bigbadbonkingbob Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 A) We rested a number of players, and some of those who did play are still working their way back from injury (e.g. Tyson)B) You scored your first while we were down to ten men, and your second before the returning defender had had a chance to clear his eyesC) You didn't beat us, it was a draw.So no, I don't think you can read too much into it. Anyway, by the time we play you again we'll have had a transfer window and time for the new signings to settle in, who do you think is going to be doing more strengthening in January? (Genuine question, I've no idea how much you've got to spend or who you've got lined up to sign.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezgimed Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 So having 11 men means clearly you could stop an 18 yard overhead kick.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbonkingbob Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 So having 11 men means clearly you could stop an 18 yard overhead kick..It means that without a central midfielder having to drop deep to replace the missing centre half, the ball probably wouldn't have got to Jevons in the first place.Congratulations on progressing and all that, but I'm answering the original question - no, there's no psychological advantage. In two games this season, you've lost and drawn with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you possibly be taken seriously in any discussion about a proper sport?you like alliteration especially with b, so in the seriousness stakes this makes you a limited contender.We should have had at least two penalties in the league game and would have had them were it not for a dodgey ref.You could not have lived with our penalty power as was seen last night.You must be truly worried about making it this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 It means that without a central midfielder having to drop deep to replace the missing centre half, the ball probably wouldn't have got to Jevons in the first place.A super strike, probably the best goal you will see at your place this season; hey Gumps are out of the Paint cup end of.Congratulations on progressing and all that, but I'm answering the original question - no, there's no psychological advantage. In two games this season, you've lost and drawn with us.We have actually now today got our full squad available the first time, for well, a very long time; our best player last season didnt play in any of the games against you and it aint over till its over;You are not a super unbeatable team; you lost a cup game against us; to hard a pill to swallow is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your leading scorer !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A scrappy draw against non league opposition and another game to play where players could pick up yellow cards or injuries.Perhaps its just as well that Forest won't make it to the JPT Final. After all the game will be on telly and Forest seem to get stage fright when the eyes of the nation are on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
