I'm not sure on the team or the score, but I think we'll concede in injury time.

 

[RegTheDonk]

A full house will roar us to a welcome victory. 1-0 early lead, with 11 men then behind the ball for the final 80 minutes.

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

After last night I still want to cry.
We all should receive bravery beyond the call of duty medals for supporting this massive pile of horseshit club, especially since the turn of the century.
It must be close to being mental cruelty , I wonder if we all have a compo claim against SISU for putting us through this. That would be fantastic the fans taking SISU to court.

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

Anyway I'll predict a score, well it's bloody obvious isn't it, 1-0 and into the 12 minute of added on time and we go and fuck it up again and concede with last kick of game where a free kick which is going 20 yards wide of the goal somehow hits Yakubu's beer belly and goes in top right hand corner

That's a great idea, I'm in.

He has already made his debut..

 

[covcity4life]

He has already made his debut..

is it still not a term for a first goal?

dictionary:

4. to perform (something) for the first time before an audience.

not that i care if im wrong btw lol

 

[clint van damme]

a must win!!

 

[Gazolba]

Is everybody sitting down? I'm going for a 2-1 win. We have to win some time and Gillingham are on a bad run. I don't think we will end their bad run this time.
I see us going two up, they score and then we hang on for the win.
Still see no possibility of avoiding relegation though as we need 10 more wins for that.

 

[skybluebeduff]

Can we just cancel the remaining games and chuck in the white towel? Is that aloud?

never stop believing!

It's obviously a win... 3-1 for me. We cannot seriously have this much bad luck, I feel the tide is on it's way back out.

[covcity4life]

saw the 10 min highlights

looks like we still lose alot of headers and 5050s but obviously it is just condensed action moments
nice goal from jones although their keeper maybe shuda saved it
as for our goal cant really felt it that much, lots of unlucky bounces

 

[smileycov]

2-1 win yakubu to score HOME debut goal

There you go

 

[smileycov]

2- 0 Win

 

[no_loyalty]

3-1 win, we always beat the Gills at the Ricoh

 

[letsallsingtogether]

He has already made his debut..

Ok smarty pants home Debut........

 

[Otis]

Win!

Got to happen sometime.

Last minute goal for them, but we will be 2-0 up by then.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

2v1 with our youthful forwards scoring Turd and Yak

 

[Mcbean]

Win Win eek

 

[covhead1]

Lots of wishful thinkers here.

Sorry but I think 0-2 gills

 

[Skyblueweeman]

If they're currently on a bad run, they're soon to not be on a bad run.

2-1 Gills.

 

[Otis]

If they're currently on a bad run, they're soon to not be on a bad run.

2-1 Gills.

But we're on a bad run, soon to not be on a bad run aren't we?

 

[Skyblueweeman]

But we're on a bad run, soon to not be on a bad run aren't we?

Is that then a double negative so it's now a positive? In that case, does that mean my prediction is now 2-1 Cov??

 

[shmmeee]

At home, Yak with a week to teach the others how to score.

Scrappy 1-0, much elation and maths trying to prove we can stay up. It's got to happen some time.

 

[steve82]

Gillingham drew there last 5 and yet to get a win under there new manager Adrian Pennock. (New manager hop...no bounce)
On the road they have won 3 on the opening day v Southend, then v Shrewsbury, with there last on 19th November a 2-1 win v Walsall. Drew 4....And lost 9
Of the last 3 home games City have won all 3 (2 at the Ricoh, 1 at sixfields)

 

[Astute]

Was the other home ground HR?

It must be funny for him having his coach as Tudgay he must look and shake his head.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Lose 2-1, as Yak is caught up in a last minute Nigerian ponzi scandal and all the City players have lost their week's £200 wages on it.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Couldn't be much different from last season's game which was the peak of our season imo and the best I had felt as a City fan for years. 15 months on.....

Aye, oh for the Jacob Murphy's, Armstrong's, Fleck's etc. of this world to be playing for us now.
