Harry sounds like we have similar views would be good to have a pint if you ever come back to TewkesburyI'd love that too, but I've come to realise that it's enjoying the journey with watching us. I'd take last season (or this) any day over watching a season of dross/hanging on in The PL/championship etc. It's all about the memories, friensl etc, although of course I want the team to do as well as possible. That's why I'm chuffed that the supporters clubs have taken off and started to reunite a lot of the fanbase. Really positive stuff lately.
Really? 2 x 5-0 works perfectlySome strange maths on here!
Give it a rest ffs. Let mr sort whats best out. Burge cost us a few games but also pulled off a few worldy saves to earn us points as well. There are a few others who cost us with blatant missed goals.Burge wouldn’t be near the first team any longer give Addai a run out
You can't distinguish between a loyal servant of several seasons and a temporary loanee?playing devil advocate here. it would be an insult to rest burge as he has played for us all seaosn but will be off in the summer, yet we should rest sterling, thomas et al who have played for us all season and will be off in the summer ?
Less Rugby played on the pitch, so hopefully a better playing surface next season.Wasps getting stuffed, no European rugby for them then. Makes me feel slightly better. To make it more Coventry linked we need rugby scores in last two games lol
Less Rugby.
I’ll say it now the reason why we didn’t get into the play offs is Burge.
Just my opinion that I think Burge has been a mess since December and had we had competition in that area he wouldn’t have had a look in again.i would very much like a new keeper next seaon but he isnt the "reason". Many factors of which his mistakes will be one

Why is it important to pin the blame on one person? It’s just crazy.Piss off. I’ve a right to my opinion but I don’t tell you your opinions idiotic?

It's easier than looking at a more nuanced explanation and that suits some people.

No fan of Burge and he's made some clangers and cost us points. But equally, he's made some outstanding stops that have saved us points too. Swings and roundabouts.I think our outfield players have squandered far more opportunities to score goals and win games than Burge has made mistakes and cost us points. I’d put money on it in fact.
Luke Thomas or Jordy Hiwula could miss a golden chance (as they have been doing all season) and a minute later Burge could make a mistake and concede a goal, who do our fans blame? Burge.
Don’t look to to deep mate. Burge has cost us many a point this season and the others he has played in. Whilst I get we have missed chances this seasons what I can’t except is the consistent mistakes Burge has made. I get it a keeper can make a mistake but this guy never learns from his mistakes.
Exactly ... imagine Thomas is a goalkeeper , and every chance to score that he missed , was a goalmouth fumble or cross dropped... or Chaplin & Hiwula were a keeper and every shot that went wide or over the bar or one in one they missed was them being a keeper and not coming off their line for a cross or kicking a goal kick out etc . You get the picture .I said the same thing on another thread but its not the only reason we just missed out.
We've dominated several games where we should have won but either lost or drew and we have missed sitters late on in games more than once.
Put one of them away and we're going into tomorrow with a realistic chance of making the play offs.
Edison? Outstanding light bulb moment.Exactly ... imagine Thomas is a goalkeeper , and every chance to score that he missed , was a goalmouth fumble or cross dropped... or Chaplin & Hiwula were a keeper and every shot that went wide or over the bar or one in one they missed was them being a keeper and not coming off their line for a cross or kicking a goal kick out etc .

Truth is , with most footy fans if it happens past the half way line it gets mopped up and forgotten about , and put down to being a young developing team , we can only afford players still learning their craft etc... it happens in our goalmouth and it’s uproar and how dare he make a mistake , it’s all his fault because he’s not Edison or Schmical. While actual football people often praise burge
Totally missed the point...Edison? Outstanding light bulb moment.
Thomas is not a goalkeeper. Chaplin and Hiwula are not goalkeepers. It's a bizzare and desperate way of lifting blame off a shite keeper.
No I got your point but its not possible to makeTotally missed the point...
Burge is some way short from the traditional high calibre of goalkeepers Coventry had generally before 2001.
Its a team game and never one persons fault over a whole season. This is unfair.
