city-till-i-die 7 Posted August 6, 2010 Surely losing our 1st game of the season and Ruddy making mistake after mistake, Jackson not scoring at keast 3 on his home debut...we are favorites for relegation now!!! LEAGUE ONE HERE WE COME [:|][:|][:|]The defending wasnt the best but we have got 7 new players to bleed into the team... im 100% it will et better..onwards an upwards[Y] OTBC p.s still think we are in desperate need of a RB as R.Martin doesnt install me with great faith in this league Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QueensHills Canary 0 Posted August 6, 2010 Good post mate, i think we will get better,,its 1 game, we did look shakey at the back. But the new lads are good players, hence other teams being after them. Lets get behind them,,, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted August 7, 2010 Why, Why, Why do people keep on about how poor Russell Martin was tonight when in reality he was much better than the poor CB''s? Not a good performance and will hopefully get better! Watford deserve credit cause they looked good today and we''ll play far worse sides in the Championship!

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted August 7, 2010 My opinion of R Martin is - Hes limited at Championship level cause of his lack of pace but he wasn''t poor tonight! The CB''s were much more problematic and will have to improve otherwise they''ll be constant liabilities! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted August 7, 2010 I don''t share your optimism on Ward and in particular sicknote Whitbread but I hope I''m proved wrong! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smudger 0 Posted August 7, 2010 Anybody with the first clue about football would''ve seen that the main problem we had tonight was that each of our 4 midfielders could not win a tackle.Without Darrel Russell and Korey we have not one ball winner in our midfield.Yes our defence was poor and it''s a worry to me, but our midfield was woeful! Watford were far from the most physical side we will face this season and unless we get some ball winners in that midfield it is going to be one hell of a hard long season for us.On the positive side we look to have plenty of creativity and I am sure that all of our strikers will get goals for us.

xxxx 0 Posted August 7, 2010 Why do people think Coventry kept sending Ward out on loan and then let him leave on a free ? anybody who watched that tonight will have the answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
