voyeur Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Speaking as a Blackpool fan, a lot of our fans are getting excited about the possibility of auto, but it's still a long shot.We are five points behind with only 12 points to play for. Next week we play Northampton, who beat Scunny today, then cheltenham away, then S****horpe at home, then Swansea away. Winning all four is a tall order. We lost at Rotherham recently.Two wins should be enough for you guys.We will look back at the start of the season if we don't go up. 8 points from the first eleven games. Since then we've probably been the best side in the division. Beating us at our place was probably the key result for you guys. You caught us during a glut of games with FA Cup and stuff, when our form dipped and we lost 3 home games on the trot.I'm sure we stand a good chance in the play-offs. Hopefully Swansea won't make it, I reckon they would be dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for beating you being the key result, it may have been key to you but I can't see it was particularly key to us. Arguably, for different reasons, I'd suggest Northampton, Oldham, Orient or Doncaster (all away) were more seminal than the win at your place.You caught us during a glut of games too, so don't go blaming that old chestnut for your defeat. In case you didn't notice we were also in the FA Cup at the time. We just handled it better and beat you too.It'll be you or Oldham to win the play-offs. We won't be in them.

bartolona Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 How is drawing with Forest and Swansea choking ? they were always going to be close games. We were unlucky not to get anything out of the game today, it was just one of those days when the ball was not going to cross the line. I don't call that choking, i call it bad luck.

Bad luck does not come into it, its playing with at least one striker( jevons) who is not good enough and scared to get in where it hurts. A decent striker and we would be up by now.....FACT....

Portland Bill Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 So it's all Jevons fault again is it?He is still our top scorer, with a strike rate better than the guy at Yeovil who you rated so highly.Whatever you just keep following me round the board Obssesed with Stewart arent you You know i know and every City fan KNOWS that Jevons has been a total let down this season. He may have scored a couple more goals than Stewart but your mate at Yeovil has been playing in midfield. So all in all a good scoring record for a 34 year old playing his first season in that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portland Bill Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Funny that such a top striker (by your own opinion) is that good that they play him in midfield???Exactly, happens to a lot of top strikers when there experience is needed to help the younguns out. He fed Best for a couple of months, shame they couldnt have kept Jevons down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had beaten you in February we would now be on 74 points and you would be on 73. Which makes that win a key victory for you. Not too hard to follow surely?And if you took the first eleven games off we would be top. Hypothetical, but just pointing out that it was our start that knackered us for auto.I forgot you had a lot of games in February, fair do's. Our form dipped then and we lost 3 home games on the trot, partly due to players missing, but that's how it goes for everyone.I am sure you will do enough to finish second, but it will get interesting if you lose to Yeovil and we win. The play-offs are a lottery. I think swansea might even sneak in and win them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giles_23_bcfc Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Maybe Jennison is the answer, only thing is johnson wont answer the question why isn't he even on the bench?He has done before! He said, with JMW about 10 yards away from him, that he isnt experienced enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to be well up to date with all things Stewart, strange coming from someone who uses to profess to not really having any interest in Stewart .
