Shows how sometimes just a single win or defeat can change things drastically. (Is it okay for me to use 'drastically?;))

Aussies lost 7 wickets for 67 runs

That's more like it. Aussies all out for 327!!! Who would have thought it.

Not today I'm not. Was convinced we wouldn't lose. Wasn't expecting a win, but thought we could at least get a draw there.

Hence I said DAY, a devastating day. Not talking about the season or the rest of the campaign to come, I was talking about today. Thought that was pretty clear right there in the title.:) And I said 'massive' because there is a big difference between being in 3rd, IN an automatic promotion...

Actually, I think my worst present was going out for Christmas dinner, paid for by my parents. All food choices pre-ordered over a month ago and table booked two months ago. So, get there (it's a carvery, but I am obviously vegetarian) and we pretty much immediately get our starters, only my...

Who has said it is? I am merely pointing out the difference today between us winning and losing I'm terms of the table and the fact that we can't keep doing this. Two wins on the bounce at home, two defeats on the bounce away.

I saw the other day on the Beeb site they were talking about a lot of the younger generation were moving away and out of Russia. I think the younger generation are a lot more questioning in their attitudes.

Yeah, I know. Weird isn't it. She is totally and completely obsessed with Putin and will not hear a word against him. All I can tell you is she's watching endless Russian TV programmes, that look a bit like Question Time, but they are all standing at podiums as per our leadership debates over...

Nope, Russian and she totally blames Ukraine for the Russians having to go in and 'help people' over there. She watches videos every single day with Russian politicians slagging off Ukraine blaming them for everything. In her world Putin is a great, kind and generous man who would never hurt...

Probably not. The daughter is on a sleep over and the missus is getting wound up about Ukraine again.

Nope. Just wondered if it affected the way and style we played, trying to keep the ball off the deck.

Just how bad was the pitch and how much of a factor would you say? Saw a few comments about the ball not travelling properly.

Well yeah, was going for the CT killer headline approach. ;)

At the weekend we were just 1 point off the automatic promotion places. If we had won today we WOULD have been 3rd, but here we are, in 7th and clinging on to that last play off place. Massive loss today. A win and it would have been 1. Luton 51 pts 2. Notts County 47 pts 3. CITY 41 pts 4...

Only trouble with that is, for me, this a shit or bust season, a one chance scenario. It's a massive factor that this is Coventry City and we have been in perpetual decline for nearly 20 years. Nothing but doom and gloom for every season more or less. We don't make the playoffs this season the...

And if he had have changed to said formation and we had still have lost he would have been absolutely slated on here for changing to a completely different system

There is of course some truth in that, but Andreu could play wide and we did deploy him there at least once, Jones was a wide player and Vincenti has been playing wide right too. That's three players right there. Past playing DKE today, Robins didn't have many options left.

Thing is, Carlisle is a difficult place to go to too and they have now won 3 in a row, 2 league games and then Gillingham in the FA Cup. They must really fancy their chances against us on Saturday. Hate to say it, but this is the most I have been down all season. Always been upbeat, despite...

Really bloody annoys me. I only started going that first season in the top division, AFTER the Sky Blue revolution and I have seen so much perpetual struggle over the years.
