Your Coventry City v Southampton Match Reports

codge added 22:17 - Dec 13 Having 72 percent of play and you only have basically the same amount of shots shows you how bad we are in these games, awful lucky to get a draw and we will struggle to score many goals playing this way. Another 2pts lost and can’t see us catching the top two at this rate.

allsaint54 added 22:25 - Dec 13 Yet another c--- performance from Manning. When will RM realise Bree is a far better all round player. By continuing to play slow, boring build up play we will never be better than a play off side at best which considering the players we have is a tragedy

Bawdrip added 22:25 - Dec 13 Not a great performance. Gave the ball away too much despite having so much possession. Still a useful away point. Just not creating enough. Adam had three good chances but shooting was off tonight.

silverspringsaint added 22:42 - Dec 13 Well, if Adam A has had his shooting boots today, we might have won this one. As it was, we dropped points - made it too easy for Coventry to keep us out, restrict our chances. Things looked up a bit when the wide men subs came on and the game opened up. But we do need to know when to inject variety and pace in our attacks. Plenty of control, but this type of performance won’t be enough for us to catch the top 2. Shout out to Bazunu for the great save at the death!

I_would added 22:54 - Dec 13 Boring. Crap. 2 points lost again. Manager is a clown. Smallbone would have been useful in the Italian army (6 reverse gears, one forward). Manning is probably worse than Hooiveld. Che Adams ought to work for MI5. Utter tippy tappy gash crap.

SaintPaulVW added 04:58 - Dec 14 We were just too slow in build up play to get past a team that were very well organised in defence. Yet again we let another goal in to a quick direct attack helped by a few individual errors. Things improved when we brought on Edozie and Fraser. Heads didn't go down and we got a quick goal to get back on level terms. Overall a bit dull but a point earned away from home may prove to be useful at the end of the season. COYR

Flamingbankers added 11:05 - Dec 14 Good news - it Looks as if our current squad, manager, ownership and results will keep us in the Championship! Probably not a bad thing but only if we can build from there. Looking ahead, hopefully, we'll do well enough to stay in this league. Going up or staying; either way we'll probably lose all our best players and will be in the 'do-do' whatever league we're in next year. So on that basis we'd better pull our socks up and get promoted for a season of slaughter in the Prem! But with Martin I just can't see promotion happening. Life will be even tougher in the championship next year - we'd better enjoy moderate success while we can! I can see us left only with a shell of a team if we stay in this division (players likely to leave: Bednarek, KWP, Harwood-Bellis, Stu Armstrong, A Armstrong, Adams, Downes possibly Alcarez). I'd say this is a critical season for the club - aren't they all? but more than most. Yet is the determination, urgency and flawless strategy there? Anything greater than any of the above will be a massive achievement, for example, keeping good players and developing a strong squad that can compete in the Prem - all in all that's the best we can hope for (but again, I just can't see this happening under our present management and ownership).

Bowlercow added 20:25 - Dec 14 We created more chances last night They were not clear cut chances but they were better than half chances AA could and perhaps should have had a hat trick Manning really isn't a quality defender. Once again his error led to their goal. If we had a fit alternative natural LB the perhaps he would be replaced It says something when a RB plays better than him in the wrong position Kammy should be replaced by either Fraser or Edozie we missed the width that he gives I don't get those that criticize the style of play Don't just ball watch but look for the movement of players It is quite intricate at times Some will point to LCFC with envy but their style of play is exactly the same Unfortunately they have better finishers than us I am not a gambler but I am tempted to have a punt on promotion via the play offs If you think I would be throwing money down the drain the offer me odds
