    Match Thread Stoke City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 8th Nov

    Haven’t been able to get to many away games since my children were born, only a handful a season these days, so I’m massively excited for Saturday!! The game itself will be tense, but with the game expected to be tight and the MR factor I’m expecting a great atmosphere. I think it’ll be a...

    I put it in the match thread on the night; that was easily one of the best pre game atmospheres I’ve been involved in. The Enemy nailed it, the minutes silence was perfect, PUSB was the best in a long time, the light show/fireworks were well integrated and even the usual cheesy phone lights on...

    Wright

    I think I watched a different game; he was incredibly frustrating again last night. Has the ability to be head and shoulders above any striker in this league, but doesn’t show it enough. The anonymity is annoying. As are the offsides and half arsing 50/50 challenges. I get he isn’t a target...

    Boxed into a corner

    I do get the logic re less space for attackers to move, and it’s only the first time we’ve conceded so no need to panic too much. But I would love us to leave two up, it gives them something to worry about and we’ve seen how long and accurate Rushworths throws can be. We also saw our players...

    Should Robins get a Song from the SBA at Stoke?

    Yea, he deserves some recognition. Not a song, but a clap at an appropriate time. I will forever have an affinity with Robins. Those of us who did the “journey” from that horrendous L1 relegation season, to numerous Wembley trips and a penalty away from the a prem, I don’t think will ever...

    This is wank, again. Big HT for Frank. The ball isn’t sticking. Wright, BTA, Eccles in a front 4 isn’t working.

    Also, controversial but I’ve always thought McCallum was overrated. Hope Sakamoto has his pants down.

    One of the most atmospheric pre game build ups I’ve ever been to. Might not be for everyone but I thought that was pretty special.

    Strong team. BTA on the wing isn’t ideal, but I can see why he can’t be dropped. I think it’ll be a 6 and 2 8’s, no clear 10.

    Looks like quite a small set up in the corner. You’d hope they checked the weather and had a contingency plan….

    This rain is absolutely horrendous. High press will cause issues against their clumsy defence. Albeit we will go more direct, so as I said earlier wouldn’t be surprised to see more Simms today.

    FFS, the only nice beer available will be back to full price then. They enjoy testing different variations out, we’re willing guinea pigs each week - it’s like a mass social experiment!

    Why are you always so angry? Chill, yes you missed out on a shirt and I can see how that’s upsetting, but we’ve got a game later and we’ll be 5 points clear at the top tonight.

    Not tried it yet, but the shop were saying it’s similar to this years kit. I went a size up.

    My response was pretty jovial. I see you running round this forum biting at everything. I wasn’t even looking for one and you reacted. Christ.

    You timed it perfectly - I should have waited till later, but I had no idea it would be that bad. I was waiting around two hours.

    Doug on CWR

    Am I the only one who has no idea, nor care, what other fans think of us? I couldn’t tell you what your average fan of <insert any team> thinks of us. I’m not on Twitter and I barely use my personal social media accounts, so I don’t see the stuff online. But even if I did, who cares. We all...
