I get people’s frustrations, but we are 2 points behind derby not 22, if we are still at least 2 behind when we play them then it’s still in our hands. I couldn’t think of a better scenario than that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is some of the blame going to be aimed at out front line? The final third of our game is shocking Our defence didn’t give Coleman much protection second half, they were all over the place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just don’t win games like this. Edited March 9 by captainmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusan nikolic Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 3 minutes ago, Spider said: It’s a poor result Without our main keeper and main striker, we’re always going to be less of a force though and at this stage of the season that is critical. But it’s a run in for promotion and derby have shown they are as inconsistent as we are, and Barnsley now seem to be hitting a bad patch. Perspective is needed. But that does require a level of intelligence that people with knackered exclamation mark buttons don’t have! Derby definitely have a habit of dropping in odd defeats at home , but we have an habit of playing shit there , so who knows . The worry for me is if they get on top for a spell then we don't capitulate . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radcliffe white Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Personally we need to win 7 from the last 9 just can’t see it, conceding too many goals unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuesday ended up not quite as anticipated (we got a point more than I'd expected), today definitely not (two less than expected), so not sure I'd bank on anything with us just at the moment.

Oh and keeper out. We've had a bad season injury wise. The fact we currently have 8 players out sums it up (baxter, johnston, Taylor, Dan n, Charles, gomes, Victor, carty Personally I don't think we will get promoted, I wouldn't fancy playoffs atm either.

I can’t remember any really bad tackles so is it down to training? obviously recently could be work load amount of games and I know but they have blamed lostock pitches but are Exeter ect facilities any better ?

ph31 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Awful 2nd half. Going to be some twists and turns yet, everyone will be dropping points in the run in that's just the nature of league 1. Just look at Barnsleys week to make you feel better about ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not the only ones dropping points. No but we're dropping a lot more than Derby and Pompey according to the form table Anyway IF We can win Tuesday and not lose next weekend we then get a weekend off and hopefully by the time we play again we have Charles and Baxter back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 1 hour ago, Farnywhite said: We have played probably 5 or 6 games more than anyone else this year probably took affect with the amount of injuries with it being Jan and feb . May be only positive will be if it goes to play offs we will have s few back we seem to have at least 5 out all season at one time or another. Luck will hopefully change when it counts at the tail end I hope you're right but from where I'm looking most games we get an injury, or sending off/suspsension, so by the time the play offs come round we might be looking back at this time with envy! Seriously, no guarantee whatsoever things won't get worse before they get better, especially with 2 games a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
