Rob Beckett Coventry: Comedian spotted in stands at CBS Arena for match against West Brom
Comedian Rob Beckett was spotted in the stands watching Coventry vs West Brom today.
Championship leaders Coventry City stormed back from 2-0 down to beat 10-man West Bromwich Albion in an exhilarating Midlands derby at the CBS Arena. Coventry were unperturbed and continued to create opportunities, one of which ended with Josh Eccles heading home an inviting Tatsuhiro Sakamoto cross to make it 2-1 at the interval.
Even comedian Rob Beckett was there for all the action. One Coventry fan said on X: “Even Rob Beckett knows that Cov are massive”.
It is unclear why Beckett was at the stadium today. According to reports the comedian is a big Arsenal fan.
Ellis Simms levelled with close-range header and Victor Torp's beautifully controlled volley bounced down and past keeper Josh Griffiths to earn the three points. Coventry will now face Middlesbrough away next week.
