Is this the same Coventry team that did a job on us?

Definitely a bit of schadenfreude after Coventry's antics against us.

You do what you have to of course, but good luck to them sticking 9 behind the ball next season without Gyokeres as an outlet.
 
What pressure! though. That one kick just cost coventry 170million quid! He wont live that moment down. Hope he gets some form of counselling.

Yeah I was thinking the best outcome for us is having Coventry in our division next season. Without Gyokeres they'll be a lot weaker.

Whatever you think of Luton their style has been effective in this league and they would have kept their squad together.
 
I haven’t seen much from Gyokeres over the last couple of months that suggests he’s as good as people seem to keep saying he is. I’m not sure he’s good enough for the Premier League, but I guess time will tell.

He looked a real handful in a very limited Coventry team.

Without Gyokeres and Hamer Coventry will struggle.

Michael Carrick was found wanting on the night, he didn’t have any answer to Coventry’s change of shape.

Luton have gone at them, got in behind them and gone up against them physically. All the things we didn’t do.

Sorry, but don't agree with this at all.

Coventry are a counter attacking team, but they were even more negative in the second leg against us, with 10 men behind the ball, reliant upon modest counter attacks and set pieces.

It was a game plan that only works maybe one in five games, but equally we didn't do enough to break them down.

Today they had to be more positive of course and it opened them up a bit.
 
Coventry beat us in the semi final, Luton beat us a couple of weeks before.

The better team over the season won through, which is fair.

We weren't anywhere near good enough when it came to the crunch.

I think Coventry were playing for penalties at the Riverside, the goal was just a bonus.

You may be right but form goes up and down and maybe Luton hit a good streak at the right time, in saying that they won 1, drew 1 and lost 1 in the play offs, so they hardly burned it up.

They finished 3rd, they were bettered by two teams. Over 46 games they were the third best side.

The play offs are what they are, and penalties are a pish poot way of ending the season, why no replay, there's no hurry to finish the season?

Agree the play offs should not be decided on penalties but on a separate point they do keep the season alive for clubs in the top half and everybody knows the rules if you don’t finish top two.
