Lanterne Rouge Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 If you`re an Owls fan. They`re away at FGR on Sunday and at Cheltenham on Wednesday. It`s not often two away games fall like that for a club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been more than 20 years since a team had a chance to get two Bristol away league fixtures in in quick succession 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Lincoln City went to Chippenham Town and then us within a few days. And must be one of not many in the last 20 years to win at both Bristol clubs in the same season 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southend Blue Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 I was surprised they let in 4 in their last game at Barnsley. Strange as it seems I and some other Town fans actually wanted a Sheffield Wednesday win as I don't believe they're going to be displaced from the automatic promotion places in League One and Barnsley are right behind us with game/s in hand, it kind of made sense to wish for an Owls win. I believe Plymouth are the weak link of the top two, (and) if we're going to be promoted they're the ones to displace and grab the other automatic slot. Derby play Peterborough tomorrow, obviously hoping for a Posh victory. Rams are erratic and far from the best in the league but they're a promotion rival all the same. I do hope results go for us this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 Wonder if they wil be going after the FGR match? Dale could put them up in one of his eco hotels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plymouth’s crazy home form have kept them where they are, they do seem to get the run of the ball as well, wouldn’t be surprised to see them miss out completely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With only 8(?) games left now I fancy them to see it through. A lot depends on those two Owls games though - if they win them both (which they should) they`ll be four points clear of Argyle on the same games. Barnsley play at Exeter on Tuesday too and if they win that, they`ll be on the same points/games as Ipswich but with a lot worse GD. The FGR v Owls game is on Sky tomorrow - 1:00 kick off. I was half hoping Exeter v Barnsley would have been as well but it looks like it isn`t. Shaping up for a great finish to League 1 - I can`t recall such a tight season with so many huge clubs involved. I wouldn`t fancy it if we were there!

TV Tom Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 Plymouth run in doesn’t look too bad, 4 of the next 5 away though (including Barnsley) then finishing with three at home (including by far the biggest and bestest team in the division) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC there isn`t any love lost between the jailbird and Steven Schumacher either stemming back to their days on Merseyside so he would love it!

The new lad seems to have stepped up though and grabbed his chance. I though losing Morgan Whittaker would have hit them hard too but they seem to have coped pretty well without him.
