Gotta get our revenge

I've no idea who's fit but I would stick with Walsh in goal. Kone and Koli up front. Smyth on the right. Madsen, Vale and Hayden in middle. Defence as above.

Thing is, I don't see us winning this at all so it's all kind of moot who plays where. This is why i'd stick with Walsh - aside from his last 20mins his previous 250 mins were solid so give him a chance to show he can bounce back. Can't be dropping GKs every time they have a mare.

Since early December, Coventry's results have been average, and conceding a league double to Ipswich. We should just get out there and have a right go at them: nothing to lose having already been humiliated 7-1. There are some rather ordinary sides in this division who can now claim Coventry City as one of their scalps. I look at some of our home form this season though and shake my head. Revenge should be motivation enough to send Cov home with that feeling that they've been in a game. Can't call it, but if Burrell was fit I'd be more confident. Having said that, I hope we stuff them.

There on the crest of a slump were the perfect opponent

can’t see us getting anything from this one they’ll move the ball far too quick for us press high and we will mess it up

ronnie gotta play jimmy rb pack midfield and hopefully a set piece will nick it for us but go down early could be 3 or 4 defeat

Why would you drop Walsh, he has to be the future and needs minutes on the pitch. I still can't face watching the Wrexham highlights, but from watching the game live it was the players in front of him that caused those two late goals. Walsh seems a lot more settled than his earlier appearances this season.

[MINCER]

I would like to see a young inexperienced Keeper like Walsh make his mistakes whilst on loan at another club, he’s made some decent saves in most games but all 3 goals conceded last week could be said were down to him.
Would like us to re-sign Dieng on a free transfer and send Walsh on loan, in the meantime I would admit Nardi is poor at commanding his penalty area but he’s the best of a bad bunch right now.

[daveshads]

Agreed - Nardi pretty good for me. I think he comes in for far too much criticism. Would have saved 1 or 2 of those last week.

He's 24 yrs old in April and if he aint good enough now he never will be. He's played enough football since being a teenager.....

Play him to gain more championship minutes, or release him.

To be fair to Joe Walsh and the other 2 keepers its not just those that are struggling with set pieces and plenty of defences and keepers in the prem that can't cope with a decent ball into the box and avoid conceding from them

Can't remember the lad from Wrexham Saturday but everyone we had a set piece the ref spoke to him no end of times before it was taken and how he never got booked beyond me just think our defence needs to be a bit more savvy as well as the GK whoever is playing

[Acton Stations]

I wish we had both a settled defence AND a settled 'keeper. Continual changing is an obvious recipe for defensive disasters.

[72bus]

We are going to win this

[cross it Dave]

That is my belief too.

[SheepRanger]

Best of luck today to all those going to the game.

After ladt week I've decided to go on the lash with the lads in Bath.

May the force be with you!
