As shit as can be predicted. Very poor team selection. James and Williams should not play together against crap teams, nor should we be relying on Knight and Mehmeti for creativity

Looking forward to revisiting this thread after a disappointing 1-1 draw this afternoon.

This thread and others are utterly laughable.

Beating decent teams on the counter which we've done for the past three years is no evidence we can break down shit teams, which we haven't done for three years

The kit is bloody lush

Totally tinpot celebrating a random win though

Always want TGH to play against the teams that need breaking down

To compensate for this Berwick Rangers compete in the Scottish system. Berwick, is a town and civil parish in Northumberland, England, 2+1⁄2 mi (4 km) south of the Anglo-Scottish border.

Berwick would add nothing to the English leagues, whereas Cardiff, Swansea, Newport and Wrexham would add loads to the Welsh.

Don't think Wrexham would be so famous though

In all seriousness, weren't FGR interested in him as DOF just before his mega promotion here?

Why are you relying upon others to progress your argument? Please tell me the maximum amount of points each team can get considering lots all have to play each other? 

Not every team can get maximum points. Its impossible. I thought you would know that. If we win all of our games, West Brom, Sunderland, Norwich can't. So thats minus 3 from their maximum total. When they play each other then more points will be dropped. Basic maths mate

IN MY OPINION it is in our own hands. So it doesn't matter if you tell me its not, or if someone else does, my opinion doesn't change. 

Why are you trying to plant seeds? Very strange. Here's me being positive and you're trying to scold that and frame it as some agenda. Bizarre. 

You are free to go back and check my posting history where I said in the summer my expectations were top 10 with us having a chance of play offs in the final games. It would be rather bizarre for me to berate us for achieving my expectations don't you think? 

If you don't think we can get around 30 points, fair enough. However I do. 

Hey WSM, I am a big fan of most of your posts. You are barking up the wrong tree here though bud.

It's mathematically most definitely not in our hands.

To be fair, it’s the first time this season we’ve had a strong bench.
As such, our 5 subs can maintain the standard of our starting 11.

5 players make up 45.45% of the team so we can expect to do 45.45% better.

45.45% better than 1.375 points per game is 2 ppg.

2 ppg is 28 points.

So we are simply theorising that we outperform this by 2 points.

Drink the Kool Aid!

 

5 subs are on the pitch an average of 20 mins at best

So you'd need to divide 45.45% by 20 over 90

Yeah whoever that is has been asking some fairly thoughtful questions in a manner that is disarming. I like his style, hopefully someone can put a name to the voice.

OK since the 2015 promotion, the 6th placed teams in this division have achieved 2016 - 74pts, 2017 - 80pts, 2018 - 75 pts, 2019 - 74pts, 2020 - 70pts, 2021 - 77pts, 2022 - 75 pts and last season - 77pts.

Last season is definitely wrong. 4th didn't even get 77 points and 6th was 69 points

14/1

What odds you giving if we are 50 points from 34 games and 2 points behind 6th? 

I agree we need 27/28 points or similar and it's incredibly unlikely

We but have to play to win , forget the draws as they won't do anything for us coming from this far behind.

9 wins from 14 seems impossible. But taking a game or two at a time if just for once we win the next two games that we should on paper (QPR / Sheff Wed). 7 wins from 12 then looks something more achieveable if still very unlikely

Love the Southampton fan on their forum claiming Mehmeti was offside as it was 'only a deflection off Smallbone'

Imagine being offside from your own ******* pass , impressive

GD says the top 6 is exactly as it should be and in the right order too

Coventry are so very consistent,  it would take a gigantic effort of lots of wins and few drews to overhaul them 

Good set of results if we are in the play off race

How Preston are joint 6th with -8 GD is a bit of a mystery 

Don't get the hype on it

Clearly an OG

I can do a rabona and I'm overweight heading towards middle age

And without the deflection it was a massive waste on a good position and very selfish

You could argue on tonight’s performance and the players you and Shelts mentioned that you don’t need Twine / no10.

I honestly don’t think Twine could do what Knight did tonight with Conway in leading the press / block.

 

I agree with this against Southamptton and would always start Knight against better teams.

If you come back and say something similar against QPR, Sheff Wed etc etc , teams we should be creating chances against then we will most definitely be in the play off race. Won't hold my breath though.

Anyone know why that Anthony Evans is still playing at L1 level? Always got a goal in him from midfield and looked quality when I saw him 

Maybe one for

@Harry?

Wow what a performance,  fully deserved fairly easy win.

Shame about the soft pen at the end gave away the clean sheet.

Cornick is like the girl you never noticed and suddenly you fall in love with

BANGING

Hopefully we don't change the way we've played so far as they haven't been too much threat 

Cheers Smallbone

For @Davefevsbenefit that was a fantastic through ball from Knight. Need more of that from him
