Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday (9 Viewers)

[Sky Blue Harry H]

The pitch is naff and a few players are running on empty. Fankaty, we all know, is one hell of a player, but he is trying to play without breaking down (fair play to the guy). We can all see that Wednesday are very ordinary, but we can also see that we have a lot of players who are fatigued. get Giles and another fresh pair of legs if necessary, but a point is still no bad thing at the moment.

Come on city game is there to be won if we want it need to be braver going foward stop waiting for things to happen

 

[usskyblue]

It’s more the level of performance just isn’t there...

Again

It’s half time... we have a clean sheet and an opportunity to regroup and make some adjustments.

Meltmore

 

[Briles]

Isn't it weird that the hate for certain players only happens when we aren't winning? Hopefully shippers will come on to give certain morons their full quote of whinging

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

so Walkers the new boo boy now Shipleys out?
Injured at start of season, then played with stitches in his foot and also have Covid - why not give him a bit longer rather than crucifying him after a handful of games?

I said weeks ago that there were several players we were carrying. Walker and McCallum were on that list as well as Shipley.

 

[no_loyalty]

We started off well but have let them back into it, we are still giving the ball away a lot.

 

[Evo1883]

So are they

But it doesn't give us a divine right to come here and smash them with our 2 best midfielders and our best striker all out does it... Is my point

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Right, let's be positive ladies.

We can win this!

 

[Liquid Gold]

If we can’t expect to beat bottom of the league who can we expect to beat?

Everyone we play is brilliant. Robins said so. Don’t use your eyes and see if teams are good or not. The championship is the champions league and we’re Bedworth united.

 

[Nick]

Will bookies let us bet on one of our players to be booked first for a pathetically soft challenge?

 

[clint van damme]

Nope. People were making excuses before the game. This has nothing to do with an on the day thing.

Look at how they are playing, they are all over the place. We can win this even with a depleted team.

Have some belief!

People were saying survival was the goal before the season and are now melting down when we're 17th (that's right, we've currently climbed a place), the negativity on here is fucking pathetic.

We've been shit for most of our existence but a couple of seasons of winning more than we lose in the lower leagues and it's like listening to Arsenal supporters.

We make adjustments 88th min

 

[ccfc92]

Big second half, c'mon City!

 

[cc84cov]

Anyway keeping positive let’s get at them !!!

 

[Nick]

Oh, we need to smash Paterson early doors too.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Everyone we play is brilliant. Robins said so. Don’t use your eyes and see if teams are good or not. The championship is the champions league and we’re Bedworth united.

We shouldn’t be expecting to beat anyone.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Every fucking club we play is awful of you read the match threads

Robins out if we ain't won the league by February

Why can’t people understand that people are disappointed with poor performances against poor sides without resorting to hyperbole.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Anyway keeping positive let’s get at them !!!

I give it 5 minutes into the half...

 

[shmmeee]

Need more second half but hard to see where it’ll come from. Sheaf playing well.

Tempted to put Godden, Giles and Dacosta on on 60 min for Baka McCallum and Dabo

 

[Evo1883]

Well i mean Huddersfield who fans stated on here we should be smashing are beating Watford comfortably today... It's a seriously tough league, I don't get your argument at all

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Why do they have the name of their chairman on the seats? Imagine “Fisher” on the seats at the Ricoh

 

[ccfc92]

Only 2/1 for a Penalty given...

 

[covcity4life]

Oh no mate I get it! Every game we have played is vs poor teams but we ain't winning every game

Thisnisnsinply bit good enough!!!

Robins out!!!

When the 3rd kit didn't have the city skyline on the back it was said you had to have a plain back so you could see the name and numbers. How have Sheff Wed got away with stripes then?

 

[Esoterica]

This game does remind me of Norwich and Derby away though where we'd obviously decided a point was a a decent result before kick off and then didn't adjust at all when we saw how poor they were. Hope we do show more ambition in the 2nd half. It's not always easy to manipulate intensity, especially against a team this bad with no crowds, but we need a bit more zip and to reduce the distance these passes are going into Biamou's feet.

Will be interesting to see how Baka and Biamou perform in the 2nd half and who he subs off if we need a goal - whether subs the sub for Godden or whether Biamou stays on.

I said weeks ago that there were several players we were carrying. Walker and McCallum were on that list as well as Shipley.

How you can be carrying a left back yet hardly conceding any goals? Mccallum is fine defensively just been a bit sloppy on the ball. In defence of him and Dabo they mostly receive the ball in their own half while pinned to the touchline, it's not easy.

Haven’t you heard of the anti-Coventry conspiracy?

 

[Nick]

Ohare isnt having the best game so far again, just isnt going for him

 

[clint van damme]

and I haven't said they're playing well, but I appreciate they're all inexperienced at this level and in the case of Walker has had fitness issues so I'm going to give them a bit longer before I start delighting in calling them shit at every opportunity and making sarccy comments about people who actually try and get behind them.

 

[Esoterica]

My phone just autocorrected Fankaty Dabo to Fun Kitty Gazebo. That sounds like much more entertainment than that first half.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

To be fair he regularly gets nothing from officials

He doesn't have a clue about football

Much like he knows fuck all about politics

 

[CanadianCCFC]

He’s still been our best outlet

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Get Giles on

Before the start of the season it was all a little bit unknown.

We've seen enough from ourselves and other teams for me to confidently say we are good enough to beat Wednesday.

I think a small minority that call for taxis get confused with people that are simply critiquing things which aren't at all outrageous to say.
