Would rather risk Wright and rest Palmer tbh

Palmer can’t play at Wembley, so use him both next games and give Haji a breather

Hopefully they will both be ok, was 50 50 yesterday morning

Come on Coventry, you can do it! Do it for Coventry fans everywhere!

Robins et al will know best, but its business time now, players will (should) want to play for places with SF and PO opportunity. Amazing what that and adrenaline can do.

Really hope we at least get a point tonight.

Saints away is my local fixture but I'm here in Florida until Friday..gutted.

actually the gutted bit was a lie.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

This a local ish fixture for me, 1hr 12m drive to my intended car park which is about 40m less than a home game!

There was a comment I read years ago, not on here, and he put ‘THEY SHOT THE THEATRES, WE’LL FIGHT TO THE GAME IS WON’

 

[Gint11]

We concede goals so we’ll need 2/3 goals tonight.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Loss tonight I think 3-1.

 

[Hincha]

Can see Robins making a few changes - set up similar to Ipswich & Leeds away earlier this season.

Will be a meltdown on this thread in circa 6 hours.

 

[hamertime]

Can see us winning this one and Norwich drawing.

 

[torchomatic]

Hoping for an easy journey and a good result. Can definitely see us getting something tonight.

Last time we went in the cup there were a few places on above bar street with a heavy Cov presence. Not sure if it will be different given that it's an evening kick off though. Think Yates and the scholars arms (greene king) were the busiest?

For any beer connoisseurs out there Belgium & Blues on the same street is a good visit.

I read somewhere that Yates is a designated away pub so may head there.

 

[edgy]

Win tonight and some serious thought will be given to increasing Blue's home attendance.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Palmer will definately start he has 11 days off after Birmingham game.

 

[Philosoraptor]

2-2

Got to be one of the best posts for a while.

I can't take the credit; Smiv who does 'On the Road' and the Palmers FC vids always uses 'Desmond' for that scoreline. Just ripped him off.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

If Wright is being rested then we can only really stick Palmer out there (Dasilva maybe but I'd rather not) and put MvE on the right without changing it too much. 1-1, Simms.

Collins
Lati Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Sheaf Eccles
Mve O'Hare Palmer
Simms

I guess the thinking might be that you can rearrange the same personnel in to a 5221 and players are in more familiar positions?

 

[Hiraeth]

Thought we were very good at home against these.

Think we should set up similarly to the reverse fixture with Eccles in for Allen and Palmer in for Sakamoto unless Wright needs to be rested in which case I'd add Latibeaudiere and shift Palmer onto the left side.

Expect we'll need to cede possession percentage to them and be disciplined in which areas of the field we press. Think we may see subs used earlier in this game than Robins normally would to try and manage the players through a busy period.

Fancy us to sneak a 2-1 tonight

 

[scottccfc]

Can't see anything but a win for us tonight

will DM you… there is one in K’worth but won’t put it publicly. I would love to watch you trying to avoid going back to the hotel alone whilst using phrases like “single fit birds” though

Clean sheet - unlikely if that’s the result

Sky Sports red button.

Have we ever won at St Mary’s?

Not in the Chesford Hotel

You're 50% correct

Wright wont be risked tonight no way as we wont have enough of the ball. Think Da Silva may well play in his spot. Palmer mya be rested as well and Latabadieure brought in with MVE moved up to RW.
Against Southampton that would make sense at their place as well.
