Match Thread Notts County v Coventry Friday 18th May (6 Viewers)

[Gibbo]

If Biamou has now scored 8 goals - given that he has not played in every game by a long chalk does that mean he now has a reasonable goals / minute ratio now?

How will County try to change it and what should we do 2nd half?

 

[Liquid Gold]

They can shut up about the pen now though with the goal and the red card.

 

[tigersb]

Max has been sensational

 

[Happy_Martian]

Its a joke Notts are back in this. Their goal came from their 1st shot on target, scored by a guy who hasn't scored in 3 months.
Apart from that sloppy moment, its been as good a 1st half performance as I'd dared hope for.

It could be argued that we shouldn't be in this tie after the penalty on Friday. Luck evens itself out. Now we just need a couple more to be safe :woot:

 

[Grendel]

Phone issues here.

We should really be out of sight by now. The goal we conceded was a bit of a freak and you have to now worry a bit.

The penalty decision is evened up by a blatant red card.

McNulty is by far the best player on the pitch.

Game should be won with the best 45 minutes we’ve seen but will mean nothing if we do not carry on.

Wtf was grimmer doing, hoof it with your left foot !.

6 in his last 11 i think.

 

[shmmeee]

If I was robins, fuck the teamtalk If be camped outside the refs room telling him to sort it the fuck out before he reports him for endangering our players. He’s buying their shit hook line and sinker every time. The man is a joke.

I think for the overall job he does for the team, and the quality of the goals that he has scored, yeah, it'll do.

Wtf was grimmer doing ?

Getting wrestled.

 

[italiahorse]

It's got to be a red for their guy there, that was a head-butt....

But why did McNulty lean in as well. Seems to then spread the blame. Just go down or hold your head.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Not really the same for both then was it? Their player moved his head in and made contact. McNulty stood laughing at him.

How's it a yellow for both?

They have had 2 decisions go their way now, the goal and foul on Grimmer and that decision.

McNulty did provoke their player by giving him a shove. That said, it was a completely unnecessary response.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

This is a cup game. They have to attack as the game goes on, and we're ruining their defence as it is. Surely we can do this.

 

[ccfc_Tom]

We were playing the best ive seen, classic cov go and concede a sloppy goal. Not looking forward to the second half.

 

[Gibbo]

Factoid alert
According to my reliable source (my daughter's boyfriend - who was at school with the Notts County scorer Jorge Grant), Grant and our sub Barrett are best mates

After a dizzying 45 mins, I have just had the overwhelming wave of depression at inevitable defeat sweep over me. After near perfection, things are starting to go wrong...

Its Normal ure a cov fan

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

If we get a third, don't jinx it this time by putting your feet up.

I’ll keep my feet up for the whole half. We don’t concede from open play much it’s always dead balls and long throws. Wish we could get organised better in those situations.

He's still better than the joke we had on Friday (so far).

 

[ccfcway]

Not lost once all season if we score 1st

Don't jinx it.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Don't jinx it.

Sorry.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Probably the best half I’ve seen us play this season, such a shame we conceded that goal at the end of the half. We were in complete control, on every 2nd ball, Biamou winning most flick ons, McNulty looks on fire and the midfield has bossed this game.

Let’s get a third and end this game.

 

[peace ndlovu]

Getting wrestled.

Absolutely. That prick Stead should have been booked and the goal disallowed.

 

[Nick]

Dont think Im going to be able to watch the second half if we dont get another goal early Heart wont handle it.

 

[italiahorse]

Mcnulty didn’t go charging towards him looking for it though

But instead of one incident we had more, especially as the other younger Cov players then start pushing their players.
Naive and let them get away with it.

 

[Grendel]

Getting wrestled.

No it was poor defending

 

[Nick]

No it was poor defending

He got wrestled...

 

[Paxman II]

we must keep the pressure on, their defenders hate us running at them. If we do that we should score again.

 

[Grendel]

Absolutely. That prick Stead should have been booked and the goal disallowed.

No it was a fair goal

 

[Happy_Martian]

#inthebag

Geez, man. How can you be that confident ??? You're a Cov fan, get the Prozac out stat !

 

[Grendel]

He got wrestled...

Nope

 

[Nick]

Especially with their defenders on bookings.

Shame we havent got somebody with a bit of pace and tricks to throw on to scare them when they cant commit into tackles.

 

[Martw]

I'm an absolute wreck, no way Im going to last another 45 mins!! - god forbid extra time....
