Nearly as silly as being "invited for a drink" and commentating on your drinking game online which turns out to be a handful of cans of carling and telling others they don't have lives as if you are some sort of international jet setting socialite?

I'm on a match thread, having a laugh. Because let's face it, supporting city is pretty hard work to endure...

You for some reason try and pick a fight with me, mainly because I draw issue with the ticket prices. Let's be honest, that's a massive part of your grievance. You're happy to pay the bill, so therefore cannot tolerate that everyone isn't like you. Then when you get called out for being a little girl for getting upset over nothing, probably because you had a cup of tea and I had something else, then try and boost your masculinity by belittling the cans of alcohol that my cousin brought over with him because it wasn't Peroni.

The only person I said didn't have a life was you, which is pretty evidently true from your babyish comments on this thread tonight.

I think we played really well first half, they will be happier with a point than us. Most would have taken a point before kick off, but I always think that's assuming you come back to get a point rather than losing a 2 goal lead. Even in the second half we had chances to finish the game. The real difference between the 2 sides in the second half was the quality of crosses that went into the box, theirs showed why they have scored so many this season ours showed why we haven't. Still plenty to play for and I think if it's the play offs we will do well.

Their fans celebrations said it all. A team that were top of L2 at a canter 1 month ago celebrating a point away like they'd just won the FA cup.

Is Farmfoods even a thing any more?

 

[wingy]

The free kicks, Yes I know the first was scored and I don't remember if Shipley was still on but I recall MR insisting Shipley took one earlier in the season (at Luton ?).
So was there a bit of a free for all tonight?

The chap that ran over the tarpaulin towards the Cov fans on his own only for the goal to be disallowed was a highlight!

Both linos were shocking all game.
View attachment 9245

How the Lino didn’t see this go out yet said the ball crossed the line for a goal kick earlier in the second half when it was nowhere near is beyond me!

 

[mark82]

Yawn

Tired fella?

Him & McNulty stood over the first one that McNulty scored.

Then 2nd half we had one central 30’yards out, Shipley was on, but McNulty and JCH stood over it and JCH landed it in Nuneaton.

 

[Otis]

We're still in with a shout. That's the only positive I can surmise from tonight. Fingers crossed for 3 pts Saturday.

Only positive?

We played well against one of the very best teams in the league, we moved up into the top 7 and maintained our unbeaten run.

Quite a few positives tonight.

Again, when you are "on the beers" playing drinking games and sitting online going on about it it's hardly putting you in a place to try and preach to anybody about having a life is it? Just because you clearly have no intention of going to games but then keep acting surprised at the price (which is the same as it's been all season) doesn't really prove any point either. You could have used up 2 match packages and saved a fortune the amount of times you haven't gone because of the price.

Nothing to do with masculinity, it's not me giving it loads about how I am playing drinking games and drinking loads with my mate. I had a Ribena before I left to go to the game, don't really need to big it up as if it's hardcore and I am living the high-life.

 

[wingy]

Yep it's overeaction time.
They could have had four and tbf so could we.

 

[sw88]

Kids party?

yep. Allergic to dairy so couldn’t have the ice cream

 

[mark82]

We played well tonight.

Yeah, didn't mean tonight so much. Bad results happen, it's more what has preceded this. It's been a frustrating season but we've looked better last few weeks. I'm frustrated at losing 2 points tonight but feel we've been too negative across the season.

 

[Nick]

I don't think we have looked better until tonight, we were awful the last few games but scraped results so can't really complain. We could and should have scored about 4 or 5 tonight, we had acres of space which we didn't get in the other games.

 

[mark82]

Must admit I was one that said he needed to go when we lost 3 in a row.
I was wrong tbh. We're in with a shout of autos and in with a big shout of playoffs. A draw with Luton ain't a terrible result. As long as we back it up with a win vs Crewe.

Same here. Was definitely wrong.

