nufcjb Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Really hope we can get away from Huddersfield with these 2 home games. Would rather have a guaranteed lead over them than having games in hand like they'll have after this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 WWLD from the next four will see us up imo. Really vital we win tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Results like tonight will hopefully start to get to Huddersfield and Reading like. No matter what they do to try and stay in touch with us, we keep that sort of gap where they need to string a couple of wins on the spin with us losing back to back games just to stay in it.

Ronaldo Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We've won 22 so far; another 8 will see us up. Looking good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see this at all. Huddersfield are playing well at the moment, if they keep doing that then they will keep on winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Reading are effectively 10 points back having played the same games, it's only Huddersfield that could spoil the party for us or Brighton now IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye completely agree, don't think it will happen either. They have had a great season regardless, wouldn't be against seeing them come up through the playoffs.

Klaus Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We have only played really well in a handful of games and we are still top of this dog shit league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I do wonder how many games we played well in last time round. I reckon there are probably quite a few shite matches that get glossed over by the passage of time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 It's 3 into 2 now. Win the next one and we can get away with 1 or maybe 2 defeats in that away streak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I do wonder how many games we played well in last time round. I reckon there are probably quite a few shite matches that get glossed over by the passage of time. There were loads. Key thing though is that we really got into our stride in the final third of the season, playing better and boosted by the new signings. Unbeaten in the last 16 matches, winning 13 and scoring loads of goals. That's what everyone remembers most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I do wonder how many games we played well in last time round. I reckon there are probably quite a few s**** matches that get glossed over by the passage of time. I seem to recall lots of close wins, late scoring 1-0s to be honest. Pancrate vs Watford for that 1-0 was the epitomy of that season for me. Lots of clogg and a moment of class, reminds of this season mostly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We blew everyone away. Even in the first half of the season, which was less convincing than the second, just about every other win was by a couple of goals.

Could happen again I suppose, you could see tonight the difference a little bit of confidence does to a team. The question mark is probably over the strikers with Gayle limping off. Last time round we had Carroll on fire, and even Lovenkrands and Shola were too much for the championship defences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could easily end up similar to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think I'm remembering (unfortuantely) the first half of the season a lot more, it seemed far from a certainty we'd go up. Then Carroll and Nolan seemed to click into gear and there was no way we'd not go up. I kinda switched off from that point and slunk into happy complacency Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Aye it was never in doubt. Routledge down one side, Jonas/Enrique down the other; Colo, Nolan and Carroll down the spine - plus Lovenkrands who was a decent finisher. Smashed it. Nolan was right this evening, like; that side was loads better - even in spite of the statistics. More balance, more threat, and imo more mental strength.

Klaus Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Mental strength was the key for us last time, had several leaders and big personalities in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Hopped over to Wiki to re-educate myself - http://i66.tinypic.com/2m49dn5.png Can't argue with the results, especially second half of the season there. No idea why all the 1-0s and 2-1s imprinted on me so much. Born masochist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that can be borne out by how well basically the same side did the following season in the premier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
