We need to capitalise on this

Yep we definitely need to take a couple of chances, as we are used to with city there is a good chance we won't and end up conceding a late goal

Is it my imagination or away game match threads getting quieter? :emoji_frowning2:

We're playing well. That would probably explain it.

Burge with a Burge-esqe kick

Always expecting it even more when we have hammered them all game to give them a last minute goal.

More annoying than getting pasted.

As poor as we played against Swindon we could/should have taken the lead early in the game...3 or 4 early chances.
So yes need to take chances as we rarely keep clean sheets.

I'd be tempted to put Jones on soon while they are ropey at the back.

 

[sw88]

Another free kick we cross instead of shooting

 

[Nick]

9 shots, 4 on target but 5 off target now according to ccfc stats.

They have had 1.

I was close to the pitch for that game and I agree that we should have scored early but we still would have lost anyway because we were totally overrun in midfield and were wrong side of their players constantly, we were hammered in midfield which put pressure on our weak defence and even without players like Ajose etc against you it will lead to a loss

 

[Nick]

Corner to them.

 

[Nick]

Shrewsbury change, hopefully the game wont change for the worst.

 

[Nick]

Freddie Ladapo on for them I think it was, 4 in 9 according to his Wiki

 

[torchomatic]

Come on Slade make a change.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

I find it funny that even with 19 minutes additional time, we still try our best to concede in the dying seconds.

Anyway, sounds good. Let's try and put the ball in the net.

 

[oucho]

Come on City, i did predict a 1-0 !!

 

[sw88]

Dangerous free kick on the edge of the area for Shrewsbury

Wonder if they will cross it

(Wasn't even a free kick offence)

We had a midfield???

 

[sw88]

Shot hits the wall

 

[Nick]

Corner to them again.

 

[sw88]

Corner that's never a corner given to them, almost concede after a miscommunication between Clarke and Burge

My guess Burge didn't shout

Luckily bounces wide

 

[Nick]

Here we go, they miss a good chance.

They make a sub, changes the way the game is going. Standard.

 

[Sky Blue 1987]

Haha apologies! I should have said players in the middle of the pitch where midfielders should have been lol

 

[Sky Blue 1987]

Dion having a good game again as usual but will still probably be dropped again!

 

[sw88]

Jones getting ready

70 played

 

[Grendel]

I'll give him a kit kat if we keep a clean sheet

Don't throw to him or he will drop it

 

[Nick]

Jones getting ready

70 played

He's read my post then

 

[lifeskyblue]

Let's hope for 20 positive mins and a goal from him

Right time to bring him on, 20 mins to run at them.
Gotta make the runs tho...

 

[sw88]

Kwayme off for Jones

Jones on to the right

 

[Gazolba]

Send Vernam on.

 

[steve82]

Kwayme off for Jones

Jones on to the right

Targeting there left back then, he any good?

 

[Nick]

First corner...

 

[sw88]

Reilly shot deflected keeper can't keep it in play

Corner

Beavon looks knackered having been sat on the ground on the half way line as that chance come about

Comes to nothing

 

[dongonzalos]

Fantastic pressure, really should have signed a striker in January

 

[Nick]

Comes to nothing

Put that in your autosuggest to save you time
