Match Thread Coventry City vs. Rochdale Match Thread - Saturday 16th Nov (2 Viewers)

Oh great, Bennett on comms again

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

2 more injuries and Sky Blue Sam would be on the bench.

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

Well I DID not know Dave Bennett also did boxing commentary. Speechless.

Is it pick a captain from a hat?

we should have 11 captains

Why is Geoff shouting random information

According to Talksport their left back is 'makeshift.'

Maximum 2 goals to be scored. 0-0, 1-0, 1-1, or 0-1...

Or 2-0?

On paper, weakest line-up of the season. No O’Hare? Shipley captain again?

4-0 win. Shipley hat-trick

Few good shots shipley should hit the target with the header. Very open

Westbrooke finding a lot of space and causing problems

Keep the ref guessing. I like it.

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?

Westbrook looks lovely. Yep I think bigger crowd

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.

I know, I know. Heavy night last night...

certainly testing the squad out.

Rochdale look tidy when they have the ball, nice little one touch game

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

10 Hail Mary's and 2 Hail Bakayoko's

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

The commentary so far has mainly consisted of

"hahaha men from Rochdale wear pink football kits"

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.
