Guest neesy111 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Someone's fat fingers just locked the Other Games thread in excitement Me. p*ssed. On train back from Birmingham. How was the game? Awful. We never looked like scoring really other than the mad scramble which ended up being disallowed. Odd. Figures (who may or may not have been at the game) reckons we had loads of clear cut chances. He's a fucking liar imo. My mate at the game said we played well. Honestly don't know who to believe.

Optimistic Nut Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 One game less to play, one point further ahead. One big step closer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Us, Brighton and Huddersfield all have home games against teams in the bottom 3 or near the bottom 3 next. No room to slip up really. Except in reality we have 2-3 games where we can slip up. Perhaps even more given the rate at which both Brighton and Huddersfield have been slipping up lately Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I said yesterday that I would settle for a point and it's turned out OK, some of our fans need to learn to relax. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 We can't really afford to slip up at home to the likes of Wigan when Huddersfield have a game in hand and we've tougher games coming up such as Sheffield Wednesday away and Leeds at home.

It would be good to win the next 2 at home, 2 weeks on the training pitch and a few days off for the players should help us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Just said on Sky that four years ago 78 points (our current total) was enough for automatic promotion. We're being chased hard and are top. Playing better would be very welcome but we're still very much on course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 We are making hard work of it but we should be humping our next two opponents into the ground with the players we have after a two week rest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Get in. Just saw Leeds result. Our result wasn't great but can't get too disappointed about drawing away from home. Regardless, after this set of fixtures we're a point better off than we were against both Brighton and Hudd. with increased goal difference gap with both and one less game left to have both of them take over us.

Kanji Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I think its perfectly acceptable to be annoyed that we didn't win today given Huddersfield and Brighton both lost. Frustrating, but gotta keep looking forward and hopefully we'll get the job done by winning matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 We are making hard work of it but we should be humping our next two opponents into the ground with the players we have after a two week rest We should. That is the worry. Also I remember reading a stat that we haven't won back to back home games for 4 years or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Every game that goes by with points added to our total is basically positive IMO, especially with the kind of lineup we put out today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 The expectancy is that we win every game and actually to a degree that is healthy. However, we needn't throw toys out the pram after today because actually we increased our lead at the top. As frustrating as we have been at times and despite having the 'best squad' and best manager and not getting the best results all the time, we're going up 100%.

Superior Acuña Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 You're averaging going fan who doesn't go to away games never saw us lose in this division last time. Think that we've lost more and drawn less, and that more of that's been at home, means fans are more unsettled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 We can't beat our points total from last promotion campaign now. Can only equal it on 102 for those interested in stats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
