I love that our oldest player is 26, it's important we play these good youngsters we have to get them experience at this level.
Realistically one of them will be sold pretty soon to help fund the club going forward but it makes me really proud to see so many youngsters being given a chance.
I think it will be a draw but you never know with us we could rip into them and score a few, in my dreams a bit but if you don't have hope it can make every Saturday a bit of a chore

Every week our games kick off late, especially at home. Minor annoyance of mine.

Definitely an opportunity for homophobic chants here - the Coventrian should have turned up

According to Talksport their left back is 'makeshift.'

I’m hoping Drysdale was being cautious a minute ago as opposed to having no pace! He looks nervous but confident he’ll grow into it.

Shipley and Westbrooke pushing very high and we’re getting the ball forward quickly.

They are struggling with our movement; we’ve been here many times befor this season but it’s surely only a matter of time.

So much for boring negative line up hey?

Absolutely tonnes of space out there today. We're dominating on the ball but they've looked neat on the counter attack. Shipley has been a bit loose with his first touch and had a couple of half chances he could have done better with.

Rose going forward on the overlap on the right a lot. Good to see but must keep concentration with others covering

They have well worked set pieces and we’ve had two warnings now

Just lacking a bit of intensity. Needs to be a bit slicker in possession, the build up is too slow. Always feel we let these first halves at home drift a bit rather than really taking the game by the scruff of the neck. The longer this game goes on, the more set pieces they will buy and they will be a threat from them all game.
