First half a bit disappointing for me. WHY can’t the Manager figure out that Georginio and Piroe need to switch places. Piroe is a finisher. And Georgi is a creative player. Duh!!

Meanwhile Geronimo the horse wins again at 14/1.

So who has to come off at halftime? Sounds like James is back after the Sunderland debacle. Sounds like Rutter is off. So perhaps Paddy or Gnonto for him? Is Ampadu looking sluggish? If so, Gruev?

Can’t quite tell what are issues are from the radio broadcast via LUTV. Are Coventry copying Sunderland’s “low block and nick a point” strategy? Again, can’t quite tell from the radio or the comments here.

We will be better in the 2nd half attacking our preferred end.

Weak stream again for me. No prostate jokes please.
From what I saw it was too intricate and trying to walk the ball in to the net. Rutter should score. Summerville should’ve ignored Rutter and gone right and shot himself. Going to be a game of few chances.
I sense some tiredness

Gnonto, Gruev and Joseph are the ones I'd like to see on. Too many players on the bench who offer nothing.

I know. Totally agree. But that doesn’t change the fact he needs to start making subs sooner. Real opportunity to get three points here and claw ourselves back in the race.

Coventry aren’t really doing anything Joe. We are being so wasteful with poor passing and OVER, OVER intricate forward play. It just isn’t nice to watch. Rutter is running but poor quality trying to hold the ball up.Ampadu isn’t awful, but I think Kamara, to quote the legendary Jackson Browne, is running on empty.

Geo needs to play his way into the game - rather than trying a trick or elaborate lay off everytime the ball is played into him. All defenders do when he tries to use his strength is take a pace backwards and he generally falls over.

Thanks so much. That’s my sense with out seeing it. Again, I go back to not making some changes to the lineup. It was sorely needed last match (at least early subs) and it sounds like it’s pure stubbornness getting in the way of doing what’s necessary.
