[Kenneth E End]

Mick Harford robbed of the MOTM award for the second month running.

 

[oakroader]

Good...
One more jinx avoided...

 

[Jamo]

Not sure how Harford or Stendel failed to win it but thank fcuk Jack Ross did

 

[BelizeHatter]

Well. Sunderland got 12 points. We got 10. Thats more.

Be happy Kenny. Theirs was from six games and ours from four. We actually stretched our lead on them over the seasons points per game versus similar quality opposition, when I was concerned theyd closed on us.

 

[Bottega Don]

Massive game for us tomorrow. We looked to have escaped a little bit but we've been dragged back into it due to some poor performances. Loss tomorrow and we are in trouble.

 

[joethegill]

Oxford and Bristol Rovers at home in the space of 4 days. 2 wins and we're nearly on the beach, 2 defeats and we're back in the sticky stuff. I'd predict 4 points from the 2, we're looking decent enough of late.

 

[Bosox]

Mick Harford robbed of the MOTM award for the second month running.

Agree, clearly should have been Harford this month.

Sunderland got 2 points per game, Luton got 2.5. Also of the four teams Luton played three of them are 4th, 6th and 8th in the February form table (despite not beating Luton which shows what great form they were in the rest of the month). It's a meaningless award but that is still a shocking decision.

 

[Jamo]

Cam McGeehan suspended for Stanley and Sunderland at home and Donny away. We appealed the charge but despite no complaints from any member of the opposition staff on the day and the player moving his leg to where Cam was landing, he's been found guilty of violent conduct and banned. Willing to bet if his name was Max Power he'd have been let off.

 

[LS Bantam]

Home to Peterborough, new manager bounce will give us a shock win...

 

[PUSBCCFC]

An absolute shocker from the ref at the Ricoh here tonight.

You won't have to worry when you get expelled from the league

It’s infuriating but to be honest I wouldn’t have it any other way. Every time we rise above this kind of bollocks and say a big fuck you to em all it’s even better than the last time. Just imagine their faces when we’re challenging for Europe in a few years. You fucking REDS!!!

An absolute shocker from the ref at the Ricoh here tonight.

I think we deserved to win tonight. We are better away than home.
Yes the ref was gash.

 

[BelizeHatter]

We seem to keep running into teams that a couple of months ago would have looked good fixtures, that are now bang on form teams.

Yet another tough one tomorrow away in Devon. Just gotta plug away and tick games off holding Sunderland and Barnsley at arms length.

We're close, theoretically, to having less games to go than points ahead, which is a huge advantage if we can get there. But. If results swing the other way we're right back with them both and thats far more ikely scenario tomorrow.

So lets hang tough and get amongst them. Was a bit of a rivalry from the Kinnear days so theyd love to turn us over. COYH

Yeah, game was killed at 10 men. After the equaliser I'm sure we'd have gone on to win.

Anyway, now the play offs are gone, time to step up the protests.

The playoffs are not over for you yet. If donny lose again you are still 5 points off on the same games.
We won’t make it - too many draws lately.

We're not consistent enough. We'd need to win 75% of our games and that won't happen.

How we all laughed at your pathetic attempt at humour.

 

[BelizeHatter]

I can only imagine Lamby is deep in a forgotten corner of somewhere like Broadmoor. A Warden once in a while takes pity on him and gives him his phone for some brief respite and entertainment; as he is so utterly sad for the depths of his madness.........And this is what he fucking does with it.

 

[ProfessorGreen]

Looking forward to the game today. 3rd vs 2nd in the form table.

Blackburn came here in a similar situation (both on good runs) last season and we turned them over 2-0.

Feeling positive about today but Luton are well up there for a reason. Will be a totally different fixture to the one earlier in the season for sure. Decent crowd in too.

 

[Kenneth E End]

For me, that first half was the best football we’ve played this system, but I can’t imagine Muff’s defending to be as incompetent as last time.

I’m nervous. As I say, something has to give at some stage from one of the top 3. We will have gone HALF A SEASON unbeaten if we avoid defeat today.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Busy 4 days for Luton coming up, not going to lie...

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Tough game today, Plymouth picked up some good form of late and the first of two pretty long away trips for us back to back. Had a a feeling all week that today is the day this incredible run comes to an end, it surely has to at some point and with the form Plymouth have hit it makes sense it will be here. Doubt they will be as appalling as they were here earlier in the season where the midfield in particular had seemingly no interest in tracking their full backs allowing us to make hay - here’s hoping though!

Hope we go with Lua Lua up top alongside Collins, been discussed as nauseum now but just think it’s a better fit for Collins now who has sort of taken the talismanic mantle from Hylton now.

A point here I’d be happy with and 4 from these 2 away trips would leave us well pretty well placed ahead of back to back home games. Defintely squeeky bum time now, one of Barnsley, Sunderland and ourselves is going to be massively unfortunate to miss out on the back of impressive seasons.

 

[K-Win]

We seem to keep running into teams that a couple of months ago would have looked good fixtures, that are now bang on form teams.

Chin up, Belize. I know things are pretty bleak at the moment. I'm sure you'll catch a break soon.

 

[Shrimpurh]

Rob Kiernan back after 18 months out today. A player who was set for a big career, career stalled at Rangers but players like Waghorn have come down from there and done well. Just hoping he doesn’t break down early

 

[K-Win]

Charlton away today. We've finally got some confidence back, but this is a tough one. Charlton deservedly beat us at Fratton before Christmas.

Normally I'd happily take a point but we need a win if we want to stay in touch of the autos.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Luton unchanged again; for me I'd have freshened it up a little bit.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

A must win game for us today given our next 3, having said that we’ve never beaten Wimbledon away

 

[Kenneth E End]

20 minutes in - just 1 goal in 11 matches in L1....

 

[Shrimpurh]

He’s only gone and scored get in buzzing for Kiernan
