Site Supporter FrancisFogarty Posted March 11 Site Supporter Share Posted March 11 (edited) 36 minutes ago, Ani said: You are right in some ways but Coleman has played 9 games in at least 4 of those - Northampton, Wycombe, Blackpool and Exeter has come flying off the line and ended up in no man's land. Having a keeper that does that affects the defence. Exactly. Rewind to Billy Crellin being replaced by Matt Gilks for the effect on the defence. Coleman has had some decent games though and made some crucial saves. Edited March 11 by FrancisFogarty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams is quick can score the odd goal and take a throw in but defending he’s poor he looks frightened to put a foot in as for Ogbeta not seen enough of him but what I have seen his final pass isn’t the best. Ashworth is the best of a poor bunch at least he can tackle and scores the odd goal and his final ball is better than the others! That's better Rizlar. No ridiculous declarations or over-reactions, just rational opinions. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 7 hours ago, Whitestar said: Would reaching the play off final be seen as progress? I would say beating a Barnsley or Peterboro over 2 legs would be seen as progress. But the thought of losing at Wembley in a play off final - I'll settle for no progress thanks 😀 I think a nightmare scenario play-off wise is playing Stevenage, and losing. That would be a backward step. It would still be a semi final defeat like last year but would have to be seen as going backwards (I'm being sizeist but it would be slightly embarrassing). For that reason I hope we avoid them because there would be a big pressure/expectation on us to win; Barnsley could be argued to be favourites if we played them. All the above is just in case we don't get top 2 BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainmed Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) Technically progress is finishing above last seasons 5th. That was progress last season, but finishing 3rd or 4th this time wont seem like it. Edited March 11 by captainmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ani Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 If we do not get promoted given the opposition and the position we were in pre Blackpool and Wigan week it will have been an incredibly disappointing season. Especially with spending £700k on one player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderlust Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 All this talk of the playoffs when our form is 16th in the table over the last ten games - and just 5 points from the last 15 available. That's lose our playoff spot form. It's simple. Improve or be part of the biggest collapse in our history. Improve a lot and we could make the autos. But right now we can't bank on anything.

Whitestar Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Oh i don't know?, if only we could capture the spirit of 92/3 season, we would probably have been happy with the play offs then but managed to get over the line and went on to a fantastic 20 years and built up the fan base to what it had not been since the 70s, things do sometimes suprise you!!!

Wanderlust Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) 10 hours ago, Casino said: 9 points, 1 ppg, gives 80 points Thats a play off spot Only if we don't lose to Oxford tonight as that would put them just 8 points behind us - although TBF them getting 17 points from the last 24 to edge us out on GD is a big ask - but they won't lack motivation. The other three currently in the playoffs all have a game in hand on us. In that respect, tonight's game could all but ensure a playoff spot for us if we win. But you're missing the point I was making i.e. we have to improve on our current form regardless whether it's for securing a playoff spot, making a bid for the autos or having some momentum coming into the playoffs - because our current form is pants. And the second point was that whilst our form is pants, it's impossible to be confident we'll win - hope. yes - but not confident.

That said. 9 big ones left. Have to look forward. Play like we did in first half this sat for more than 45 mins and we win. Huge week where we could be 5 clear of Derby or 7 behind. This is what football is all about for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
