A Blues fan I work with said that we were the better team, also said he was impressed with our right winger Bakayoko.
Most important thing now is we enter the competition at the 3rd round stage next season!
I know him and Dabo have nearly the same hair but which did he mean?
I thought he meant Dabo at first, but he said Bakayoko the lad who scored your first goal.
I thought so but I checked the rules and it’s two separate coin tossesDoesn't it usually work that whoever wins the toss gets to pick the end or to go first? If they pick to go first then we pick ends?
Yep I agree and it seems so easy I think he thought he could nick the ballOhare or somebody else takes out their player on the byline there and then argue with the ref a little bit and the free kick is effectively going to be their only chance remaining. Even just 2 hands in his back and push him out of play and boot the ball away. It's 90+2 minutes.
They did it to us in the first game.
It’s a joke he’s got potential maybe but he shown nothing against mason or McCallumAlso, £30m talk for Bellingham is stupid. Over 2 games he was pretty anonymous. For that money and all the hype you would expect him to be running it.
Correct.I have criticised closing down for their 2 goals and I have also criticised our sitters that were missed (over the 2 games).
Correct.
Criticised our players that played well both games against a side that are a level above us. What if.
What if I wasn't born in Coventry? I might have had a football club that didn't fail most seasons. What if I was born a girl? I would be a lesbian.
Don't worry. Nick will think of something to moan about.Most important thing now is we enter the competition at the 3rd round stage next season!
Positives? When did you point them out?Mason didn't play the first game.
There is nothing wrong with pointing out the negatives from a match as well as the positives rather than just happily clapping.

All you have done is point out the negatives. Didn't see you as a glass not only half empty but a glass that has never git wet inside person.
Through the game?Have a look through the game.
Bakayoko played very well
Marosi made good saves
Dabo played well (aside from slipping on his arse a lot)
Biamou played well aside from slipping on his arse
MacFadzean was actually pretty solid
Im not just going to blindly be all rosy in a match we ended up losing after conceding twice in both stoppage times.
Nobody is celebrating about it, but you are completely over the top.Mason didn't play the first game.

Through the game?
How about since the game? Nothing in retrospect. Looking for someone to blame. Arguing about the last goal being a fluke. Bloody hell. Most would have taken where we are before the season started. Now some like yourself want more. The players are doing well. They took Birmingham as far as they could without winning. Yes it is a pisser we lost. I get that. But I don't think our players should get hammered like you do. Luck was against us. If they hadn't got that fluke on 120 minutes we would have all been saying how much we deserved to win.
Correct-one for the choice of ends and one for who goes first/second.I thought so but I checked the rules and it’s two separate coin tosses
I am at a loss to understand this obsession with which end, fans behind the goal & all this nonsense, it would have made absolutely zero difference.Correct-one for the choice of ends and one for who goes first/second.
Only reason the safety officer would get involved if there was disorder or some other misdemeanours. Lets be honest-if the Pens we’re down at the Cov end we as fans would have been doing exactly the same.
Its more the general meltdown going on, which ignores where we are, the games ahead, the performances we put in over the two games and just comes across as weird & misplaced.Posted it in the ratings thread as well?
Which players have I picked out individually and "hammered" them? Im hardly at the Bakayoko hate levels by pointing things out.
Only time the referee would get involved regarding changing the ends chosen by the player winning the toss is if the area where the kicks were being taken was waterlogged etc. Then he would go down the other end.I am at a loss to understand this obsession with which end, fans behind the goal & all this nonsense, it would have made absolutely zero difference.

Thats changed since my reffing days then..Correct-one for the choice of ends and one for who goes first/second.

from the looks of things it will be going on here well into the summerI hope the inquest ended abruptly around 23:00 pm last night among the players.
Yes it did. Think it changed about 2 years ago-definitely wasn’t in the last update regarding the Laws of the game.Thats changed since my reffing days then..
It used to be a toss for choice of ends. The 'loser' would kick first.
Well it does make a difference especially who takes the first oneI am at a loss to understand this obsession with which end, fans behind the goal & all this nonsense, it would have made absolutely zero difference.

I think he is on course to be a premier league manager in future.Think these guys have a more valid gripe than anything we feell, but I 'could' be wide of the mark .
Early days yet but I think Rickets will turn out to be a successful manager in the higher leagues in the future.
