Kingswoodactor Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Really annoyed we didn't play Boro the other week like we were meant to. Pretty sure we would have taken 3 points of them, as they really do look in a right slump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up The City! Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Nice one Ipswich. Couldn't see anything but a Derby victory so well chuffed with that. Fair play to Brentford too. Puts a considerable gap between us and Villa which is crazy considering the money they have spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any result from the Shef/Boro game can work for us. I wouldn't mind a Leeds win so much that they potentially kill off Swansea a bit more, would be 9 points behind us having played a game more. Hopefully Brentford get one over Smith and do the same to Villa. Preston hopefully can get something from Norwich as well. Can you give me Fridays Euro millions numbers mate?

Lanterne Rouge Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Nelson Oliveira scored for Reading - how is he even back playing so soon after being done by Mings? What a warrior! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerseybean Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Our midweek points return against those around us in the table Leeds 0 Norwich 3 Sheffield Utd 0 WBA 2 Boro 3 Derby 2 Birmingham 3 Forest 2 Villa 3 Pretty satisfying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidercity1987 Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Might have preferred a Boro equaliser but do you prioritise 7th dropping points in the race for play offs, or 3rd dropping points in the race for automatics. Ah life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roe Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Lovely results tonight. 7 points (plus a game in hand) clear of all the outsiders below Derby, and only 5, 7 and 8 points off the top 3 having played a game less than them. Still a long way to go but another good night for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite remarkable that of the top 10 as the table now stands following the midweek fixtures, only 3 teams got the win and i am just delighted that one of those 3 was us!

Pretty sure we would have taken 3 points of them, as they really do look in a right slump. I keep thinking they are in bad form, but not really, Last two results beating WBA and drawing v Leeds. Also already played Derby and now Sheff Utd twice, so only us and Norwich left from the top seven. First defeat in the league this year. I think my perception was based on some bad December results and losing to Newport. They will be as difficult as anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always seems this time of the season teams at the bottom start pulling out results as well...bottom 4 got two wins and two draws midweek. No easy games.

Yes their wins at Birmingham and WBA were impressive, good draw v Leeds too (though so late 2 points dropped) but...focusing purely on the League. In their last 13, won 4, drawn 5 and lost 4. Put another way, the day we lost at Leeds they were 12 points above us...now we're 2 above them! More midtable form since November rather than anything disastrous- but still on a downward trajectory.

Nathandao Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Nelson Oliviera scores to put Reading in front again. What a brave fella. Playing again already after that horrific facial injury against Villa the weekend before last. Apparently a good goal too. Given that a load of my mates support Reading, and give me stick for supporting City, i hate it when they win, but for once, a good result for us means I'm glad they won it.

Flinty off with a hamstring and Ayala getting a red card might temporarily dent their miserly defence - hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwich go to Bolton before we play them though...so that gap would be 4 points most likely however we would have a game in hand and the momentum would be in our favour.

cidercity1987 Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 You gotta think theres already about 10 teams just playing the season out. QPR in 18th up to 9th/10th are going nowhere this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Good Weekend and midweek set of results all told. When you get 6 points, chances are you’re gonna gain points on some teams. I’ve got no idea how it’s gonna play out. In some ways there’s the positive of winning last night (and coming from behind) when not playing well, then you look at whether it has taken a fair bit out of the players physically and mentally. I guess all the teams are having similar emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
