Same old story, play well, not score and be unlucky to lose a game in which we should have scored at least 6.

 

[Warwickhunt]

should have won! created a dozen chances! defender error let them in!

 

[clint van damme]

get ball in net.

 

[hinckley cov]

This is the day our season turns, and our strikers begin to find their goal touch.

 

[MatthewWallis]

Clarke-Harris to come on at 62 minutes

25 shots 1 on target
Lose 1-0

 

[Nick]

Can you bet on subs?

 

[Nick]

They have just signed Elias Sørensen on loan. Newcastle Striker.

Decent scoring record this season.

 

[Johhny Blue]

This is the day our season turns, and our strikers begin to find their goal touch.

We owe them one after the away game

 

[shmmeee]

2-1 to them, we batter them, they score one off Hyams arse and a penalty in the last minute.

 

[Ricketts]

5-0 please.

That trip to Blackpool was a pretty depressing evening. We owe them.

Early drinks in the Manchester. Drunk blokes wearing kiss me quick hats, candy floss and 2p machines.

4-2 us

Had a few in there in my time...bloody shithole ....ha

 

[Nick]

If you don't like it in there, go up to the Castle where the comedian DJ will just abuse everybody who walks past.

Much better than the Bull and Anchor.

2-1 City

 

[stevefloyd]

Like your optimism George

 

[johnwillomagic]

Hmm not too many options but I think I would go with the following - think we may sneak a 1-0 win based on nothing really just a hunch.
Assuming players recovering from injury and assuming he will never play Brown again for mysterious reasons...
Contemplating JCH to start this one for Hiwula but deicided sub still!

Burge GK
Sterling RB
Mason LB
Hyam CB
Davies CB
Kelly CM
Davies CM
Thomas RM
Chaplin LM
Bright ST
Hiwula ST

Subs: Addai, Grimmer, Willis, Doyle, Shipley, JCH, Ogogo

SCORE GOALS, DONT CONCEDE.


Simple game ey

 

[Gazolba]

They are one of the few teams to have scored less goals than us.
However, they have also conceded less than us.
This points to a draw or a narrow victory, maybe 1-0 or 1-1.
What this boils down to is if they score first, we won't win.

 

[luwalla]

I have no effing idea... we could score a bucket load, we could have the majority of the play and they score 3, we could play dogshite scrappy and nil nil, we could score early and they score 2 late on!

Given up trying to predict what city get .... so I’ll go 2-1 cov

 

[Paxman II]

Given where we are in the table with Blackpool we must win this one.
Eager to learn from last week I would suggest and not throw a game away.
Fancy we finally will get a few. 3-0

 

[Esoterica]

Has there been any update on why Sterling was missing and for how long for? I thought Grimmer did ok for 60 minutes until he scuffed that clearance for the goal and then his crossing in the last 20 minutes was poor. Really missed Sterling's composure in the final third in the end.

Not well...should be back Sat

 

[oucho]

Thomas, Chaplin and Hiwula to score in a 3-1 City win.

I've given up on predicting the City too, so Newcastle 1-1 Watford.

 

[ccfc_Tom]

3-1 blackpool. Chaplin penalty

 

[CV22SBA]

0.0 both teams struggle to score goals

 

[vow]

3-2 City Chaplin brace.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Same team and set up as Saturday unless Sterling is fit again. Keep doing the right things and it will click and we'll give somebody a good hiding.

Tiredness on Grimmer's part I suspect. He's not played much this season and gets up and down the pitch very well and always keeps going.
