Our league rivals have won again tonight, promotion through the play offs is a big ask… a win on Monday and an FAcup quarter final victory is a much more realistic route to fame and riches this year

I’m very calm but realistic ….2 wins , one against a 6th tier team …..gets us potential riches against 13 matches with a depleted and thin squad gets us a sniff of a two leg play off ?One round of league games go against us and playoffs is a big ask?
There’s 39 points to play for and there’s a 3 point deficit from 6th where we have edge on GD.
Calm yourself.

People being far too cautious of them. I want nothing more than to get through to the quarters and this side will easily get through. Ipswich made a lot of changes and the expected goals in that match was 5-1 to Ipswich. It was an absolute freak result that happens once in maybe 100 games of football.
We have got to be sensible and rest as many as possible after PNE and before WBA which is an absolutely huge game.
We could desperately do with our injured players back. Having Torp Sheaf and Allen back would make it so much easier to rotate as Lati can then move back to covering right and centre back.

Then play the much rotated team and beat Maidstone and full strength vs WBA and stay in contention for the cup and promotion. Everyone's happy?Respect your view.
We will beat Maidstone, even with much rotated team- we won’t win fa cup
WBA - the springboard that could give us huge - high % chance of us winning playoffs than fa cup.

We say IF, because us Coventry, bumpkin folk, is quite humble.I'm enjoying all this chatter. We are a tier 6 side. Our regular strike force can't play. We have one other striker that can play. If Appiah is ruled out we will probably play an injury prone centre back that is 50:50 to make it. We could/should have been 4 down at Ipswich after 15mins. It would be lovely to come and win again but realism says that you ain't gonna score just one from 38 chances. We had our day in the sun and it was wonderful. It is nice to be brining another big crowd but all this nonsense about if you get through.
What I hope for most is that we remain competitive for as long as possible to keep the atmosphere up
1 goal or 10, we are on a hiding to nothing. I hope Maidstone make a fist of it but we do get an early break though. I love the romance of the FA cup and be nice for their fans to get some enjoyment.No debate for me, play our strongest 11 and put on a professional performance to get through
Be it 1 goal in it or 10 goals in it, I don't care as long as we don't lose as it would be embarrassing

I hope not but you are probably right. I just hope the fans from the County League, Kent League and Ryman League plus realistic newer fans can make enough noise to show our appreciation for what has been a fantastic cup run. It would be nice to score.We put 6 past a team in the playoff positions in the league below us and realistically it should have been more. I really don't get the panic or worry playing against Maidstone. The game will be won by half time.
Yea, that's normal. They'll send them out in one go RM24.Spoke to the ticket office this morning, apparently any tickets that haven’t been put on ST cards haven’t been sent out yet…

I agree, I was a little concerned seeing as my Watford tickets arrived yesterday. If all else fails, then I‘ll be queuing at the ticket office on the night of the game.Still time
Should yepOur U21's should be beating Maidstone comfortably.
I haven’t looked into your squad availability at all, why can’t your strike force play ?I'm enjoying all this chatter. We are a tier 6 side. Our regular strike force can't play.

On what basis?Our U21's should be beating Maidstone comfortably.
I selected "add to ST" and received an e-Ticket for the game last night. Same thing for the other 3 in our group. I'm in club Coventry but no reason why it should not be added to our ST cards.Spoke to the ticket office this morning, apparently any tickets that haven’t been put on ST cards haven’t been sent out yet…
I had 4 tickets added to ST cards but needed a 5th so requested postage.I selected "add to ST" and received an e-Ticket for the game last night. Same thing for the other 3 in our group. I'm in club Coventry but no reason why it should not be added to our ST cards.
Yup.On what basis?
Look at the teams we loan them out to, often levels below Maidstone. I’m fairly confident our U21s would get absolutely bullied and lose.
Key word is loan, not sold. Rare for U21 players to go to other league clubs.On what basis?

All the good ones on loan to National League teams ;-)Our under 21s are hardly pulling up strings either.
What? If they’re good enough of course they’d be going out to L1/2 clubs (see Burroughs, Obikwu, Howley in Scotland). They’re just not very good.Key word is loan, not sold. Rare for U21 players to go to other league clubs.
Don't underestimate what an achievement it will be if we manage to make the play offs again.One round of league games go against us and playoffs is a big ask?

Calm yourself.
Burroughs & Howley are first team players not U21.What? If they’re good enough of course they’d be going out to L1/2 clubs (see Burroughs, Obikwu, Howley in Scotland). They’re just not very good.

Not me I’m afraid. Lying here with elevated leg after a knee replacement.How many of the 20k season tickets have bought for this game I wonder...

Went to watch them last year, they drew to Cov Sphinx and only won on penalties!On what basis?
