Very lucky to be level but we'll take it.

Get Allen off for Sheaf and move Shipley forward

The way Godden hung in the air and stretched to score that, with a perfect downwards header - class.

 

[Nick]

Got it on for the second half now!

 

[Liquid Gold]

NOW FOR FUCKSAKE GET A FUCKING GRIP

We knew there’d be games like this. They’re better than us, more expansive and patient on the ball. This is a leaning process. Give them a break. MR will make the adjustments he thinks necessary

Literally not one person has said we’re shit or anything like that. You’re overreacting way more than people are who are discussing bits of the game. We’ve been mainly poor and therefore there are more comments that aren’t glowing full of praise.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Great time to equalise but we need to just get a grip on this game and attack them.

 

[fernandopartridge]

the ref won't give COH anything. So no surprise he dint give the pen.


Theres was soft. But we need a rocket up our arse at half time. we are far to deep.

Not sure if thats due to shipley playing in Kellys roll and dropping back to much or generally all team is deep

It is everything to do with it, this is not a criticism of Shipley but its just the way it is

 

[Otis]

HONESTLY. I missed both I have the game on whilst cooking, must've missed about 5 minutes of the entire game but missed all the action!

Some fan you are!!

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Giles comes out of that with credit, Godden hasn’t had much to work with, other than that somewhat disappointed
Still feeling positive though

 

[fernandopartridge]

I don’t think Shipley has been as bad as some people have made out.

He hasn't but he can't be what he isn't, he has been OK when on the ball but he's anonymous off it

 

[skybluepm2]

In more important news Liam Kelly looking freshhhhhhhh in that cov tracksuit. Where do I get one

was thinking the same! I’m off up the club shop tomorrow! Website has next to no training gear still

Allen concerns me more than Shipley tbh

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

QPR are really pressing us hard, so we can't do the lovely, neat passing in midfield. We're not used to being pressed so hard, especially by 'better' players than we're used to playing. I only hope QPR start to fade a bit in the second half.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

commentator apologises for any bad language men shouting yes you fucking bastard in their living rooms may have heard from the players!

I shouted the same thing.

 

[stupot07]

Great to get in half time level. Need to come out and play a lot better second half.

Shipley is better in the attacking positions. Allen been weaker. I’d be tempted to bring Sheaf on for Allen and move Shipley forward.

 

[Tommo1993]

Are they seriously talking about players not taking a knee?! Fuck off

Rotherham did it last season and we looked dodgy but they were one of the few to pull it off

 

[covmark]

Really poor half. Decent goal though, great cross from Giles. He's getting more joy going forward than Dabo atm.
We should have had a blatant pen and there's was soft.
If we pull our fingers out, we'll win this.

Good to see Sky concentrating on the football......

 

[procdoc]

Can’t argue with that

 

[LilleSkyBlue]

It's been a long time since I've seen us so totally outplayed. Men against boys.

BUT (1) why did the ref give a penalty? McFadz got the ball and their player fell into him with his momentum. BUT (2) class header from Godden.

I don't remember the O'Hare penalty shout.

This has been a very worrying half of football. Don't know how much it's us off the pace or them just a class above.

 

[Nick]

I fucking hate this woman presenter. Her from only fools and horses.

Why are they making a big deal about not taking a knee? We didn't take the knee in the first game either.

 

[skybluereeve]

Allen been woeful. We have been awful so the plus is we won’t be that bad again.

 

[Blind-Faith]

I don’t think Shipley has been as bad as some people have made out.

He hasn’t been That bad, he just hasn’t done anything, looks lost And gets the balls and gives it away

 

[Paul Anthony]

You know, I'd forgotten how stressful City games could be...

 

[Marty]

Fuck off sky, talking about the knee not the football

 

[Alkhen]

Oooop QPR not taking the knee. Gonna get dogs abuse

 

[slyblue57]

I suggest we get Shipley off asap and get Sheaf on. I ve no idea what Shipley is offering to the team at the moment. I ll accept i m not Robins tho.

 

[Grendel]

Dire game. Bizarre body language from McFazdean for the penalty - was dubious but he just seemed to have no interest in protesting

Got back in with first meaningful effort

Take a point now

 

[shmmeee]

Allen off for Sheaf. Needs more steel in the middle and Allen is offering nothing. Shipley at least offers a goal threat and and understanding with Godden.

 

[Deleted member 4439]

No knee, good. Point has been made, give it a break.

 

[Evo1883]

We surely have the energy to press hard second half, I think or more so hope that the second half will be much better

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

I’d like to take the opportunity to apologise to the forum for suggesting we should start Walker over Gooden for the start of the season. I’m glad my previous comments about him being capable of 10+ goals looks decent value too!

Can definitely see us dropping an AM to accommodating 2 strikers in games like this!

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

I don’t think Shipley has been as bad as some people have made out.

I'm a big Shipley fan, but he's no Liam Kelly replacement in the middle. He's doing an okay job today slightly out of position.

 

[Harry Krishner]

13th in the league and just two points off the playoffs!
