Match Thread Plymouth (A)- Wednesday 14th Feb (2 Viewers)

[shmmeee]

It’s weird cause last season we hit Vik early at every opportunity

Yeah but to “hit” Vik you just had to lump it to within 20 yards of him.

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We agreed a deal for him in the summer but he chose Plymouth over us.

Makes me think fuck off but Robins is renowned for chasing players over a few windows.

Did we?

 

[Liquid Gold]

Did we?

Yep. Us, Plymouth and Ipswich.

 

[Martin180]

Why’s Robins kicking off at social media? He’s been in the game long enough to know football fans are a strange breed

99% of us are erratic idiots! That’s not just Coventry fans, that’s football fans in general.

he can check out any teams socials and find that in the first minute Player A is their best player… 50 mins in Hes shite and at the end of the game he’s back to being god

Some of the stuff in every match thread an hour before kick off is just ridiculous to be honest
We have a manager who has given us 7 fantastic seasons and yet some think he doesn’t know what he’s doing every single week

 

[HadjiChippo]

Just in time for the Fa cup semis and the playoffs

We play Ipswich that day so guess he won’t be able to watch it on tv

 

[joemercersaces]

right I’m texting in that Wright is shit and we can still sign Biamou as a free agent. Then when I get on talk sense.

Better get some practice in then

 

[CCFCSteve]

Just seen the equaliser from behind the goal. If that’s off Kitching and not defender that’s a great finish

 

[covcity4life]

anyone know the time frame given for Sheaf’s return, seems essential we get him and Torp playing together, Ben just settles the whole midfield and transition.

Games end up too chaotic without him.

EDIT: just saw 6-8 weeks, fucking hell so at least early April return then a few weeks back to fitness.

Back for game after intl break I would bet

 

[skybluecam]

I don’t think we’d have signed two. We looked to have one, it changed last minute

Last minute?

Everything I've read said MacAnthony was always adamant on keeping him till the summer.

Naive to pin our hopes on a deal that was going to the 11th hour on deadline day.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yep. Us, Plymouth and Ipswich.

Where was that reported? Missed it completely

First time for everything I suppose

MacAnthiny said he accepted a bid without loan back and changed his mind.

I set em up…

Naive to think we weren’t chasing other targets too ?

It is - but that’s just general football supporters these days. If this sort of stuff is affecting players and staff they need to get a new profession.

if we’d have won today he’d have gone from clueless with team selection to messiah again.

the general consensus on Robins is that he can do no wrong but you have that period between 1 and 6 on a Saturday where the mood changes by the minute.

like I said it’s not a Coventry thing only - look at our friends in the north east, can’t get more erratic than they are with the squad and manager

 

[covcity4life]

If wasn't a good one available we shouldn't buy for sake of buying

 

[HadjiChippo]

Yeah that seems about right, hopefully we’ll still be in contention for play offs and then Ben will be back to full fitness for last few games and playoffs to push us over the edge

Hopefully still in fa cup too. U never know if we make it quarters and get a favourable draw!

 

[mark82]

Just seen the equaliser back.
Torp's delivery was shite! Knee hight to first man....Luckily kitching hooked a leg around and it found its way in!

Disagree. He played it hard and low into the crowd. Think it was an ideal delivery tbh.

 

[Darth Robins]

I set em up…

Godden heads em wide?

 

[pusbccfc]

Yep, was stood at the bottom and that was clearly the idea

 

[Liquid Gold]

Rangers re-enter race to sign Morgan Whittaker - sources

Football Insider has been told by sources that Rangers have re-entered the race to sign Morgan Whittaker, alongside Coventry, Plymouth and Sunderland.

www.footballinsider247.com

Heres an example. Says Sunderland not Ipswich so I may have misremembered.

Loads of talk though.

 

[shepardo01]

Will take it all day long, but it wasn't driven - looked like a side foot mis-hit... If kitching didn't hook his foot around the first man, it doesn't make "the crowd", is cleared easily - full-time and a defeat.
Torp has done well coming in, but got lucky with that one.

I can't imagine for a moment Robins reading the bilge on here, and even if he does, it would surely be no more than a little light relief from the day job.

I just assumed he was slowpoke

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

Sunderland losing is a great bonus.

Back in the top 6, players rested. A point there is a good result, take that.

Making those changes means we'll be able to start Saka & Wright Vs Stoke and maybe O'Hare if it is just fatigue.

Sunderland aren’t great , they won’t make the playoffs , Hull and Preston will be our main dangers

 

[Astute]

You also missed Simms having a decent game

 

[Matt smith]

I think Norwich will be there, got some good match winners

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

I do agree with you here believe it or not

 

[Gibbo]

I think that’s probably where we’re at without Ohare in the team.

...or a player like him. EMC?

 

[Matt smith]

I do agree with you here believe it or not

I thought you’re post on the football fans 1-6 was a great summary by the way

but that’s great to hear, I’ll sleep easy

 

[Matt smith]

Starting to click now

Sargeant Sara Rowe although he’s injured

can see them having a good run now

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

League position is key, chase-ee not the chaser. Plus it's nice to say we're in the top 6.

Helps shut the idiots up who think they could do a better job than me.

..... Oops. I mean Robins

There is an international break coming up in mid March so hope he's ready at the end of March.
