I must have missed getting promoted after we went out in the 4th round to Southampton...

Is this a joke or are they genuinely doing Covid vaccinations?

You also missed the bit where it says "... progressed from 3rd round..."

Isn't getting to the 4th round a progression from the 3rd?

Yes, but I think the post refers specifically to the 3rd round.

He will be a wide forward I assume. I know u like to poke fun at the kid but I'm interested to see how he does in this formation. Could be a bonus option for us

I don’t poke fun at the 22 year old man, I just don’t think he’s good enough for where we’re looking to go.

 

[Milne Out]

Took my 4 year old Granddaughter to her 1st ever match back in 2014...

Worcester City at home in the cup, hoping she'd get a taste for the great game
Needless to say, she never expressed an interest to develop her passion for the Sky Blues after that thriller

I'm not sure many fans think he is. They just went to see it with their own eyes first.

Would we recruit him now? Doubt it. He can in at a time when we needed to take low risk punts. But robins has always kept him round which gives me hope he has something in his locker.

Just want to see him play a few times on this formation before confirming any opinion I have on him

But when have all these matches been that you have seen him to base that opinion on? You were saying this before he had even played for us. I remember you said it was embarrassing fans cheering him when he came on for his debut.

Fair enough but I think he’ll end up going out on loan before being released. He’s 23 this month and never played first team football. For his own sake he needs to be playing elsewhere.

 

[chiefdave]

Running late but hopefully with it being under 20K it won't be chaos. Unless they've decided to let half the staff have the day off!

 

[Sick Boy]

The fact he’s nearly 23 and never really featured in the years of being here says it all.

The Tavares-mania of 2022 was undoubtedly hilarious for all involved, something for everyone there.

 

[Skybluecol]

Strong team!!!!!

 

[shmmeee]

Interesting team

 

[Great_Expectations]

I hope Taveres starts.

If he’s shit, he’s shit, if he’s good it gives us a impact option off the bench.

I don’t think anyone if suggesting he’s the answer, but if can add something to the squad what’s the harm.

The negativity towards him isn’t justified in my opinion.

Wright get injured yesterday???

He has been injured for a year.

 

[no_loyalty]

A very strong team, we mean business.

 

[mark82]

Strong team. Wasn't expecting that.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Good to see Kai Andrews on the bench, standout player when I watched the FAYC game.

 

[skybluegod]

Wright get injured yesterday???

Hopefully just being precautious with his fatigue level. No point risking it when we actually have options this year!

 

[Balli001]

Wright get injured yesterday???

Doubt he wants to risk him

 

[larry_david]

Hope we somehow go 2-0 up early doors and make some changes to pretty the key players

The positivity isn't either.

Hopefully we are home and dry by 70th min to give tavares some mins
