That was the day after on my birthday(moved from my bday to the next day) which we drew. Ipswich away we were up and another late goal to steal points. Think it was the last time Luke Freeman scored and even that was generous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Certainly Sept 26, 2-2 v Ipswich. Previous points, 2-2 v Leeds, 1-0 v Middlesborough, 1-1 v Preston. 8th League game. 9th game was the 1-1 v MK, at which stage I knew we were in for a battle...

Roe Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 It's strange though isn't it, because most people would probably say we played better for the first 3 games last season (Sheffield Wednesday, Brentford and Leeds), in terms of gameplay, possession, excitement etc, the only problem being that our defence was all over the place and conceded 8 goals in those matches. Defence is massive though and let us down so much early on last season, whereas this season letting in only 2 goals in 2 games gives us a reasonable platform to build on. Also worth noting that while Wigan and Burton might not be the strongest teams in the league, they both scored 3 in their other matches. Our defence isn't perfect now (2 games into the season, it's unlikely to be), but it's looking so much more solid and determined to limit goals against.

If we can stop the other side scoring in batches of four, then Tammy and co ought to keep us in the points. (1 point is acceptable now and again......)

Aizoon Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 No. It's a disaster. Six easy (-ish) points and a Cup win. We'll get overconfident and blow it by Christmas. We're doomed, I tell ye, doomed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kermit the Frog Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Working on the basis of win your home games and draw your away games, our target for this month would be 11 points. We have banked six, and with the three relegated prem sides coming up if we win just one of those that puts us on 9 points. That would be a very good return from a very tough start to the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lows and then highs of that match were bi-polar in the extreme. Seriously concerned about our survival in SBC. Realisation that Cotterill was out of his depth.....then two desperately late City goals changed all that and I left AG buzzing.....unfortunately that "buzz" didn't last long.
