Match Thread Coventry v Sunderland Championship Playoff 1st Leg Friday 9th May (21 Viewers)

[larry_david]

Sunderland put in two hard tackles early doors. And a fair few at the end.

We need to be up for this second half. I want to see bravery.

We were well worth the draw until the MVE mistake gifted them a goal.

There's no question that no-one deserved to win that.

Sorry to say it but that defeat was down to Milan. He was gutted as the end. Hope we turn it around for his sake

I've seen enough tonight to suggest we are not out of this yet

Sheffield United however must be extremely happy with how the last 24 hours or so have panned out, they still look streets ahead of the rest of us.

Im not saying there was from the players…if anything a lot of them looked nervous.

Definitely, some bizarre decisions made, especially in transition.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We go into next week now as the underdog. It’s the position we have thrived in the last 7 years. Go and play with freedom and treat it with no pressure and I think we can win. The pressure is on them now.

Good insight, what makes you say that

really can’t imagine we’d win by two goals at the stadium of light.

Tactically poor and lacking in ideas going forwards again. Themes are developing to our losses.

 

[Esoterica]

We haven't got a useful striker, that is the main problem.

Wright is neither a winger or striker and needs space to run into to be effective. His performances are almost as inconsistent as his first touch. BTA is similar, but without the height advantage, certainly not a lone striker. Simms doesn't use his frame nearly well enough, seems to lack the natural confidence you want in a striker, and his purple patches don't come around nearly often enough.

Tie over

1000%

Why not we’ve done it enough before.

Can we at least take the lead on the road where our form has been awful? I think that is the question.

 

[jto123]

The high line is a strange one for me. Do we have the quality for it? Feels like premier league tactics for a championship team

Form is irrelevant as we’ve seen tonigh

Next game play the Boro starting team

We need to become street smart. Multiple fouls we should have made more of. Get at the ref every time they waste time and kick ball away

Shit happens!! Let’s be positive. Still feel we get a result come Tuesday.

 

[fernandopartridge]

They'll sit deep at home and win 1-0, we'll huff and puff

Also only takes 1 goal and then pens

What the fuck is Lorna Bailey blathering on about?

It’ll be tough but there’s no reason why we can’t at least take it to extra time. Even if we’re don’t though it’s been a very good season all things considered.

So what was wrong with my I initial comment ?

 

[SBAndy]

Genuinely really fucking annoyed about that performance. Playing a team who are in the bin from a confidence perspective and we showed no killer instinct at all.

That’s right let’s get a few yellow cards early on

We will be playing this lot next season for sure

A fair criticism. Kind of feel like we have to have at least one rapid centre back if we do that. I know MVE drops in but sometimes he is too far out wide to help on a counter.

ITS.NOT.OVER

He was onside

He was onside, Kitch was playing him on.
