Cheeky 50p on rudoni to score from outside the box

Would’ve gone with Simms in a central role with Wright out left. Hope EMC doesn’t have another stinker.

 

[Otis]

A lot of bedwetting here.

Torp and Allen have more than proved themselves in recent months. This is a good team lineup.

Get behind the lads and let's give this one the best we've got. We can do this.

Yup. That's why I am sticking with my 4-1 prediction.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

We will win today - i reckon last minute or in some bizzare way - why ? i forgot to put my sky blue pants on today - then i remembered last minute and changed them back - we have never lost while i have worn them for matches so its a win for sure - you can all thank me later

 

[skybluecam]

Burnley are great defensively but don’t actually score that many- we’ve scored more.

Losing 1-0 is the most likely scoreline but we know we have some top players who can create and score, and getting 1 gives us a real chance

 

[SBAndy]

I agree. It's another of those really physical teams and he does get sidelined sometimes when he comes up against them.

Hopefully he will prove us both wrong

Not from a physicality perspective to be honest. I just find when we play the better footballing sides, like happened against Leeds, he just becomes a bit overwhelmed and struggles to hold onto the ball. Expect they will have a lot of ball in our half.

 

[fernandopartridge]

The worst thing we could do is concede early

 

[Macca]

I'm do think we will get bummed today but at least the 3 fixtures we were worried about will be gone and we concentrate on the real chance of achieving top 6

Well why the fuck didn't you wear them when we played Derby and Sheffield Utd?????

 

[fatso]

Agreed, we need to be right on it straight from the kick off today.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I'd be pleased with a shot on target let alone a goal.

Think it will be 0-1/2

 

[Cally Fedora]

Hate to say it but I just don’t think we will keep them out enough with Collins in goal.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I would have gone Sheaf for Allen, but otherwise that's what I'd have chosen.

Me too

 

[clint van damme]

Missing the game today as heading to Brighton for the marathon tomorrow, so I’ll be watching on my iPad on the train - probably the only Cov fan on there.

Tough game, but probably the strongest team we have. If Allen has a Sunderland level performance his inclusion is justified, otherwise I’d imagine he’ll be benched next game.

Good luck!!

 

[covcity4life]

4/5 isn't bad, and TBF the Allen change was the one I was least bothered about

You got 3/5? Simms ain't in for emc either

 

[Tommo1993]

Hells Bells. Ally McCoist would’ve loved this.

 

[steve cooper]

This is a free hit, it's still in our hands whatever happens today. I'm going for 2-0 to us.

 

[Sick Boy]

0-0

 

[RegTheDonk]

Well why the fuck didn't you wear them when we played Derby and Sheffield Utd?????

He did.
He just hadn't washed them.

 

[Johhny Blue]

I'd be pleased with a shot on target let alone a goal.

Think it will be 0-1/2

Only whole goals count

 

[Nick]

All that time. Kicks it straight out

Skys steams are so pointless as about a minute behind

That applies to most streams. Reduces the amount of buffering caused by internet transmission errors

Hilarious Johnny! A real zinger

 

[fernandopartridge]

Not managed to string two passes together yet

 

[fernandopartridge]

It was just a statement

 

[Nick]

Wow Milan

Looked offside from the other end but I'll take it all day.

Get in

 

[covcity4life]

Looked offside.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

No way

 

[fatso]

[Ccfcisparks]

[covcity4life]

[stupot07]

[SIR ERNIE]

[fatso]
