v Coventry City (h) - 21/01/25, k/o 19:45

[DeeCee]

Un-fucking-belieavable Jeff 🤔

[Bethnal]

Kinell, all four remaining subs with over half an hour to go. Two strikers up top. Can’t really fault the “go for it” energy, but we’re so injury prone, it seems a risk.

[davulsukur]

JE losing his shit here

Buckley off, Weimann on

Hedges off, ACD on

Batth (injured?) Off, Sanderson on

Dolan off, Leonard on

[Tom]

We’ve just made all our subs with 35 or so left? I did say we may have to gamble

ONE win in eight in the league after tonifht.

Absolutely pitiful.

Another huge opportunity missed - imagine if we picked up more points in the 8…? Which had very winnable games. Think this will be the last time we will be top 6 this season.

JRC is awful.

[moerpho]

Batth off. Game forfeit. Doh.

Did I just witness the referee make us retake a corner because Hedges was wrestled to the ground?

And then award them a FK because Gueye was getting manhandled. 

Absurd decisions. Clown. 

[Proudtobeblue&white]

It's embarrassing. JE will be off at at the first sign of no money, wouldn't blame him.

It happens every year - the December / January period decides the season. 

Those with big squads or who get lucky with injuries pull away. We've obviously had a rash of injuries ('cos players have been asked to play too much) and a tiny squad. 

Exactly, and I'm so fucking tired of it happening every single season.

[Forever Blue]

The huge positive tonight is Gueye. He’s been excellent.

[neophox]

the ref is shit.....poor standard...Torp made 5 tackles and still not booked...

He’s not got much choice but I’d have kept Dolan on.

[superniko]

So is that now Batth, Brittain, Travis, Trondstad, Ohashi, Carter, Wharton, Pickering all out injured. 
All squad players and at least half our best starting 11

[neophox]

Gueye the only one doing anything tonight

Got a real fire in his belly and his touch/decisions have been noticeably better this evening

You've been hearing the optimism from him that reinforcements are coming in draining away with every interview.

Feel sorry for him.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

The death spiral has begun in earnest.

[DeeCee]

Attackers are coming!

[Lancaster Rover]

Our world beating number 8 running the show against a poor side again……… thought not

He's been anonymous to be fair. Not worth the supposed £1.75m price tag. 

Were you still finishing your pint when he scored their second goal, yeah?

[TommyRovers]

The worst thing is Coventry have been piss poor. Barely in this game.

[moerpho]

That volley from Weimann pretty much sums it up

[B16Rover]

2nd shocking volley in two weeks, can we leave Gueye out of heads and Vs for a few weeks to practice please

That was shit refereeing. There was far more cause to give us a penalty on that first corner when two of our players were being wrestled excessively, than there was to give them a free kick for the retake. Refs never seem to give penalties for attackers being dragged around at a corner though. In normal play that's a penalty.

Didn't book that ex-Swansea lad for trying to take Gueye's shirt off him on the break and the Danish thug for his 12th foul. Awful ref.
