Aizoon Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Is so much nicer after a Saturday win Of course, there's always the OTIB bitching to bring us back to earth. The sound of axes being ground is quite deafening But hey! COME ON YOU REDS!! COME ON OUR STEVE!!! GIVE US A "C" GIVE US AN "O" GIVE US A "T" er... What's next?

Swindon8er Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I can't get excited over yesterday, if we play well Tuesday even if we only draw I'll then believe we can stay up. 2 goals in 2 minutes covered over a dreadful performance and without 2 goals in 2 minutes from Marv, we'd all be looking for directions to Accrington Stanley today.

Aizoon Posted February 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I wasn't there and won't be until my cast is off, which will hopefully be next week. From the commentary and from what I've read here, SC got the starting line-up wrong, but changed it early enough to make a difference. That in itself is a huge advance on our recent managers, who've tended to wait until the last ten minutes. I'm reminded of Andy Capp, who refused to sit on the bench on the grounds that "the substitute is the one they bring on at the end to share the blame" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoldenBall Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Very strange feeling yesterday, although we won a massive game our performance doesn't give me much confidence going forward That first half was bad it actually beggared belief professional footballers could play that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Yes, yes! Life is good:- Wake up on a Sunday morning (instead of dying during the night), get up, 70 press-ups, kick the cat into the garden, nice hot pot of coffee, and ............... ........... a frying pan full of hedgehog sausages.

Calculus Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I can't get excited over yesterday, if we play well Tuesday even if we only draw I'll then believe we can stay up. 2 goals in 2 minutes covered over a dreadful performance and without 2 goals in 2 minutes from Marv, we'd all be looking for directions to Accrington Stanley today. Indeed. Yesterday wasn't the best ever spectacle, but to be fair the conditions were horrible: strong swirling wind, freezing(ish) rain, slippery surface. Same for both sides but then Carlisle didn't play well either. Ball players like Wade Elliott and Bobby Reid were always going to struggle. Other than the three points we should also say that the manager made the right changes in good time and that the lads carried a bigger goal threat throughout, defended well in the second half and never gave up. Glass half full, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aizoon Posted February 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 And without that goal by Hull in just a second we would have been in the Prem. Odd way of looking at things.

Kibs Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 And we are out of the relegation zone for the first time in how long? We have performed much better and lost but we found a way to win. Despite how poor it was, the only time Carlisle really got in was from Williams shite pass. We troubled ourselves more than they troubled us. Coventry will be a different game altogether, they will open up and attack alot more I suspect which may suit us. We, as a club have not been able to win when not playing well for far too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downendcity Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Not a shepherd's pie, then? Not unless it's made with lamb mince. P.S Cottage or lamb pie has to be served with baked beans. This thread has turned in Sunday Kitchen. Reading some of the posts from the first half yesterday, perhaps the dish of the day for many should be humble pie with a sour sauce.

Agree with all that, but we have a great opportunity to put clear red water between us and the drop zone pack on Tuesday.

They don't understand why we are where we are. Some interesting comments about one of two of our guys as well. I firmly believe now that setting up to win every game we play from now in is the right thing to do We will lose a few, but as yesterday proved, we will win some games as well If we win a third of our remaining fixtures and lose the others, we would still have 45 points Not quite enough, but it sort of proves my point that we simply cant carry on drawing games at the rate we have been so far this season and we have to throw some caution to the wind, especially at home. Peterboro are a great example, they either win or lose, but look where they are in the table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face it you can't do better than win but please bear in mind it was against a club that didn't have enough players to fill their subs bench.
