Assault on Rudoni there. Awful reffing.

Crazy that wasn’t given.

Hughes looking clumsy for them tbh!

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Their main threat is down the right.

 

[TomRad85]

What a save that is by Rushworth.

 

[Diogenes]

Got lucky there.

 

[DT-R]

Well spotted by the lino that was tight. Great save from Rushworth though. Great for his confidence nice and early

We can't go long so look like we don't know what to do

 

[Macca]

Fuck me they’re passing through us easily

Cos they are doing it at pace

 

[Evo1883]

Good challenge by our future centre half

 

[ccfcchris]

I thought that was in

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Good defending from Hull, great play from us

 

[Winny the Bish]

Huge chance that. Shame it was on Rudoni’s right foot.

 

[sw88]

Rushworth did well despite that offside. Made himself big

like how we’re always looking forward. And plenty of long balls from him rather than pissing about with goal kicks too

 

[StrettoBoy]

Lovely pass by Torp.

 

[TomRad85]

Sakamoto our best player so far.

After I said that, great block

 

[Nick]

Jds against their winger for height

 

[DT-R]

What's Hughes doing blocking that???? Does he not know he's a Cov player now?! #UndercoverAgent

Bta so weak for somebody who has his legs out all the time

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

We look good when we get forward, a bit rough elsewhere. But some good signs.

 

[Great_Expectations]

No idea how anyone doesn’t rate Sakamoto.

 

[sw88]

really was! How it wasn’t given I have no idea
But it’s Marley it seems (wasn’t sure at first but since confirmed in above replies )

yet he’s just given that one against BTA!

 

[Great_Expectations]

He’s a nice bloke and runs lots, but BTA cannot be our starting striker.

He’s technically so poor.

 

[larry_david]

Hughes playing the lati card, get out muscled then fall over

 

[Macca]

Need to stop throwing ourselves on the floor. Will end up with ref not giving us anything

 

[Covstar]

Hughes has looked their best player so far. Couple of decent blocks and interceptions.

 

[StrettoBoy]

I'm very happy to see Torp in the starting lineup but for me it isn't a like-for-like swap with Sheaf.

Torp is better further forward, not sitting deep alongside Grimes. I wonder if this means that there will be a slight change in formation. Whatever happens I want to see Tirp having licence to roam upfield.

Torp clearly playing in the role I wanted to see him in

 

[Alkhen]

Enjoying Ull comms

"Sakamuuhtuuh just past tut pust"

 

[Bristol sky blue]

No idea how anyone doesn’t rate Sakamoto.

Rate him highly - he can be less effective when playing away for some reason though (formation tweak might not suit him?)

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

All Tatsu at the moment. Need more from EMC on the other flank.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Have to say, the kit looks lovely on the pitch.

Saka is man of the first quarter-hour.

We look a little iffy, but have more match-winners on the pitch than most other teams.

 

[Paul Anthony]

How many different variations of Milan's surname can these sky commentators come up with? He's been everything from an air freshener to a pirate so far...

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Great move

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Sakamoto starting the season the way he finished the last one.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

We're going to batter someone this season. Look delicious going forward.

 

[Evo1883]

Hughes really keeping hull in this
