You’ll not see a clearer pen all season. Justice from Pape! He’s been excellent all game

Impressed with Ribiero too - he’s looked pretty solid

I recognise this referee, and in this league that is a very bad thing. Complete muppet

Gueye is playing really well but what can he do with Hedges and Weimann both 20 yards away from him at all times Hoping to see him and Dennis together in the future

The ‘Hedges can defend’ stick is a complete myth isn’t it. He tracks back and isn’t lazy but his actual defending is useless, he’s just a body back there And Pears’ distribution. Holy fuck has it got gammons for feet or something. Rubbish

Heard the first “we want Venkys out” chant

It’s a beauty. Seen it a few times so it must be owned by a regular.

WBA squad is like a whose who of players we’ve been linked with over the last few years (or players Chaddy wanted us to sign) Styles, Wallace, Swift and Maja

I’d say it’s more that Foreshaw, Woodrow and Sanderson are shit and Dennis has played about 1 hour in a year. Kargbo should be starting now over Hedges though But yeah, see the above and considering its the middle of February = shite transfer window

Well that’s just not true is it

Given the options we have yes. We were the absolute pits when he went off against QPR. He offers a lot more than Cantwell, ACD, Hedges that's clear as day from this season.

Just to see the reaction from @roverandout

Funny that Carsley was favourite in the Derby market a few days ago (ex-player) and now favourite in ours (ex-player). Can’t see him wanting to work under our current lot.

It is utter shite and I’m pretty sure it’s the cause of why half the Irish and Scottish Rugby team are Aussies, Kiwis and Saffers.

Dolan's looked alright to me the other day.

Pompey 3-0 the other week. Yeah we're shite away from home against rubbish promoted teams (don't think we've beaten one for 3 or 4 years away). But at home, against bottom of the league, who haven't won an away game all season and have conceeded 63 (!!!!) goals in 30 games, whose goal difference is 15 goals worse than the next team - if we're calling that 'tough' then we might as well give up.

Dolan, Dennis, Kargbo and Gueye as the front 4 in whichever way fits. Cantwell doesn't deserve to start.

Whilst I agree with the sentiment - we can't be calling a Saturday home match against bottom of the league who have to travel 6 hours as 'tough'. They haven't won a match away from home all season. By default it is our easiest match of the year. (which means a defeat would make it even more interesting with the crowd!)

Feels like a shot to nothing tonight. Club back in turmoil, no manager, away from home mid-week and big under-dogs. Win with next up a home match against bottom of the league and well, it's suddenly a very attractive proposition to anyone unemployed with coaching badges. Optimism - Felt like we lost every mid-week match we had with Mowbray (although it still feels that way!) Optimism - Will the players be fired up after everything that's happened this week? (although they could equally be depressed about it all) Travis will play a big role in which Blackburn Rovers turns up tonight.

Clinton Morrison struggles to string a sentence together, I wouldn’t worry about what he has to say

They have a very good team Coventry. Shows what happens when a club reinvests their money from sales. £35m for Gyokeres and Hamer and reinvested with 12 players costing over £2m each in 3 windows. Our £35m from Wharton, Szmodics, Raya etc has barely seen £2m reinvested in total I’d be very surprised if we finish above them Just to add - not a single one of Coventrys starting 11 tonight was there 2 seasons ago. Complete build on the back of those two big sales. It’s much rosier at Cov since Waggott left the building

Welcome to the dark side

Wouldn't it be up to Derby to announce it though? They're not waiting around for us to get a replacement before confirming themselves.

It is a bit strange that nothing has been announced yet
