Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 12th Aug (29 Viewers)

If the club can’t be fucked I sure as hell can’t. I’m not paying and dragging myself out if the club is going to play Ben Wilson Jamie Allen and a couple of kids. Even the friendlies had better sides than that. Just a waste of everyone’s time.

Saying the club 'can't be f*&ked' is a bit harsh.

They obviously do but need to manage work loads for players across a busy season. It's common practice for all clubs to rotate for cup games...doesn't mean they don't give a sh!t.

Yeah agree with this. At the end of the day Lampard is managing people, he needs to rotate today, he doesnt want to upturn the apple cart by not playing certain players.

I think Shmeee is another football manager fan

That’s true for every game of the season. Arguably a single league game is less impactful than any cup game. This has all come from Champions League worship in the PLnand prioritising finishing 5th over winning a cup. Je refuse

I'm looking forward to seeing some of the youngsters.

Pop down Alan Higgs whenever you want. I hear it’s free parking.

Fuck is this you? Absolute fucking mad man!

Luton in good form coming into this with 2 wins in 2 and no goals conceeded. Although Bloomfield has said they will be resting/rotating.

Looking forward to seeing Perry, Andrews and Rapha in a competitive match.

 

[torchomatic]

Rushworth
KKH - Thomas - Perry - Brau
Grimes - Andrews - Rudi
Rapha - Simms - EMC

With another 30 to 40 off the bench for Wright

I know bugger all, obviously, but would be amazed if Wilson didn't start.

 

[Evo1883]

Fuck is this you? Absolute fucking mad man!

Mental that , cant believe he lay down tbh

 

[covcity4life]

It's not even on carpet! Madness

 

[Great_Expectations]

I haven’t given up hope; Ellis to score a brace, gain some confidence and prove why he works better in this system than BTA.

I don’t think EMC will start, Lampard said he’s carrying a slight knock didn’t he?

I would expect Wright to play there if he’s capable of 50/60 mins, or Brau might start there with Bidwell at left back.

Would be happy with Wright getting minutes on the left.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I think if EMC doesn’t start BTA will start LW to be honest

Keep us updated.

Keep us updated.

UPDATE : went nuts ... going

surprised dining room isnt up front

 

[Captain Dart]

surprised dining room isnt up front

Lounge is a surprise addition to the bench.

 

[Cally Fedora]

It’s a shame Kitchen has been a magnet for some criticism so far. It’s difficult to know wren that will stop and how den wickes is frustrating.

[ccfctommy]

About 25,000 I reckon

At twenty quid a go? No chance

Why does this formation make it look like everyone’s keeping their distance from Rapha?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Take 10k off that and you'll be closer.

 

[clint van damme]

He was answering the post above his regarding the spurs attendance

More individual photo opportunities, if everyone keeps their distance. The poster boy, bless him.

 

[matesx]

12k to 15k tonight i'll guess

 

[David O'Day]

12k to 15k tonight i'll guess

with just 2 sides open?

 

[edgy]

12k to 15k tonight i'll guess

It's going to be about half that. Certainly no more than 8k, I'd guess. Looking at the map, there's no more than about 3-4k sold so far in the home ends.

 

[Skyblueabo1111]

Rushworth
KKH (if fit enough)
Thomas
Perry
Brau
Andrews
Grimes
Rudoni
Raphael
Wright (get 45 to 60 mins into him)
EMC

Bit of rotation, but get some fitness into some that need minutes.

Don't think Simms will play.

If Simms doesn't play, on the way out.

 

[Viktor17]

Anyone know if roadworks on foleshill road still on today, due to finish, but as normal suspect will over run?

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Rushworth
KKH
Thomas
Kitching
Brau
Grimes

Torp
Saka
Simms
Wright


Rest Rudi and EMC if they've got niggles, give Andrews some proper game time to see how he does, give Wright some minutes to get him up to speed, play Brau to see if he's up to scratch yet. Ideal game to start Simms if Lampard hasn't already decided he's not having him.


Cant imagine Luton are bringing many so can't see above 10k tbh

 

[CV22SBA]

12k to 15k tonight i'll guess

No chance, 8K max.
