The boy wright up for them is quality and a real handful I reckon gooch will come in as he will help out defensively. Means hume can defend narrower to help ballard n onien with the 2 strikers n gooch will pick up their lwb
As a Coventry outsider and someone who has no idea who many footballers are nowadays, all I know is they lost 3 of their best players and I don't know, apart from Simms, who they replaced them with.
Yeah I think Gooch would get the nod ahead of Ba to fill in for Roberts. I expect he'd do a good job too. I'm not sure Ba is ready to be starting, he's clearly got ability but I don't see him as being reliable just yet.
Top thread again RTB , I like the idea of starting Gooch in place of Roberts and I would be happy with a point against this lot who are an awful team to play against at any time. I am sure we will have our chances, and we will need to take them. OaU
I think this is going to be a tough game, I'll go 1-1 with Coventry leading at ht. Clarke with our goal.
I'd hate to be Mowbray having to decide who plays as we have plenty of options ... ... whoever/however he plays will annoy some supporters. At least the away support is always 100% together in the ground.
He has already stated "Dont expect to see them on the pitch" so why waste a space on the bench? It makes no sense, unless he is just talking ****e again
Doesn't say it definitely won't happen. If the score is 4-0 I could see him getting fifteen minutes, which would be very useful to judge his fitness and attitude.
Great thread @RTB It will be a tough one today and head says a draw although heart is going for a 2-1 win KTF Hawaaaaaaaaaaaay
Whenever I really shouldn't be going I'm always pleased when it's no longer physically possible. I can't relax until then and, loads of times, have thought 'fukit' then left work or home at the last possible minute. Now I can relax I'm going for 2-0 with two late goals in a cagey match. I think Mowbray will do a rope-a-dope, let Coventry tire and send Hemir, Pritchard and Ba on with 20 minutes to go. Have a great day if you're going and Ha'way the Lads!!!
A win and with 6 points on the board it wouldn’t be a bad start to the season but I just don’t fancy us, if we are to get something out of this game we need to put Bath in with Ballard & Luke and play with wing backs. He might have to without Robert’s, it’s a tough call with the team today, that’s what TM gets paid for though.
Is Rigg still out? Would have liked to see him get a chance in Roberts place. Otherwise I would be going with Ba, or play Hemir and push Jobe back to be fluid with Dack.
A win today would be brilliant. I genuinely think Coventry will be up in top 3 by the end. Would take a draw for sure.
Could be, I wouldn't be opposed to that I just think Gooch slots in nicely there without having to switch anything. Ba to come on later.
Thankyou again RTB I see the vote is almost level between H D & A . I put D , but I can’t really decide against “ it’ll be one if those three” So I transferred my thought energy and decided Abbot Ale tonight if we win , Staropramen if lose and red wine if it’s a draw.
