Millwall vs Coventry

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Don't be obtuse, you know what I meant. We were both responding to PUSB's post.

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

Should win at least 3-0 you'd think - Millwall lost to Barnet at home and struggled past relegation candidates Shrewsbury through an undeserved penalty and some of the worst defending I've seen in my life for the first goal.

We are just too good for average teams in this league. Maybe we'll come unstuck against the better teams(haven't seen any yet, probably won't be any).

Welcome back Dion.

If Murphy is cleared to play tomorrow, I imagine he'll come in for Lameiras who played 120 minutes mid-week so:

Burge

Willis Ricketts Johnson Stokes

Vincelot Fleck

JOB Maddison Murphy

Armstrong

That will likely be the starting xi for tomorrow. More Pace.

I think he *might* start Tudgay

 

[WestEndExcile]

Both teams started with a win and both slipped up mid-week. Too early to be sure about anything, but likely to be a close one. Expecting 1-1 but hoping for a 2-1 win to Cov.

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Jacob Murphy cleared to play

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Armstrong back in the side, Murphy only on the bench.

Millwall: Forde; Cummings, Webster, Craig, Beevers; Onyedinma, Upson, Williams, L.Martin; Gregory, Morison

Cov: Burge, Willis, Ricketts, Johnson, Stokes, O'Brien, Vincelot, Fleck, Lameiras, Maddison, Armstrong.

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

That Millwall team looks good today. Midfield especially.

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

0-1, Adam Armstrong. Lee Burge saved a pen after 3 minutes as well.

 

[SkyBlueElephant]

2-0

Lameiras

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Great start from us! Still not shook that Coventry City mentality of expecting us to throw it away late in the second half though.

 

[SkyBlueElephant]

3-0 Armstrong

[CCFC_Charlie]

Fucking hell, City

 

[KevinMcallister]

oops , Guess Coventry are good then Jockney?

 

[ConnorFackinThomas]

This is quite hilarious. In regards to both the scoreline and Jockney's prior comments.

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Pretty pleased with that tbh

 

[SkyBlueElephant]

Millwall tried to kick us off the pitch early on but they never really got near us

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

I guess we played like we did against Wigan then.

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Could Millwall cope with us then?

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Maybe I was right to totally disregard the opposition? Not too sure really.

 

[PUSBCCFC]

Loving our defence at the moment. Pace in Willis, power in Reda, composure by Ricketts and pure battle from Stokes. Love it.

Two games in and Coventry have seemingly won the league. Easy that, well done.

I know. We're just that good.

Yep everyone knows the league is finished after 2 games. Everyone on this thread is clearly proclaiming us to be league 1 champions 2015/16.

Bradford had won the league a month ago, that was even more impressive.

Fuck it lads, no being happy that we won. It's only two games, we aren't allowed.

 

[Jockney]

We were utterly terrible and the game changed on the penalty incident. Worst home record in the football league over the past two years and you could see the confidence drain out of the players after Coventry's first. We completely wilted. Too many players from last year and a completely inept backline. Forde, Webster, Beevers and Williams either need to be dropped or moved on: all either not good enough or completely disinterested. Big learning curve for Harris and I think we will see the youth come to the fore in the coming weeks if today's performance was any indication.

Best players on the park Lameiras and Armstrong. Mowbray's got good scouts and contacts and more importantly forward thinking; we brought in two former players who are now past their best and a Gillingham reject. Hard to judge how good they'll be over a season given we're a mess and, if reports from those who went on Tuesday are to believed, the performance wasn't any different from the Barnet game where we could have lost by four or five, but was impressed by Coventry's organisation and gameplan. Not particularly flashy but ruthless and persistent. Fair play. I see the snarky comments already but of course I never actually said anything to disparage Coventry's team at any point.

On to Barnsley.

 

[Cas]

Coventry fans really are arrogant fucking c***. Especially that fucking racist.

Fair play, enjoy it. I'd be feeling very pleased right now if roles were reversed. I thought Cov were very impressive on the day without being spectacular. More Bilbao than Barca, I think...
