Much better performance. Forwards seem to be higher up the pitch, not sure if that’s down to Robins or just as we’ve had a decent amount of pressure.

Sterling ran straight across the back of his legs. Can't believe this ref - he's reffed Prem and Champ for most of the season, wouldn't tell.


David Coote will be the man in the middle of the Sky Blues clash against The Saddlers in Sky Bet League One action.

So far this season, David has officiated in:

4 Premier League games

4 Championship games

1 Carabao Cup game

1 League One game

1 League Two game

David has officiated in 11 games during the 2018/19 campaign giving a total of 34 yellow cards and three red cards so far.

That decision aside, he doesn't seem to have any control. He isn't nipping things in the bud so it builds up when players get frustrated.

Bayliss needs to keep his head, could do with just winding them up. Especially Osbourne.

Decent half, maybe got away with one but been the better team. Let's hope we're not shit after half time again, need another goal

A result today would be a real bonus with some tough games coming up.

He hasn't been in the game too much. He does press high up the pitch a lot better than JCH does when he plays there so it does allow us to play a lot higher up.

We need to get another earlier on and just wind them up. They have been fired up since kick off.

The old laugh in their face, tell them their mum's a slag, stand on their toes etc. Let them react, just laugh some more.

This could easily be 1-1 and us down to 10.

Same as the cup game, always that worry about them scoring as they do look quite dangerous when we let them get forward and get a cross in.

have to hope the ref doesnt watch it back and then come out with a score to settle.

It was good but a lack of backpacks let it down.

Happy with that at HaT. Thomas sounds like he's having a great game again. Just need to wind them up a bit more.

Sounds like the ref is stuck in the Premiership - they do tend to struggle coming down to our league, then again, they struggle coming up into it to, and when they're in it!

Is it still OK to call them bum bags? Or even Fanny Packs?

Learned from the Fleetwood game too, players warming up before the kick off instead of just wandering back out after a 15 minute break.

Bakayoko pops up in midfield to intecept and puts a decent ball through to Bayliss.

He seems much better when he is allowed to be random rather than chasing shadows.

The ref is still missing everything.
The ball is going and they are just tripping our players over.

I'm not sure whether Brown is struggling or needs more support.

Chaplin needs to gamble and play off Bakayoko every time.

Dangerous chance for them, cross comes in. Osbourne makes the run in for the 2nd ball but shoots well over. Brown might have put him off.

how on earth didnt they give a foul on Willis then? He drew his leg back to kick the ball, their player took that leg out and tripped him and both the ref and lino stand watching.

Thomas kicks the ball off their player, ends up their throw?

I really hope a decision doesn't cost us.

Working fine in Firefox for me. Someone mentioned an issue with Chrome earlier.
