Nobody else wanted to go so I was stuck watching it on TV. Really gutted to miss it!

You saw it!

Leon Clarke did well. Worked hard, fought hard, scored a goal. What more do people want? Just because he's not DMC doesn't mean he's shit. The negativity does my head in. Give the guy a chance ffs.

Some people just jump on a bandwagon, and don't seem to care what it's about and whether it's right or wrong.

What did McSheffrey do that was so amazing? I don't get the hype He had good touches and got in good positions but made the wrong choices all of the time and was greedy?

 

[Skyblue4u]

Us long suffering deserved tonight and a day out at Wembley at the very least. Some pride has been restored tonight

Robins says he loves working at Coventry and is sure the off field problems will be sorted in time.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Just call us the Man Utd of league 1 with all these come backs. There was a time where if the opposition took the lead the game was over


Didn't think it was a great performance, Preston had a lot of the ball but we had more quality in the final third. Preston's 2 goals were very lucky but tbf our two were keeper errors

 

[Tomh111]

What a fucking turnaround cant believe it!!!! Would just love to see that c**t westley's face now.

 

[ricohman]

Robins is staying, he said he loves working here and Its in his blood

 

[smouch1975]

PUSB. Great result

 

[skybluebeduff]

Baker should of been man of the match.

On another note, they thought it was all over

It is now

Fully agree, Baker is my MOM.

Don't think Robins will leave us at all with all of this happening, I think he has his head screwed on and realises he can do a hell of a lot more here than at Donny, carry on in this vein then a Norwich/Southampton may not be so out of reach, but then again im dreaming

 

[scroobiustom]

Preston are a poor man's Stoke!

"Coventry do play too much tikky-takka football" - i enjoyed that quote from this evening

Northern Area Finalists 2013 that's nice

I agree. He was okay. But there were better players on the pitch. Baker was immense, defence was solid. Apart from 2 lucky deflected goals, Preston had nothing for us to worry about. Did Murphy have a save?

Sky Sports commentators seemed to think he was incredible, wouldn't stop going on at him for the whole game. He did ok, over hit about 5 through balls to Clarke and lacked composure near the end when he went past the Preston defender

You saw it!

Good point!

Great comment :claping hands::claping hands:

 

[ricohman]

No interview with Preston manager, really disapointed he must of refused the prat. At least robins gave them praise.

 

[Swanny80]

Amazing

Well done and I was wrong, after 85 mins I'd given up

 

[covcity4life]

Baker motm....Clarke will get us goals that's for sure

Mcsheff battled hard

Jordan fuxkibg shite

Wood is mistake waiting to happen

Overall poor performance amazing result

 

[SkyblueBazza]

12,600ish. .

Thanks...I thought 8k would've been good tbh. Give ten a treat like this & who knows? They might flock back yet

They usually do, they usually just take the fact he has been here a while and use that.

Some passes were overhit, was greedy towards the end when he shot across the goal when we were 2-1 down.

Fleck played worse though I think.

Watching that (admittedly on tv) on you can tell that LC is a good player. He reminded me of DMC on his debut to be honest, in that you could tell he wasn't match fit yet but still scored.

Oh incidentally, getthefuckinnnn!!!!

 

[Astute]

Leon Clarke is not the answer to replace McGoldrick shame we have him. 2 and half year contract

Were we watching the same game? Never stopped running. Never gave up and for most of the game he never had a City player anywhere near him. Did you notice how many defenders were on him all the time? This will give our other players lots more space.........and he got the winner :claping hands:

We're in league one Nick, your expecting far too much from him and falling in the trap of judging him by the standards he set at his peak.

Awful first touch though. I was slightly disappointed by him tbh.

 

[junglej13]

Sheff was involved but generally his final ball was crap - either overhit or wrong decisiion made. He looks matchfit though for the first time since he re-signed.

On another note Edge disallowed header was onside and Clarke was onside for the winner.
