Northern Red

Sounds like we did everything but score today. Happens to everyone now and again.

Can't argue with keeping a winning team.

They'll have earned that week off after Wembley.

Why?? What manager in their right mind 13 games from the end of the season and nearly across the finish line would change a winning line up?

One that's been playing 2 games a week for the past month with more to come?

I'm not complaining, far from it. It's a little bit surprising though I can of course see the reasons for it.

As per last week, I'm surprised by the lack of changes.

Get in!

Swindle 3-0

Little Lee is having a right good start up at Oakwell. Good lad.

We play them in a couple of weeks so let's hope it doesn't continue.

Doooooommmmm

Panic!

Anyone know the team?...

He is a wannabe manager me thinks.

Edited for accuracy.

Must not get giddy, must not get giddy....

Little bit surprised that he's only made 1 change, given that we supposedly looked a bit tired on Saturday. I guess he's having to plan it game by game with the amount we've got to play at the moment.

oooohhh he blames the pitch... no excuse he says but he blames it about 3 times,.... lorra larfs... bless him... oh theres 4 times,... oh and the officials were useless and colchester cheated... lorra larfs

Showing his usual graciousness in defeat I see...

The question would be why it took going 3-0 down and a probable half time bollocking to get them playing.

Balls

Swindon 2-1 down

If we get another then Colchester's collective arse will go.

0-3 against a shower of shit like Colchester I could accept in the past with the many godawful teams we've had but this group of players should have had this wrapped up by now. Not acceptable, even as a one off, but its not over yet. We still have enough in the tank to beat such a poor side.

WUM

There's clearly something very wrong for this sort of performance to happen.

Jesus wept

Little bit surprised that Saville isn't in the squad. Though with Wilbs back on the bench someone needed to make way.

Fielding, Little, Bryan, Ayling, Flint, Williams, K.Smith, Pack, Freeman, M.Smith, Agard.

subs: Richards, Cunningham, Tavernier, Elliott, Wagstaff, Emmanuel-Thomas, Wilbraham.

Man up you bunch of girls.

Same position as we were in 2 hours ago, 1 less game to go.

Get In!

I thought Cotts called it pretty spot on, we weren't particularly good tonight and perhaps Sunday took more out of them than people might think.

Had Gillingham scored a 2nd when they were on top from 30-60 mins then it could have got very nervy, as our intensity and rhythm had totally gone at that point.

The Smith injury stoppage was actually a blessing in disguise, as it gave us a few minutes to regroup and we looked a lot more comfortable after that and saw the game out with few alarms, if anything looking the far more likely side to score.
