[SlowerThanPlatt]

They’ve a ridiculous side for this level and should be going up as champions, Gnonto on the bench who would probably be the best player at any other Championship club

Flying in from Zürich and can’t get back to Cov until 8… so my ST seat will be empty. Thought this game would sell out!!

 

[SleepyGinger]

I don’t think we can take Allen out

possibly play him and Grimes

Dovin
Lati Thomas Kitching
Mve allen Grimes Bidwell
Torp Rudoni
BTA

Just seen this from Jim Brown:

The current Ricoh/CBS record for a mid week league attendance is 27,243 set earlier this season v Derby.

BTA on his own? Would be like playing with 10 men.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Suspect we start with the same team. Grimes on the bench.

Which means that Matty Grimes will not have played for two weeks, didn't play last weekend won't play tonight and can't play on Saturday against Ipswich and if he plays against QPR, people will say he's not match fit.

 

[napolimp]

It's gone 2 and I don't know if Grimes is playing yet.

Fucking hell, lets hope the crowd is treated to slightly better than that shit show tonight.

Don't think we need to go as defensive as some are saying, we need to impose our own game. We are a top team in this league, or at least a top set of players and would be comfortably in the playoffs if we'd had Lampard and his team all season.

It depends on if you think the way to go is to try and out score them or to hang in there and try and nick one.

Honestly i think there's a bit more of a balance to be struck than either/or. We need to make sure we're tight of course, break up play, shit house a bit probably.. but they can be got at on the road, as seen when they recently conceded 3 at Hull.

Hijack the plane and re-route it to Coventry Airport. Uber to the ground. In your seat for kick off. Sorted.

 

[edgy]

We thinking EMC on the bench?

[SkyB]

Leeds are a prem side in all but name. Anything out of tonight is huge

They got relegated though. Nothing to fear.

 

[Major Tom]

Looking froward to tonight as it has the makings of good game.
Even if we go a goal down I don't think we have the soft underbelly we had earlier in the season and we are always capable of scoring. Leeds will be good indicator of what we are made of and how confidence had changed under Lampard. It's just a pity Wright and EMC aren't fit as that extra option of quality to bring on.

Was just about to say this.

The game is winnable. We're not playing Real Madrid!

It counts as a weekend game so the 3pm blackout rules apply. VPN would be the only way tonight

Big call from Lampard if he brings back Binks after a defensive improvement where he's mostly not played

 

[Johhny Blue]

What's the traffic like in Nuneaton this morning?

It’s quiet here in Nanoose Bay

 

[Johhny Blue]

Zero chance of a clean sheet if Binks is playing. 0-2

As the only player in the squad who’s wealthier than Lampard, Binks may be using his vast financial resources to blackmail his way into the side.

2 clean sheets in his last 2 starts

There does not seem to be a press conference ahead of the game.
