Coventry manager Chris Coleman is relishing a busier pre-season schedule for his side.

The Sky Blues have arranged friendlies at Nuneaton, Hinckley, Northampton, Huddersfield, Dunfermline and Wrexham.

"We`ll be busy but that`s what pre-season is all about," Coleman told the club`s official website. "We`ll probably have a couple more games than we did last year.

"It`s all about getting the players fit and prepared. Last year we travelled a lot, we were away three years. We wanted to mix it up and stay closer to home. There`s a few more pencilled in, we just need to nail them down.

"Last season our problem was that we fell away after February. There are lots of reasons for it and I`m here to change them."
