Match Day Thread Coventry City vs QPR

Or he's been told that Walsh is no.1

I’d be very surprised if Walsh is in goal on Saturday. Although he wasn’t the only problem at Coventry it was clear the defenders don’t trust him, and his distribution was worse than anything Nardi has done.

Walsh has been one of the problems in each match so far, imo. I feel that already this season, there has been about 5 or so shots that he didn't save but Nardi would have. And although Nardi's distribution isn't brilliant, it's far more consistent than Walsh, who seems to make howler after howler.

I wonder what the Salaman chap is like. I've only seem him once or twice.

I'm sure I'm in a minority of one here, but I really do think everyone should stay calm and be patient.

The coach has a decent football record and deserves more than three championship games to be judged on. Especially when the likes of Kone haven't yet been able to start.

We've made some decent signings this summer IMO - Kone and Poku in particular, but I'm pleased to see Hayden and Saito back, and hopeful Burrell will add something coming off the bench.

Also made some sensible long-term decisions like a L1 loan for Lloyd and the likes of Adamson in.

The only major concern for me is in the GK department and the solution for that is sitting on the bench.

I think we'll look a heck of a lot better after the international break and I'm willing to give the gaffer until then at least.

Another good summary. He specifically lays into our injury woes and blames the club for it:

A Coventry fan put this in a comment under the above video on YouTube:

About eight years ago, there was a period where a lot of players were getting ACL injuries. One player even had three. It turned out the contractor had used the wrong type of sand under the training ground pitches. The sand held the pitches together better but was less forgiving, which increased the risk of knee and ankle injuries during training.

Looking at our injuries, we probably used rubble because it was cheaper
