Nice bit of play there….unlucky not to score.
Sereki has looked good….he’s so direct…..just runs at defenders causing panick.

Wilders post match interview will be interesting.
It’s a game we deserved a point in….two very average teams but we gave away 2 school boy level defending goals.
My issue is the lack of confidence and lack of leadership…..again could have so easily scored in injury time.

The task for Wilder isn’t so much the lack of ability, it’s there…..the issue is the poor mentality and stupid mistakes in defence.
You could say we’ve been unlucky in recent matches but it’s becoming a common theme…so we’re obviously not unlucky.

NOT ALLOWED

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Andre Brooks has the ball control of Cecil Parkinson.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Some decent corners but we have no one attacking the ball.

Wilder's ego has lost us points not playing Seriki until now.

 

[gooseh]

Bar the goals, it's been alright for most of this half. Something to build on... possibly

 

[nopigfansintown]

This club is rotting.

In the boardroom, with a clueless uncommunicative board apart from Steve Bettis doing a fair impression of Lord Haw Haw.

Amongst the players. I’ve seen far worse players give far more. Do you know what I’ve never seen before? Cowardice. It isn’t a lack of talent. It’s a lack of giving a shit, a complete and utter lack of accountability.

I’ve had my say about CW, but even his motivation skills can’t get a tune out of this lot.

Rotting

I think professionalism due to what you said and other issues is a huge thing. Lack of professionalism bakes in issues.If a snooker player doesn't practice they're fucked . If a tennis player doesn't have a ridiculously physical Nov/Dec pre season they're fucked for the next season. Most of the time I think these players give adequate service...for about 50 minutes a game. There's no button they can push to be able to do it for 90. Too late. We're reaping what the lack of professionalism throughout the club has sown...

 

[Jon B]

Clowns.

 

[BangorBlade]

Lampards a wanker

 

[Chris the Blade]

Andre Brooks has the ball control of Cecil Parkinson.

He was a lad and a half

 

[Innuendoandouttheother]

Ffs

 

[gooseh]

Apart from that bit. Hospital pass from Mee to Davies

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Strange old game this.

Did well to not collapse after the start of the half were we looked on the ropes Finished it stronger hit on the break last second to make it look worse

Out of context with the rest of season it's not bad unfortunately the league table is the only context that counts

 

[Seun]

What a sweaty goal. What a way to rub it in. Wilder needs to rage quit

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Offside

 

[harrry1990s]

it’s just sad at this point.

 

[Hollinsend]

We're pushing up, line is high, keeper stays in his 6 yard box. Just imbecilic

 

[Darren William]

May well had brought warnock back couldn't have been any worse!.

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Geniunely hate 95% of this team, bunch of cunts

 

[Rufus Smalls]

There's 30 seconds left, we have the ball in midfield and then manage to lose it trying to pass through one of their players.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Useless wankers giftin again.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Keeper cost us two goals

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Coventry have to go up with luck like that.

 

[Satan's Toilet Blade]

Bizarre take. So despite losing 3-1 we played quite well and it wasn't that bad?

[Sheffsteel]

Again…..pathetic defending…3-1 just as we were threatening to draw 2-2.

As I said Wilder will probably say we’ve been unlucky…..can understand why….overall been quite an even match.
But you make your own luck…..good teams always seem to be lucky….poor teams always seem to be unlucky.

Could easily have drawn tonight…..bet Coventry can’t believe how below par they were yet still won 3-1….it was an easy evening for them.

 

[toledo]

I'm sat here questioning myself: how the hell do we get out of this absolute mess.

I personally thought Cov were only average yet with put 3 past us as most teams are doing.

This is now a very serious situation and there appears to be no answers...

 

[Dave9777]

Really deserved a draw after switching to ultra attacking in the last 15 mins. Wrong mistakes at the wrong time all the way though. Wtf had happened to peck for example? Need to start seriki, Brooke’s, ings next time surely rather than plebs like cannon. Too little too late as usual

Can forgive the last goal with seconds left when trying to push for the equaliser, 3-1 definitely a harsh score line.

 

[Addison]

Theres no point in trying to win games when you've got such a shocking reserve goalkeeper. Faxon has to come in surely.

 

[Wetwang blade]

Yer can't make it up, thrown away again. Like a knife in the gut watching this shower.
