Some shocking defending!

 

[Briles]

Draw. Penalties, ohare to score the winning pen

 

[David O'Day]

As Torp is fit

Collins

Thomas
Lati
Kitching

MvE
Bidwell

Eccles or Sheaf if he is fit enough to start
Torp

O'Hare just on ability laone, palmer has been better than him recently

Wright
Simms

Could also make a good argument for Sheaf and Eccles in midfield

Yep, the kits are so good. Lacking all the sponsor rubbish and fancy decoration you get these days!

Agreed, I don't remember Bobby Parker being so awesomely slow

Yes but none of the plastic fans know who the players are

Both teams kits look far better than the modern ones.
Certainly more colourful

Was at that game,Much better then than now

 

[Tommo1993]

Need to be better than our best, and need a bit of an off day from them. Not writing us off, but 9/10 times they win this - hopefully it’s that 1 tomorrow.

Should we lose, just hope it’s not an absolute pasting.

Prediction: 3-1 Wolves. Sheaf with our goal.

They were made from wool...

Wolves, @oldgoldpack and Fan Volunteers would like to encourage all supporters to take their seat early on Saturday to be part of an old gold and black stadium display for our @EmiratesFACup Quarter Final against @Coventry_City


This is giving me Wasps flashbacks

Seem to remember Middlesbrough doing the same in the playoffs. That went well for them

..."and for viewers watching in black and white, coventry players have a small black elephant on their shirts"

Back in the 2nd division days, we used to win at the Wolves. Even when they went up from Div 2, think it was 0-0.

 

[blunted]

I wouldn't be surprised if MR didn't play the type of team he picked at Leeds where we played our more defensive players with the attackers coming on in the last 20 mins.

I'd be surprised, Leeds are a free scoring team and there is arguably less to lose tomorrow against Wolves who haven't been free flowing of late

Was also at the game. Dougan got knocked out before kick off when someone fired a training ball across, but recovered to play. The after match shenanigans were…. dangerous.

 

[Chris1987]

Can't help but that's no that the stage is set for COH.

 

[MusicDating]

Fan Zone open to Cov fans tomorrow apparently (far corner from our corner it seems)

How many City were there roughly, no segregation as well possibly?

I read somewhere a while ago that about 17000 Cov fans went over that day. No segregation so they were all scattered around

Total official attendance that day 50,106

 

[Domo]

[Domo]

torp from distance, obviously

I was at that game and in the South Bank. I was always under the impression there was segregation but looking at the footage there's plenty of Wolves fans in there

Notts County too. Remember the black and white t shirts?

There was until about three quarters of the way down then it was a mixed zone.

Managed to get in the Wolves end. Massive ask for us to get anything but if we can keep it tight and not conceding early will be the key.
Have a feeling it will be 5 at the back with Eccles again at right Wing back so we hopefully don’t get over run too easily.
1-0 to us

Might as well have kept Burroughs here if that's the case again!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Forgot about Westwood’s last gasp penalty save against them in the league. Entertaining game if I recall

Was there also , it was absolutely packed

That south bank seemed absolutely massive that day.

He wasn’t,Richards was really that quick.
