Match Thread Coventry City - Derby County Match Thread - Wednesday 6th Nov (17 Viewers)

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He's a class or two above BTA and Bassette and actually has the quality to play in the Premier League, IMO.

I think if anything he would do better in that league than the Championship. Clear to see why we were in for him even if promoted.

Wright could play in the Prem no problem.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

He is much better than Brereton Diaz and the like who get games in that league

Paul Warne is another of those managers who without checking, I think MR has a strong record against. Think he’s won every encounter except for the 4-0 at Rotherham in L1?

And if more people moved over there may be queues to get in and get a beer

There's easily the capacity really. Now they've opened the extra bar, it's easy to get served. Thankfully they've increased the range of beer and food now so we aren't stuck with just Budweiser.

 

[Potbellypig]

There's 3 bars serving 4 blocks in the corner, not had to queue this year and we sing

Anyway, 3-1 to us as they are pretty gash.

Wright could play in the Prem no problem.

I think we have a number of players who would find it easier in the prem - Wright/Simms/MVE in particular - think the hustle of the championship catches them out when they are not fully at it. Sheaf obviously also, but he's just a rolls Royce.

He's definitely got the quality to step up to the Premier league... first name on the team sheet for me tbh.
I do think Bassette is decent but clearly a long term project.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Anyone heard anything about Simms?

 

[capel & collindridge]

In Coventry this afternoon for the game. Recently joined ccfc London supporters group and think they said they often meet before home matches in the same pub. I've forgotten where. Anyone know?

Used to be Greyfriars, might have changed

Yes mate, the latest one Sims 4 is free to play on PS5 now

I thought Bidwell was the Rolls Royce?

I'll call in. If it's changed, they will probably know. Be good to meet some sensible London supporters!

I park at the Longford Engine I go down the Canal Path behind the North Stand

Go under the walk way by Tesco and then hang a left.

It brings you out at the canal pretty much!

Still away for this. Fortunately (maybe) I’ve met a Derby fan so it’ll add some atmosphere to the game, even if we will be crowded round the iPad!

Game is 10:45PM where we are, which is actually perfect as kids (and probably partner) will be asleep so no distractions!

Pretty gutted to be missing it, especially as I expect a good result and a feel good atmosphere around the place again.

2-0, Wright, Torp.

This has got slightly more interesting. I met a Sunderland fan last night, an older chap here on his own (his wife recently passed away unfortunately) and he wants to watch the game with us.

Proper fan too - ST holder etc. Knows all about the “rivalry” too!

So it’ll be nice to have some added atmosphere around the game, but can’t help feel I’m missing out on a hopefully great night at the CBS.

Still confident of a win.

 

[Evo1883]

Midweek, unglamorous oppo, won't have sold many in our losing streak.

27/28 would be good, will there be many higher attendances than that in the midweek fixtures? Looking at the last set only Leeds managed it.

22700 at Sheffield wednesday last night which is shockingly low for them

 

[David O'Day]

Fair enough to them.

It's a far better match day experience on a personal level and others we are with.

keep telling yourself that

 

[David O'Day]

I hope we fucking destroy this lot, I can’t stand them

aye, they're a proper bunch of twats

 

[Evo1883]

Not arsed about them tbh ,.but ofcourse hope we stuff them

Premier League players are obviously quicker (in mind and execution) and stronger than in Championship. You often hear managers remark when they go up that mistakes they’re making would go unpunished last year

 

[TomRad85]

Can't be arsed to hate Derby when we have Sunderland and Sheffield Utd coming up after them. I'll save my hate for those absolute pair of shithouse gormless c**t clubs.

 

[David O'Day]

we just had to suffer because they couldn't behave themselves

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Got a spare ticket in B20 suddenly become available for this one if anyone fancied it at short notice.

 

[Calista]

His kisses were sarcastic, surely ?

Or stochastic

 

[clint van damme]

What? Like ones who can remember where they're meeting?!

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Yes mate, the latest one Sims 4 is free to play on PS5 now

But will it be on the PS5 station at the cbs tonight?

 

[Nick]

It's getting dark already.
Horrible time of year for night games.

You shouldn't be scared of the dark Nick the size of you.

He’s a vampire tbf

Get to have a good look at Jerry Yates and James Collins ahead of their transfers in January

Brent-like, reckons we’ve spent well over £50m

5-0

 

[covcity4life]

John was quality, he was yet another player marked down as 'lazy' because he didn't run around like a headless chicken like the fans' favourite.

Another reason he was called lazy but it triggers guilty people...

 

[alexccfc99]

Didn’t like the way they went on at our place the other year at all, they were going through the mill (Completely down to their own hyper over spending which they actually loved at the time) then were going round playing the sympathy card, asking us to protest with them and then acted like arseholes during the match

Although the footage of them trying to storm into the Cherry Tree then in return being chased away and pasted all over the A444 made hilarious viewing…
