Stop Conceding Silly Goals - Coleman

Last updated : 22 October 2008 By Covsupport News Service
Coventry City manager Chris Coleman was left raging about the goals his side conceded late in the game against Burnley which turned a draw into a defeat.

Said Coleman to the media after the match: "We don't want to be where we were last season - struggling - at the wrong end of the table but too many performances like that and we will be.

"I can't afford to let that happen and it's easy for me to say that but we've all got to be thinking the same thing. Hopefully this will be a wake-up call.

"We said at half-time don't sit on the lead because 1-0 is a dangerous scoreline but then we concede a poor goal.

"We've been conceding silly goals and we need to stop that. But to be fair we're not pulling up trees at the other end of the pitch either."
