4-1 swindon , we cant hope for much more than a good hiding with the players we have .
SISU have let TM and the entire sky blue faithful down with the lack of investment and ambition .
Not looking forward to this season one bit..
Please prove me wrong !!! PUSB..

2 all draw. Can't see the defence keeping a clean sheet but hope going forward we have the skill to open them up. Reid to score early and tudgay to rescue the point.

less than 48 hours to go and this wasn't even on the main page of the forum, so BUMP

matesx · Aug 4, 2016

Well I'm going and I can't bloody wait. Behind the goal back row. 2000 SBA cheering on the lads!

Bring it on!

Merlin pub before and after for a few scoops with good pals.

Christ I've missed the footy.

Nick · Aug 4, 2016

I hope they can go out there without too much pressure and play their game.

It will be exciting to see Jones and Reid both playing on either side!

I have missed being excited Friday night, Saturday morning and then fuming at 6pm

That defence frightens the life out of me.

I don't think much of strike force either.

More than happy to be proved wrong though.

I always thought LEahy was more left sided?

I agree, it's very shaky and would have to hope that Swindon are awful.

jesus christ...here's to hoping that harries and leahy have had an absolute blinder of a pre season and come up trumps

johnwillomagic · Aug 5, 2016

No Tudguy in start xi....seriously???

Nick · Aug 5, 2016

I think with Reid and Jones, if Tudgay could hold it up and flick it on it is worth a shout.

It is more the defence that worries me!

ccfcway · Aug 5, 2016

TM this morning saying Reid will make the bench tomorrow as not had a pre season.

Looks like Sordell will be the lone new player in the first X1

You could stick Earlsdon_Skyblue into that defence and no one would notice.

Jesus.

What about Earlsdon_Skyblue1?

I'd love to get a game in a pre season friendly, I'd absolutely go through as many of their players as I can (get up and walk off after, its the only way) and celebrate as if I had won the league if we scored.

I would then probably get absolutely hammered by some 16 year old who runs rings around me until I kick him (if I can catch him).

I remember that story Harry Redknapp said where a fan was giving it loads in a friendly so he gave him some boots and put him on - https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2013/sep/05/harry-redknapp-played-fan-west-ham

Bloke scored a screamer but it was ruled offside

I remember hearing that story! It's brilliant!

I do actually play as a centre back, but jacked in Saturday football last year to watch CCFC. I have to say, this year I'm really put off, so I'm still toying with the idea to going back to playing.

If things continue like this, I might get my dream come true. Play Saturday football, and be at the Ricoh for 3pm!

AFCCOVENTRY · Aug 5, 2016

Ricketts is fit for tomorrow and Kwame Thomas potentially on the bench.

AFCCOVENTRY · Aug 5, 2016

Swindon have just signed Michael Doughty from QPR. Would have done a decent job for us

Nantwich Skyblues · Aug 5, 2016

signed Lloyd Jones too ,decent center back at this level... mm saturday getting even tougher

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Aug 5, 2016

Swindon signed 3 players today, Luke Norris just signed for them. £150,000 from Gillingham

BackRoomRummermill · Aug 5, 2016

We will win 2 1 , we always do win our first game

Nick · Aug 5, 2016

Don't forget the prediction league!

We haven't won our first game since 2010, excluding Wigan last season....

He is crap. Was linked with us and has poor stats tbh.

ccfcway · Aug 5, 2016

I don't get TM quote in the CT today. When asked about players, he said...

"We have to find some of our own, and we have done that with Sordell, Reid and McCann"

McCann isn't ours, he is on loan

stupot07 · Aug 5, 2016

Doesn't sound like Reid will start tomorrow, I think Mowbray will go with this (pending injuries)

3-2 us, come on then! Not long now

AFCCOVENTRY · Aug 6, 2016

I would have a front 3 of Jones Tudgay Sordell
