We should be beating them by three! At least
I guess Thorn should be sacked because it was only 4 and we conceded one. I just couldn't resist, especially after Tuesday nights craziness.
It was craziness. We were woefully inept and shockingly dreadful.
Boo! Another AT thread! Lock it mod!
Don't like it, Don't read it.
It's a pre-season friendly, we didn't gain any points today and we didn't lose any on Tuesday. If we get upset that we lose a meaning friendly then maybe we should get rid of them and have our first match be the Dagenham cup game. We beat Hinckley 8-0 people were saying we will walk the league, lose to Wrexham then we need to sack the manager before we get relegated. People need to chill out and forget out pre-season results, its the league that matters.

Another thread created by a teenage dullard.
Minority?
A lot of people were thinking Thorn wasnt good enough last season, not many are judging friendlies!
It seems that when we win thorn is great but when we lose sisu are bad!
We will soon see when we play yeovil
But some of the Coventry fans on here and on phone-ins seem to think that no matter what obstacles are in his way it is all his fault
Spot on here. If today's result shows anything it's that pre-season results mean shit. The most important thing is what is learnt from them, not the result itself.
Nobody thinks it is ALL his fault, obviously sisu and the players were to blame also!
A lot of people like him so look past negatives, the same as mcsheffrey!

I'm 25 mate and by the way, for those interested, I only posted this to see if all of you Thorn haters who love to post your "Sack Thorn Now" threads every time we lose were still around. You lot make me laugh especially as I never hear any one at the Ricoh chanting for Thorn to be sacked. Stay in the minority and be sad.

There's no doubt the forum is a quieter place after a win.
A number of reasons people still have concerns. Friendly or no friendly you still want a half decent performance from your team.
No-one is that bothered that we lost those previous two friendly games. Losing friendlies isn't a problem, it is the manner of losing the friendlies. We were apparently bloody dreadful in both games.
Then there is still stuff such as playing McDonald as a right winger and Billy Daniels as a holding midfield player. Thorn also got very angry about those last two defeats so that doesn't exactly fill you with optimism either.
It's a new season and fresh start for him, but niggling doubts will always remain until he starts to turn things round and us into a winning side.
It is only pre-season mind. We need the season to start, simple as. Everything at the moment can only be based on pre-season and what happened last season mind. That's all we've got.

Maybe because beating Accrington as we should provokes less reaction than getting dicked by Wrexham. Admittedly i m looking at it from a sensible point of view rather than a "everybody bar me wants us to lose" approach
And i would agree totally if it was just a pre-season phenomenon, but it happens regardless of the opposition and time of year.
