Judda Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Gulp! 2 really tough games coming up. Hopefully get something out of them but we could be looking at 2 more losses as both are in amazing form. Just hope it doesn't knock the confidence of these great young players too much as we have so much to play for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As disappointing as yesterday was, you have to take into consideration not only the physical aspect of the Man City game but also the mental side. I’m hopefully with a full week off the players will be back to their best for the Derby game. Personally I think second is beyond us, but the pray offs is well within our grasp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Like i said in a different thread, i think we can get a result friday this team is better set up away from home. I wouldnt worry too much about Man City certainly no shame if we lose 2 games against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inactive user Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 I have a feeling we might surprise a few against Citeh. Take a point off the Rams and we get back in the groove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve shown we’re capable of stringing 4 or more back to back wins together this season, and it’s only 5 points from 2nd as things stand. I expect Derby, Villa and a few others to have mini blips before May, so no reason to say we’re out of it yet. As much as I’m enjoying this cup run, I’d give you my right hand for 3 points away at Derby and a 3-0 defeat to Man City in the 2nd leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t say things like that! At every club LJ has managed he’s lost at least 8 games in a row. Hopefully, because he’s done it once at City, it won’t happen again. The defeats, so far, aren’t too bad as only 3 have been in the league. Man City wasn’t a surprise and Watford was with a team of mainly inexperienced players. Most teams have a losing run at some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 It’s just a measure of how far we come this season that even if we do get to seven defeats on the trot we will still be in a play off place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedorDead BCFC Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 We destroyed Derby so I suspect they might be looking at this one nervously. I’m going for a 2-1 win with Matt Taylor making amends for that stupid miss last season getting the winner. Man City don’t like teams playing high line football. Liverpool seemed to have taken notice of our game against them. Get the first goal against them and it could be dreamland. I’m staying off this crack it’s makng me positive.

samo II Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Happily take a draw Friday. That would be four points off Derby this season; not many will get that. Also think our fixtures post-Man City at home are as favourable as we could hoped for; playing Bolton just after the window closes (and they potentially have lost their top scorer), and then having a seven day break before hosting a currently woeful Sunderland team will be a crucial re-grouping time for us, I think.

Wolf Island Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Watching Liverpool - Man City and have to think that Frankie would’ve saved both the goals. Great shot stopper is Frank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
