Tale

Looks completely out of sorts doesn’t he. He looks like a golfer with the yips.

I did mention that. Despite being down to ten, I thought they looked an average side, even in the first half.

Lampard seemed to be singling out THB, what a prize wanker. Completely battered them second half. Yes they sat deeper being a man short but there was a different attitude from Saints, more urgency. It was an enthralling second half. Scienza once again magnificent, THB and Quarshie were both excellent, and it’s hard to see how he can drop Quarshie on that performance. Wood was better, Manning improved second half, and needed to. Armstrong busy all day. Two points dropped. Hard to believe Coventry are so far ahead of the pack judged on today.

Martin should never have sold the young left back who went to Brentwood and is now with Rangers.

And at the other end, only Scienza as an attacking threat, nothing down the right. Azaz is lost without Fellows.

It looks unbalanced. Prefer Manning and Wellington as FBs, Wood out and Robinson starting on the right before making way for Fellows.

Wood needs to repay Eckert’s faith today. He’s been a static, clumsy ball watcher lately.

One thing we’ve probably learned in these first three matches - neither Duckett or Pope have test match techniques against high class pace bowling.

Yearn

Hard to believe it’s nearly 15 years ago under Adkins we beat Coventry 4-0 to clinch automatic promotion.
