When he was constantly on the telly regarding the break away league, I did mention that Gary Neville was the founding father of such nonsense, agreeing to participate in a new event on the other side of the world for money in 2001.

Keeping possession but no real threat is not an excellent performance. Please revert to Plange and Jozwiak and CKR and Morrison as 60th min subs for next week Brizzle away was more like Shizzle away.

That’s true. And seemingly money is way more important that prestige. Around the mid 90s, winning the Fa cup was still seen pretty much as par with the Prem but not these days. Personally, I would take a cup win over promotion every single time. To see DCFC win a cup would be unreal. Realistically that will never happen.

That was 20 years ago Alf...... I think it lost its way in the period where there was no European place for the winners. At that point, the so called "big clubs" started fielding second strings, the TV deals were a relative pittance and there wasn't a Wembley day out for 7 or 8 years. It's very unlikely to recover its former glory imo..... Sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimtastic56 Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Just got back from the game and heard Rooney was happy with the performance. Don’t know who he is trying to kid. He is right to say we have to be more clinical. If you only create a couple of chances per game you can’t afford miss many. It looks like CKR no longer has the legs to play 70 mins . However we have been on a great run and I’m sure we will get back on track shortly. i-Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we will get one in January. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramifications Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 What was today's attendance? Didn't look too many there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Just got back, poor performance really, kept the ball ok but not able to do anything meaningful with it, lots of backwards and sideways. No threat up top. Thommo played well, Festy was a threat first half, but Morrison and Kaz showed why they are best off the bench. Not much between the teams, I thought Cov actually played better with the ball than we did. The players looked really tired at times, begging the question why a full strength team was put out and why, when five subs were allowed, none were made until the 75th minute. Away end was busy but there was absolutely no atmosphere. Crap turnout by Coventry fans.

Even if you draw a top team you know they will play their reserves. So you don't even get to see the best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
