Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO (1 Viewer)

alexccfc99 · Feb 2, 2025

A real test after our recent good form, and a warm reception guaranteed for our manager from the (presumably) sold out away end!

Think that lot will end up winning the League at a canter and I hope this side isn’t judged too harshly if we do get beat here

I’d take any result that isn’t a defeat, I’d even be happy with a very boring 0-0, that being said in the last few years we have managed to turn at least one of the high flyers over at home (Leicester, Fulham, even these lot last season)

Should be a decent game

shmmeee · Feb 2, 2025

Just keep it below 7 and I’m happy. Players will need a proper atmosphere I think.

Team selection is hard. EMC and Grimes back and on paper you can’t leave them out. Allen has been excellent last couple though and you don’t want to change the formation.

Ryton this week:

Captain Dart · Feb 2, 2025

I will take a draw for this one.

Jamesimus · Feb 2, 2025

Has to be same team with a view to some earlier subs.

Jamie Allen probably has 8 games for his 7 a side team in the power league and 3 ten km park runs between now and then anyway, so I’m sure he can do another 90+.

Would take any result provided we don’t make it easy for them (hi Cardiff!) and bloody their nose a little. I’m fairly understanding like that.

quinn1971 · Feb 2, 2025

Theyr‘e not brilliant away draw a lot, but don’t lose many either, worried with their pace our new high line doesn’t get caught out too often, done em last season no reason why we can’t again,

Can see a draw here.

shepardo01 · Feb 2, 2025

Had a look yesterday to see if their 7-0 was one of those games where everything they hit went in.
It wasn't - they had 29 attempts on goal!!

covcity4life · Feb 2, 2025

No way emc starts imo

Grimes possible though

You can't throw emc back in and change the formation to suit them he's clearly not match fit. That's madness.

He will be on the bench.

Thats…what I said?

clint van damme · Feb 2, 2025

Despite having a strange confidence that we'll win this is a free hit really.

North York’s Blue · Feb 2, 2025

Free hit as far as I’m concerned given our results lately, same with next Sat.

PUSB-We_are_going_up · Feb 2, 2025

1-1 for me

Sky Blue Pete · Feb 2, 2025

2-2. Or 3-2 either way

Sky Blue Pete · Feb 2, 2025

Leeds not conceded in 6 games
We’ve scored first in last 6
Them in 8 out of 10
Only lost 3 all season
Tough game

HJones23 · Feb 2, 2025

Wouldn’t be surprised if he brings Tatts in for BTA and starts with the box in front of the back 5

Nick · Feb 2, 2025

I'd take the point

keep It the same, take it to em, can sometimes give teams too much respect, keep,the 2 up front, noticed other Managers have been saying that it’s different playing against us with 2 up front,

skybluejelly · Feb 2, 2025

I'm really glad it's Leeds and going to be a difficult game , if it was one of the lower teams we might think we just have to turn up to win ..if we are serious about being promoted we should easily match them

I can't see an attitude where the players think that they just have to turn up to win. With players returning shortly from injury it's a competitive squad and a lazy performance could well mean losing your place .

David O'Day · Feb 2, 2025

I said the same team as before as Grimes is suspended you could maybe start him and bring Allen back for Ipswich.

Putting those together suggests that we will both score first in a goalless draw

We’ll match them. I think it will be a close game and whoever takes their chances. Probably a 2-1 either way.

CovveeBreak · Feb 2, 2025

We win this then we barnstorm into the playoffs. Facts.

DannyThomas_1981 · Feb 2, 2025

Just wanted to mention that the usual hystericals have gone strangely quiet. 4 weeks ago the dialogue was all about relegation and the club completely throwing away money on recruitment wasn’t it? They’ll be back after a couple of narrow defeats but it’s nice to escape their nonsense for a time.

I think their internet must have gone down.

We will stamp the last remaining cockroaches out of they try that shit again. Majority of forum now understands what we were saying from the start

Evo1883 · Feb 2, 2025

We beat these 2-1

any defeat against Leeds and they'll be back

covcity4life · Feb 2, 2025

I've been right 3 weeks in a row with the exact scoreline

Bound to come to an end at some point but then again I'm always right so who knows?!

Gut feeling is 1-1

A simple system of fines (to boost Helping Fans) would be appropriate. For starters

Treating one bad result as a crisis
Condemning any player or manager who's been with us for less than 6 months
Mis-spelling any CCFC players name (particularly Latibeaudiere)
Saying 'should of' instead of 'should have'

Covcraig@bury · Feb 2, 2025

3-1 or 3-2 win it’s a 6 pointer

CovInEssex · Feb 2, 2025

Said all season Leeds are head and shoulders above any one else in the league and I'm still pissed off thinking about our performance up there earlier in the season.

2-0 Cov. Grimes to start.

We did. Can we do it again this season though?
