Dave Hockaday, who is Coventry City development coach, was impressed with the midfielder’s display saying: “I thought he ran the game in the middle of the park. He picked up everything and just played it simple.
“He played some good long balls and some simple short balls so I don’t think he could have done any more given the conditions.”
There’s no coincidence that the defensive midfielder ended up at City because he is well known by the club’s development squad and first team coach Dave Hockaday who was the youth coach at Watford.
Bangura made 16 top flight appearances for the Hornets before joining Blackpool ahead of joining Tony Adams’s Gabala in Azerbaijan.
Recently, he was drafted in by Hockaday when he was manager of Forest Green Rovers, whom he left by mutual consent a year ahead of the end of his contract last August after a difficult time with two serious knee injuries.
