Discuss the game on Saturday with renewed enthusiasm

Mason Clark for Sakamoto (if he doesn't make it). Otherwise same starting X1. I would imagine Weds will sit in and frustrate us.

 

[Paxman II]

Same again please. Big club Wednesday, and would like to see them back in the big time, but they are nowhere near that yet.
Another clean sheet would be nice, and a few goals. Expecting a win now.....how things change eh?

 

[clint van damme]

Be great to go in to the break off the back of 2 wins, the sky blue world will be a much happier place.
No reason we can't. The extra days rest should come in handy

There's not a chance Sakamoto will play a part Saturday .That cut will take a couple of weeks to heal properly

Should be a big crowd for this one and nice to see the away end full for once.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

They play tonight away at Bristol City at 8pm so a pretty late finish and a long journey home if they go straight back so we will have had a much longer break than them and I hope Bristol City run them ragged.

Discuss the Coventry City - Sheffield Wednesday match, tactics and predictions

That just never seems to benefit us - I seem to recall being really optimistic abut a number of games where we had extra rest...and it back fired completely

A mass pitch brawl on the 98th minute with a few red cards would be good too

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Optimistic now after last night. Would look to start the same line up, changing Tats for EMC due to injury.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Interesting decision for Robins. He tried same again v Swansea after Spurs and said he and they (the players) couldn’t do it again. But I think he has to go same again.

I fancy us to take 3 points with a 2-0 win and a 28,000 attendance

First time in the league this season?

 

[Alex1987]

Sheff Wed away tonight in Bristol has got to give us some sort of edge....

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

They’ve lost all their away games so far this season.

Extra day's rest will make a difference. Plus we're going into the game on the back of a morale boosting win rather than a gut wrenching late defeat against a PL side that we dominated for 85 mins.

Yeah, away followings have been low at the CBS so far.

Blackburn 918
Swansea 1113
Norwich 1579
Oxford 1868

I think they were pretty poor away from home last season even in their revival period, we really should be beating them

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Indeed, the only one to worry about would be Sheaf.

Thought he looked stronger the longer the game went on . He needs more minutes so start him and bring him off if he's flagging

 

[Evo1883]

Our home attendances pretty good then considering

I think I'd out Simms in for Tats and move BTA to the right. EMC was ok last night but I think Simms needs time and will start to click soon. Get BTA running at the defence again. They will be defensive so we need to stretch them

Would definitely play Simms if possible, we'll need his goals this season, and he need to build confidence.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

BTA deserves to lead the line again for this.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

4-1 win

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

BTA deserves to lead the line again for this.

His shirt to lose now. Then Norman’s if the role is to high press.

 

[Potbellypig]

Same team (EMC for Saka), same press, same desire, hopefully same result. Easy.

Blackburn Forum were exststic about bringing 900 last night saying what great support they have

We saw how effective bta is in his natural position last night constantly running at the defence and quit rightly many had him as mom so why would you put him back out wide where he hasn't been effective just to accommodate another player who is off form.
stick with the same team and build confidence with another win. Stop all this chopping and changing trying to accommodate everyone

 

[Ashdown]

Lets keep the expectation levels down again . As I said before Blackburn, 3 more points would be ideal but I want to see that level of energy and aggression and togetherness that we seemed to have lost.
Same team please if all fit apart from Saka, although not convinced by him , put EMC in there.

100%. Also it’s not even accommodating, Simms isn’t a pressing forward. We need a high press to play high in the same role just exposes him. If we play him, we need it to be with a purpose. Hopefully he uses this time to start reflecting on what he needs to do and how to get there.

 

[long way home]

If Tatsu is out then Robins has a few options open to him. But i wouldn't be making wholesale changes, just because he can. He can start the side that finished the 1st half last night and tell them to give all for as long as they can.

Even without Tatsu, Rodriguez and Allen the bench has depth. Tavares or Aiden Dausch will be brought into the squad to cover that wide position.

At first glance your avatar looks like an unopened packet of Panini 86 stickers. Every time you post its taking me back to being 10, great days. Cheers mate.

 

[shmmeee]

Same again. EMC for Saka.

When BTA tires put Bassette on.

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

COME ON WEDNESDAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!
