Embarrassing that when Callum O'Hare came on for his debut, the idiots starting singing Shit on the Villa. That is his home club and they have loaned him to us. How is that going to encourage the young lad to run his heart of for us? A bit of appreciation/respect/thanks wouldn't go amiss.

Yer, not great is it

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

I like the dinked corners too, much like McAllister used to do with little success.

Fixed

Another good result and clean sheet with a young, makeshift, back four. McCallum will be very unlucky to be dropped but Dabo will come back in. I thought Wakefield on for Jobello late on was a good move,as was O'Hare for Westbrooke, but not sure I'm happy with taking our main goal threat off for Baka when only 1-0 up. Still, we won so doesn't matter.

Dropped off a bit second half, possibly due to midweek game and the heat but even so didn't seem like they created much.

That twat Grendel is obviously in a bad mood as we've won again. He hates that as it gives him less chance to moan and complain. So he's looking for a fight. That's right - we have a poster who hates to see us do well.

He actually posted a couple of constructive and positive posts last week after being majorly taken down by a couple of posters on here - but it was only a matter of time before the old twat returned with his nonsense.

A totally ridiculous post , I don’t know the guy personally but from his script here we are better off having a narrative than not , which he provides and grounds comments.

3 points.

That's all I give a fuck about right now.

He’ll play left back Tuesday

Wonder if we can get brown out on loan

Maybe, if MR wants to give Mason a rest. Also wonder if he'll leave the centre backs as is so Fadz can fully recover. Think we might see O'Hare come in for Westbrooke to give him a rest.

Do we reckon Watford will play a slightly weakened side? I think they might and we'll have a half decent chance of causing the upset.

Idiots

Idiots

Yes, & that came shortly after some homophobic chants aimed towards the Gillingham fans. Embarrassing.

I’ll be generous & pretend that I think it’s because the second half was a bit dull, so a few numpties were trying to keep themselves entertained.

They’ve had a poor start to the season. If we nick an early goal & get 3000 fans singing, we stand a strong chance.

BREAKING:
SISU announce plans to built St. Andreu’s stadium in the Coventry City Centre. The stadium has been named after Coventry City legend Tony Andreu, whose name sounds like Birmingham stadium liked by Coventry fans “St. Andrew’s”. The provisional design:

Surely named after not only tony andreu but also Ian St john

Really ?, that’s shocking

One of their fans was wearing a pink polo shirt - you can guess the rest

 

[Hullinho87]

What are you on about?

You said after the Bolton result, we were a couple of injuries away from a relegation fight or getting relegated .. so just checking in on that hyperbolic comment? ...

Assume there are cameras in st Andrews who can identity people ?

It’s needs to be wiped out of football. People need to have a good look at themselves.

I can guarantee that no one will come fwd, admit to being part of it and explain why.

We’ve played 5 matches

 

[Hullinho87]

We’ve played 5 matches

We’d played 2 at that point and won one.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Needed Kastaneer to stir things up

 

[Grendel]

We’d played 2 at that point and won one.

And we’ve now played 5

 

[Hullinho87]

And we’ve now played 5

And so which injuries would put us in as relegation potential?

We hadn’t signed Godden so I guess I can’t say him

Imagine a midfield long term without Kelly and Shipley say

 

[Spurs 'City Away Kit' Kit]

How long until we got 11 points last season?

15th September

 

[Kieranp96]

Aye, a win is a win. Just wary about the goals scored tally. Other teams are doing to Bolton what we should’ve done - there’s winning and there’s obliterating teams. One day we’ll be 1-0 up again in the 90th minute and it’ll bite us on the arse.

What does it matter if you win 1-0 or 10-0 3 points at the end I would take 20 1-0 wins than 20 3-3 draws.

Shipley, we’d be ok.
But I reckon, like with Kelly for us, there would 8 to 10 clubs that if they lost their best couple of players would struggle, perhaps more so than us with just being Kelly down.

Tight jeans and sailors pumps?

Tutu and ballet shoes?

Point missed completely. Never mind eh.

 

[Ricketts]

They had come all the way from Kent to support their team, who aren't very good to watch. They don't need any abuse.

Their fat, ignorant, crooked manager, however........

 

[Ricketts]

No points missed, we got all three.

I emailed the FA after some of our fans sang what I assume to be the same song at the Cambridge goalkeeper. Never even got a reply.

 

[Kieranp96]

And what's the point? Scoring goals don't always mean you win games, don't get me wrong scoring goals is nice but we are just getting our fitness still missing 3/4 key players we will be a force once they are all on the same wavelength.

Not so sure with an under fire manager.

That’s poor. Did you email the club, they won’t want it

No. The point was that sooner or later, sitting on one goal won’t be enough.
