Match Thread Coventry City vs. Burton Albion Match Thread - Friday 8th Mar (1 Viewer)

Be alright Clive Eakin told us tonight we have never lost at the Ricoh on a Friday night, 8 games apparently. Talk about the kiss of death.

Do we ever practise set pieces. I would rather us over hit them and have someone at the back to pick up the mess then constantly hit the first man

Everything we constantly do wrong we never correct, I reckon training is just a get together and no actual work

Those Burton counter attacks have pushed our defence too deep and now the gaps between our lines are too big. Now our passes are having to travel too far to go direct from defence<midfield>attack so we go wide for an easy pass and lose momentum or long and don't get anywhere near it. Then if we do get it slowly to the final 3rd they've got 9 players there waiting. Need to push it all up 15 yards and get the intensity back.

Might be time to give Bremang a try he can't do any worse than Baka

Why didn't bright shoot?

Step overs are clearly more productive

Mason has been awful tonight, and set pieces are atrocious.

Bright, great play to drive at the penalty area and over does it again. FFS

Why hasn't the ref booked the guy who just tried to kick brights legs out

Kelly and Willis alright. Everybody else very poor

You just can't be that slow to pass or shoot against a team that are working as hard as Burton to get men behind the ball.

Nearly as bad as port vale 2 years ago

Everyone 0 rating
Bayliss and davies -1

Cause he was brought down

Nick said:

Can't see anything on the bench to change it either.

Baka is winning headers, nobody near him

He has been awful. He has no presence, no strength and no desire.

If anything summed Mason up it was that, dithering so long over a throw that the ref blows for half time!

It’s only 1 nil, hopefully better 2nd half

The crowd are mental tonight and this forum is bi polar

He did in the end

Was it the same guy who should have been booked 5 mins before for taking bright down aswell

Nick said:

I mean the 5 times he could have before

True

Mason dallies when the early cross was on, ref blows for half time. We look like conceding every time they cross the half way line, getting knocked of the ball too easily, time for one of Nicks two footers.

Hard to see a comeback seeing as we just don't score goals

Playoffs were a nice pipe dream for a few days

You did notice he won the ball and raced forward didn’t you?
