Hard game this one. Win it and i think play offs are ours.

Didn't get to follow it live today, but fantastic result and performance. Fair play to Tonda and the team. Amazed just how bitter and whiny the Coventry fans are as well - they're top of the league and almost certainly going up automatically. Enjoy it FML.

Edozie is a good player. The bigger issue is who is covering now? Fellows is off form. Matsuki is not a winger. Jayrob is injured. Arma is gone. Can't even play one of Wellington or Manning on the left wing because ones is injured. ... We have 2 fit wingers and matsuki. Will we see a formation change?

Any update on scienza?

We will miss Downes if that is the line up (although i think he will be partially rested). Will have to repeat the Fulham game plan (minus leo).

I don't think the attacking players are on particularly great form atm. And, as i said going through January, we don't have the depth in the attacking 3rd to sustain us - Selling AA means we are reliant on Archer (who is beyond poor), Stewart can't manage more than 45min, and Larin (who i rate vs sides like WBA who are physical and want to sit deep) can't do it all. Now Scienza is likely out for a decent period, and JayRob and wellington are out as well, we look both very thin on the ground and out of form. Azaz can't play all the time either. Reckon we're perilously close to the wheels coming off this season sadly, right for the crucial run in . Dropping points vs the likes of WBA, Oxford, Pompey etc is going to cost us now that the crunch is on.

I wonder if he'll be fit for Wrexham. Not feeling confident after tonight 😕

Worrying if so... he really hasn't played much.

It was called by numerous people at half time. 4-4-2, Stewart and Larin, 2 wingers, get the crosses in. He waited till basically the last minutes of the game to essentially do that with Archer, Larin, Edozie, and Fellows. Its too late (obviously). He's done well lately, but his naivety/inexperience cost us tonight (won't be the last time, and it is what it is with him 🤷‍♂️) - but the people who can't see this and won't countenance any criticism of Eckert are just burying their heads in the sand and lacking all balance when it comes to our performances. Its perfectly reasonable to say when he's done well at times, and when he does badly at others - particularly as most of the forum telegraphed this game midway through the first half yet the manager waited until the 83rd minute... 😄

3 points dropped by Eckert, 1 point saved by Edozie, Larin, and Peretz...

We scored from a cross, then spent 5min refusing to cross. Make it make sense.

Would you look at that... we actually attacked down the wing and crossed it for the striker. Well played edozie and larin, saved Eckert's blushes, maybe.

Tonda needs to learn from this. Propaganda football all night long - WBA couldn't have dreamed we'd set up this badly and refuse to change for 85min. Joke. And a golden chance at the playoffs thrown away. This level of performance cannot happen again.

WBA looking far the better side here.

What the actual fuck was that.
