It really is quite the difference to have a decent 'keeper.

YESSSSSS! 1-2 to Saints. FT

How did that stay out? Peretz!

Ref has this down as a draw.

All so Saintsy

Penalty to Coventry.

Matsuki!! Great corner.

Close to a second there.

Those subs make us weaker.

Jander with a great chance. Looked lacking in energy.

Haji Wright off.

Coventry winning plenty of headers in attacking areas. Peretz nicely positioned to save again.

FK in Manning territory.

Yessss! Downes.

Fellows to come on late in the game and score the winner with a mis-hit cross.

I'll take 0-0 at half time but Coventry looked dangerous in the last 5 minutes. Could easily have been ahead. Saints with some tidy build up play but Coventry mostly able to deal with our ponderous attacks.

Saints twice have now come close to conceding just before half time yet again.

Peretz saves!

Saints leaving attackers upfield while defending a corner. Yes please. More of that.

Larin needed some support there.

Larin close.

The plan seems to be to keep 'em out. That'll work until Coventry score from the first corner. I'm expecting a heavyish defeat today.

Injuries starting to take their toll. Not very confident that the squad can handle the run-in pressure given their flaky form over the season. Hope they can prove me wrong.

After tomorrow's game I suspect we'll be concentrating on the FA Cup - until we're not. Saints are too streaky to make up the points lost in too many indifferent performances and now the injuries are starting to stack up as well.

Why the reluctance to put crosses in? The few times they actually stick on in the box Saints look dangerous. Fannying around in our own half still seems to be the easy option far too often.
