Match Thread Coventry City vs. Tranmere Rovers Match Thread - Sunday 13th Oct (8 Viewers)

We have to be more clinical if we want to be challenging near the top. Tranmere are hopeless, no better than the teams we played in league 2. If we can’t put these to bed then we’ve got no hope!

Random but, did you do your driving lessons with a bloke named Plumb?

I think we are playing quite well, but the time wasting and the ref leaving it unchecked is irritating

 

[mark82]

It's just frustrating. We could be really special if we had end product.

 

[Hobo]

This referee is useless

In fairness the view he had it would not have been clear. The linesman though?

 

[SBAndy]

This is really poor. It looks pretty but we create very little. When we do create we can't finish.

Wouldn’t say it was really poor; it was ok but lacking end product. Just don’t think we go through the phases quick enough at times.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Shipley been missing so far not involved would be tempted to bring Kelly on

Yeah think Shipley has been pretty anonymous, a few nice touches but hasn't moved to open up the game like Westbrooke has. No idea why we persist with his set piece delivery (apart from the short corner)

It's just frustrating. We could be really special if we had end product.

Another frustration is Godden always being One Step Beyond the last defender. It's Madness he can't stay onside

 

[Evo1883]

We need to get forward quicker, the problem is we retain possession but allow them to regroup in the process which makes it much harder to create

Agreed, our best moves have been where we have, one or two touches and in.

Yes it needs to be moved quicker mate

 

[mrtrench]

Beautiful passing; shapes and movement - but also frustrating to watch inasmuch that the final ball/shot always seems to go awry. I have no idea what the missing factor is - what turns this side into a similar one to when McWankty was scoring or when Bright was here? If Robins can find it he'll have a really great side on his hands. Because it looks that good elsewhere on the pitch.

 

[Hobo]

We are doing alright. Tranmere are not a bad side and certainly won't finish in bottom three.

Final ball just needs to be a bit better. Hiwula has been served a couple of dogs dinners when he has made good runs in the box.

 

[cc84cov]

Be tempted to put Kastanner on for Shipley with O’Hare moving more central

 

[lifeskyblue]

Playing ok...nice football up to final third. Hiwula let down by first touch, no real service to godden. Think McCallum and Dabo doing well going forward. Definite handball by their defender. Ref has been poor throughout

What’s happened to Darren? Giving us nothing today?!

Fair play to Dabo for taking their man out after he did Walsh. Shame Walsh didn’t stay down as might have given ref a different call to make!

overall a pretty naff half. Has either keeper had a shot to save yet?

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

We just need a break, a goal off someone's backside will do, we lack a little confidence in the last quarter atm

Do you think we’re passing for the sake of passing? Passing ourselves to death and it caused more bad than good.

Yes, I’m slightly concerned.

You've got to blame, the selecter, Mark Robins for picking him ahead of Kelly.

 

[theferret]

This is worrying for me. Tranmere are poor, but for all our good play, we just don't seem to create anything. Hopefully we'll wear them down, but at the moment this has 0-0 written all ovet it. Plenty of time to go though, and surely the chances will come.

 

[sw88]

We’ve limited our left hand side with the team we’ve put out today.
Change needed imo

 

[fellatio_Martinez]

My big prediction is that Godden will be offside again.

 

[sw88]

Too much too young for some of our players today.

 

[Tommo1993]

The short and long, Tranmere are poor and have nothing to offer. Not winning would be a crap result.

 

[Evo1883]

Sometimes yes, the centre halves often have a forward pass available but choose to go back or sideways.
We've played relatively well but we need to be quicker and more direct at times

 

[jordan210]

Time waiting in first minute of half !

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Godden offside AGAIN!

 

[Nick]

Godden loves an offside

 

[fatso]

Goal on its way!

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Goddammit!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Godden !!!!! Oh my great play by hyam

 

[Nick]

Bad miss

 

[mark82]

Oh my Godden

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Losing faith in Godden
