Coventry v Sheffield UTD matchday thread.

[Macca]

Still say we have nothing to worry about in this league

 

[Grendel]

The midfield was tiring. 2 games we have list the lead in. A disappointing goal to concede having looked the better team this half.

 

[mark82]

It's worrying because it's following a similar pattern to last year.

 

[ccfcway]

dropped 4 points from leading positions so far this season

 

[cyril]

Think one of our centre halves might nick it for us

 

[Martin180]

We do have players returning after injury - Elliott , Jennings ,Barton .

 

[Tad]

3 mins of added time.

 

[Nick]

Their number 5 cant even run properly! Get cody on him

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

not good enough

 

[Grendel]

sounded like it was a soft goal to concede

It was a good finish but we were stretched. We should make late subs to break up the play and Jennings and kilbane look shot.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Yeovil were a tougher team than Sheff U....

 

[mark82]

Come on city.

We should made subs about 5 mins before the goal. We were starting to tire. It was painfully obvious. Sheffs just played a game of stamina and won it.

 

[mark82]

Any sign of a last minute goal?

 

[Tad]

Result: Coventry City 1-1 Sheffield UTD.

2 games played, 2 draws.

 

[Macca]

I d have taken that at half time but some tactical nous would still be nice

 

[skyblu3sk]

Seriously not good enough. We can't switch off for 45 mins out of 90!

 

[RichieGunns]

Yeovil were a tougher team than Sheff U....

Which shows as they just won their second game...

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Bloody hell... really thought we were going to get 3 points. Such a soft goal to concede.

Thorn should have bought some fresh legs in in midfield much earlier. Hence why i said stick Edge in to rough em up.

Not good enough IMO. Roll on Saturday.

 

[sw88]

I'll take that score draw especially after the first half

 

[Sick Boy]

if we carry on playing like that we shouldn't even be thinking about promotion

 

[PVA]

4 points dropped from 2 games. If we can lose that nasty habit we'll do very well this year.

Edge ? He isnt up to the pace of the english game as a centre half and you want to play him CM ?

2 games in , disappointed to lose leads but we are still unbeaten and can only improve as the side gets fitter and starts to gel

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

Great result. We need to get points to build confidence. At least we didnt lose. I would take this from promotion favourites any day. At least we are competing this season instead of rolling over.

2 points off the play offs.

Draw against favourites for automatic promotion.

Yeovil just won away 3 - 1

My Guiness is half full

Undefeated this season.

Stumbled on our best centre half pairing.

Brown will be on the bench as back up when Clarke Is back.

Elliott may now help cody.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

If we don't annihilate Bury on Saturday then we have a very tough season ahead of us.

There is a severe lack of creativity in that final 1/3 again.

 

[mark82]

Or to give a negative slant. Comfortably bottom half in 15th.

 

[Deleted member 162]

Glass is half full too, can only hope as the team gels we'll be getting better and better especially with our stronger players coming back too. Get a result out of Bury is a must, I know some on here will want to discard Birmingham but I think beating them/having a real good will boost our league confidence especially if we get a result. Quietly optimistic for Bury Saturday especially as its a home game, hopefully get 10k plus again

 

[Joe King]

So much for the "I'll take a draw" brigade! Had a lead, throw it away. We are now in 15th position with just 2 points from 6. I know its early days but I worry for this club!

Agreed. :wave:

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Positives....

Malaga and Wood are the pair
Elliott will be a good foil for Cody


Negatives
Brown... isn't good enough at the moment.... he needs to learn fast
4 points dropped in 2 games
Creativity lacking
Thorn should have made early subs

 

[Coventry La La La]

Or to give a negative slant. Comfortably bottom half in 15th.

Bottom half after 2 games?

Thorn out!!!

 

[Daz]

Last year we would of conceded in extra time as well.
At least against favourites to go up we held them
If we beat Doncaster home & away we will be favourites

 

[The CableGuy]

dropped 4 points from leading positions so far this season

We aced that stat last season didn't we? Lost more points from winning positions then any other team.

Not again City, please!
