Match Thread Luton Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 26th Apr (14 Viewers)

[Hincha]

Wasn't too disappointed on Saturday night as the draw didn't change that we'd need to win to secure playoffs

Now Bristol have been hammered that point looks like it could cost us 5th (and I fancy us against Sunderland) - so now I'm frustrated

That’s a really good point I’ve been trying to explain my thoughts
The Plymouth goal was a keeper error
Burnley and Luton were decision making rather than technically keeper errors
It’s all part of it obviously

Decision making is a huge part of the keeper's art, they have to judge whether to stay back or come out and when to leave it to the defender. Brad 's decision making goes to pot in the last 10 minutes of a game.

The weird thing is, a lot of keepers, when they make an error by coming off their line, are rooted to it for a few games after that, but Collins still comes charging out when he shouldn't.

Yep

It's ok the coaches saying Collins has trained better than Wilson but he can't perform on matchday. He needs to see a psychologist or something to see if they can get his training form onto the pitch. Either that or Wilson must be abysmal in training.

I would hope that there is a sports psychologist available at the club given the set up we have now.

Apparently Liam Walsh's red card appeal has been successful. Words fail me

Apparently not even a second yellow? Of course.

 

[Nick]

I'm not sure they can downgrade can they?

It was never a straight red though.

 

[Grendel]

They cannot downgrade - if he had given 2 yellows it could not be challenged

Sure, doesn’t explain how the chap who kicked out at Eccles escapes any sanction though.

 

[Chicken Mcgraw]

Then Sakamoto should receive a sanction for kicking out away at Plymouth?

He got booked?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He got booked?

Should have been off.

 

[Grendel]

Should have been off.

Yes but you can't upgrade can you? I don't blame the ref for that anyway as that had to be the assistants call

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

More is the pity. The officials have let us down a fair bit over this season, more than whatever poor decisions have gone our way. The linesman allowing that just one of many that haven’t.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Not crazy it was overturned it wasn’t a red card offence

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yes

 

[Chicken Mcgraw]

Yes

Agrees

I think there may be one such expert in the camp. She's been talked about quite a lot on here.

That's the refs fault for wrongly giving him a straight red. Had he given him a second yellow there'd be no grounds for appeal.

 

[Warwickhunt]

Can't remember the last time city had an appeal upheld? This will be Lutons 3rd appeal that was successful in 3 years

Believe in Karma Robbie! Believe!

It is bizarre that the red can be overturned but it should have been a yellow and therefore a red
Hope they go down

Yeah but they only decide if it was red yes or no. They can't downgrade to a yellow or upgrade from a yellow.

It clearly wasn't a red, should have been a second yellow but that's on the ref. He should have also been booked earlier on in the game where he faked a head injury after closelining somebody. (cant remember who it was now).

it's this that summed it up for me. It wasn't off the ball, those two had challenged for it fractions of a second before. How the f*ck do you miss that and give a yellow for the kick on Eccles, and somehow get Walsh's second yellow wrong as a red. In the same match.

Oliver fucking Langford, that's how!!!

It doesn't get any better tho, Stuart Attwell this weekend!!!! Another Prem ref who will be lost without fucking VAR to correct his mistakes!!

After us, his next game is the Cup Final ffs

 

[skyblu3sk]

Said at the time was never a red should have been a yellow as he had no right getting involved. If you can't downgrade then he gets away with it just missing 20 mins of football.

That's 2 yellows mate, he should be off!

Exactly what I meant connection is a bit dodgy where I am
