every minute of their four games so far. Carl Rushworth says the shackles are off after Coventry's first win of the season at Nottingham Forest, where he supplied the ball for Jay Dasilva's winner and, by his own account, had barely a save to make. There were no new club announcements out of Coventry City for a fourth day running. The ticket window for supporters with previous purchase history opens at 10am on Wednesday 30 September for Newcastle United at the Coventry Building Society Arena on Monday 12 October, 8pm. Play Up, Sky Blues!

    Coventry City have confirmed ticket details for the away game at Tottenham Hotspur on Monday 19 October, 8pm kick-off at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with a full allocation of 3,038 tickets and one ticket per Supporter Number. The sale runs in four loyalty-point windows on Thursday 1 October: 1700+ points from 10am, 1600+ from 12pm, 1500+ from 2pm and 1400+ from 4pm, each window open for one hour 45 minutes, with unpaid baskets cleared before the next window opens. Prices are £30 adult, £25 senior and young adult (18 to 25), £18 under 18, plus a £1 booking fee per ticket, and supporters buying a ticket receive 20 loyalty points. The club says further on-sales will be communicated if tickets remain. The Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel has ruled both big decisions in Coventry's 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest correct, as reported by Andy Turner for CoventryLive. The panel supported the VAR intervention to disallow Igor Jesus' late goal 4-1, saying the attacker carelessly stepped on the heel of Caleb Yirenkyi and that it was impactful in the lead up to the goal, and ruled 5-0 that the referee's call of no penalty for a challenge by Frank Onyeka in the 85th minute was correct, the contact being below the threshold for a penalty. Across match round five the panel judged 88% of on-field referee decisions correct, and 89% across the season to date. Frank Lampard has spoken about man management at Coventry, in comments reported by Andy Turner for CoventryLive, who calls it Lampard's biggest challenge since arriving at the club. Lampard said he does not walk in every day and sing a song to the players, that they are grown ups who understand it, and that he is very big on positivity but that positivity and confidence come with work. He pointed to two of the first five fixtures being away at two of what he called the best teams in Europe and said he would not speak forever about it, that City gave everything at Arsenal, and that against Manchester City they competed and probably should have got a result. He said he is not beating the players up over nerves when many are making their Premier League debuts in their mid-20s, and that being exposed to the level is the best way for them to settle. Play Up, Sky Blues!

From the same CoventryLive round-up of the eleven Sky Blues away with their countries: Yann Gboho came off the bench in the 83rd minute for the Ivory Coast against Somalia on Tuesday and scored in the 89th in a 2-0 win; Norman Bassette scored the winner for Belgium Under-21s against a Wales Under-21 side captained by Coventry team-mate Kai Andrews, in Westerlo, where Bassette is on loan; Taiwo Awoniyi and Frank Onyeka both started and were both withdrawn at half-time as Nigeria lost 3-0 away to Guinea-Bissau on Tuesday; and Caleb Yirenkyi and Brandon Thomas-Asante lost 2-0 to the Ivory Coast and then 4-2 to Gambia from two goals up, prompting calls for the Ghana manager to go. Coventry City have unveiled a limited-edition all-pink shirt in aid of Breast Cancer Awareness, on sale online and in The Cov Store from Friday 9 October in adult and junior sizes, stock limited, with one-off auction pieces raising further funds later in the month.

    Jack Rudoni's shoulder is finally sorted after summer surgery, and he has told CoventryLive he will not call himself a Premier League player until he has solidified himself, with staying up the first job. He has also set out an England ambition, the United States route through his grandfather and father having never come about. Sidiki Cherif comes out as Coventry's most valuable player on the CIES Football Observatory's latest estimates, above the fee Coventry are reported to have paid Fenerbahce, after thirty minutes of Premier League football so far. And Taiwo Awoniyi has been talking to BBC Sport Africa about finishing a diploma aimed at football's future leaders, and about the lesson from his father that keeps taking him back to school. All of this is press reporting. Sources: CoventryLive (Andy Turner), BBC Sport Africa. Play Up, Sky Blues!
