Maidstone ?

 

[Johnnythespider]

Nice to see us win a game like this comfortably instead of struggling, hopefully get a good draw in the 4th round

Like to thank Doug King for basically telling Robins we'd rather that than the yearly humiliation.

Monday evening I think

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

Can't argue with that. They are a decent league 1 side and we controlled the game at a canter. Liked the intensity in which we began both halves. Clearly nothing taken for granted. Both our goals conceded were a bit sloppy but on another day we could have had double figures. Nice to see two out of form players in Godden and Allen combining so well, albeit against a tiring team.
Hope people don't judge Tavares on his first game back in a year.

We could have scored 10 , felt a bit for Sims, great assist and keeper stopped him twice with decent saves. Thought Wilson went down like a sack of spuds for their 2 Nd goal. Yes Tavares first game back ,but his first touch reminds me of a cement mixer.

 

[SHUNT31]

If that is Godden’s last game, quite fitting he made it to 50.

First player to do so since McSheffrey?

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Good performance, no injuries and ideal preparation for Leicester game.

Monday night

 

[oscillatewildly]

Doubt it. Bit if we sold him it should be for a decent fee. He would smash it in league 1 still or low end championship team

But I think we'll keep him which means it's good for us he has got back to scoring. I would still start Simms Vs Leicester tho

How would he do it for a 'low end' C'ship club if he can't do it for a mid table one?

 

[mrtrench]

Easy, that. Everyone played well but it was men against boys. If we'd wanted to, could have scored ten or more.

Simms played really well apart from the finishing. One day I'm sure he will start banging them in; just loses composure at the critical point. For his best chance he booted it at the diving keeper when a casual chip would have succeeded.

Palmer was excellent, as was Cal. Only Tavares looked out of sorts but that's understandable.

Well played City.

 

[jim20]

Us at home against Man Utd would be good with the form they are in!

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

I almost want one of the middling Premier League team in the next round, only so we can see how close we are to their level in readiness for next August.

 

[mrtrench]

Because he would drag a mid-table side down into the bottom?

You already know we’re going to get maidstone at home

 

[Ibby]

Well done

 

[clint van damme]

Fun game, shite atmosphere.

Probably a better atmosphere than most teams produce in a routine win against lower league opposition

 

[Matt smith]

Really really enjoyed that

superb today

Kasey and sheaf were superb

onto the big one next week PUSB

 

[covcity4life]

Maidstone ?

Sutton hopefully

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Could have scored 10 and it wouldn’t have been undeserved.

Huh. We are a playoff contender and you know it

And he does alright for us btw!

 

[skybluecam]

12:30 kick off against a boring lower league team with £15 tickets. What were you expecting?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Anyway back to the transfer rumours thread

 

[Johnnythespider]

Newcastle have just beat Sunderland 3-0, that means we're as good as Newcastle

Something resembling Borussia Dortmund or Olympiakos obviously.

 

[mark82]

What was with the lack of celebration from Godden? Just down to the scoreline or is he unhappy?

 

[shmmeee]

Godden really looked pissed off right from the start when warming up TBH.

 

[Johhny Blue]

To be fair to Tavares it's his first appearance since a serious injury.

O’Hare looked miles off it when he first came back.

Tavares most likely is not good enough, but it's unfair to be too harsh on him today.

But it’s not easy to find something to bitch about after a 6-2 win

 

[shmmeee]

Tavares looked exactly the same as before his injury TBH. Fast but not very good.

 

[Jamesimus]

I want Newcastle at St.James Park next round so I can walk to the game.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Not seen him just stand still after scoring.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Nice to see us being levels above another team

Doug King is running the place properly. Win the game and it’s an opportunity to earn more money in the next round.
