paulhanley Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Very characterful win. Exactly the character we didn't show when playing poorly early season. We are right in the mix now. A loss today would have been a real bodyblow for top three hopes but on we rumble. And the motley crew of lower league clubs around us will continue to be very worried about our progress. Brought a little memory of that 2-1 win v Northampton four years ago when we were losing 0-1 and playing poorly. Morais and Le Fondre I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't pretty today, but we're gonna take some stopping now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Feelgood Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 10 wins, 2 draws in 12. From 19th to 5th. We need a couple of teams to fold under the pressure. FGR could eadily be one of them. The old "winning despite not playing well" is proving to be correct. we need to start quicker & to have a Plan B but this is a strong & experienced squad now. I certainly didn't see this happening in January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregbwfc Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Dapo was absolutely right to make a meal of the incident. We've been on the wrong end of shithousery most of the fucking season. I'm sure none of us like it but that's football these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainmed Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Fortunate win in my opinion. Red was soft as was our penalty in my opinion. A wins a win anyway. Upwards and onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantra Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Yeah ours was definitely a penalty. Theirs could have been too, would need to see it again. Looked a clumsy challenge but he was certainly looking for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct and Walsall can fuck right off if they whine about it (and they will). All they did at their midden and today was throw themselves on the floor and cheat basically. Someone grabs your neck/throat they are asking to be sent off. Soft penalty yes but again no sympathy for them. Scutters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjhb Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I don't think we need to worry about Exeter/Salford/Crawley/Carlisle now. Newport lost 2 in a row and don't play the next two matchdays. It was any 3 of 8 a week or so again, now it's probably 3 of 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if there is any justice, we'll carry on getting things in our favour for the rest of the season. Refs were appalling until suddenly the efl had to start looking at red cards. Funny that.

Site Supporter desperado Posted March 20, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2021 Come on! We keep finding ways to win. Not at our best, rode our luck with some referee decisions that went our way. Doesn’t matter how the 3 points come. Big game against FG next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusan nikolic Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 A really huge 3 points that , and all without really without getting out of second gear . Next week is really massive now , win that one and we really are in the automatic mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mounts Kipper Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Poor Today, MOM the referee. Take the 3 points and move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrycowdrill Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 For fear of sounding like a broken record tempo of our play is massively important Last week and 1st half today shows if we’re slow we get dragged down to a pretty average level and we’re not good / clever enough to break teams down like that. at this level moving the ball quickly and not allowing them to drop in to a rigid shape gets results. it might be a bit of give and take over the better sides over the next couple of weeks but the Colchester’s / grimsbys of this world that’s how we’re going to get the points we need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesince63 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 It does matter how the 3 points come though, we won’t always be as lucky as today. Let’s hope Evatt and the result don’t try to gloss over how shite we were today, especially first half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
