We need to win 2 of the next 5

Burnley (H)
Cardiff (A)
Sheffield United (H)
Stoke (A)
Rotherham (H)

2 wins and 1 or 2 draws would be nice, and the 5 after that will go a long way to defining where we are. 4 of those are at home. Blackpool, Blackburn, Wigan, and QPR

home games look tougher than away ones

You’d like to think we can beat Rotherham at home and one of Stoke or Cardiff away. Stoke are 20th

Rotherham have only lost a couple

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Yeah, lost to Wigan and got (by the stats) a fortunate draw against Millwall last night since Warne has left.

Strength is at home, they’ve only scored once away

 

[shmmeee]

Trying to convince the missus and daughter to go to this with not much luck, may be attending on my own.

Need a win, be happy with a draw, fear a loss.

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

My first home game for ages....

....its gonna be a belter.... 3-2.

 

[SBT]

Like a video of him running about to say he's back training?

Or the interview MR gave to the offal site about this yesterday
Or the interview he gave to the CT about this yesterday

Other than that we've had absolutely nothing

 

[pusbccfc]

Ticket sales well down on last week. Not surprising. Who wants to pay £33 to watch Burnley?

'Yesterday'


Fuck all other than that

From what I've read it looks like Burnley have dominated most of their games this season, but seem to lack a cutting edge to finish teams off. Hopefully they don't find their shooting boots on Saturday, and we can get a smash and grab victory. This smacks me as the right game to go with just Gyokeres up front, with Waghorn playing in the hole behind him. If Maatsen plays we know that his weakness is defensive so Dabo really needs to put him on his heels rather than vice versa.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Managed to convince the project manager to fly me home tomorrow instead of Sunday so I'll be there, meeting up with a few friends. Not overly confident but don't think we'll get spanked, 2-0 defeat at worst. Gonna plump for a plucky 2-1 win though, fuck it.

Bidwell to rifle one in and show Maatsen we don't need him.

I still don't understand why its taken so long for a 'tweaked hamstring'

Been 10 weeks ffs

Blisters take a long time to heal too, apparently!!!

How many updates do you need? Hourly scans faxed over from the medical room?

 

[SBAndy]

Er no when he’s likely to be back, I’d he in training etc

NEWS: Mark Robins provides injury update

Sky Blues boss Mark Robins has confirmed that Callum O’Hare will be on the sidelines for at least six to eight weeks.

www.ccfc.co.uk

Posted 6 weeks ago tomorrow, saying he’d be out for another 6-8 weeks. Now we had an update he was “back on the grass” last week and confirmed he’s back in training yesterday. You’re looking for something that’s not there.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

They sold 2k so should be at least 18k

 

[PVA]

There’s plenty of things to take aim at the club for.

A lack of minute-by-minute update’s on a player’s fitness levels is not one of them.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

incidentally i see nothing but a Burnley win on Saturday, hope i am wrong though

I just love it when I see lots of comments like this. Fills me with confidence.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

I've just looked at the league table, bottom, played 9 won 1, not good

I've just looked at the form table for the last 5 games...we're 11th, not bad.

Championship - Form table

This statistics show the form table of the Championship between match day 41 and match day 46 in the season 22/23.

Let's not shit our pants just yet.

Maatsen was on the bench last night. Don't know if he has lost is place or being rested. I guess we'll see on Saturday.

He did appear partially culpable on one of the goals from what I saw.
Nowhere near stopping the cross into the box.

 

[PVA]

He's started pretty much every game and has a goal and 3 assists so far. Seems to be doing well.

 

[AOM]

Confirmed starting

 

[Tommo1993]

Get this weird feeling that his return to playing will be sprung upon us like an ace up one’s sleeve. Don’t know why they’d do it, mind.

Surely he'll need a few reserve team games first? I'm not sure if he's actually in full contact training or not yet.
Think Kelly will be back on the bench before O'Hare

Never! *sticks fingers in ears*

It’s all a silly elaborate plan.

I'd love it tbf. Especially with a winning 90th minute winner against Burnley

Exactly. Ah Utopia.

A return to the late winners would be unparalleled providence, from the Burnley game onwards. ⚽️

I do fancy us to sneak this one, however, maybe a 2-1.
I’m basically going to predict a 2-1 win till it happens and then move onto last seasons favourite of 3-2.

 

[It’sabatch87]

Off the bench 95th minute exchange passes with Vik rifle one into the top corner.
Running past kompany waving shirt in the air.
C’mon Callum you know you want to!!
If carlsberg did dreams…..

That would be brilliant

 

[Covkid1968#]

Daughter insisting on coming…. So best behaviour required. Quick beer in the Anecdote before hand and then watch a one sided 0-0 draw.

 

[Razzle Dazzle Dean Gordon]

Should be a really good test this game. I think a draw is most probable but id love us to dish out a 4-1 beating from nowhere and get some momentum really building.

Fuck all other than that

Erling Haaland is yet to score aside from the 19 he already has

Sounds like a good day lets hope we score a few, do you know if the Dhillons Brewery bar does food on a Match day? Cheers
