Dan Robin Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 We threw away a great chance : these two points lost could make the difference in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bexhill reds Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Probably just a bit short in midfield today, just the game for Korey to get about and do his thing, especially with Wigan looking to break quickly through the middle. Patterson not at his best, does not seem to like it against stronger physical players. Could and should have won that in the 2nd half, a bit more composure at times and bit bit more fortune, then we could have any at least another 2. Can't fault the defending too much, balls lumped diagonally for knock-ons are not the easiest to deal with. The good thing is that we did not lose, and O'Leary will learn from games like these.

Redrascal2 Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 And that is why we won't make the playoffs. Consistently struggle at home and undo the fantastic results at Sheffield and Boro. Based on the inability to do anything about how we play at home. Then a result can against WBA looks well nigh impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSSEL85 Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 I went to the game and there crosses were dangerous all game and it was only a matter of time. I thought we had a 15 min spell in second half and that was it. Hard to say but they deserve the point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 3 minutes ago, RedSA said: Did well to get back into it and get in front but pretty naieve in playing out the rest of the game. We were still playing very open in the last 10 mins, should have tightened up and started on the old ‘game management’. Which is surprising as we've generally been good at it this season.

Spike Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 8 minutes ago, ChippenhamRed said: Come on gents. Who expected 7 points from the last 3 games. We’re right in the hunt and now’s the time to stay positive. I accept I didn't expect that but with the same logic we should be taking all 3 points from Wigan at home. It's all good and well taking trying to put a positive spin on things and yes we could have been out of the running but the point is we weren't, we were creating a gap with only a small number of games left and we let 2 crucial points slip. I'll be interested to see how people view this game if we fall 2 points shy of the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffolkcity Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Gutting to throw away the win, but I think after today, Preston, Forest, Boro and Wednesday all have pretty much thrown away their playoff chances. 4pts clear of 8th with a game in hand, it's starting to look like any two from three. Game in hand is huge too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Just dont know why we cant kill teams off at home. We've conceded a remarkably low amount of late goals to get away with it but we should have built on the 2 quick goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 At this stage of the season results are all over the place as relegation threatened teams have nothing to lose by going balls out and those in promotion places get nervous with the prize in view. Another game down , still in the top six . Who would have thought it ? This will go to the wire . We should be happy with seven points from nine since the break. Well done lads , onto Tuesday night and hopefully a win . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have conceded very few late on, so just have to take this one. Very disappointing having got ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downendcity Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Looking at things philosophically, how many of us expected us to take 7 points from Sheff U, Boro and Wigan, as I suspect many thought Wigan would be the only game we'd get anything from? Of course this only adds to the frustration of seeing 2 points lost at the death. Can LJ solve the enigma that is our home form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanburyRed Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Disappointing to concede so late but they're battling as are we. 7pts from 9 - we'd gave taken that from these 3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think we’re worse at it at home as we’re in a different mindset. We have a smash and grab mentality playing away and it comes more naturally if we’re winning. At home we seem to want to entertain for the fans more and go a bit gung ho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 when Leon Clarke came I got bad vibes. He scored against us last season both in Sheffield and on the Gate. he was the player who shot, rebound and goal. At the moment very disapointed when we go from 0-1 to 2-1 and then 2-2 last minute. we are still in a good position and will fight for top six: COYR!!!

Keith Welch Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Haven't looked at their fixtures but expect Villa to keep winning. Unless Boro get a bounce after inevitably sacking Pulis, it's starting to look like it's between us and Derby for the 6th spot - obviously our game against them is vital.

CityCiderEd Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Whether they deserved a draw or not, we got our noses in front after our usual slow start and let them back in. In our position we have to close the game out yet concede in injury time. I know our home form is poor but we were playing a team who have lost 15 away games. Not a disaster but not good either.
