    Match Thread Coventry City at Blackpool Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Aug

    I think we have to go 4-4-2 next game - Try to pick as strong a side physically and mentally as possible. I would go with the following. GK: Burge RB: Willis if Davies fit (if not Grimmer) CB: Hyam CB: Davies LB: Brown DCM: Doyle...

    Hmm a Tricky one - I think maybe tempted to go with a diamond 4-4-2 it will never happen but ideally Burge GK Grimmer RB Brown LB Willis CB Davies CB Ogogo DCM Andreau ACM Bayliss...

    Match Thread Coventry City at AFC Wimbledon Match Thread - Saturday 11th Aug

    I'd have been tempted to play Burge & Grimmer but probably better not to make too many changes in hindsight. Bakayako worth a start to see if more dangerous than Max - Max had lots of starts and although effort cannot be faulted as you go u divisions you need a bit more than that, Willis was...

    Match Thread Coventry City at AFC Wimbledon Match Thread - Saturday 11th Aug

    Hmm difficult but thinking Burge may still not be fit and not convinced Willis is quite there yet either so would bench him given that expecting AFC Wimbledon to go direct. Reckon MR will stick with a 4-2-3-1 formation LOB GK Grimmer RB Hyam...

    I don't know what Sterling was doing for first goal looks like he could have got a tackle in was very weak and looks like he bottled it. He was not in my start xi but someone put he wont drop 26 leagues to sit on the bench...which was a slight exagerration Maybe he needs to after that display of...

    Transfer Rumour Deadline Week

    I cannot see Willis being sold now tbh especially now MacDonald gone it would leave us a bit lean really with only Hyam and Davies and a very young Thopmson who I view as 4th choice centre back. If Willis goes we'd have to get another cb in just cannot see that one.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Scunthorpe United Match Thread - Saturday 4th Aug

    Hmm really tricky to know with suspensions and people coming back fro m injury plus new signings how we will line up. I think I am going to go with a 4-2-3-1 formation and guessing the team will be as follows. Burge GK Grimmer RB Hyam...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 12th May

    Notts County very physical side - think we will have to line up like this. Burge Grimmer Stokes Willis Davies Doyle Kelly Shipley Baylis JCH McNulty Subs: O'Brien, Haynes, Macdonald, Reid, Vincenti, Ponticelli, Biamou

    Match Thread Coventry vs Lincoln Match Thread - 24th April

    I would be surprised if he does no go for same line up as last match - only thing maybe if he puts Bayliss back in for Shipley. Think he will probably keep with 4-3-3 not entirely convinced but we have won two on the bounce with it,... Burge Grimmer Haynes Willis Macdonald Kelly Shipley Doyle...

    Think he's been carrying an injury and maybe MR has told him to rest up and not rush back! :wtf:

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Stevenage Match Thread - Friday 20th Apr

    I think MR will name unchanged start xi - not saying it's right but people like Max and Reid have been decent impact subs. So think he will go 4-3-2-1 Burge Haynes Grimmer Willis MacDonald Kelly Doyle Bayliss Ponticelli JCH McNulty Subs: O'Brien, Davies, Stokes, Shipley, Reid, Barrett, Biamou

    Match Thread Coventry City at Crawley Town Match Thread - Saturday 14th Apr

    Hmm. I didn't think Davies or MacDonald were convincing at all against Ameobi at the weekend......definitely think Willis will be back which will be a boost. I think Crawley will be a little less direct than Notts County under Harry Kewall's leadership. I would like us to go 4-3-3 like below...

    Observations from today...

    Hyam didn't play (point 5) give the lad some stick mind! I think you may be meaning Tom Davies who did and then missed a free header from 8 yards at death of game it was not one of Davies's better performance but I do think he was giving his all just not coming off for him on the day.

    Lard

    I think rightly or wrongly as one of our higher earners and when like yesterday we appear to be lacking in pace. People clasp rather desperately to the "get Kyel Reid on" phililosophy based on that he is one of our quickest players and has played at higher level. The reality is that he...

    Who would you keep next season.

    Just watching how Ameobi bullied our defence today could we get Clive Platt out of retirement for league 2?:shamefullyembarrased:

    Meltdown

    Hmm we definitely did not batter them, we definitely did not deserve to win, we were pretty poor showed no composure and unlike Luton away and perhaps most disappointingly for me we showed nowhere near the level of pace/pressing & intensity of that game which given how important game could have...

    Match Thread Coventry City at Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 7th Apr

    I think McNulty or Biamou could both play wide right and be more effective than anyone who has played out there to date. I personally would stick McNulty wide right he drifted out there anyway quite a bit and give Biamou and JCH first crack up top,

    Match Thread Coventry City at Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 7th Apr

    Hmm at a bit of a loss as to how much to change and how much to keep was it just a bad day at the office, they had been on a good run but I also think head have to roll a little for performance - I think I would go 4-4-2 and if Kelly is back fit get him into the centre to make us more robust I...
