the wedge Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 Can anyone give me any pointers as to where I can see the game in London town? Anywhere, I'm easy. Just moved up here and the rugby seems to be taking preference at the usual places... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch01 Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 3 wins in a row is too good to be true, hopefully we can get a point though. 1-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsacar saint Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 How often do we win 3 games in a row. Ido not not think Coventry are any great shakes, though.[ Would settle for a point]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintKenny Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 Just leaving now, got my long sleeved away shirt today, going to need it looking at the weather. Lets hope we can keep up the 2 - 0 winning streak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 So nice to have an away game I don't need to travel to!!! My prediction is that i'll be half cut before kick off for a change, and for the score.... I don't want to jinx it, couldn't live it down if we lost, the lads I coach would rip the **** out of me.

VectisSaint Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 Blimey Alps it's not often we've agreed but this and the score line. Killer won't be match fit IMHO Killer not in squad, but would have been silly to change the team much anyway. I'll stick with my prediction of 1-1, and will be happy if we get that. Anything else has to be a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire Saint Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 Coventry are in a bit of freefall at the moment only winning once in their previous 8 games. I think they are there for the taking and now is the best possible time to play them. If the boys go in with the confidence they should have from the last 2 games i can see us winning it. It wont be easy but as long as KD stays in great form and our defence do ok i can see it being 1-2 to Saints. However as we know for some reason teams who are doing bad seem to do well against us and i have a feeling this could be one of those games. I worry a lot about our defence and the last 2 games i know if it was majority of the teams in this league they would of taken many of them. If you Give Eastwood or Morrison those chances they will bury them most of the time. So i think the Sky curse will continue and we could let in a few, i think it will be 3-1 Coventry. Hope they proove me wrong and don't buckle on TV. + almost 3000. I agree wholeheartedly with this sensible post. I can see us winning or losing, as does St Marco. I am prepeared to go a bit further by saying I can see a draw as well. I don't mind putting my neck on the line, after all these predictions are just for fun aren't they.

St Chalet Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 The undertone of this game is SISU Vs Lowe. I wonder how they are finding the credit crisis? Sky presenter on the Brum game also keeps calling us 'vastly improving'. Fresh from that curse, the game being on Sky and not being able to remember when we strung 3 back to wins together I am going for 2-0 defeat.

itchen Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 After today's other results, we could go 10th (taking QPR's place) if we win by two goals, 11th if we only win by 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobM Posted 4 October, 2008 Share Posted 4 October, 2008 I think you will find that was an own goal I think you'll find he has scored more than one goal this season. And whoever claims the goal, the fact we were in a goalscoring position means the formation and tactics were working. We were in an attacking position, we gained a goal, we won. In my book, that's a success. We were all crying out for some consistency under GB, which we now have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
