finbarr_in_z Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Honestly. This place is absolutely amazing... Preston are the better team. We'll finish second. Swindon are only 15 points behind. Is this for real? Indeed. If someone had said at the start of the season that we could be garanteed going up in 2nd place, I'd have taken it without question. Quote Link to comment
Robin101 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I still think as long as we avoid defeat at Deepdale the title will probably be ours. If we lose at Preston then things may get interesting ! For Swindon to overturn a 15 point gap, even with 3 games in hand, would be remarkable given their fixtures. If we beat swindon on Tuesday then for me that's us promoted. Quote Link to comment
Esmond Million's Bung Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) Legitimate concern ?....jeez, it's only football, my concept of " legitimate concern" is a drug crazed large Afro Caribbean gentleman holding a gun to my head while he explains the virtues of man sex gently in my ear Yeah but all first dates don't always go well, you should know that.

Keepers Ball Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 So heres the scenario. After our below par performances against Barnsley and Oldham, we lose against Swindon on tuesday night? Are you all so confident against a rampant Preston? Quote Link to comment
I BELIEVE Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Oh my word, this place is in meltdown. If we avoid defeat in our next 2 we are practically promoted, chill out! 1 Quote Link to comment

Northern Red Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Piss poor performance and result for a team with ambitions of winning the league. Another point towards promotion but we are now opening the door for Preston to win the title. You're a shambles Quote Link to comment
Wanderingred Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Its like a load of kids not getting what they wanted for Christmas. We are 8 points clear and we could maintain that over the next 6 games, but some prefer to give in and hand it to PNE. Its like they are not used to winning and are more comfortable with losing. I think that sums up a lot of these posts perfectly. Those of us whinging that we are going to bottle it, why not get down the bookies and put your money where your mouth is? 1 Quote Link to comment

Aussie Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Ok get down the bookies then mate because you will get great odds on that right now...... I did last week. I think Preston will beat us up there and we'll drop points and finish 2nd. Quote Link to comment
And Its Smith Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Anyone listening to 'hopsey' on radio bristol? Very insightful stuff. I assume that is the Hopesy on here. Sounds even more stupid in real life than he does on here. Don't ring in if you've never even been to the game Hopesy. Quote Link to comment
ten minutes of rough Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 If PNE win at Bradford on Monday they will be still 5 points behind with the same games played (40), also we have a better GD than them (9) so effectively 6 points behind. If we can avoid defeat there we can win the title. Honestly though I am more concerned of finishing top two. Quote Link to comment
Aussie Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Unbeleiveable Jeff.....lets throw the towel in we'll be in a relegation dogfight next. You think the last 2 are good results? Quote Link to comment
And Its Smith Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 What's hopesy saying? It feels like a loss today (even though he wasn't there) and he is 'scared' we won't go up. Seriously. Quote Link to comment
Esmond Million's Bung Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 We have points in the bank, the other contenders have IF'S FFS. Quote Link to comment

cityexile Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) No one is panicking, but it is worthy of comment that are next three games are really tough! Today is done - move on. Swindon have a tough game tomorrow, lets see how the table looks after that. We are in a great position, but not quite there yet. Edited April 3, 2015 by cityexile 1 Quote Link to comment

Fordy62 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 You think the last 2 are good results? I'm not sure he's saying that... But if you look back to when we lost to Swindon and Preston on the bounce, that form across a 46 game season would see us ending up with 0 points. You get the point surely? Quote Link to comment
Northern Red Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Frustrating game. We didn't play that well but having worked hard to get the lead, to then concede such a soft goal was very disappointing. If we'd seen out that few minutes after scoring we'd have won comfortably. JET has to start ahead of Agard. I fear for the sanity of a few bedwetters on here if we lose to Swindon. Quote Link to comment
Dolmanmark1 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 One of prestons games is against Swindon they both can't get 3 points Quote Link to comment
bucksred Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 You think the last 2 are good results? against one of the form sides Barnsley and a freaky goal scored today...yep..ye cant legislate for wonder goals can you Quote Link to comment

Swindon have a tough game tomorrow, lets see how the table looks after that. We care in a great position, but not quite there yet. I think it would appear some ARE panicking. We are the best placed team in the whole football league (relative to divison). 1 Quote Link to comment
ten minutes of rough Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 You think the last 2 are good results? I don't believe this place, we have to play 11 v 11, nothing is a given, factor in Wembley and it is one weary bunch, we have been brilliant all season. Quote Link to comment
Fordy62 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I fear for the sanity of a few bedwetters on here if we lose to Swindon. Christ... Can you imagine? NB I'm gonna go fishing in 10 minutes... 2 Quote Link to comment
Port Said Red Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I did last week. I think Preston will beat us up there and we'll drop points and finish 2nd. Money down the drain. I guarantee it. Quote Link to comment
