Nearly put a few quid on the first goal being a penalty and all. Ahh well, 3 points will do instead

Weird, isn't it. We've taken 16 points from 24 in games where Strouds been reffing the last two seasons. Still a dreadful ref though.
And that form table is looking good. Scoring goals needs to improve but the defence deserve credit - 1 goal conceded in 6 is fantastic. MacFadzean has turned around early season questions with some stellar performances, marshalling the likes of Doyle and Panzo well.

It was a truly awful game until then - dreadful atmosphere as well.

I don't think he saw it, same with the penalty which the linesman had to give. Dreadful performance from him.

You need new batteries in your hearing aids then. Have you ever posted anything positive about the team?

Knobhead of the night....
No, not Bash for his awful tackle.....not Rob Styles for his poor officiating....not Hecky for his questionable tactics.....not McAtee for his rash tackle and no, not Oli MAC for only hitting the post... The award for knobhead of the night goes to the Blade who steamed over towards the home...

Yup. Watching on the red button and the ref's view was definitely partially obscured

Couldn’t believe where he positioned himself for corners. No way he would have seen a foul on the keeper

That was one of the worst games I have ever seen. However, you will always get these matches across a 46 game season, and I was impressed how we battled, and competed against one of the most physical teams in the league.
Our flowing football from last season is non existent at the moment, but once Hamer, O'Hare & Palmer are regular starters I think it will come back.
I think Godden needs a rest, as he's not contributing enough. Surely Waghorn should now start until O'Hare is back, or we switch to the box and bring in Palmer.

The thing with the tackle if that’s what the game is about why was the tackle the only tackle of that kind throughout the whole game? Ref Lino and 4th official got it wrong and are directly responsible for when it happens again for the injuries players get as they have allowed it to go without the appropriate punishment
As for their manager. He’s just a Jeremy Hunt and given the melee in their last game needs to be hauled in front of the FA to ask him about what about the tackle was worthy of applause
I’d prefer one of his better players to be on the receiving end and to receive a career limiting injury from an exact same tackle and to show both incidents to ask him to reflect on his encouragement of the tackle on Dabo
As I say Jeremy hunt

I wish our bench made a bigger deal of the foul on Dabo.
It was right in front of then, the players and fans went mental, if the staff joined in then he could have easily walked.

Coventry – Awful. Might have been the worst side we have played. Had one shot (Hamer) and the rest of the game they gave it away, fouled and moaned. They did not keep it and looked a side that was lacking confidence. A good side would have beat them easily. One run and stupid tackle and they win it. Ridiculous they won for how bad they were but not sure we were much better? They have some quite agricultural players but they were barely tested at all. Maybe the win will kick start them but take out Gyokeres (same with us with Ndiaye) and they look a poor side and you can see why they have struggled albeit played less games.
Opponent Man of the Match – Not sure anyone was great – maybe Gyokeres just for the forward run and drawing the penalty. The two centre halves headed it and kicked it away but not sure they were great.
Opponent Weak link – Maybe the ref! He did his best at times in general play for us. Dabo could and maybe should have walked for a clumsy foul after a yellow. I think McFadzean the centre back and ex Blade is a poor player and we did not exploit him at all.

I can't recall if anyone else mentioned earlier, but what a penalty from Waghorn.
I'll be honest, when I saw him take the ball, I wasn't confident but that's as good a penalty as you'll see.
Pressure situation, end of the game, 3 points on the line, off the bench he put it away confidently with pace and great precision.
Fair play to him.

Agricultural players? Fouling all the time? Do this lot actually think the hilarious dives are for real?

Was certainly reluctant. Fair play to the linesman for actually having the courage to pipe up, (even though it is about as stonewall as they come) many don't.

You are bang on with this. If the tackle on Dabo had been the other way round their bench and players would have made sure he walked for it. As soon as the tackle was made last night it wasn't our players in the refs face, but theirs intimidating him into only giving a yellow, which was a sure sign they knew he should have been sent off.
