BLRed Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 A team destined for promotion would have taken this opportunity tonight. That's our problem is we **** it up when we get in a positive position. Instead of going second, likely to drop to fourth and allow chasing teams to catch up Quote Link to comment
Roadrunner Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Putting Flint up front at half time smacks of desperation.Why did he not try Woodrow, Ellasson or Leko and leave Flint at the back. 2 Quote Link to comment
hoxton casual Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 why was Magnussson subbed for Kelly?! Just joined. Kelly looks terrified. Quote Link to comment
Phileas Fogg Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 1 minute ago, CotswoldRed said: Agreed. We've been struggling enough in patches to suggest we've ridden our luck a lot. Don’t think that’s true. Compare that to 07/08 when we really did ride our luck (in addition to the hard work and team spirit of that squad). This season I believe we are where we are on pure merit. We’re a good side, but injuries and a fixture pileup have led to two defeats. Villa and Wolves are the two biggest spenders in the league - I’m not too worried. We’ll bounce back. 2 Quote Link to comment

Lympsham Red Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 This one's gone. Draw a line under it. Stick out the under-23s against Watford - 11 changes, tell them to shock the world, nothing to lose. Rest all of our starting players. That'll give 'em eight days until the Man City game. Go from there, recharge, reboot, and knock the shit out of Norwich, Derby. These things happen. It's only two losses in a row. Give 'em all a rest and let's go again, maybe even build a run. A boy can dream, at least. 5 Quote Link to comment
longyears Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Reality check but we would all have loved where we are on NYD at the seasons start. Just get real and hope for the PO but forget auto as just a dream with our midfield ! Quote Link to comment
petehinton Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Worst bit of this is seeing Flint having to chase loose balls & close down their keeper. Sad to watch Quote Link to comment

Sorry but in no way can I be positive we will be beaten by fatigue and is no reflection on our season to date. Is it bad etiquette to qoute your own post ? I hope the bed wetters on here realise that we are running on empty 3 Quote Link to comment
