vs Coventry

[Billy Goatham]

Some filthy tackles from them. Not saying we'd win, but still annoying we have to put up with that. A pretty poor 2nd half. Looked alright going forward in first half, even if it is only Coventry reserves. But caught out a few times in defence. Too many.

Going to be a long season. Missing Max. Need an experienced centre half

Shocking late tackle on Graham too - could have been a red as nowhere near the ball just took the player out, the bloke was booked

How many more times is graham going to beat his man and cross it in to the near post with no players thinking to actually go to the near post in anticipation?

Happemed a few times in the previous games too. Hes done well to beat his man a number of times but the cross comes to nothing.

 

[Lark]

1-1

Well done Gills to take it to Pens.Fitness is worrying but some grit and determination from the lads.

1-1

Yep penalty. Rightly as far as i can see, from a foul on a fairly innocuous cross into the box by us. Dont really think it was going to cause any problems, so a silly mistake from them really. But well put away by graham.

It goes to pens.

I hate penalty shootouts.

C'mon BMS, do your job!

Come on Jack.

SE will have to name a new captain for Saturday

Apparently Jackson is standing in as captain in this game.

 

[chris who]

Yes.

 

[chris who]

Well done lads.

 

[Rob_b100]

Would you Adam an’ eve it?!

 

[shotshy]

Phew

Won 5-4 on penalties. Some nice penalties actually. Defo stole that one IMO but they all count. In the next round, a bit of extra cash. Unfortunately no pay day from a big game (high attendance) though.

Going to be a big loss with okeefe out for probably a long time.

 

[Gilles Lingam]

the boys done good !!

 

[Vambogills]

Get in! Bakayoko should have been off long before the end. Just deserts. Work to do but a good result on a tough night.

 

[nitram77]

Coyle was cool on that last penalty for a young lad.

Not sure there is any money, is there? Tried looking up prize fund just now, all I can find is that there's 100k for the winner and 50k for the winner, not sure there's any money for winning in the early rounds like in the FA Cup.

Chance of being televised against Wolves, maybe?

Does sound like the ref bottled it especially if it puts O'Keefe out for a long time it seems very wrong that the Coventry lad gets off with a booking.
