* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Coventry City Match - Day Thread *

[Alzi]

Let’s not lose sight of the important things here….

Are we still top of the xG table?

 

[Wiseman_Vaughn]

Gyokeres was the big difference there, who knew?

He was fantastic today in a very poor Coventry team. What a signing he would have been.

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

I can’t see Bielsa to be honest, but I really hope that’s the end of Wilder now after that, just fed up of it all now and I’m usually an optimist.

 

[TeaCider]

I've stuck with him as long as I could.

I think he's got to go.

Horrible decision to drop Giles, and we never looked like scoring.

 

[futureboy]

Well, there's the proof. It doesn't matter who plays, or in what formation. The bottom line is we don't score and we don't win.

 

[atomicloonybin aka ALB]

Forss must wonder what the **** he's got himself into. Sit on the bench for a Premier League team, or never get used for a crappy Championship team.

 

[Erimus74]

We are in trouble every season with Gibson at the helm.

That maybe so, but what is the alternative?

No one will come in & buy the club, Gibbo wont spend the money, we may as well have kept Neil Warnock here, Pulis before etc if Gibbos only vision is to keep us in the championship spending a pittance

 

[Smogonsea]

Can’t believe how poor that was when they had 2 weeks to plan for it. Had nothing and were never in the game. Coventry won the game without getting out of second gear.

 

[SuperStu]

Dreadful match for Wilder. Dropping Jones and Giles was utterly stupid - to then be bringing them on after 50 odd minutes is just humiliating.

 

[Wiseman_Vaughn]

Well, there's the proof. It doesn't matter who plays, or in what formation. The bottom line is we don't score and we don't win.

We don't really create chances - We looked more likely in the second half but it was all bluster.

 

[Frazza65]

Utter dispiriting rubbish. On a brighter note I had a superb nap last 10 mins of the 1st half and didn’t miss a thing

 

[Brick_Tamland]

I can't see us sacking Wilder if Gibson thinks he's just waiting to get another job. We'll want the compensation money from another club rather than pay Wilder and his coaches to leave.

 

[Scrug]

I might ask my boss if I can start working Saturdays.

 

[Wiseman_Vaughn]

Perfect platform for Bielsa with nothing to lose

 

[TeessideCleveland]

I might ask my boss if I can start working Saturdays.

Our players should ask their boss if they can start working on Saturdays too

 

[jonny_greenings_sock]

Marcelo Bielsa, Kieran Scott and Steve Gibson?? Have a word lads, that’s ridiculous.

 

[SuperStu]

Its absolutely bonkers that most of us seem to think Wilder wants to leave, and the club probably want him to leave, and both are clinging on hoping they get some cash out of it. Wtfs going to happen to us in the meantime? I understand the club not wanting to lose out on all that dosh but are we actually going to let him relegate us rather than just pay up?

 

[Gunslinger]

As long as were pushing toward the top of the xG charts come January, we can strengthen and go all out for the xG title

18 month contract.. can we loan him out?

 

[Moreno]

Bye bye Chris. Can’t say I will miss you! Performances have been garbage all year.
