Coventry City vs Brighton & Hove Albion ***** Official Match Thread *****

[Bwian]

Have fun moaning everybody-I think I'll give this thread a miss.

Coventry Commentators really don't like Gus' antics in the technical area.

We seem to have a very bad reputation with the away folk and referees which clearly isn't helping.

But with Navarro being booked for TAKING a free kick, can you blame (G)us for getting frustrated...?!

I think it is a case of the reputation coming before him. I have a feeling that the commentators have one eye on the game and another on our manager just waiting for him to do something.

I'd rather a Poyet type to someone like Danny Wilson, who sits with his arms crossed all match.

Same bloody issues every week.

Harley seems useless

Nobody good enough to supply and partner CMS

Apart from his set pieces, Harley has sounded pretty useful in midfield with Sparrow.

Paynter also sounds like he's improving his game....

Hopefully we will come out fighting in the second half

It used to be here...but, if you find one-let me know.

Do you EVER have anything positive to add to The Albion? All you seem to do is slag of Gus and his tactics, the team and anything else connected to the club.

Yes I do, I say things as I see them my friend...and what I''ve seen of late is a manger out of his depth, players out of control, and a team lacking any spark or buzz. And if you've seen it differently I would get to specksavers a bit sharpish.

Hopefully not another hammering. I'm usually positive but after going to Reading and now seeing that awful goal we gifted Coventry I have a bad feeling

Something i smaking me think were not out of this. perhaps the fact that cov are completely shit may have something to do with that.

God I'v 'ad enuff if we lose this one

Coventry are not very good (i.e. extremely bad) at keeping single goal leads.

If we do not boob again it could be a gung-ho finish. Three at the back and go for it in the last 20 minutes

All aboard the Gus bus!!

Come on guys you can do it!!!

Fingers crossed, if we score one I think we'll go on and win. Coventry's confidence must be quite fragile.

it drives me potty on hear all the negatvie shit you read, people forget that we have 9 key players missing which for any team is a lot to deal with, he has options on the bench and I am sure he will use them to god effect in the 2nd half. People just nned to get behind the team and stop all the shit comments as if they can do a better job

 

[theonesmith]

i think a lot of you are being a bit harsh on Casper and the midfield 3, when noone lost it the middle three had pushed up leaving a big hole, defenders are told not to jump into tackles in that area of the pitch, and I dont actullay think it was a bad finish, we would have all been saying it was a cracking finish if a BHA player had scored it.

We're playing three centrebacks!! I don't want them to jump in, I want one of them to move forward and stop their player progressing up the pitch! You don't need to jump in to do that, just show him out wide! Seriously

He and Sparrow are not Championship Quality. We are sliding down the table because some of our players not good enough and Poyet is so tunnel visioned it's untrue.

so you would be happy to see Gus Get the sack them?

I agree about the defending, people cry about backing off, in that situation with so many men over then commiting themselves is, at best, hugely risky, if not suicidal.
