[AFCCOVENTRY]

Need something special to get a goal. Wright hasn’t even got on the team bus today.

Ref couldn’t wait to blow there. They’re going to shithouse their way to a 0-0 here

 

[Winny the Bish]

Ref ignoring a foul on Sheaf because he wanted to blow the half time whistle instead. Brilliant.

 

[Domo]

Big rest here. Go big or go home in the next 45.

We're so much better than them

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

People will think I'm mental, but get Eccles on in place of Sheaf. I'd say Allen given how he controlled the game a few weeks ago, but think we need Eccles' physicality in this game.

 

[Nick]

Go 2 up top. Get the crosses in

 

[Tommo1993]

Sheaf being caught doing too much almost every time.

 

[chiefdave]

Ref has been pretty good this half

Sack the ref.

Fucking blind ref!!

ref has been shit

Refs a credulous fool

 

[ccfcchris]

Well I think we've done well. We've grown into the game quietened the crowd and come very close several times. We can win this.

 

[The Philosopher]

We need to hook Sheaf off at half time. On a booking and a clumsy tackler. Plus, opponents have worked out that he cannot keep the ball if pressed.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Ha ha so funny they have heated our changing room, next season we should say they have to use a temporary changing room and put they miles away and tiny.

How does Don Goodman get work he is terrible and couldn’t be more biased.

Ref ignoring a foul on Sheaf because he wanted to blow the half time whistle instead. Brilliant.

He wasn't going to give it anyway.

 

[Marty]

Game lacking in quality so far, exciting end to end stuff though, bet Sheff Utd are pissing themselves laughing watching this. Probably started printing up the promotion shirts all ready.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

We’ve got Haji Wright-Phillips tonight, get him off for Simms

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Not the best game for Rudoni to have a 5/10

 

[Skybluecol]

Overall we've been slow and our passing has been poor but we're still the better team imo
Only way we'll lose this is by making a mistake or continue to be slow and shit passing

 

[Gint11]

Decent half from us. Dominated from 25 mins onwards. Wright not in the game though and Tats has been superb. Need to keep the pressure up. A goal from us and I think these wilt

 

[Jamesimus]

Decent half, if a bit risky, but I guess we have to be. Missing that clinical touch. The lads are trying hard and look up for it at least.

Car park C in a porta cabin?

 

[Shannerz]

First twenty minutes awful, but after that much the better side. Unlucky that one of the half chances didn't fall more kindly, and some poor decision making (again) in the final third.

Also, I really fucking wish that they let you watch football without commentary when you have to watch on tv. It's absolutely awful.

 

[shmmeee]

People will think I'm mental, but get Eccles on in place of Sheaf. I'd say Allen given how he controlled the game a few weeks ago, but think we need Eccles' physicality in this game.

Eccles gets sent off in this game

 

[jordan210]

We need everyone to push up 5 yards. And maybe Haj and to do something

 

[TomRad85]

Can't agree with the opinion of many, think we've handled the occasion ok and really quietened the crowd. They'll sit deeper and deeper and chances will come.
Haji and Sheaf have been fucking shite though.

 

[RoysterE17]

Need grimes to be part of midfield and not part of the back 3!! It will help open up the game more....if we nicked a goal that half would of been better. Something is needed to break these lot down!

 

[stupot07]

EMC has been so poor with the ball at his feet, so clumsy

He often is. His 6 game purple patch was based on scoring a few goals by arriving in the box well. He has a good song though.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Peak SBT innit. But I think the ref has been conned several times. That's probably more on their pathetic players than the ref though, tbf.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Get sheaf off and throw Jamie on

 

[stevefloyd]

I'll be honest people, I don't get the Haji hate. He's one of the only players who can create a goal from fuck all.

Tell him that then because he's been fucking shocking

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

Go 2 up top. Get the crosses in

Which of our not great strikers are we gonna put up top? Lethargic simms, BTA who couldn't finish a mcflurry or Bassette who buzzes but doesn't ever finish.

 

[CovveeBreak]

So bonus is it's a way more open game then at the CBS. Not by much, but enough to matter.

We're also creating chances, which is a positive.

However, we still are a bit pedestrian even when it opens up - need to be way more direct.

Haji Wright playing like a man all ready to leave in the summer.

Tatus and EMC at about 6.5/10's and we need them on 9's for this second half.

p.s. Mayenda is terrifying every time he is on the ball

 

[Captain Dart]

Not one Sunderland player has gone to ground holding their head, funny it happened ever so often in the first leg.

 

[PVA]

We can do this, Sunderland are struggling when we move the ball quickly and the crowd will get anxious soon.

Need some help from the ref though.

Also whoever plays CF in this formation just looks lost, isolated and generally poor. I don't think it's necessarily a personnel thing, it seems to be systemic.

 

[Boicey]

We desperately need a proper centre forward.
Get lots of balls in the box, we need a goal hanging hard man to do the business.

 

[TomRad85]

Ref couldn’t wait to blow there. They’re going to shithouse their way to a 0-0 here

Not sure I could handle that MvE moment being the winner.

 

[Tommo1993]

Haji Adebola tonight. The completely off form Adebola.

He’s being a total pussy again. Had a tussle with O’Nien and that’s it, he’s ready to go home.
