Discuss the Coventry City - Luton Town match, tactics and predictions

[Otis]

Win!

Hard fought affair though and probably hanging on at the end.

I think we will field an attacking line-up.

Think Saka might well be back in. Up front, maybe Wright and Bassette.

I am going for 2-1 to the City

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

1-3 and a chorus of boos with MR gone by the end of the day.

 

[Ccfc_Addy]

Difficult to see anything but yet another pathetic capitulation, either another 0-1 where they score their only chance or a 1-2/1-3 in which they dominate the whole time and score when they feel like it.

I really, really want us to win and for Saturday to be the point at which things finally start to turn around, but after the last few games I don't see how that happens.

 

[AOM]

Would be tempted to go with the same line up as last night for some continuity, but sounds like Torp had a positive impact when he came on so maybe could make an appearance.

Must win really, especially with the run in of games coming up

Sub 20,000 home gate and a draw

Sub 20,000 home gate and a draw

Don’t think that’s even possible this season (the gate not the draw)

Off ST's sold it isn't

But can see a lot not turning up, barely anyone buying on the day at £37 a pop the way we are playing when they can watch from home or the pub and by all accounts Luton's uptake has been poor due to the pricing as well

The reported gate will be higher but the 'real' gate will be a low one

Back to the Leamington and Warwick Man U supporters club it is then

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Sub 20,000 home gate and a draw

It will be over 22, 000 even if season tickets holders do not turn up.

 

[Offhegoes]

Back to 4-3-3.
Torp for injured Eccles, and play Rudoni deeper
Binks left back, and Kitching in for Lati
Mason Clark and Sakamoto wide
Wright down the middle.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Luton have had our/Robins’ number since League 1

 

[Ccfc_Addy]

Back to the Leamington and Warwick Man U supporters club it is then

Eh?

 

[JPG77]

This screams defeat or draw at best, Robins struggles against Luton! man..Cov struggle against them anyway! Please just turn it round and then go on a run, please, please, please....if ever we need it this is the time

 

[David O'Day]

We'll win as long as we don't play 3 at the back

 

[Hod dog]

Lose 3-0

cov have a total of 2 shots in game
The GK puts the defence in a world of trouble rolling it out to them when they are marked.
The defence pass it sideways to each other until they lose the ball
The Wingbacks will not offer us enough danger on the wings attacking and will play more as fullbacks
The midfield will just pass backwards and not drive forward with the ball and try and change the tempo
The Strikers will not control the ball when given it and the 2 shots we will have they will miss the target

we will be bullied.
Heads will drop when we go 1-0 down and will look like Luton could of got 5-6

Robins will get the sack, which if he did sign off on the transfers is probably correct, if he did not sign off on the transfers and did not want Adi to go and the 11 additional useless coaches added then it is the wrong decision.

 

[Robinshio]

I would say go back to the 1950s and just attack

Dovin
MVE Sheaf
Tavares Rudoni EMC
saka Thomas Asante Simms Bassette Wright

 

[Potbellypig]

Not just to be negative for being negative sake, but tough to see anything but another defeat.

 

[CV22SBA]

Another bogey team and they had a good win last weekend. Tough game for them tonight against Sunderland but can’t see us beating them. 0.2 Luton.

 

[robbiethemole]

Big, strong, bullying team, good at corners, we won't know who to pick up, sounds like a bad day coming!!

I have been supporting the City forever and a day and one thing is for certain... we so often pull out a win when we are totally expecting to lose.

That's football for you.

I remain quietly confident.

 

[Blind-Faith]

I would love it, absolutely love it, beating these fucking cunts, they are due a good kicking from us.

 

[shmmeee]

We never beat Luton

 

[Skybluekyle]

I would love it, absolutely love it, beating these fucking cunts, they are due a good kicking from us.

 

[Deity]

The overly physical Luton side is exactly what we don’t need next …… ugly defeat

 

[Macca]

Well nothing has changed since Tues so imagine similar performance. Might scrape a draw

 

[ptr]

Their front three will have way too much for our defence, despite them not having a great start to the season.

 

[TomRad85]

Kind of wanted a bit of revenge against Luton this season. Sadly I think we'd struggle to get revenge against Yeovil right now.

 

[Flying Fokker]

This is the start of our 35 game run in…10 points behind the play-off position and all to play for.

Easy innit? 2 pts per game will be enough.

 

[Domo]

2-1 win with a dabo pen

 

[Flying Fokker]

Big, strong, bullying team, good at corners, we won't know who to pick up, sounds like a bad day coming!!

Have they been holding themselves back just for us?

 

[skyblue_55]

I hope some of our many extra staff , have gone to Luton , watching tonight’s game , in readiness for the crucial forthcoming match.

Luton 0-0 Sunderland

Luton are peppering the goal at the moment. Their set pieces are a real weapon, they cause havoc in the penalty area every time.

 

[Matt smith]

0-3 or 1-4 luton comfortable win
