Listened to bits and pieces. Missed the both goals and the last ten completely. Sounded like the sort of away win you grind out when you haven’t had one in months. Another clean sheet too. And fair play Allen for getting a goal.

Three points next week and we’re right in it arent we?

We are, but I just can't see us doing it.
We've got a run of 2 games a week coming up and Robins only has 13 players fit who he seems to trust so they're going to have to stay fit and pit in a lot of minutes.
I don't think its sustainable.

 

[Tommo1993]

A lot of us are guilty of getting a twitchy arse recently, I am. No danger of the drop now, unfortunately I think we’ll fall short of top 6 too.


Current bottom 3 are piss poor, though Hudds and Blackpool both won today. All of these are in trouble.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

You OK mate? Do you need to talk it through with us?

Stop embarrasing yourself.

 

[Gint11]

Only 5 points from 4th to us. All about who puts a run together. We’re now 14 from bottom 3 so it’s safe to say we haven’t got to worry about that.

 

[PVA]

Stop embarrasing yourself.

You're the one lashing out after we've won a game to get ourselves in the playoff hunt

Sunderland play Rotherham midweek ..

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Average first half but looked very good second. McNally looks a proper player. Think we beat Sunderland. PUSB.

 

[Tommo1993]

Just in corp lounge. Apparently:

“The Coventry goalkeeper kicked it and hit him (a kid) and (kid) he lost a tooth”.

There you go.

Kid should should frame that tooth.

If true Wilson will be mortified I’m sure.

 

[Evo1883]

And we've conceded 1 goal in 3 games with fadz back in the team

One game at a time. We have a reasonable record against Sunderland and Godden, Panzo, Dabo and Sheaf to come back shortly. This team is just as capable of putting a run together as not and the teams we play are favourable.

I agree but we are prone to both ridiculously good and poor runs with no in between.

Allen mom

Let the records show that you are not allowed to use the fact you have shoehorned this in as a way to deflect until Allen’s next shit game.

I still think he’s not good enough but I can’t comment on today as I didn’t see it. Hope he played well but honestly no idea.

 

[baldy]

If true Wilson will be mortified I’m sure.

He’ll probably pull a stupid face & try & be a clown about it

 

[Sick Boy]

You're the one lashing out after we've won a game to get ourselves in the playoff hunt

And you’re the one going on about bedwetting after a win.

 

[Evo1883]

Maybe we can settle that he's a useful squad player that doesn't cost too much money , at the very least

 

[SkyblueDad]

What a magnificent all round performance from the whole team, not a weak spot throughout which will probably disappoint our resident Allen and Wilson knockers. Hard to pick a m.o.m but for for his leadership, organisation & inspiration I’d go for MacFadz. He must be a dream for McNally & Doyle to play alongside.

 

[covcity4life]

Millwall beat sheff utd. We beat millwall. Sheff utd beat us. Anyone can beat anyone. This league is all about one game at a time!

Take a draw vs Sunderland but if we win it's time to post the Kelly hard on pic

 

[shmmeee]

Yeah Id keep him around, just think we need better in his position.

This

Think it's important not to allow the forum trolls to turn people against Allen himself. He gives his all. If his all isn't enough it's not down to him not trying it's just ceiling on his ability at this level.

He was fine today I thought. Hopefully plays important part in beating Sunderland too!

Thought we were pretty shite first half

 

[Tommo1993]

Thou shalt not pass

 

[clint van damme]

I agree but we are prone to both ridiculously good and poor runs with no in between.

I think there's a fair few teams the same in this league.
It's the one or two who can find that extra bit of consistency on the run in who can sneak into the play offs.
Unfortunately my head tells me are squads too thin too that though I hope we can keep everyone fit and firing and defy the odds

 

[Great_Expectations]

We won convincingly on Tuesday. We won ugly today. Both of which are encouraging signs.

The potential of play offs is real and we are hitting some form.

Fadz is back, looking great and improving those around him. Sheaf still to return and Godden too.

All things are on the pitch are positive.

Why are we still points scoring over the same old SBT arguments….?!

 

[Kieranp96]

We just played 2 horrible games and got 6 points

True, but preston are bogey team as fuck, and sunderland have alot more quality than luton and rotherham as much as it pains me to say.

 

[clint van damme]

Millwall beat sheff utd. We beat millwall. Sheff utd beat us. Anyone can beat anyone. This league is all about one game at a time!

Why wait?

 

[SkyblueDad]

You would.

 

[covcity4life]

Why wait?

Cos you made my dick soft earlier by saying we can't do it lol

 

[PVA]

And you’re the one going on about bedwetting after a win.

Just laughing at people who've been doom mongering all season trying to take the high ground when we're a few points off the playoffs

 

[Kieranp96]

Persoanally see us missing out on play offs probably from games we should have won and didnt, swansea, reading just a few

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Millwall beat sheff utd. We beat millwall. Sheff utd beat us. Anyone can beat anyone. This league is all about one game at a time!

Take a draw vs Sunderland but if we win it's time to post the Kelly hard on pic

Save that for PNE away

 

[AiS86]

When's Sheaf back? I'm happy for Eccles to hold on to that spot for a while longer

 

[Ash]

Don’t know if it’s been mentioned, but that’s 4 clean sheets in all 4 away wins this season!

 

[robbiethemole]

3 wins in 3 with Keith Stroud now, how fucking weird is that?
