Battery Died earlier, anybody want to start them off?
Kelly stood out for me today!
About how I saw it, McNulty gets an 8 though for 2 goals and Shipley a 6. His lack of mobility holds him back. Shame because he has a great attitude.Burge 6

He had shots. They weren't good.A 2 for Barrett? I only had the forum & BBC text togo by, but it sounded like he got off a couple of good shots? anyone elaborate?
Burge 6 - Nowt to do
<snip>
Robins 5?Burge 6 - Nowt to do
Grimmer 6 - Started off well enough, but was far too wasteful in the second half, at one point putting three successive crosses straight into the keeper's arms.
Willis 7 - Commanding for the most part
Rod 5 - A little bit unlucky with his mistake, as the ball could have gone anywhere, but it was still his mistake and we were lucky it didn't cost us, because Stevenage had their tails up for 15 mins or so after.
Haynes 5.5 - Some good stuff, but mainly poor headers and misplaced passes.
Ponticelli 6 - A little lost out on the wing, but he kept battling and at least kept their fullback well occupied
Doyle 7.5 - Thought he had a very good game today.
Kelly 8 - MOTM. Best performance I have seen from him. He was everywhere and looked very threatening too.
Shipley 5.5 - Very hit and miss tonight and a number of times he gave away possession far too easily
JCH 7 - Battled well and won a lot of balls in the air. Just wish he wouldn't go looking for freekicks and fouls all the time
McNumpty - 7.5 Looked dangerous all game. Thought he was a gonna with that bad foul, but luckily their player didn't fill in the Paperwork.
Reid 6 - Average. A couple of wayward passes too, but he did give us some much needed width
Barrett 6
Biamou 6
Robins 5
Burge 6 Nothing much to do but did he give the striker a lot of goal to aim at by going early the opposite way?
Grimmer 7 Got up and down to good effect especially first half but looked offside for Kelly’s goal in the build up.
Haynes 5 One awful header when on the edge of the box, headed it back to the danger area, then went one better when comfortably beating a player and played a suicidal ball across the middle which resulted in a break on goal that was lucky for us fired over. A weak link who needs to be disposed of in the summer.
Rod 5 Shame as he had a reasonable game but it was his mistake for the goal.
Willis 7 Very solid
Doyle 7 Typical Doyle performance,done well not to overstep things with the early yellow card.
Kelly 8 Best performance in a Coventry shirt and got the goal his performance deserved. Where has this Kelly been all season?
Shipley 6 Average-nothing more, nothing less but lasted the distance I guess.
JCH 7 Battled well and chased a lost cause resulting in McNulty’s first-still the better option ahead of Biamou.
McNulty 8 Another 2 goals, the keeper needed to do better for the first but 2nd was a poachers goal.
Ponticelli 6 Deserves the start after his showing last week but a case of after the Lord Mayors show and for most of it the game past him by.
Reid 5 couple of runs and a half chance but not really long enough on.
Biamou 4 Same as above but probably touched the ball 3-4 times.
Barret 3 Waddled around for a few minutes.
Robins 8 Even he was disappointed we took our foot off the gas second half but 3 points and seeing the game out albeit against 10 men was all that mattered.
Crowd 9 Twist and shout for 15-20 minuets second half and a general all round good atmosphere. :emoji_ok_hand:
Calling someone a 'prick' could be the reason why you have only four 'likes' in 10 years.<snip> Why pricks like you have it in for Haynes baffles me.
<snip>.
Kelly motm!
Why couldnt he get forward like that all season, <snip>.
Yeah, obviously.Robins 5?
Thanks for the feedback. :emoji_thumbsup:So you give Rod and Haynes the same rating. Rod gives the ball away leaving their player through on goal which they score. Haynes gives one pass away in midfield that leads to nothing. Why pricks like you have it in for Haynes baffles me.
I thought Haynes was pretty solid today. Apart from that one misplaced pass, he done nothing wrong. I know who I'd be putting my money to go further in his career between him and Grimmer. You can quote me on this in 5 years when Haynes is playing in the Premier League and Grimmer is on the bench for Altrincham.
I don't think its fair to excessively mark someone down when they were played out of position.
Give the player an average mark, and mark down Robins.
I can understand that and I, like everyone else,wanted more goals in the second half that didn’t come. But bearing in mind we have a game Tuesday night and we saw the game out quite comfortably.Apart from Shipley who kept giving the ball away cheaply and Ponticelli everyone had a decent game Kelly definitely Motm and Mcnulty after the red card affair went off the boil as did most of the team 2nd half
The crowd were superb tonight, fantastic atmosphere and credit to the Stevenage fans who seemed to be enjoying the singing if not their teams performance for joining inI can understand that and I, like everyone else,wanted more goals in the second half that didn’t come. But bearing in mind we have a game Tuesday night and we saw the game out quite comfortably.
Anyway the crowd made the entertainment 2nd half!:emoji_smiley:
I think he took 2 shots. One a free kick into the wall and the rebound at the corner flag. Didn’t pass at all and lost the ball twice. Apart from that he did really really well.A 2 for Barrett? I only had the forum & BBC text togo by, but it sounded like he got off a couple of good shots? anyone elaborate?
well, at least he kept it on the pitchFound the second half performance so frustrating, didn't take advantage of the extra man, Grimmer constantly lost the ball trying to take on their players rather than moving the ball around, Grimmer's crossing is also very poor, Barratt just seems to be getting worse and is not an option from the bench to use if chasing a game. Burge's kicking needs to work on that, kicked it a few times straight to their goalie
