Well, you can't win them all.:facepalm:

LastGarrison · Aug 28, 2012

Proper cup tie.

Deserved win. The Edge didn't seem to lose a header and Baker had a stormer.

Roll on Crewe away.

Dont worry you haven't

ccfc92 · Aug 28, 2012

Well done lads!!!!

Baker Amazing and The Edge had King in his pocket

covkid69 · Aug 28, 2012

baker was immense tonight....just maybe we have turned that corner we've been on about for a while....great result pusb

ThisManHere · Aug 28, 2012

Shocking until we scored but dominated the whole game after that. Fully deserved win.

Baker MOM but honestly thought every player gave 100%.

Question is, was that the 'Shaw Effect" or was it just the players playing for their places? I don't care what it is as long as it continues....

Great result let hope it give everyone a lift to kick start out season, now for 3 points against Crewe Saturday

RichieGunns · Aug 28, 2012

Fantastic game!!! Well done Baker!

Worried about Edj as he was limping for most of extra time. Fingers crossed he's ok for Saturday!

Nick · Aug 28, 2012

Can anybody else listen to CWR online yet?

ThisManHere · Aug 28, 2012

Edge has put his wrestling career behind him, turned black and decided to play for City. Good stuff all round.

corky · Aug 28, 2012

Great result，brilliant game lets hope this is the start of
the rest of the season PUSB.

kg82 · Aug 28, 2012

Baker - bloody hell!! He was excellent, quite possibly his best performance in a Cov shirt. Deserved his goal.

LJC_CCFC · Aug 28, 2012

Linnel saying lee Clark is under pressure - idiot

Whens the draw for the next round?!

Dan Griffin · Aug 28, 2012

And what teams??

westendunited · Aug 28, 2012

Watched the game on tv I know it's only one game but it meant the world to Shaw he never sat down such animation and passion just what we need

cyril · Aug 28, 2012

The edge was a beast after half time. Also thought brown played well once they understood each other.
Tbf Birmingham looked like they could rip us a new one until we started pressing the ball as a compact unit. They were almost having to result to hoofball. Fair play for the turnaround shaw.
Just note how cool RS looked incomparison to Clark who looked like a twocer on speed

It looked like he had cramp as he was stretching it out at the end of normal time. Only to be expected I suppose as he hadn't played 90 minutes for us yet!

Diehard Si · Aug 28, 2012

Great all round performance, I think the only player that didn't impress tonight was Ball. But all the rest seemed great. I'd bin Ball off, send him back to Derby and get another target man in.

Special mentions obviously to Baker and the Edge.

He looked it

Notorious B.I.Girimana · Aug 28, 2012

I'm determined not to judge Shawsy on one game and declare him my choice as gaffer....

....but christ that felt good!! HE'S THE MESSIAH, AND I SHOULD KNOW, I'VE FOLLOWED A FEW!!

mrtickle · Aug 28, 2012

Still aint won a game in normal time yet. Bump'

lordsummerisle · Aug 28, 2012

Only going by Al Jazeera online, but looked a much better all round game after the shaky start.

Still playing good football, but more direct with it, no pissing about passing between our defence and midfield in little triangles til reaching the half-way line and having no idea what to do then.

Do wish that Murphy would catch the fucking ball though sometimes!

Daggenum I think

@richh87 · Aug 28, 2012

IMO this was the players feeling bad that they let Thorn down - and giving their all in his honour.

Cracking performance. Want to see Baker in that role for a few games and not McSheffrey.

Agree about murphy ...

@richh87 · Aug 28, 2012

Idiot Linnell suggesting this is something of a giant killing. :facepalm:

IrishSkyBlue · Aug 28, 2012

ya i was shitting a brick every time a cross went christ murphy really needs to practise on his catching unreal performance from baker he really went at them shaw must stuck few energiser batteries up his arse for the game plus 2 lines of speed he tore into brum!

TheHellion · Aug 28, 2012

Well, what an incredible couple of days! Tonight was exactly what was needed after the weekend. The important thing now is to build on this result and the performance, and keep the momentum on our side. I freely admit I did have a flutter in my stomach when it went into extra time, knowing our record for conceding late goals of recent times, and I really thought that perhaps we'd shot it by not wrapping it up in the 90. But all credit to the lads, for going that extra 30 minutes and getting the win. Onwards and upwards? Let's hope so!

Think SSN said the draw is Thursday before the live game (Northampton v Wolves)...

sw88 · Aug 28, 2012

Passionate, committed, wanted to play!

Not many times I get to say that!

And Stats show what we can do if we put our minds to it!

"@CovCityFC_LIVE: After 122 minutes: 52% possession for City, with 19 shots (5 on target) and 4 corners #skyblues #pusb" (sorry to copy a tweet, I know it annoys a few posters).

When was the last time we had 19 shots?

First goal - played to feet
Second goal - low, hard cross (albeit via a deflection)
Third goal - persistence!

Safe to say I'm blooming happy tonight!

Ball won us several free kicks in their area after he came on. Give him a chance before sending him back to derby!

I think they call them penalties

He just needs to fall over in the box and they will be penalties lol or he's very confused as to where penalties are won lol
