Garland-sweden Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 They are control in the game, should have scored 2-3 goals. But, football is football. Nice deliver and header. Yes Yes Yes COYR 1 Quote Link to comment

(Dickie header and Weimann chance) For all Coventry's possession, I can't recall them having a shot from inside our box? You have to admit we were crap until the change of formation and sub.

BCFC Rich Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 Good take from the Coventry forum, before our change of formation - Talking about us: "They are going to have find an extra man deeper in midfield from somewhere so that their wingbacks can get higher. Their 3 in midfield is Matty James sitting a bit deeper than the other 2 and we've got their wingbacks penned back because he can't manage the horizantal line through defensive midfield on his own. If he can't restructure those 3 in the middle he's going to have to sacrifice a striker or a centre back. Would be nice to get a goal before he does" 2 Quote Link to comment

Or had they just had a few decent attempts from outside the box? They’ve had several good chances in my book. Some of those from outside the box weren’t just hopeful punts, they were very good. It helps having the ref on our side too!! At this rate I’m expecting us to get at least one penalty! Very happy with the 1-0 though, even if I still can’t quite work out how we managed it.

The turtle Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 Well you've just learnt what kind of person you are.... Are you a results based person? Or Are you performance based? Personally the score is funny. And a bit of a joke 1 Quote Link to comment
Dan Robin Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 Second best for most of the first half, then we grew in the last minutes (partly thanks tò the change of shape) and the lead was not so strange. A long way to go though Quote Link to comment

Not always pretty but I’d always take the 3 points. Maybe we are just due some luck, we don’t get much of it especially from the referees Quote Link to comment
pongo88 Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 City 2 shots on target, Coventry only 1. So the half time score is obviously well deserved (haha). The best thing so far is I heard some Coventry fans went to Horfield by mistake Quote Link to comment

mozo Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 That was particularly horrific with a back 5. The experiment failed badly. We still looked a tad ragged after changing that but at least got some possession, and Knight has made a difference. BUT... it's only halftime and Cov look good enough to give us all sorts of problems 2nd half. Quote Link to comment
