Coventry v Yeovil matchday thread (28 Viewers)

[Colonel Mustard]

Which is one reason why I'd have rather kept Gael & Keogh and not signed so many players!

So last season the excuse was "we have too few players", and this season it is "we have too many players".

Priceless.

What 9 players are making their debuts? That must be a league record. Who are the 2 from last season who are playing?

Errr....the centre backs didn't play together last year....or the midfielders.....or the forwards

So last season the excuse was "we have too few players", and this season it is "we have too many players".

Priceless.

There's a balance to be struck though, isn't there? We knew Sammy, Eastwood and Cranie were leaving: that's a huge chunk of wages out for a start. Keogh and Gael would have been on reasonable wages for L1. We could still have brought a few freebies in without selling them!

Is that not what friendlies and training is for?

Priceless.

And I said too many NEW players!

We would never have kept them NLHWC. Gael would have gone because of the opportunity he has been offered and Keogh wanted his move because he needs championship football to progress his career.

Any thoughts that we could have kept them arent realistic im afraid.

Doncaster 3-0 up. They will be aiming for promotion.

 

[Sick Boy]

Some people on here would make excellent politicians!

But you said 9 new players. 4 of the back five aren't new for a start. How many debuts are Yeovil giving?

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Some people on here would make excellent politicians!

You'd be shite.

 

[Nick]

How are we playing now? Anything happened?

 

[Sky_Blue_Ste]

Is that not what friendlies and training is for?

How any games did these lot play together as a team? Behave!

 

[torchomatic]

Some people on here would make excellent Witchfinder Generals.

 

[sylus]

ive seen more life in the morgue than this city side...

Sadly they dont make great football pundits. Get some new excuses for the clueless clown thorn as he will need them soon.

 

[Marty]

WBA 2-0 up v Liverpool

 

[Sick Boy]

You'd be shite.

I will take that as a compliment!

 

[Nick]

How many games have the pompey players played?

I cant see gelling being that much of an excuse!

Most teams sign new players!

 

[Ccfcisparks]

While we have this clown managing us we will not have a chance of promotion

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

I will take that as a compliment!

Thought you might!

 

[mark82]

Watching Soccer Sarurday and they keep going to some poxy Scottish Division 3 game. Who cares...

I'm not making excuses, just amazed by the impatience and arrogance!

I didn't say 9 new players were playing today for a start - the players are not used to playing together as a team - too many new players in the squad

 

[Nick]

How are we playing now? Any chances or pressure?

Do we look like we want to win? Are we pushing on or sitting back?

 

[Jonny]

Ball off for Elliot, hopefully he'll get us a goal. PUSB!

same old same old.

 

[Paxman II]

if we don't get a win here then it will make the Tuesday night game against Sheff Utd all the more difficult. The thought that if we lost to them and were 5 points behind already would not be 'hitting the ground running' as it were.
No today we need to hit the ground running all guns blazing and yet listening to the commentary it sounds like we are not exactly doing that?
We can win ugly today, I dont care but win we must.

 

[Nick]

Boring then?

 

[sw88]

So we're playing a long ball game.....and take off the tall striker!

Ball off Elliott on.

Could have made an immediate impression but Cody didn't look up and played the ball across an empty goal to no one

 

[Sky_Blue_Ste]

Some people come on here just to argue & pick fault with posts & opinions - just after an argument

 

[Marty]

under the cosh

Yep. If we don't then Tuesday is a must win.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

we need thorn out! Yeovil are average and the only reason they are drawing with us is because they have a half decent manager

 

[mark82]

Ffs. Still not playing well then?

 

[Sick Boy]

It sounds like we are well outplayed.
