Coventry City v Swindon Town Official Matchday Thread

[joteddyred]

A bizarre day even by STFC standards...my body clock is telling me it's Saturday, which just adds to the strangeness.

Indeed it has.  I'm even more confused because my son has a match tomorrow morning instead of Sunday!

So, apart from Carlisle on Monday, anyone know who Posh have got for their last 2 games?

[tans]

Shrewsbury and vale

calling for Storey to replace him was a stupid idea. Storey didn't change the game when he came on. He didn't even touch the fucking ball.

I'm not sure everyone was calling for storey to replace him. Neither play the loan striker well. Having both on the pitch is the best attacking option, but at the expense of possession in midfield.

My opinion is Smith is slow with a dubious touch, but he can score goals and works incredibly hard. About right for division 3

Shrewsbury and vale

Fuck

Vale are dangerous. Shrewsbury are woeful and look to be headed down without a fight.

The majority around me were moaning at Cooper for not taking Smith off and bringing Storey on.

Anyway, I personally think it's more helpful to chant for Smith when he's out on the pitch than for Storey when he's not. It's not Smith's fault he has square feet

Got to say well done to the team though for keeping a bit of interest going for so long.

Be nice if we could take it to the last game and have a full house abusing the fat boy

This is exactly what happened from sections of the Arkells in particular last Saturday.

Easter Saturday? Blimey they're keen! Who's he play for, out of interest?

He plays for Swindon Rangers.  The game is away to Marlborough.  Apparently they play all their games on Saturday, because the rugby is played on Sunday.  We've got no subs tomorrow, because a few of the team are away and my son has gone to bed feeling unwell.  I hope he's ok in the morning, as it will be too late to cancel due to not enough players.

[THE FLASH]

Well that was good...hopefully see the goals later...

Just got back, coventry have given up and don't blame them as Northamptonshire ground makes the county ground look like the old Trafford . Smith was shit but I think he cannot play the lone striker,storeys introduction totally changed our shape and attacking intent. luongo was immense today his double tackle led to our goal,Also Troy is now the best central defender in world football.

Great result today. Shame so many of our fans were silent and actually getting annoyed when people joined in chants, fuck right off.

Not seen it mentioned but Rovers have a huge game away at Pompey tomoz! Didnt realise how badly they were doing
