You mention its ur first double in 3 years, We done the double agaainst Barnsley last season. I reckon we could get a few doubles under our belt this year. Great to get back to winning ways, thought we looked sharp again! eusebio added 08:37 - Jan 24 crazyface added 10:42 - Jan 24 As I expected it turn out to be a relegation dogfight type of game. Barnet were awful and shouldn't be even in this league. Unless Paul Fairclough pulls another miracle off they will go down. We should have won comfortably but for some shocking finishing. Barnett could even hit the target after having the ball rolled invitingly into his stride just inside the penalty area and Sinclair also missed the target when bursting though a collander Barnet defence at the end. The bast player on the pitch was Issac Reid who tried his best to provide our "strikers" with enough opportunities to score that they might actally get one in. Awful game. SomersetHoops added 18:01 - Jan 24 I was a bit under the weather so unusualy for a weekend home game took the lazy way by watching this game on sky. I did write an earlier report, but was not on top form so lost it. Anyway, it was great to see how Wayne Routledge slotted straight into the team and scored a super goal from a superb pass by AT. They gave Wayne MOM on tv, but I think it was a close call between Derry and AT for me with WR a close third. Its interesting how you get a different perspective on tv and I could see the superb work Derry does and a super shot which deserved a goal - only a top class save by Westwood saved it. Ish Miller looked good, sharp and drew another Westwood class save. He looks the most like a 'proper striker' that we've had since Paul Furlong. HH has been looking as if he is carrying an injury and Hulse has been about as sharp as a bannana, so we need Miller to stay fit and sharp and lead the line. I'm very pleased we've got Routledge for all the reasons we agree on, but he is not Jamie Mackie and we should not expect him to track back as Mackie did to the detriment of his goalscoring in my opinion. This means particularly Gorks and Conolly need to stay 'on station' more because there is no Makie to cover their errors - glaring in the case of the Marlon King goal. I could have bet on King getting that goal and the only way to have prevented was if I had put £20 on him to score first - in which case he probably would have scored last. Even if his goal had won the game I would still not want King at LR and the fans gave him an appropriate reception. I don't go into many games expecting a win, but I did for this one and all credit to Coventry for a great performance - other teams are going to find them tough to beat if they continue to perform like they did on Sunday
