Moderators Zico Posted January 14 Moderators Posted January 14 First game since Wigan Can't wait Quote
Bertie Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Another 90 minutes of predictable depressing purgatory …… but can’t not be there. It’s our club. My new bar for walking out the ground is when we go 3 down, so my excitement comes from wondering whether I get to see the full game these days. Quote
L/H White Posted January 14 Posted January 14 lads I sit with have chucked the towel in, I've drafted the missus in on one of their tickets Quote

wakey Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Imagine if we get Cambridge-fan pressure and scoreboard pressure in the same game. We'll be fucked. Quote
ianofcleveleys Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Will trundle over for this, should be fun 🙄 largely on basis the following two Tuesday homes are a real pain in the arse and one will have to be missed. Constant rejigging of games to Tuesdays due to international breaks, clashes with cup rounds, postponements, knackers me up with my coaching commitments, can't keep messing my athletes about for it, even though I shelled out for a ST in Feb Quote
BOWTUN BAKED Posted January 14 Posted January 14 If we don't get an early goal I can't be arsed with the toxic atmosphere that they'll be. Think I'll watch the first half with a pint on the concourse then decide whether it's worth taking my seat for the 2nd half! Quote

But we've got away with it a bit so far, Charlton will be our 2nd night match of the season, last season we'd had 2 by 3rd October. Quote
1969 Posted January 14 Posted January 14 In but not looking forward to it at all Start slowly and fans will lose what little patient's (if any) they have left Quote

True, it's felt like more because of the cup games (albeit didn't make them a priority). I'm not as bad if they come pre Christmas, quieter time for me, a glut of them in Jan-Mar is bad, clashes with the indoor competition season. Anyway, not all about me, as they say 🤣 Quote

Even the doctors and nurses will leave them at home won’t they ? 😘😂 Quote

Johnnyrotten Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Is anyone suggesting we keep the same team that beat Lincoln? "Don't change a winning team" and all that. I've never gone along with it, but plenty do. Quote

I've never gone along with it, but plenty do. “We’d like to be in the position where we’re not responding but this group always do and I thought it was a really good away performance. We had a large amount of control, I don’t think other than the set plays and the direct play they didn’t really cause us many problems and I don’t know how many saves Luke (Southwood) really had to make. “The goal was actually really good play and that’s why we play the way we do – we draw them under the ball and once we do create that space get in behind them quick, and Aaron Collins is a man on form at the moment. “I asked the players to come out and show our DNA, what we have created. All of the players we signed with the exception of George Thomason, who we inherited but have developed, have all signed here because of the way we play. I wanted them to go out there and show that and I thought they did tonight.” Same 11 then Saturday 😂 Quote

Glorified training exercise. And claiming Collins is on form, well that's what you'd expect him to say, how about saying he wants more from him in league games? Quote
deeane Koontz Posted January 14 Posted January 14 23rd in the league this lot. It should be a convincing win... Quote

I’ll probably get pelters for this, but I get why he spoke like he did. Don’t get me wrong, it’s full of holes and contradictions, but I’m not sure what else he can say in his position. To come out with any criticisms or “realisms” (as we see them) after what he said on Saturday would be counter productive to what him and the players are trying to do. He had to go on a charm offensive with the players, talk positively about what they did, how they played, in the (forlorn) hope that these wins provide some belief and confidence. I don’t have time to find and quote your other posts. But I thought you made some really valid comments about previous target men we’ve had (even the poorer likes of Wilbraham and O’Grady) and how Inferior they make all our current tribe look at holding the ball up. It’s embarrassing how little the ball sticks if we play a longer ball forward. Quote
