Make that 4 now, Rotherham beating Stoke.

We cannot score and leaking goals like a colander.

Sleepwalking into the bottom 3, Forest Rotherham Derby Wednesday all on decent form.

Good job we've got an easy run of games coming in February.

Don't know why people haven't been worried by the performances. Other teams have been getting results

I don’t worry monkey always reminds me how many points were clear

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Yesssssssss Stoke equalise

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Been saying for weeks we would be in trouble if this carried on, but a lot of people rubbished it.

Failed to score in 7 of the last 9 games. Scraping draws in games we should have won started alarm bells for me.

If we stay up I’d imagine it will be similar next season. We do not have a budget to keep building with quality players each year. It will take 3 or 4 years of constant building before we could even consider the top half.

The budget we have got we can’t be wasting on crap either

Rovrum are dogshit. We need to worry about ourselves not anyone else

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Oh fuck off... Rotherham 3

Theres fuck all he can do TBF. We’ve got maybe 13/14 players who are up to scratch and 5 are out injured, and more aren’t fit.

We’ve got fucking Kastaneer on the bench. He couldn’t even manage that last season so clearly the squad right now is lower quality, even if with everyone fit it wouldn’t be.

Today the only options we had to change the game were a couple of strikers about two divisions out of their depth and a kid who has barely played. We’ve just had to drop our one other attacking option in Giles because we can only get loans in.

He’s making some poor decisions and he’s still too reluctant to use his subs like he’s always been. But you can’t make a silk purse out of a sows ear.

Just play 2 up front and maybe have a go when it’s clear the games pattern no ?

Thats ok if we have someone who cannactually get some balls up to them and not long punts because that hasnt worked

We work it wide and cross to 1 man

Sunday league tactics

Stoke equalised again!

I think it’s clear Györkeres wasn’t fit today. We need to have a go at two up front, but being honest Max is miles off the level and other than that we haven’t had two fit all season.

Part of the issue is the first two goals came out the blue and then its game over. You can’t plan for Hyam being shite and our entire defence forgetting how to block a shot.

We just don’t have the quality in forward positions.

AFC please keep posting about Stoke goals it is seriously cheering me up

 

[fernandopartridge]

I don’t know how you’d have coped in some of the top flight seasons. 95/96 and 96/97 we won one or two games max before December and probably spent 90% of the season in the bottom 3.

Will hopefully be quoting this in 2 weeks

No internet forums. Saying that - when we lost i used to whallop the Mrs with a rolled up version of The Pink. I miss that paper.

 

[no_loyalty]

Barnsley are dropping

 

[mark82]

Barnsley are dropping

They only need a few more wins to be safe. They'll finish above us comfortably.

 

[covcity4life]

So just to confirm Rotheram didnt win and this thread a pile of shit from drama queen

This.

Fucking hell it's hardly shock of the century.

 

[procdoc]

We went into the league campaign with only Fadz having played fairly regularly at this level.

We went into the league campaign with the second lowest budget and a tiny squad in terms of quality

Horrific luck with injuries has hampered this already thread bare squad

Everyone expected us to be in a relegation dog fight due to all of the above circumstances.

the over reaction by people is pathetic

By mentioning 96/97, are you, in a roundabout way, suggesting our fortunes could change by playing Baka at centre back... With him scoring exclusively from headers at set pieces???

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

This.

It's the way we're going about it.

We aren't even putting up a fight.

Getting outplayed is one thing, but by and large we aren't. We are more competitive ability-wise than people think.

Sorry but this is not true. We're putting up a fight we're just getting beaten by teams that a better, quicker, faster, more clinical than us.

People have been saying it all season. When we pick up a win its apparently a fluke or its because the opposition gifted it to us.

When one of our relegation rivals picks up a result its apparently because they're putting up a fight and showing belief.

 

[covcity4life]

If we are not being outplayed then we are putting up a fight? Lol
