Matchday #14 Sheffield United v Coventry City (4 Viewers)

[Coventry La La La]

Sheffield United v Coventry City
Brammel Lane
K.O 30th October Saturday 3:00pm
Referee : David Foster from Tyne & Wear

Coventry City
Do not have the best record at Bramall Lane. They have come away from there with just three points from three draws in their last seven visits and have not won at Bramall Lane since a 1-0 win in 2001.

However, recent wins at Ashton Gate and Portman Road have proved that Coventry City have the ability to won at so called bogey grounds and so visit Sheffield United in confident mood.

Marlon King is an Injury doubt with Freddy Eastwood & Chris Hussey returning to full training but won't be ready to play.

Sheffield United
The Blades are having an indifferent season this year as they rebuild under new manager Gary Speed. They have one of the worst home records in the division and have only won two games at home this season, drawing one and losing three. To make matters worse, they have only scored five goals at home all season, a record which makes them the league's joint lowest scorers with Hull and S****horpe.

Hhmmm, not sure on this, it will either mirror Hull and has 0-0 all over it.........or we really are progressing and we can do em 3-1. my lack of confidence mostly stems from the front 2. bit harsh i know, but we are not that prolific as yet. saying that we do chip in goals from all over the park. hence my dilema haha HAPPY DAYS!!

Richard Wood developed in the Sheffield Wednesday academy and is a support of Wednesday so im sure he will be eager to get a goal against Sheffield United

 

[covladzak]

I'd be happy as a clam with a draw.... 0-0....Last time I was at Bramell Lane was 97 when we lost in the cup..... Bad Ju Ju there... I Like Sheffield, just not United..... Mind you I left England in 2001 no wonder I haven't been back there.....:laugh:

I would take a draw but looking at Sheffield United at the moment they are in a real mess so could be an easy 3 points to push further up the table

 

[covladzak]

Three points would be class....... I havent really paid attention to United this year to be honest... I'll hold you to your prediction then Coventry La La La....

 

[CovInEssex]

Anyone here going? We've sold our initial allocation of 1,600...

 

[smileycov]

Yea i'm going Cookie!! cannot wait
PUSB

 

[CovInEssex]

It's like a home game for you smiles! haha.

Should be good.

 

[smileycov]

Haha yea, didn't look at it that way, though s****horpe is nearer.this is a derby match

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

Im gonna go with 2-1 sheffers and platini to do the damage and put pressure on 3rd spot

 

[Coventry La La La]

I'll be listening in on "SkyBluesPlayer" its great when you can hear some of the Coventry chants especialy "Play Up Sky Blues!" hopefully someone who is actually going to the match can leave abit of feedback about the game/player ratings

Haven't heard the latest injury news, is king fit to play?????

 

[smileycov]

yes mate, he is. Plattini is struggling with a calf strain so this may force Aidy's hand regards marlon. At the moment he is unsure whether to start him or use him as sub!!

p.s. i have only just worked out your profile name haha!! DOH :laugh:

 

[Spence CCFC]

I'll be there hoping and wishing for a City win. I thought the initial allocation was 1200?

 

[smileycov]

1,600 apparently. with pay on the gate, maybe 1,800 - 2,000 going. awesome

 

[CovInEssex]

ANOTHER 2-1 City win please!

 

[Pigeon]

A win for the city. King and Gunner...

 

[ccfcadz]

2-1 Win to the Sky blues to catapualt us up the league !!

 

[Coventry La La La]

Good to see everyone in a winning spirit lets hope the team can pull of a win

 

[Jay88]

apparently platt is a doubt so marlon King is expected to start up front .. bad news about platt but a good replacement.
i'll be up there 2moz, come on city ... 2-1 win, king and macca.

 

[Pigeon]

Id like to see Baker get a go. Maybe super-sub again

 

[Nick]

I can see us winning 2-1

King and Turner to score!

 

[SkyBluesAndy]

At the moment we have enough about us to win the next 2 games, however due to the nature of this league I wouldn't be surprised if we lost the next 2 games either.

I'm going for 1-1, good solid away point

As for the scorer I think Wood is due a goal

 

[covlad1986]

Hello all,
well another match day tomorrow i will be going 2-1 to city with Macca and Tuner to score

 

[Coventry La La La]

[covlad1986]

[Clive]

I hope so.... Once he gets the one goal I can see him scoring plenty more

 

[ccfctommy]

Im going. My mate has organised a coach.

I'll go for 2-1 City!

 

[Skyblue-1987]

As long as the result is a win for City I'm not worried about the scoreline, would be good for Marlon to get on the score sheet. I will be tuned in to Sky Blues Player for the usual 8am K.O if I get the chance to get on chat line I will
