    Match Thread Coventry City v Oxford United - FA CUP 3RD ROUND - 6th January 12:30

    Slightly concerned at the number of bad tackles flying in from Oxford now. Last thing we want is an injury to a key player.

    Not sure how our first goal went in. Their goal was poor decision making from Palmer and Wilson should have done better but it wasn’t easy. Second goal - excellent from Simms, hope that gets him going. Third goal - excellent from Palmer, that’ll be a goal of the round contender.

    Took me a while to get it - then realised I missed the key part, the name of the show! Edited now.

    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.

    It took a while, and I went through phases of enjoyment / boredom, but overall Yellowstone is a good watch and worth it as it seems to up its game in S5. Massively annoying P2 of S5 isn’t out until late summer now! Tempted to stay in the genre and watch 1923 or 1033.

    Transfer targets

    Just read ~15 pages to catch up; what a rollercoaster. Started strong with the ITK back and forth, nosedived with the puns and then steadily rose to the peak with the Langstaff rumour looking pretty likely (based on the NCFC ITK). Re Langstaff, £2m seems quite high for a soon to be 27 year...

    Millwall Game Moved

    Yea, not saying it isn’t shit. I’ve missed a lot due to other commitments, childcare issues etc. Saturday games are way better for me personally as I get a whole day pass out, so I can enjoy the whole day rather than a few rushed hours due to a late change. However, I’ll still get a ST. Can’t...

    Millwall Game Moved

    Another moved game is really frustrating, and the lack of Saturday games is a bit of a joke. But it isn’t a reason not to renew a ST in my opinion. Christ, if you were there through that L1 relegation season, a few moved games is nothing.

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    Interesting how confidence can change a player! Great to see and long may it continue.

    Kelly & Fadz

    Tricky one really, as I imagine they will want to show they can still play at a decent level especially Kelly. But that point re them knowing what MR is all about, what he wants and being able to spread that message instinctively is really important, especially to a squad in transition...

    Transfer Rumour Confirmed - Bradley Collins

    The distribution attribute shouldn’t be an issue, as I’m pretty sure he was brought due to his footballing ability, but it’s not evident at this point. He dummies too much it’s actually counter productive and/or his general passing is getting worse and/or he is slow to release. Not necessarily...

    The Sheaf thing is getting a bit mental, it’s going full 180; We signed him on a perm and there was uproar; not good enough etc etc -> people start to realise he’s class and his popularity increases -> he’s now too popular and has a ‘cult’ so to counter that an anti cult is developing...

    Transfer Rumour Confirmed - Bradley Collins

    Really don’t want to come across as though he’s a boo boy or I dislike him. But my concerns re his lack of ability as a ‘sweeper keeper’ have increased and his other attributes are also coming into question too. For example he parries a lot. He’s solid enough, I’m not suggesting he isn’t good...

    Seen it back and absolutely stand by my instinctive reaction. Collins has to do better. Odd wall set up and keeper positioning.

    Desperate for Simms to do something. Once he clicks it’s another big piece of the jigsaw.

    Midfield is way too open. Fine to do that if we’re planning to play on the front foot, but we can’t do that with Godden.
