Plenty others did. Never done it before either.

How can you expect the team to come out fighting when the fans give up so easily

3-4-3 I think

 

[dadgad]

Bidwell for Dasilva

 

[Ashdown]

Porky Smurf has had a field day here

I have never in my life left a game at half time until tonight. Absolutely awful with zero redeeming features whatsoever.

Did a much better job attacking our own goal than theirs. How to end your season in 45 minutes.

WBA will score 10

Only left 1 game at HT...that was Cov 0 Portsmouth 4...the season they pissed the championship by buying loads of prem players on big money (and before they went bust a few years later)

I'm kind of hoping you miss a fantastic comeback. Can't see it mind you!

I have stayed through objectively much worse games and worse times for the club. My choice to go at that time if that’s what I feel like doing.

Proper shite, 3 poor goals. Just one of those games..

Exactly. The second and third goals were especially poor. You just don't try and do what JDS did there around your own 6 yard box and the own goal was yet another unfortunate one. Avoidable though. We have had a few of those now haven't we.

Just one of those nights. So galling that it is yet again against Preston though. Hoodoo or what!!

 

[Astute]

I haven’t seen them do anything special. Just kick the ball in the vague direction of the goal and the defence parts for them and even puts it in the net.

They're nothing special. But they play high press. We try to play out from the back but have been sloppy. By the time we play the ball up the pitch they've got back in defence.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

We’ll be back to 3-4-1-2 against WBA.

Bidwell done more than Dasilva already

Get a corner and it's completely wasted

Bidwell already looking so much better.

More chance of Thomas not finding his own net

Yeah I'm in no way superstitious but they do seem to have something over us. Swansea to a lesser extent too

 

[Nick]

Need to get some of them sent off

Yeah. Four would be nice.

Nothing to do with a high press that accounts for any of the laughable goals conceded. Another goal from a corner despite bringing everyone back for it too.

 

[Alkhen]

Simms seems on it bar the final shot

 

[Nick]

Palmer slows us down

 

[procdoc]

That Millar is quality

The own goal?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

We need to get 3pts against Maidstone

 

[Sick Boy]

It’s almost like signing Bristol City and Swansea squad players isn’t the way to get promoted.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The own goal?

Disagree.

 

[Tommo1993]

Just what did they get up to on their 3 days off

 

[Astute]

Disagree.

Disagree with what?

Christ you’d argue with your own shadow

 

[Nick]

Wright gets assaulted. Nothing

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Disagree with what?

It didn’t come from high pressing.
