Coventry V Sunderland

Talk about this here

[Otis]

This is Coventry City, so a great fighting performance and a victory.

 

[Macca]

I think they will have a dream day out

 

[hinckley cov]

If we play like today god help us and you can guarantee robins will be out thought as he’s a stubborn thick twat

 

[bringbackrattles]

You watch they'll be up for it and play well. Jekyll and Hyde team !

 

[Otis]

Yep. Me and you are wise old heads, BRR.......well, old heads anyway.

This is the City I have known for an eternity and I will now be quietly confident of beating Sunderland next week.

We've always been a club who can and has beaten top sides, but then go and lose against teams who are struggling etc. I've seen us beat Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Man Utd, and Leeds when they were a top side. And watched us lose to non league sides in the Cup and at clubs who hadn't won in months !

 

[Gosb]

And we've won 5 of our last 6 televised matches.

[no_loyalty]

I didn't realise just how much quality Sunderland have in their squad, if we play to our maximum then I think we will beat them.

It’s a shame we lost today against Bristol Rovers as again we have lost a bit of momentum going into the Sunderland game. Would have probably got a few more home bums on seats aswell. Realistically I think they will have a bit too much for us but then again this is Cov.......

 

[Otis]

This is Cov indeed.

We can pull Rachel Riley one week and then get rejected by Susan Boyle the next.

Agreed. Probably knocked a thousand off the gate.

 

[ccfcmad1]

Going to be tough even more so after yesterday's shambles, maybe got my sky blue tinted glasses on but going for a 2-2 end to end game just shy of 17k in attendance.

 

[Elvis Pressley]

I read on Facebook that they want to rape the Jimmy Hill Statue.

 

[Lost_Mackem]

We were awful yesterday until we took the lead, once we got our noses in front we grew in confidence but Rochdale were hapless. We’ve only kept one clean sheet all season.

I think it’ll be a very tight game.

Only if Cov cut out the silly mistake in defence.

 

[cc84cov]

Wouldn’t be surprised if we won this...

Burge
Willis Davis Hyam Mason
Thomas Bayliss Doyle Shipley
Chaplin JCH

Sterling nowhere near the squad please Robins I’ve seen enough.

Burton away seasons ago. Believe we won thatlive on sky.

Yes our record isnt bad at all in televised matches.

We will shade this, i dont think any side in this league is to be feared.

Not if you score first.

 

[pusbccfc]

Just under 9000 tickets sold in the home ends. It's going to look embarrassing on TV.

Not sure about your first comment, but agree with your team.

Just win the game thats all that matters

 

[Adge]

And that’s counting season tickets already sold aswell.:emoji_anguished:

I'd go with the same, however I might be tempted to go with Bakayoko instead of JCH, and play it on the deck for him to run at pace against Glenn Loovens.

 

[pusbccfc]

Yep. Only 300 sold since Wednesday last week!!

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

I’d take the last time we played them at Home in 2006.

Unbelievably Doyle played in that team!

Stern John scored an unbelievable goal that game

 

[Amcoventry]

Hate to say it but our team don't have the history and lacking a bit in fight. I think we will lose by 2 at least

I fear it wont be the lack of home fans that embarrasses us....
