    He will still get at least a 7 rating though. Andy Turner will probably give him 7.5 When he signed in the Summer, the way people raved about him, you would have thought we had signed the second coming of Maldini

    Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Nov

    Looking at the highlights on SkySports (I was not at the game). I feel Dasilva is getting some unfair treatment for the first goal (and no, I am not a Dasilva fan) Why does Binks feel the need to come out to Hamer, when the CDM is on his shoulder? Hamer then plays the ball straight into the...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Nov

    8 home games. Conceded 2 goals in 6 of those 8. CBS is more like a bouncey castle, rather than a fortress. Defenders are abysmal. No doubt the usuals will get 7/10. Cannot keep relying on trying to score 2 or 3 goals a game just to try to grab a point!

    Match Thread Supporter's Meeting with Doug King Match Thread

    There have been a number of references to John Dawkins’ podcast; his reaction to the conference. Does anybody have a link to it? The latest That CovPod (podcast) I see on Spotify or my podcasts app is for the reaction to the Sunderland game.

    My goodness, it is just my opinion. I compared Wright’s performance today against his performance against Luton Town when I thought he was our best player. In my opinion, today he was not as aggressive as last week. Last week he showed what he can do when he really turns it on and set a...

    Certainly did. I believe it was the podcast after the loss to Preston North End

    I just compare the Wright from today to the one against Luton Town. Against Luton Town, to me at least, he had the bit between his teeth and played with more aggression, almost like a man possessed. Today I don’t think there was as much aggression. Crikey, I’ve still given him a 7, whereas I...

    It was more a case of Wright doing that lackadaisical approach. I appreciate he scored and got an assist, but did the disinterested part as well. If he had put in a bit more effort I would have given him an 8. Thomas Asante did get into good positions on occasion, and was close to getting a...

    Ah here we go, you likely rate him 8/10 because he charges up the pitch, just like he did against QPR to charge in on the half way line, and left a huge gap which was then exploited for their goal He is a fucking defender who cannot defend!! Lost his man for their second goal. But he is the...

    Sheaf and rudoni ahead of the back line, Torp in the advanced position picking up second phase balls. Alternatively, box midfield alongside Sakamoto, sheaf and rudoni behind. Rudoni looked much better playing from a deeper position where he has a little more time

    I have said it ad infinitum…ONE league clean sheet in the whole time he has been here Yet Robins keeps picking him. This is why I am now starting to edge towards the ‘time for him to go’ camp

    Diving into the challenge on half way line leaving the left hand side of defence exposed . The screen shot attached is from when the ball hit the net, not when the ball was played across, not when the ball was struck for the goal…where the hell is Binks in that defence? He was further forward...

    Then has the audacity to throw his arms up in the air whilst looking at DaSilva! If van Ewijk misses a tackle, he gets pilloried, if the midfield miss a tackle they too get slated. Yet for LCB Binks nothing is really said, and Andy Turner will give him the standard 7/10 The bloke is...

    I wonder if it’s a combination of him being an average player, but also physically and mentally drained. I’m certainly no fan of his, but he has played a lot, and also having come through the academy (I personally hate the ‘Cov Kid’/‘One of our own’ bollox), but maybe the situation the club...

    Problem being though that Robins will play Torp deep alongside Sheaf as a direct replacement for Eccles, where he (Torp) is least effective. Torp (as you imply) is much better as the more forward option; picking up/going for the second phase ball. Certainly agree with you that Rudoni needs to...

    Agree to an extent. But with Binks it goes back to last season too! ONE league clean sheet in two seasons for a defender is a terrible statistic. Last season his clean sheet percentage was around ten percent, this season it is obviously zero percent. Kitching last season was around 30 percent...
