phillybuk Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 2 must win home games coming up Yep .... but correct me if i'm wrong but we haven't won at home since late august when we beat Cardiff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC_Mike Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 You can't have a must win away from home, sounds like they played well ref bottled two pens. So the fact we're in the shit even more before today's game, a point was good enough? No chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 FT THAT WILL DO!!!! I would agree but being as we've dropped down and are now 2 points behind both Wednesday and Barnsley I'd say it really won't do. When we're in this situation only wins will do, and a good few of them. Based on Ipswichs position in the table and ours it's a game we need to win. I can't honestly see us turning this around when we have two proven goalscorers and when we only play one up front we play neither. I've had enough this season, I'll be happy when the season finally ends and we go down as at least it'll be over and done with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aizoon Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 not really considering other results And precisely what influence do we have over other results?

City1970 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Really? Far from good enough IMO.. Good point for City. Its the home form that is not good enough IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'd been offered that result before the game I'd have bitten their hands off. Yes, ok I see where you are coming from. What I'm saying is we haven't won at home for a while so we really need to start winning games because if we lose boxing day and those around us win we will start to get cut off. If we get some decent results at home, then the point will be worth - if not then we are back where we started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I'm just saying statistically it's more difficult to win away, home form is more important. I think our next home games are probably must win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderArmyy Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 2nd from bottom.. not good enough. a draw against a fellow struggling team is nothing to shout about. Opinion still hasn't changed, mciness out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say I was happy with the position. I said I was happy with the result. And I am. I was certain we'd be stuffed. I'm exceedingly grateful for the point. One game at a time, OK.

Bazooka Joe Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 I thought we were bound to lose when I saw Salako reporting on our game for Sky Sports. He's a real Jonah! We always seem to lose whenever he's reporting from a City game. I can't belleve we scraped a point today, Maybe we've finally broken this jinx; and if so, maybe we'll escape relegation.

I'm exceedingly grateful for the point. One game at a time, OK. Fair enough ...... if we beat Watford on Boxing day (that's a big if) then the point could be helpful but at the moment we now have to win on Wednesday and hope those around us don't - meaning it's not in our own hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Jim Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 A point at Ipswich is a good result but it'll be no good if (or when) we lose at home to Watford on Boxing Day. Our home form will be the thing that sees us relegated, it simply has to change or we will go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 I didn't say I was happy with the position. I said I was happy with the result. And I am. I was certain we'd be stuffed. I'm exceedingly grateful for the point. One game at a time, OK. Quite so. We can't do anything about how others are playing - only how we are. If McInnes had shown a bit more aggressive intent, who knows, we'd have probably taken this game and kept above the drop zone. Stead can work as hard as he likes, if he can't convert chances he shouldn't be leading our line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Away form now fine. We usually lose at Ipswich so despite other results, it is a reasonable point. However we must beat Peterborough and hopefully take at least a point off Watford. If the home form doesn't pick up from now on, we could be cut off as everyone is picking up points at the bottom.

Nogbad the Bad Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Good point, but just as important what sounds like a good solid team performance with plenty of chances created by a determined and organised City team.. We seemingly outplayed Ipswich on their own turf and were never in real danger of losing. You can't ask for much more than that. - quite encouraging I reckon.

Alex_BCFC Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 I think Nogbad is right to be positive. It is now down to the players sorting out the home form as to whether we can get out of this I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Don't see how people can be too disappointed, everyone would have took an away draw against one of our rivals who have been in decent form. We can't affect other results and any point away from home in our position is a good point. It's our home form that needs to be drastically improved and atleast 4 points in our next 2 home games and this result will be seen as a good point. Was anyone EXPECTING an away win today?!?!

Garland-sweden Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Dont think we have won in Ipswich since 1978 so 1point is good Imo. If we should avoid relegation we have to win home as all of us says. We have all teams at home who are fighting in the zone. Posh, SW, Barnsley, Ipswich, Birmingham and even Hudds. Dont know their score today. We have it in our owns hands, we can not relay in other results. Think we will make it. As I understand Mcmanus was very good and think Cunningham and Skuse make the team better. COYR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 It's one point more than the vast majority of us thought we'd get, perspective! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