 

[wingy]

I'll be honest ,I could have gone tonight on a freebie but didn't .
Straight up I can't be bothered, not just the City but everything.
I don't think they miss me .

 

[Adge]

Yes he stopped a certain one earlier didn't he?
This is not the disaster people are making out.
Dissapoointimg Yes but prior to kick off most didn't expect the win.

He certainly did-but who’s fault was it that led to that chance? Oh yes, a bottle job who ducked out of a header on the edge of the box-Haynes!

 

[Otis]

Didn't make sense taking Bayliss off and putting Kelly on. And please ... no more Vincenti.

It does if Bayliss was carrying a knock and that's what Robins said was the reason.

Ive lost my 100% win ratio for the season tonight!!!

 

[Otis]

I'm happy tonight.

Very good game, City played well, we extended our unbeaten run and moved back into the play-offs.

What's not to like?

 

[Adge]

What was Haynes to blame for?

Being Pants!

 

[Nick]

If we were 2-0 down and fought back to 2-2 I'd be happier with a draw.

Being 2-0 up and letting in a silly goal like the 1st, then them doing the same sort of thing for it to be disallowed and then letting them do the same again to score is sloppy.

We had a drinking game whilst watching the football. What's the problem?

I had plenty of intention of going today when I found out my meeting was cancelled, but then of course as it was last minute (as it usually is when I become available to go to a game), it is always hits home about how expensive it is. I'm not the only one who feels like this, so again, I'm not sure why the shock horror from you.

It is about masculinity otherwise you would have taken my posts and ignored them. Instead you digest them like a baby and now you've been called out on trying to say I was imagining drinking beers, are doing everything you can to desperately claw back some dignity.

I always like you generally on here, you speak a lot of sense for the most part, particularly on the stuff on the pitch. Tonight you've really just made me disappointed though. There was no need to jump down my throat at all.

 

[covcity4life]

Would have taken a point but to be so close to a win is gutting

I actuslly felt we were improved vs barnet slightly so i lool forwars to seeing highlights of this one.

Hooefully we get consistency now till ens of season

We could/should have won!
Having said that I would’ve taken that resul prior to kick off and we appear to be hitting some form at the right time.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Tired fella?

No, just bored of reading the same anti Robins rubbish after any minor setback

 

[Otis]

Exactly. I predicted a defeat, so am happy with a draw.

Our backs were always going to be to the wall after that Burge mistake. At 2-1 the game completely changed.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Same here. Was definitely wrong.

Fair enough and well done for holding your hands up

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

That chance that landed to Haynes to hit in injury time......should have been buried, a scuff would have gone in!

 

[mark82]

I thought we played well against Wycombe and Mansfield.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

The one mistake was leaving Vincenti on - he was garbage in the second half.

Have to agree with that he was slow out of position and really did very little.
Should have been the first one subbed.

 

[CCFC54321]

I guess it was there biggest away game of the season but there was a few in the main stand near us and it was embarrassing. One Luton fan in a body warmer on if anyone seen him went historical to the point he ‘went with in himself’ when they scored but was disallowed and looked embarrassed afterwards he was so histerical.

Nope, happy to be proven wrong you were drinking beers. Was wrong about that. It's hardly the massive drinking game you tried to get into every post though so that's more of a case of trying to give it the billy big bollocks. In reality you had a handful of cans of Carling with your mate watching the game and were sat posting online, again not really in a position to go on about me not having a life because I mentioned it.

The price is the same as it has been all season, said at the start to buy a match package and save money if you really wanted to go which you could have used up easily by now. Obviously not too bothered and just want to moan every game that you wanted to go but you can't because of the price.

 

[Mcbean]

Pitch held up better tonight than Saturday which was amazing given the rain - now hoarse having a beer having shouted at the referee way too many times - i wonder why - twat kept turning away at the wrong time

However - Enjoyed the game - yes we lost two points but we gained one important one PUSB
