Match Thread Coventry City vs. Ipswich Town Match Thread - Sunday 1st Dec (2 Viewers)

God this forum is depressing at times. I ran out of that stadium today absolutely buzzing to be in the hat for the third round when it looked so unlikely with time running out. Come on here and it’s just people bickering (usual suspects). I really enjoyed the game today, it was a good battle and a fair result. Fingers crossed for a good draw. PUSB!!!

Not being funny bud but unless you bolted out of the ground at 4.30 that's not happening at the Ricoh either.

Around 5pm i said. I can be home for 5 and then 10 min drive to temple to meet the other helpers before moving into town and diff churches or care homes etc

Its clearly more doable than birmingham isnt it?!

Cant believe i am even having to justify this.

We're crying out for a reliable No. 9. At least one of our current crop need moving on in January

you're getting good at alienating people just lately

No season tickets to add to the gate, which I believe get counted for league attendances regardless of whether season ticket holders actually use their tickets. Still a big differential though.

This was also my thought that season tickets won’t be counted. But would you say there were only 3 x Cov fans there to Ipswich? It really felt like a ‘normal’ attendance in the ground. Granted the corner section was empty (so minus ~200?) bit the rest of the ground looked the same to me (and to those around me at the ground).

I’m not trying to make any specific point, and I have no idea why they would lie about it, I just can’t believe there were ~3k fewer fans in there than usual.

Anyway, thought we did ok. Ipswich were obviously a good team compared to what we usually play, and we certainly weren’t embarrassed. We struggled to threaten their goal first half, but we made a few chances second half and with a bit of luck could have got another one or two.

Not confident about getting a win at their place, but we’ve got to win away at some point — Shirley.

We’ve probably sent him backwards playing him in a 1 on his own as we did wkth chaplin lol

Haven't trawled the thread to check, just defrosted after the game. Can't believe the crowd figure they published - but as long as CCFC have pocketed the extra cash, I don't care!

Indeed and he'll have been out for at least 3 months by the time he's ready to play. Without him it's painfully obvious that our alternatives aren't up to the task.

It has to be more than that surely?

Grendel said:

No I said we’d finish 16th and would be in trouble if Hiwula gets crocked. Before we signed Walsh Godden and O Hare also I’d check current firm league if I was you

Grendel said:

If hiwula has a bad injury we will be in a relegation battle with this squad

Tbh i have let myself down by even mentioning it to defend myself tbh. Goes against releigion and is NOT the reason do it. Wont mention it again. Ppl can think what they like about it, ill just put on ignore.

At least you're keeping up your interest in the club and sending some money its way. If you can't go it's the next best thing.

Well I was right as with the squad we had we would be? I hate to tell you but ccfc4life liked my post when he made it before and i said the signings we made? He said if Hiwula was injured and mentioned Walsh didn’t he ?

Yes and no. I think the brand of 433 is not ideal and is part of the issue. Playing 2 up top Max and Godden will be decent. For now. Baka/Jordy and Max should start.

covcity4life said:

You called it a relegation fodder squad without hiwulla

Walsh makes that much of a difference to your thinking?

Click to expand...

This is what he said? Why mention one player ccfcway when we signed 3?

Part of me thinks Max and Godden would benefit more from being partnered with someone short and speedy but happy to be proven wrong. Baka too often just looks like a fish out of water while Hiwulla has been distinctly off the pace this season. At this point in time we are still missing sitters every week which doesn't help with the focus on any of them

If you ever do find the stamina to trawl through the thread you will find I have been banging the same drum, so to speak. Doesn’t bother me, just felt like a massive difference between the figure announced and reality! If we have ‘forgotten’ to add the cash payers to the figure then fair enough (does that really happen or is it one of those myths...).
