REDOXO Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Well. We hope two defeats does not get in anyone's head. Players, management and supporters. Birmingham is now a very big game, even bigger than it was...I hope for 25k on Tuesday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelksRed Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Two good teams made good the chances they had. We have not been disappointing in these games.....we've looked a little scrappy at times.....in the last two games we've failed to win the second ball and have been punished for it. Still heavily reliant on going up the left... But have played some really good football..... I think that we will wobble.....but hope that we can bounce back against Brum on Tues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_BCFC Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 I think we’ve actually played much better last 2 games than we have in many of games in the unbeaten run - just quality of opposition has been much higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 We will beat Birmingham quite comfortably (in terms of performance more than scoreline). 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there is a single game we can take lightly now, every game will continue to be more and more important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLRed Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 As confident as I am in the squad this year, I feared wolves would be the turning point like last year as eventually, the winning run had to stop and low and behold, it is happening. I hope LJ doesn't let the rot set in. Don't think he will help his cause playing people like Watkins who have barely featured over inform players like eliasson but in LJ we trust? suprised given how well we have been defensively that we concede 3 today. Slight concern with Birmingham on Tuesday as che Adams is on fire and they are on form. It is a must win on Tuesday IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear in mind Brum have another motivation - if, and it’s a big IF, the EFL chose to deduct points from them regarding FFP breaches, they could be looking over their shoulder at the possibility of a relegation battle.

Bristol Rob Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Well he will have to turn it around with a prawn sandwich in his hand.

General Zod Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 It’s a must not lose game in my book if we are to be serious playoff contenders. No need to panic, we’ve not played bad the last 2 games but need to get back to business as usual ASAP. Just play the players who got us into such a great position. Eliasson not Watkins from the bench and Pisano not Bailey Wright at right back. Nows not the time to over complicate things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Pisano's fit I can't see how Wright would ever be the choice..laughable. Lee should forgot the "Club Captain" bollocks & pick the better player.

Wrongagain Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 The worrying thing is that LJ killed off any hope of turning yesterday’s game with his crazy tinkering - we all know what happened the last time he went off on one! Hopefully he will see sense and won’t make the same mistake again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivorguy Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 This thread would never have started if we hadn't seen such dreadful runs under LJ, including the worst ever in our history. It is going to take at least two/three seasons of relative success for many fans not to get anxious, even after only a two defeat run, and one of those against a Prem side and the other against a side which in all likelihood will be promoted at season's end Hopefully LJ has learnt his lesson and will kill off any talk of collapse with a fine victory Tuesday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While some will see this as alarmist , it is true. I really hope that , because we have broken so many hoodoo's this season , that we can pick up a win Tuesday just to get those thoughts out of peoples minds , and more importantly the players minds. A good performance, and a win, will set us up for another tough game Saturday. Which will lead us on to the next tough game , etc, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 We lost to a top end Premier league side narrowly and scared the hell out of them then lost, narrowly, to a side that will be in the Prem next season away from home and were probably a tad unfortunate not to take a point. No panic here. FWIW, I reckon we could possibly face defeat again next Saturday as PNE are absolutely flying. We're a good side though as proven in the last 2 games. We'll be alright.

They really didn’t. Preston’s keeper had a great game and Norwich (like they did yesterday) had 23 shots. But I’d take a point for sure as they are on good form and we never beat them.

Ledson is most likely to slot in for Pearson in the holding role, I think there's a chance Johnson will come in as well though for somebody else because as you say, he always seems to be quality against Bristol City. Could be a very big game next week but less so if you win one of your games in hand on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
