Backs against the wall all game but nick a 0-1 victory in the 83rd min. FACT!

Great_Expectations · Feb 24, 2021

Looking forward to it.

Swansea are clearly a strong team, but so are Brentford. While we didn’t get the results in the games prior to Brentford, there were positives to take, and clearly there’s loads from Brentford.

Hoping it has given the players a huge confidence boost, and also persuaded MR to the benefits of two up front and playing on the front foot and offensively - we are always a much better team when we aren’t playing over defensively.

It will be tough, but if our key players all show up, we play offensively and don’t show Swansea too much respect then there’s no reason we can’t get a result.

And if we lose, just like after the Norwich game, there’s no need for full meltdowns. There’s a lot of games left, our remaining fixtures look more positive, injuries are lessening and with a full strength team we’ve proven we can compete.

2-1, Biamou, Ostigard.

Biamou? Is that time of year again already?

Bicycle kick and forum splitting goal time?

The clash of ex-Villa players should be interesting, ours on a free, theirs cost £5.4m, more than our whole team.
O'Hare quick, lively needs a goal, Hourihane getting on, ponderous but can score..........who will come out on top??

Super Cal

Walker, Cal x2 I just have a feeling Cal will be even better today

It might be silly season, where he scores a goal with his head.

Magwitch · Feb 24, 2021

I’m confident we won’t lose just a gut feeling, hoping Brentford have a good day too.

AOM · Feb 24, 2021

Hopefully if Gyokeres gets game time, he feels he has something to prove against Swansea

The curse of the ex-player scoring? Yes please

SkyBlueMatt · Feb 24, 2021

I'm not getting carried away after Saturdays performance and win. We've been playing well recently (for the most part) and with Godden or Walker in the team, I think results would have been better. Swansea are a better team than us but this is the Championship and anything can happen.

I have no expectation tonight and if we get anything from the game. I'll be happy.

The important thing is keeping performances up and moral high until we get to a more favourable run of fixtures. Saturday would have done a world of good in that aspect.

I know CWR are commentating on away games remotely but surely its not that technically difficult to still have their commentary as an option. ifollow is about 5 minutes behind anyway!

AFCCOVENTRY · Feb 24, 2021

Hopefully Lee Trundle doesn’t play for them tonight.

Wouldn't be surprised to see James come back in for Kelly in this one. Think it would sensible to manage his minutes while he's still fresh back from injury.

Point would be a great result.

Is there anywhere you can stream CWR and pause it to sync it? Or is it still blocked online during games?

After a quick look on their forum. Midfield speed is their main weakness apparently as are a little bit slow.

I expect COH to be kicked about a lot then when he nicks the ball of them !

harvey098 · Feb 24, 2021

Same team as vs Brentford - I would take a draw

Midfield slowness that sounds familiar

Mcbean · Feb 24, 2021

Red button for me - I have to turn my phone off as the beeb goal
Notifications or my mates text me before we score on the red button

......or John Charles

Liquid Gold · Feb 24, 2021

MR rarely changes a winning side so I expect to see the same starting 11 as Saturday. Think Swansea will have enough to beat us at their own place so would take a draw if offered now. Especially as that basically takes us out of the really sticky patch of fixtures.

clint van damme · Feb 24, 2021

Most nervous I've been before a game all season.
I know it's a big ask with their home record but to be going in to March with at least a 6 point gap over the relegation places if we win would be incredible.

bawtryneal · Feb 24, 2021

O`Hare due a goal tonight.

I know - still a long shot, but avoiding a defeat would be great, but a win would be a massive boost for us, and a near hammer blow to some of those below. As long as Sheff Wed lose at Brentford, it will have been a decent set of midweek results, even should we lose.

Quick, refer to it as a 'free hit', see how many people you can upset

Just watched the highlights of the reverse fixture and frankly we should’ve won so have adjusted expectations accordingly. City win or Robins out.

Mcbean · Feb 24, 2021

Due a penalty - oh hold on...............................................

fernandopartridge · Feb 24, 2021

Swansea aren't great goalscorers, just a very strong defensive team that is clinical when it matters. which was exactly what happened when we played them.

BornSlippySkyBlue · Feb 24, 2021

Swansea are another powerful, big side who we are nowhere near on paper. But as we all know, it’s not played on paper is it. After the Brentford game hopefully the players now truly believe that we can give anyone a game on our day. So, with the bit between our teeth following a convincing win against a high-flying Brentford team — I’m going 1 (pen) -3 (O’Hare, Hamer, Østigård)

Can we conjure up a win without the magic shirt?

robbiethemole · Feb 24, 2021

If we wear ours at home will that help, do you think?

Travs · Feb 24, 2021

Sounds bad, but genuinely don't mind what happens as long as Sheff Weds don't win.

And would take a draw now in any circumstances.

Nothing to do with a magic shirt, it’s our magic player (Kelly) who is back in the side .

Evo1883 · Feb 24, 2021

Have thought about city, literally..... All day
