Today's the day boys and girls
If we play our part from the stands I'm convinced the lads will play their part on the pitch
COME ON CITY !!!

 

[Gint11]

COME ON CITY

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

The players just need to enjoy today and relax. Absolutely no pressure on them. They just need to win and not mess up.

 

[clint van damme]

Whatever happens, it's been an unforgettable season, for reasons both good and bad.

 

[Gint11]

The players just need to enjoy today and relax. Absolutely no pressure on them. They just need to win and not mess up.

The message has to be ‘play the game, not the occasion! Probably easier said than done!

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

Up from Kent with a car load of Cov fans yesterday. We are all up for this one. LAST !

 

[djr8369]

What a day. I just hope none of the players crack under the pressure. They should enjoy it. They’ve all earned the right to be in this position.

 

[Amcoventry]

Ref has got to keep an eye on Deeney if he plays and his off the ball fouling of Hamer in the first game deliberately trying to get him to retaliate and get sent off. Don't you just love players who say how much they are doing for disadvantaged kids off the pitch (which I fully support) but act like absolute arseholes on the pitch when they should be setting an example.

If we are losing its the refs fault! If we are winning no comment! Win today 2-1.PUSB

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Firstly, win

Secondly, win by a few goals - goal difference could still come into it.
Still have a feeling in my waters we'll come 6th and meet Luton in the play offs (which is who I'd like - although sh*te for tickets in the away leg)

 

[Ricketts]

just been for a peek at the Blues forum. I can't find a match thread. Lots on where to drink and where to park.

 

[Evo1883]

A must win .. let's enjoy it

Think they tend to do it when the team's been announced, then follow on from there. It's all a bit random - you'll find a match thread next to 'What's your favourite chocolate bar?' or 'anybody know a decent carpet fitter?'

 

[WestEndAgro]

No fuckin fighting

 

[Gint11]

What a day. I just hope none of the players crack under the pressure. They should enjoy it. They’ve all earned the right to be in this position.

Exactly. I think this was Robins point about mindset. The players have made this happen. They are the ones who have created a sell out crowd. Enjoy the achievement and the moment and flourish, nothing to fear!

I’m sure I read from Fergie once ‘big grounds and crowds affect small minds’

COME ON CITY LETS SMASH THE BLUENOSES!!!

Im going 4-0 and no I haven’t had a drink!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Let the battle of the chins commence

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Was thinking about that home game against Morecambe (0-0 borefest) that secured our play off place in the L2 promotion season.
I'll repeat that - Morecambe. Just shows how far we've progressed. The difference in atmosphere between that day and this will be palpable. Yet, in the context of things, that was a huge result in terms of where we are today.

 

[Evo1883]

Put it on here too , latest playoff odds after last night

 

[The Philosopher]

With Robins’s favourite Allen on the bench last week I half expected him to start today with Eccles dropping to the bench.

Maybe reading too far into things but with Eccles being the pre-match feature interview it looks like that’s not the case and we will start unchanged.

Can’t see Godden being dropped after scoring so it won’t be a 4 in midfield.

F*** it - just too excited and overthinking.

Swansea worth a tenner.

 

[Hutch11]

Had to be done again

 

[Evo1883]

Swansea worth a tenner.

They aren't though are they , maybe albion at best

Early bday present from the missus, the away shirt. I’m a collector though, not a wearer (she’s aware of this).

I'm not a wearer either, but I do have some pinned up in the man cave

 

[clint van damme]

I’m a collector though,

Can you clarify, women or shirts?

 

[Nick]

Can you clarify, women or shirts?

He has both strapped to the wall in his man cave too

 

[Tommo1993]

Can you clarify, women or shirts?

Stay out of my fucking attic

 

[Grendel]

If anyone intersted

Well, I woke up this morning and I’m feeling fine.

 

[djr8369]

Part of me thinking the Coventry way to do this is to lose at home today then win away at ‘Boro to secure 6th.

 

[Boosh]

Burroughs Right Wing Back?

If we make it it will be by hanging on for dear life at the Riverside for a point or 3

 

[no_loyalty]

Burroughs Right Wing Back?

That a suggestion Boosh, or you have inside info he is playing today?

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Think we'll scrape a 1-0 today. Blues have a habit of clogging things up and generally being arseholes, and have had some reasonable results recently so it won't be easy. Fadz and Bidwell back in, will need their experience.
