Match Thread Coventry City vs Grimsby Town Match Thread - Saturday 24th Mar (17 Viewers)

A shout out to Miles, a season ticket holder who sits behind us - but temporarily sat elsewhere yesterday to sit with another friend. At half time, he returned to his usual area to talk to the regular group, and announced '4-0- Mc Nulty hat-trick in the second half', then disappeared to his 'new' seat. He'd have been gutted - imagine the odds on that!

Can you actually get odds on someone moving seats?

Nazon really? Was he fit? Clarke Harris ? He was gaining fitness

Nazon was numerous times on the bench and Biamou started

I don't know if it's been mentioned but I enjoyed the Grimsby fans Stone Island lot ruffling the tarpaulin after they went three nil down. Fantastic display of passive aggressiveness. I bet a few cats got a rockport up the arse last night by virtue of Mark McNulty.

I honestly think they should let them try and get across.

It would be like It's a Knockout where people would be all greased up trying to climb a pole.

They would surely all be tripping over and falling into the tarpauline and getting themselves more and more embedded as they went. Be like running through treacle.

By the time they got across they would be absolutely knackered.

How do you know he was fit or the reasons?

 

[Sky Blue Spud]

I thought Grimsby were the least physical and cynical of any club that have visited the Ricoh this season. Perhaps that it will lead to their undoing but at least they came to play football without resorting to the sort of cynical behaviour we've witnessed from most of the clubs in this league.

Thank you for the reply , I appreciate injuries , limitations etc .

Let’s start with Baylis who was shifted out wide to a surprise to many , given the immediate form afterwards Robins persisted with him there

Play your players where they have the most impact - how many times was Steven Gerrard and Paul Scholez played wide ?

Question 1 why ?

Good old Biamou the loveable rouge Who huffs and puffs , why was a 27 yo non league player signed ?

Question 2 Why Biamou ?

My final thoughts are really annoying , we should be top , todays result proves it . I cannot fathom anything from MR what he wants to do or play. I would say that the role of Doyle is one that is under appreciated by some but one of MR first inclusions on his team sheet. The rest apart from McNulty who could be L or R up front . The clue in my opinion to MR inexperience is tinkering with the goal keepers . He has given zero confidence to either by swapping them , it’s my opinion ,

I am delighted at the result , credit the lads for getting it and to MR for finally getting it together .

It could have been so much better and easier . We are in L4 after all .

When we were losing, you were calling for MR's head. Now that we're gathering momentum and 6th, you're kissing Grendel's arse and calling this player shit, that player shit...

Why don't you just stop being a whinging twat and enjoy the progress our club has made? We get it; shit league, awful matches, 4th tier blah blah blah, deal with reality.

Apologies for being so provocative but mate, you need relaxation therapy and a decent shag. I can offer you neither, so don't ask.

Bit unfair to tar Pauline!

 

[Johhny Blue]

I wait for the moment when Burge throws the ball to Haynes who hits a long ball to Biamou who scores. Unlikely I know but it would be fun on here..........

I was going to post the same scenario except that it started with a penalty save in added time against Morcombe with the score 1-1

It's a feminine sheet, so absolutely fine.

 

[Grendel]

He was fit because he often came on to play. Why you choose to deny the obvious fact he preferred trundalongamax I’m not sure.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Has the ref blown yet? Was it still 4-0. If so, close thread (before it descends into a Max Biamou offshoot - pun intended)

Right finally got rid of my post 4-0 win celebration hangover, jeez doesn't feel good to be able to raise your head off the pillow
I was doing a double celebration as the team I played for way back in the eighties Brackley Town reached Wembley in the FA trophy.
The final is May 20, so I will be off to see them there, I wonder when the playoff final is because what a week that will be if we reach that.
I think the playoff final is well before that though

I think it’s last Monday in May. The bank holiday Monday. The week after your FA trophy final.

Just need to mention that when I played for them they were completely pants, always lower half of the United Counties league
Thought i'd say it before anyone thought I must have been a decent player

The French are always dodgy and never fine, my friend.

In answer , I still want rid of Robins and that will not change , I have my own opinions . The only player I believe is poor is Biamou .

I have no frustration at all in life. I find the apathy of fans quite frustrating though in relation to this club . To prove my point scroll back to the start of the match thread when I was the person that brought up about record season way before other people jumping on the band wagon and then look at what I put at the end ...

wind your neck in

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Off topic sort of but could we this season see a record points total for a given league ? I can’t remember ever seeing say 70 points . Hmmm

Btw all stop stressing we will win this

Just for you xx
