I thought the best team lost. Cov opened us up a number of times with Clarke missing a couple. How did he miss that header? Their passing was pretty crisp and they had good delivery, which we did not.
For the first 75, I thought we were pretty crap. A lot of players off their game and we were second to everything. The midfield was absolute bollox and the defence not much better. Byrne and J Mac were both shite. Ranger was left on his own with fuck all support.
Then they hit the post, the ball comes back into Fods arms and the rest is history. The last 15 minutes were superb. Two quality goals. Kasims was like an exocet and Storey's shows that his work down the gym is worthwhile as he looks a unit now.
Two other really positives from the day. The ref was superb - best down here this season. Then fair play to Coventry who at least played like men. None of the fucking around that Orient and Brentford give you. When they got fouled, they got back up.
I would have given Ranger MOM. The ball stuck to him like superglue.
Now the negatives. We still want to walk the ball in the fucking net. Our decision making in the box is shite - take a bow Mr Pritchard. also, our dead ball delivery is also shite - take another bow Mr Pritchard. To be honest, His workrate was good but he was shite today, as was Ajose.

Got to agree with you about pritchard's delivery Chalkies, it's generally shocking.

Pritchard's joint second for assists in the division and has scored some excellent free-kicks.

Shortest Match day thread ever. Either everyone went to the game or did some shopping?

Match day thread length is often inversely proportional to how well we played...and even the size of the crowd, which was OK as well.

For what it's worth, I thought Clarke just about crossed the line with his goal celebration as well.  Funny thing was he directed his performance at the Arkells Stand, which was full of kids and pensioners (and me).  Maybe he should have tried his luck with the Town End (who, incidentally, seemed to be in fine voice throughout today from where we were sitting).

Really enjoyed that second half. Coventry didn't sit on their lead, which helped is a lot. Both sides attacking and looking dangerous going forward, and generally very enjoyable. Probably wouldn't be saying the same had we lost, but fuck it. Storey took his goal well.

Good luck tryin to analyse the positions second half. At one point hall kept on overlapping bartram, Byrne was playing centre back and ajose ended the game at right back. All very odd, but I guess it worked.

Sounded very cool from Storey. Coming of age?

Storey looked a man and not a boy today. I think you may be right. Oh and Kasim was back to his player of the year best. We played well, but with a frustrating end product, Cov also played some lovely stuff.


Finally, did you know that in the last three meetings there have been six different managers.

Didn't say it bothered me, but if you run half the length of the pitch and do what he did then that is inciting the crowd, sorry if I have an opinion

Well I thought it was an excellent game with both teams trying to play football.
Very even and end to end.
Predicted on radio this Morning 2-1 but would have settled with a draw.

Took both of my lads today by train and a great day out.
Fair play to the Cov fans on train going and coming back, decent.

Ranger MOM for me. At home we play better when he plays. Great touches today.
As for Story's goal a class finish ......... Get in !!!!
