mozo Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Watford, West Brom and Stoke are all at home on Tuesday, and I'd be surprised if any of them drop points.S****horpe may be lowly, but we have to go up North and do a professional job to take the points.With Palace at home - on Sky - to follow, we could do with an away win to get the momentum rolling.It was close the last few times we met Scunny, but have we moved on since then??

Alex_BCFC Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Our next two away games are S****horpe and Colchester. Both tough games but if we want top 2 we need 4 points I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both tough games but if we want top 2 we need 4 points I reckon.There's no doubting that we're a better team than both, but away games scare me at the moment! I certainly feel that we need four points minimum from the next two if we're to keep challenging at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Some good news:Boss Nigel Adkins confirmed his concerns about the injury which right-back Cliff Byrne sustained in the 0-0 draw at Sheffield United.The Irishman, who returned from an injury lay-off at the end of December after breaking his leg against Stoke City two months earlier, had to come off at half-time after getting hurt again in the same area.Speaking in his post-match press conference, which is now showing on Iron World, Adkins said: "He broke his leg against Stoke City, and he has taken a blow to his fibula - which is the non-weight bearing bone."He took a blow on it in the first half and it is a very tender area where the fracture was, and we have got a concern that there might be some more damage back in there."So, it is a major concern from our point of view because Cliff has been outstanding this season and - when he broke his leg against Stoke - that was the catalyst for the run of results that followed."He has come back and worked ever so hard, and has been superb."We are concerned at this moment of time that the fracture is there and it might have opened up again. So we will just have to see."Look at the run S****horpe had after this guy got injured last time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartolona Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Every game is massive from here on in. I'm sure all the top teams will lose game's they should win. The pressure will all be on WBA and Watford as they are expected to get promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Eamer Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Starting this block of ten with three points today was brilliant and we thought we'd be pushed a bit more than we were and played a very professional game to get the job done. The S****horpe and Colchester games although they don't look like very big games looking at the league table are massive and these are the types of games we need to be taking three points from whether home or away. If we were to get all nine points from those three and a point at Crystal Palace we'd be well on par to finally get past the 1.7ppg barrier for the first time in a block of ten.

Dave Youell Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Every game from now on gets more and more important, we need to treat every game like a cup final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 And thanks to an old boy Scunny will be without one of their new signings. From Guardian Unlimited;S****horpe's Grant McCann was sent off for a foul on David Cotterill after 10 minutes.Nice one Dave!And it's been confirmed that McCann will not be playing against us. From their offical site;His suspension will start when the Iron host Bristol City on Tuesday night.If this other fella is also out injured we'll need to really push them, as it is a key match for us.

Dolman_Stand Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 With their right-back out injured you would hope McIndoe will give the replacement the run around, the next four games offer a chance to go on a bit of a run especially if our home form continues. Should be looking at 10 points minimum before trciky games like Charlton away come round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
