Yes, let's hope they underestimate us and play their reserves! Might give us a chance.
In all seriousness though, I have no idea - doesn't look like it bar the goalie.

In all seriousness though, I have no idea - doesn't look like it bar the goalie.If we lose this & ETH is our manager next season I will be truly gobsmacked.
This is prob exactly what a Coventry fan would say
I think ETH is already gone. Ineos keeping him till the end of the season as there’s nothing redeemable left of the season bar a Europa or conference league placeExcited for the unchagned XI. Way to show the lads standards matter.
Actually on-second thoughts, he'll probably start Antony...it's a win-win this. I obviously want us to win the game but if we do lose then surely it means ETH will go.
It will be a really nervy and tight game I think. We really really need an early goal. If we get to 60 or 70 minutes at 0-0 then I don't think I fancy us.They'll score, we'll fight hard to equalise only for them to score again after we do in minutes. Then we'll fight hard to score another one, only to concede in 90. + 7 from some silly mistek or a penalty.
I like this logic. But I think we’re winning this comfortably anyway, the skill gap is just too large
Doesn’t that make it a lose-lose? You either have a trophyless season after being beaten by a Chanpionship club, or you ensure a trophyless season NEXT year because you have EtH in charge?!Is this the ultimate "can a loss be a win" match?I'm betting on Coventry to have 10+ shots on target.
I have zero confidence in this team to win this game comfortably and it wouldn't even surprise me if we got knocked out.
I don't like the logic. How can you enjoy football if you get to a semi final of a cup competition not wanting anything but winning it with 100% of your heart. I'd much rather win the FA Cup, enjoy it, and then just trust whatever comes next is for the best.
Agree with your other point, I think United win regardless. I expect Coventry to shy a bit from the occasion too. And they've been quite lucky to get this far.Its so easy to nullify our team that i think even Coventry can pull that off
Watch them high press us and theyll only have to score one goal to go through
Ive lost every bit of optimismIt's amazing that we genuinely cannot take this game as a given. Coventry can win this.
No, because I actually think he won't be here next season regardless but not winning the cup guarantees it.If Cov or any team do their homework we are easy to set up against, sit deep and wait for us to squander possession then run straight through us
I think we will squeak a win but wouldn't be surprised by a loss either way expecting another chaotic performanceCan we add a shot prediction league? I'm going with 23 shots for Coventry.50 50Our experience of playing at Wembley will see us through. Comfortable 2-0 winAnyone going to the game? I'll be there.
No reason why it shouldn’t be an easy win for us. I know they knocked out Wolves but that was a Wolves team missing many of its key players and it still took two stoppage time goals to seal it.
Yep, block 115.Anyone going to the game? I'll be there.
The good news! - We've avoided Michael Oliver.
They will have a field day.We need to field players that don‘t give the ball away. I‘d put Antony in over Garnacho for this one.Onana

Bad news: We still get some other incompetent idiotIf they score the first goal.........whoooooo boy it gonna be a rough nite.Wonder if any of our injured centre backs will be back?
NoIs this the ultimate "can a loss be a win" match?
There's no way we'll lose this one. Couple of goals in the first half from long balls over the top. They'll be naive and over excited, make some silly mistakes and it'll be a nothing game.What are they like on set pieces, particularly aerially?
Dalot injured?I really hope we can cause an upset.
Do you have to choose that formation because that is what we play ? Because you know a one man midfield of anybody never mind an 18 year old isn't very strong.
Really good
That’s Chelsea utterly fecked
He’s hardly going to make any big calls against his employers team
Well, then...
We just have to not be over-awed by the occasion, don't be intimidated by the Coventry players' ability to find teammates with the ball, and when they go up a couple goals early, just don't let our heads drop. We can take it to penalties and then it's anyone's game.- Status
