How was he offside when he didn't actually pass the ball?

VAR that reads your intentions.

Sheaf moves around that midfield like a top top player, which is exactly what he's becoming.

Mustn't get caught there though

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Sheaf. Half asleep again in the danger area.

Minority Report VAR?

Isn't that Minority Report?

Excellent 45 from City really , good battle between diallo and sheaf

 

[Nick]

Another booking.

Today's officials...

 

[Paul Anthony]

Very good half, but we're going to need another goal. You've got to think they'll be coming out having had a rocket up them second half.

 

[Danceswithhorses]

...another stupid yellow card for Hamer !
Does he really think he's worth a move to a bigger club ?

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Hamer picked up a really unnecessary yellow there.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Very good half. Can expect them to step up after the break. Need another.

Hope MR remembers he can make 5 subs today. Or just subs in general really.

 

[covcity4life]

So far so good. Playing rly well. But prob end up punished for not getting a 2nd tho.

 

[shmmeee]

Good half that. With five subs and their bench I can see the second being a lot harder. Really should be 2-0 but we look dangerous when we get forwards. Sheaf and Eccles have been outstanding. Slightly worried with us having two on yellow already.

Sheaf has great vision, passing range, and can tackle, but he is really pedestrian on the ball in our own half. It makes me so nervous.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Eccles and Sheaf mustard. Doesn't look like a team that has given up on the season, regardless of what happens second half. Don't want extra time !!!!!!

Wonder if he might stick Bidwell or Maatsen over to the right and bring on a midfielder, Redmond likes cutting inside anyway so having a left footer there might not be that bad.

Weve got Kane on the bench, probably not fully fit but could do half an hour or so.

Do you not reckon Kane will be fit enough to come on?

 

[shmmeee]

Got to be honest, after a nervy first game there Eccles has really grown into that RWB position.

 

[steve101]

I was going to say how disciplined Hamer was positionally and then he got himself stupidly booked. Maatsen is doing well, causing them some problems. Sheaf has been caught on the ball a few times but showed his quality with the assist.
Eccles great again but now needs to stay on his feet. Redmond will do his best to get a second yellow out of him. Back 3 looking solid at this point. Long may it continue.
Robins has got it right so far. Looking very organised.

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

As it stands, this is the FA cup result of the day.

 

[clint van damme]

got to be honest, didn't realise he was on the bench!!

 

[Evo1883]

You know shit got real when prem fans say we are this good

 

[clint van damme]

I'd have money now that the player of ours that generates the most interest in the summer will be Vik.
He's an absolute handful and he can play football as well.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Playing really well. Some of our one touch passing in the final third has been unbelievable. O’Hare having one of his best game of the season.

Hopefully we don’t rue the missed chances, because that second Maatsen one and the Eccles one looked really dangerous from where we are.

 

[Finham]

MR: "And remember, yellow cards here don't count for the league, so get stuck in,"
GH: " "

Few players doing their value no harm today.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Sounds likes a CCFC sex toy

@rob9782 should be able to sort you out

 

[Evo1883]

Southampton fans on twitter not happy there are so many coventry fans in the home end too by all accounts

I make you right, bit of a rare breed. Big and strong to lead the line but also good at his feet and can finish. Looking more and more like our best signing in a decade.

O'Hare just fannied a great chance for us.

The most 'complete' player we have, bar none

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

They've got back into it since Moore nearly gave us all a heart attack.
