[SIR ERNIE]

Simms magnificent.

3 points again ole ole

 

[jordan210]

It was nice of Thomas to give them a goal to give them a little bit of belief

 

[fernandopartridge]

Nice smile from Adi to the lads at the end.

 

[Tommo1993]

Whilst playing pretty poorly

Very camp, I love it.

 

[hill83]

PRIDDY GOOD

 

[bigfatronssba]

Tell you who else should take a bow….the sba been ducking awesome

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Ridiculous to win that 4-2 after going 2-2.

We are simply relentless atm, great change by Lampard to switch to the three at the back

 

[ptr]

Simms is on his arse, didn’t stop running all night. Absolutely fucking superb

 

[Jamesimus]

Possession is nine tenths of bollocks. Look at the attempts on target!!

This. Boro fans might think they played well and they’d be right in saying they were decent in possession. But we created far more good quality chances and it shows.

 

[Shannerz]

Wow.

Absolutely bonkers.

 

[covcity4life]

Kitching has been immense since he decided to drive forward. Fair play to him.

3 at back allows for overlapping CBS

Think kithcing used to do this at Barnsley?

We can use this formation if need be. No need to panic about injuries

 

[Johhny Blue]

We are going up aren't we

Possibly

 

[TomRad85]

Lesser teams with lesser managers crumble there. We looked like champions tonight. Bad news for the rest of the league is we've just got our best player back too, I almost forgot how good he was.

 

[procdoc]

Had to withstand a lot of pressure but the character in this team is something else

 

[Jamesimus]

We are going up aren't we

Yes. There. I said it.

 

[shmmeee]

Ellis Simms man

 

[Bernie Rhodes Nose]

I need a (large) drink!!!

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Kudos to Lampard as well tonight .
Bringing Kessler-Hayden on and doubling up out wide really negated Boro at times .
Then the timing of Rudoni and Allen subs turned the tide in our favour

Yeh he definitely did it at Barnsley. He's good at it.

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Up until 80 minutes we were absolutely awful lets be honest.

Massively under pressure, pressed in, panicked back line.

Then it just came to life not only after we tweaked the system, Rudoni came on and Boro started to tire.

The never say die attitude is pretty incredible to watch.

 

[Si80]

THIS FUCKING TEAM

 

[Jamesimus]

Lesser teams with lesser managers crumble there. We looked like champions tonight. Bad news for the rest of the league is we've just got our best player back too, I almost forgot how good he was.

I was wondering if it would take him a little while to get going. He oozed class instantly.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Fuck yeah!!!!!
Simms mom absolutely

 

[Paul Anthony]

Get in!

Jesus, talk about an emotional rollercoaster! Nervous after the first few minutes, elated when we went two up, disappointed at 2-1, in total disbelief at how it went 2-2, then ecstatic at 3-2,and beyond overjoyed at 4-2. I don't think I've got any fingernails left!

What a game of football. I'm sure the neutrals watching enjoyed it. I'm not sure I did listening to Danny Fox in the radio! He's not great for the old blood pressure!

This team really does fight till the game is won, doesn't it.

 

[SeshMouseSkyBlue]

Threw the Kitching sink at them

 

[clint van damme]

We are going up aren't we

there is no case to be made for us not to.
Doesn't mean we will, but it would take an incredible fuck up.

 

[mrtrench]

Ellis Simms.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I expect to see some serious Simms rim licking tonight.

Thats his best ever performance for us.

 

[Tommo1993]

"Coventry haven't played anyone good yet"

2 statement away wins in less than 3 weeks. Hmm.

 

[skybluecam]

Fucking hell this season is unbelievable

 

[usskyblue]

 

[TomRad85]

I was wondering if it would take him a little while to get going. He oozed class instantly.

He's a Premier League player.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Fabulous last 15

 

[pusbccfc]

Kitch when we went to 3 at the better was amazing.
