Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday - Coventry City [FA] Match Thread - Friday 26th Jan (19 Viewers)

[Como]

A bad day at the office, but at least we still are in it.

It all seemed so slow and we seemed to be working on the basis they would not score.

After all that I thought their GK had a good debut and so did Viktor.

Not a game I will remember.

Replay is exactly what we didn't want. Should have had that put to bed anyway, had the chances to do it, inevitably got punished for it.

 

[Grendel]

No I don't, I've brought the subject up several times on this forum. So again, fuck off.

He who doth protest too much

 

[robbiekeane]

Our fans were kind of asking for that to happen with the oles and chants about wembley and them going down. A replay is frustrating, but you can’t win them all. Onwards and let’s beat Bristol city instead PUSB

Extremely premature

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Bet the mighty sheff wed don’t bring 4000

 

[napolimp]

Tuesday

Or Wednesday?

 

[Perryccfc]

Never felt like we got out of second gear. Lost control with Sheaf and Torp off. Shame as I felt we could and should have put that to bed tonight.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Such a shame we've got to play these cunts yet again. Hope it's the last time for a long time.

They'll be giving Middlesbrough a run for their money.

 

[Esoterica]

Feel like the 3-5-2 is some shit mind-games from Robins. He was talking about that kind of of stuff in his interview and playing them 3 times in short succession. Over thinking it for me. They are shite and we've got a good squad. Just trust our players are a) better than theirs and b) motivated for tonight for the obvious reasons.

Bet we don't play 3-5-2 in the replay. Absolutely no idea why we've reverted back to that. Only reason that would have justified it is if we needed to play Fadz. Simms and Palmer could have played left and right in the 4-3-3.

Godden simply cannot be starting any more and Simms is hardly undroppable either, for the love of shit give me a new striker.

Not beating their team of kids is not really good enough.

I think Robins got it wrong today. With the formation, changes, and tactics.

The strikers have been really poor for a while and I've pointed out previously that they are kind of getting away with it because we are scoring goals from other areas of the pitch. They have been getting rotated usually though, as each game one is shit so we try the other, and then that one is shit, then we go back to the first one. Cycle repeats. Godden seems to be regressing badly and doesn't really have any right to shush the fans based on the last few months. Simms is really not matching the price tag and I'm still not buying that he's turned the corner.

Hopefully today can be a bit of a wake up call. I'm disappointed for the fans that made the effort to travel.

 

[robbiekeane]

I hate that formation

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Anyone know date of replay please?

The week after next

 

[Tommo1993]

Shit result. It honestly would’ve been better to lose. Or win obviously. But you know what I mean. I’ll celebrate when they scrap replays.

 

[Gint11]

Shit game. Didn’t leave 2nd gear. Both sets of players didn’t look like they wanted to play. Pitch was gash. Only highlight was Torps finish and player minutes

 

[covcity4life]

Godden and Allen awful

Awful is bit harsh but are two players I would like to see moved in the summer.

 

[mrtrench]

Another low quality half; by taking off Sheaf and then Palmer we lost all creativity in midfield. Good to see Wright back but without any service he and Simms were effete other than what they could craft themselves.

Thought Torp was really looking the part second half until he too was subbed. Allen had a chance to win it close to curtain but shot straight at their keeper.

I guess this is progress: field a dysfunctional weakened team in the past and we lost.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Their young goalie looks better than Wilson

Simms will come good. There is a player in there. Have faith.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

a replay really is the last thing we need.

You know what's going to happen we will get an amazing draw vs a big team and then lose to Wednesday

I think a draw against one of the big teams in the premier league will spur us on to win the replay.

 

[The Nomad]

Bet the mighty sheff wed don’t bring 4000

They didn't even have 4000 tonight

 

[ccfcchris]

Not feckin hard is it.

 

[covcity4life]

We were 5 mins away from winning. Formation was fine.11 unbeaten. Chill boys

 

[SBT]

New rule: Anyone who says they’d rather be out than have a replay is banned from getting tickets if we get a good draw in the fifth round

 

[Alkhen]

Am I mad to think Simms is a good target man? Absolutely needs to sort his confidence out and shoot but I actually thought his hold up play was good. Something none of our other strikers can do. Stick him in the middle with Tats and O'Hare running off him. Quality the way he held off that defender and laid the ball off perfectly for Allen who wasted it.

 

[Nuskyblue]

Fucking hell what a ball from Bannan

The reverse one?

 

[robbiekeane]

Their young goalie looks better than Wilson

He was unfortunately pretty poor and as good a strike as it was, I’d be pretty pissed off if Collins or Wilson got beat by it

 

[HadjiChippo]

The reverse one?

Yeah should’ve been their second goal really

 

[Gint11]

I’m struggling to stick up for Simms. Really poor

 

[PVA]

We should win the replay but it's just a pain in the arse really.

Apart from goalie what kids did they have playing ?

I’d take that tbh. Scrap them.

 

[Nuskyblue]

Or Wednesday?

Maybe Thursday

 

[pusbccfc]

Lots of idiots on twitter slating the Wednesday fans for the attendance. Will be a lot lower than 14,000 at the CBS I'd imagine

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Still gelling
