Really struggling for motivation to go

 

---

[Nick]

We've only started our two 20 goal strikers together in the starting 11 just 3 times this season, which is bonkers given how wells they linked up last season.

Oxford - Won
Bristol - Drew
Norwich - Lost

Only once in consecutive games, of which we got 4 points from 2 games.

Imagine if they played up front together

Moaning at Wilson again already. Didn't do a lit wrong Saturday. We were well beaten by a good side and he pulled off a couple of very good saves. Not seem the game back yet but from where I was he couldn't have done much with the goals.

 

[Boicey]

Not sure of the impact BTA will make or him alongside Wright.
Certainly a good chance to show what he can do.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I don’t know if Dovin’s good but it’s a worrying lack of faith in another player signed for a good fee

 

[Winny the Bish]

Hoping it’s Wright up front and BTA on the left but I’m ready to be disappointed.

He could have done a lot better with at least one of the goals.

One goal went through his fingers tbh we signed a keeper for over a million pound

I don’t think it would be but I’m happy with either there tbh.

 

[skybluecb]

Yeah the second goal he seemed to palm it into the net

 

[covcity4life]

Fucking Wilson

If he fucks up tonight it's hard to have much sympathy for robins despite the legend he is

Rest of team I'm happy with although wanted to see Simms and wright in same 11 personally.

Pretty sure it was said the transfer took a while because of personal terms making him one of our highest earners too.

I would prefer Dovin but have to say Wilson played well at Leeds.

Not a chance with EMC on the bench

The Wilson stuff I simply have no explanation for

 

[Grendel]

He was shite

It's madness. This season should have been the one to take the partnership to new levels.

I saw countless Leeds fans after the game laughing at the fact we’d started him.

 

[covboy9]

Think robins knows he’s made a mistake with dovin already

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Pretty expensive mistake

He dived out the way of the ball for one of the goals?

He should have saved the last 2.

 

[Evo1883]

Do you mean the recruitment , Robins said himself when interviewed " apparantly he's a good keeper " when we signed him

 

[Nick]

Think robins knows he’s made a mistake with dovin already

Same as with Collins

 

[stevefloyd]

He could have done a lot better with at least one of the goals.

So could Sheaf,Kitching Da Silva and Mason Clark

 

[Evo1883]

I'm even more nervous with Wilson because the grass is soaking wet

 

[StrettoBoy]

Surely the BBC has got Tats and BT-A the wrong way round?

 

[Nick]

Ay??

Are you on about the one just gone or a different one?

 

[mark82]

It’s fucking weird.

Particularly considering Dovin hasn't really done much wrong.

Wilson did more wrong on Saturday

It’s not about Wilson himself. It’s the fact we’ve spent a decent fee on a young keeper with a long contract yet 6 games in after doing nothing wrong he’s been dropped. Just fucking stupid management.

 

[MalcSB]

Outfield selection is ok, but I'm struggling to get my head around this Wilson business. He's absolute fucking shite.

He made 5 or 6 saves against Leeds, and how many of the three were down to him. His distribution is shit though.

 

[play_in_skyblue_stripes]

He was shite

He did very well, including a triple save.
2nd goal was down at far end and not so easy to see. Other players were also at fault for that in terms of covering and tracking back.
It was a tough game for Coventry and definitely had a good game overall.

I'd much rather have Dovin but Wilson played well. Maybe Mark R is most comfortable with his players he had for a while in this testing time for team.

Probably get a new one in January and have 2 out the squad.
