Time for city to turn the bad run around, not really bothered witch strikers are started just as long as we get a few goals and 3 points.

 

[cheesehog]

Would love a win, but this has draw written all over it! 1-1 (juke)

 

[dutchman]

Whenever I forecast a good result for City I put the mockers on them so I'll say 3-0 to Burnley this time in the hope that I am wrong again!

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

cmon doyler another goal to finish em off.

 

[Nick]

Great result and good goal! We were awful and Carsley was dire!

King worked hard though!

 

[covladzak]

Been busy, only just checked the score. We seem to win if we play like poo,and loses when we play well.... I'll take the 3 points...Woohoo!

 

[BenInTurin]

great result, report sounds like it was a poor match in general but it's the result that matters!

 

[SkyBluesAndy]

Great strike by Mickey Doyle, looked even better on the replays on the Football League show

Might stick a bet on him to score again next week, if I remember rightly he doesn't score often but his goals normally come like buses - none for ages and then 2 within a couple of games.

There's only one Mickey Doyle

 

[CovInEssex]

It was a very poor game and very frustrating to watch, Gunnarsson made the difference for me after Baker (whom I do rate) played his worse game for Cov.
King still looks to have that bit more class about him, and one guesses he will explode with goals soon enough.

I know we play direct football, but Saturday - we were too direct.
