So if I’m punting, Binks and Dasilva, Eccles and Bassett. Meaning Kitching, Bidwell, Torp and Simms?

Sounds alright to me.

[M3rcian]

Just hoping my fence panels can deal with the combination of very wet for hours now and 50 mph gusts
It’s a lot worse in the South West though.
London should be fine I imagine.

I'm just outside London and it's not bad at all. A few gusts and a bit wet, wouldn't stop a park game, let alone one in a stadium.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

I am going to guess
Collins
MVE Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Torp Sheaf Rudoni
Tats Sims EMC

Dropping Eccles is the surprise. Unless he drops Sheaf instead

He did the pre-match interview so will probably be playing. Sounds like Eccles will be dropped instead, unfortunately.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Please can that translate to Sheaf holding (6) and Torp/Rudoni playing as 8’s. Genuinely think that suits all three of them the best.

Maybe the wind will assist Collins today, blow things into his hands.

Be happy with that if true. I'd have probably put Dovin back in as well

More likely blow things through his hands.

Or off the line.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Pretty happy bar GK situation with the team. Lampard likes Torp so hopefully he will be played in his best position and get the max out of him. A couple of tougher guys at the back for the physical battle today a good call.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Thought it was interesting the comment about Bidwell being a leader in the press conference from Frank. Hoping hell have a key role in the squad. If we keep we the back three idea, think he would suit that well

I think he’s more captain material than Sheaf.

He has hands?

 

[wingy]

Think we're in the eye of things atm?

[Monty]

Think Binks and Bassette will be benched due toothed suspension risk with an additional yellow. Dasilva dropped for Bidwell is a no trainer. So leaves midfielder to be benched. Could it be Rudoni rather than Eccles for Torp?

Such a good player and clearly a top pro we are very lucky to have him. Always found it bizarre robins never seemed to fully trust him.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Don’t disagree.

 

[PVA]

Would be surprised if Eccles wasn't picked.

But then with three games in a week I guess some rotation is expected.

Hoped we would see Dovin back though.

Wonder if he’ll get a new deal under Frank. Time will tell

Think he’s unlucky but think it means we have an option to go more defensive if needed or replace sheaf if he needs to come off early.

If it is Eccles his new contracts going well!

PUSB hope we smash them.

Any fans down under know of a good place to watch highlights? Been going on YouTube but end up finding the score before I see anything.

You should just be able to get them off iFollow after the game https://www.ccfc.co.uk/videos/browse

I don’t fancy paying $20 just for highlights though. Anything that’s free or closer to?

You emigrated LG? Knew you were on about it

It should be free pal, the paid service is just for the live matches. You'll need to set up a free account and then you can watch highlights like this against Burnley https://www.ccfc.co.uk/videos/0_3iiex4n5

Doing 12 months then making a decision. Been in Sydney for a few weeks now

But less of a nailed on starter. Not that it stopped Kelly

Just seen its midnight in Sydney, actually not a bad time for match.

2am kick off so 4 am finish. Awkward.

Midday and midweek kickoffs are great.

Hope he doesn't mind too much and is onboard with it all.

You can actually watch every game live on ifollow costs like £140 for the whole season.

Each game is like £5 if you just want to buy one match at a time.

I bought this dodgy box that has a Coventry city channel on it and I watch every game on that it’s fantastic! Let me know if you need any assistance

Ms. Sweeny is fine with it

 

[Nuskyblue]

Kitching was fine last season and is frozen out but has he had that many bad games? Binks is a poor defender of the ball under pressure and positionally weak. I don’t really understand why Kitching has looked worse and he’s never had a run this season

I can only assume it's to do with his disciplinary record or some sort of attitude problem because on the pitch defensively Kitching is better. He and Thomas are a better pairing too.

Binks could be a serviceable LB tho and probably should be considered there over JDS.

 

[quinn1971]

I’d give Eccles a rest today, torp sheaf rudoni middle 3, bidwell in at left back kitching in for binks and simms to start, hopefully at 3-0 up we’ll get to see Raphael
