    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    The 5 minute ITV highlights don’t show you touching the ball (apart from giving it away), they must have been looking away when you had your golden chances

    QF Draw

    We were outclassed but not embarrassed. My abiding memory was of a young Dom Hyam not getting within a mile of Ulloa at any time. He seemed miles off the pace and thought he would never make it, he proved us very wrong!

    I was watching but can’t honestly remember them, they might have seemed like chances to you but it’s all relative. Wilson didn’t have a save to make, thankfully.The only time I remember the ball going anywhere near our goal was the effort into the side netting in the second half.

    QF Draw

    They can’t have 2pm on the Saturday. Most likely 12:30 & 17:30 (or 8pm) on Saturday and 14:00 & 16:30 on Sunday. TV need at least 2.5 hour gap to allow for extra time/penalties

    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    Some ridiculous comments by some of our supporters on Twitter, etc. “Maidstone were great”, “they didn’t deserve that scoreline” and “I wished they had scored”. Why on earth do we need this love-in? They looked what they are, an extremely limited tier 6 team with a goalkeeper who looks several...

    value of win tonight in cash terms

    That’s a good effort to run 100 teams at youth level [emoji122] Fair play for making the effort but it definitely had community day/free ticket vibes

    value of win tonight in cash terms

    Walking past Tesco’s It looked like the days when W**ps used to give all the free tickets out to schools, just a nice evening out for lots of them, never to return.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    There seems to be an “accepted level” of shirt pulling and the refs largely turn a blind eye to it as they don’t want to be contentious. It should be a penalty every time, but there’s no will in the game to stop it. It should be the easiest thing to get rid of as it is so obvious at all levels...

    He picked up the knock after about 15-20 minutes and was clearly not completely comfortable after that. No surprise he didn’t come back on, but also clearly not bad enough to take him off at the time.

    Agreed. This thread really pissed me off, probably more than anything I’ve ever read on here. It was all rumour and needless speculation by people with no knowledge. None of us knew what the extent of the injury was, but the fact that the medics let Tats sit up on the pitch implied that it...

    I think it was “lights” but whatever it was, it was needed! As someone said on Friday, a sniper would be useful if they do it again. Morons.

    Reality check

    Why do you want “one of the big boys” away? Madness. Anyone at home for me, the smaller the better. The big boys will come eventually if we do well.

    The WBA game had already been moved to Friday before we got through to the 5th round.

    Sakamoto Injury

    Rubbish, he just floated it to Tats, no way was he trying to hit the space behind him. I’m not blaming Wilson for the injury, that was completely on the Preston player. I’m asking why is Wilson using that tactic, it was doomed to fail and we’re going to lose the ball every time.

    Sakamoto Injury

    It was fair according to the referee. Do you think pumping it to Tats in the air is a good tactic?

    Sakamoto Injury

    Yes, that worked out well didn’t it? He only won it because the guy didn’t jump for it. They gained possession and we’ve lost a valuable player for the season.

    Sakamoto Injury

    Agreed, but if he’s going to go long, go long to Simms. Trying to hit Tats out on the wing with an aerial ball was just daft.

    Got to wonder why Wilson thought it was a good idea to ping a ball in the air to Tats with a defender near him. Not exactly good odds of him winning it.
