First in the league in record breaking fashion and people are seriously saying they'd take a draw against the team in *checks notes* 8th position Tbf I think, or like to think, those saying 'take a draw' are saying it because they just don't want to lose to them. Not that they don't think we're more than capable of battering them, even with them being in good form and at home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are 1 nil down in the 89th minute with 3 mins injury time remaining, ONLY then would I take / be happy for a draw, against these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have to go into hiding if we lost basically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say I see them as a team bang in form and scoring goals, while also this being their big game clearly from their fans perspective. Then again I see the other side of the argument. I guess I’m thinking more with the heart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekerz Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January Tbf, i understand not wanting to lose aspect but after them two shitshows at F***st away the last two times we've been there, i desperately want to see us hand out a pasting to one of our "rivals" on their turf. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree. Don’t get me wrong I won’t be jumping up and down at a draw, but I also won’t be too down. Again though depends on circumstances- if it’s a draw like Ipswich away I will be raging but if it’s a fair no late nightmares game I’ll be more of ‘meh let’s move on a point away better than none’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ealingfox Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January Call me a pessimist but I wouldn't be surprised if we lost this one, it's all set up for it. We're due a bad result after a cracking run, got the Manager of the Month curse to contend with and Ndidi out. Not far off the biggest game in their history and they'll be really up for it, I can see us getting caught cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countesthorpe Fox 1884 12 Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January Bookies (well bet 365) have them at 14/5 and us at 19/20, which for an away game at an inform team is pretty short and as the saying goes I’ve never seen a bookie on a bicycle so the logical side does dictate a win for us.

adejo92 Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January I wont be happy with anything short of three points. We have won 21 of our 26 games. They've only won 9 of their 26 games. They have drawn 10 games and lost 7. They are sat 8th in a pretty poor league. Not to mention, stats & facts aside, their fanbase mock our arrogance and confidence, I think a convincing win will put them back in their box. A points better than no points, but equally I'd take Chlamydia over ghonnoria. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their home form is somewhat mediocre though - drawn 3 during this upturn in form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filbertway Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January We should be beating these as we should 95% of the league. The quality at our disposal far outweighs Coventry and most of this league, even with the Championship Yaya Toure out. They outplayed us the majority of the game at our place and if they could finish would have been fully deserving of the 3 or 4 goals they'd have bagged. This is an excellent opportunity for us to show just how far we've come in 4/5 months. I don't just expect us to win, I expect us to go there and make a statement.

Dan LCFC Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January "Form team Coventry" have less points than us over the past 5 games, past 10 games, past 15 etc... probably last whatever number you can possibly enter to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTY_FOX Posted 12 January Share Posted 12 January 13 hours ago, Md9 said: Please just go 3-0 up in the first half hour to shut these fools up. I want an cannon hat trick and have the whole team do a mavadidi and sit in their stands like he did against brum after scoring. There was a game against them when we were awful a couple of seasons before league 1 that we were 3 up at half time. They started going wild because birch was taking the piss on the mic. Glorious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
