[mowgli]

can see us struggling against Wycombe.

Hardly any team struggles against us mate especially at Adams Park for some reason,going for a 2-2 draw myself.

 

[Wibbin]

Looking forward to our game this afternoon vs The Mackems. Sold out away end, big crowd, all points to an away win.

We’re missing a few very important players and our defending is horrific anyway. Akinfenwa will have a field day.

You haven't witnessed ours yet .
Midfielder Matt Bloomfield out injured is a bugger but the front 3 of Fred Onyedinma,Craig Mackail-Smith and The Beast looks good with 3 more strikers on the bench if things are going badly.

Currently 2 up at doncaster, can we play away every week please

Speculative shot from 35 yards and our keeper was asleep then Anderson sold himself and let Eaves run through and score, other than kick the crap out of us that’s all you’ve done. We are so wasteful in front of goal could easily be up but that’s the difference you’ve been clinical we haven’t

 

[Jamo]

There will be goals for sure. We’re pretty threatening going forward but can’t defend for shit, against one of the better attacking sides in the division.

Unfortunately our pathetic attempts at defending and goalkeeping will be our downfall.

2-4 is my prediction.

You've defended very well so far and deserve to lead. We've had lots of the ball but not done anything with it. Sigh.

 

[Bottega Don]

Absolute shock we throw away a 2-0 lead, will lose this now of course

[Cas]

lololol. League 2 here we come.

 

[Bottega Don]

We are doomed

 

[Jamo]

Absolutely garbage from us today. No-one can come away with much credit.

Well done to Charlton, defended really well and took their chances. I really am the opposition's charm this season, we've been gash 3 out the 4 games I've attended.

 

[LondonOrn]

Amazing start by Accrington, can they keep it up?

See you in November

We should have but we aren’t clinical

 

[BelizeHatter]

Best display of season today. Comfortable and could have been more. Glenn Rea excellent and deserves credit as I've questioned his play at times. Only slight down is Potts injury who will be out for a few weeks but JJ will come in.

 

[thewwfc]

crazy, crazy game, wasn't there but to go from 2-0 down to winning 3-2 and having your goalie sent off...wow.

 

[mowgli]

What a f*cking brilliant comeback that was! A 3-2 win after our keeper was sent off as well as us being 2-0 down after 7 minutes means a few beers later!

Stop going please.

 

[Kenneth E End]

17 points from 7 home games. That is some going. Those play offs are starting to tease us; and it seems we are getting better and better as a side.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Garbage, obviously. Nothing more to add.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Comfortable win and good performance from us. Got the goal that we deserved first half and Walsall had a little period where they played the game they clearly wanted too with long balls etc but saw that out with minimal fuss and then second half have dominated really and should have had a fair few more goals. Hylton, Collins, Justin, Cornick, Pearson, Bradley all with really presentable chances.

Hylton would have dearly loved to finish that chance I bet but agonisingly past the post. Everyone played well I felt but Rea and Collins stood out for me, the latter with lots of running and Rea seemingly getting every loose ball going.

Only downside is Potts seemingly out for a while but with player like Justin to come in not sure it greatly weakens us.

Really good looking game against Accy coming up Tuesday too.

 

[FarehamPompey]

6 points clear!

 

[Craig]

6 points clear!

And only 32 games left!

 

[nelsonpfc]

And only 32 games left!

Early days, but with Barnsley and Peterborough slipping up today. Next two games are huge, especially as Saturday we are away to Accrington. Not a classic today, but completely nullified anything Fleetwood had and probably the most comfortable 1-0 you'd likely to see.

 

[Jockney]

Stunner from Fred! How's he getting on this time round?

 

[oakroader]

So far....

 

[BelizeHatter]

League 2 sides that came up showing a solid start on the whole

 

[Maple Hatter]

We were superb today. A very professional performance with every player putting in a shift. Must have been difficult to select a MoM but perhaps Rea shaded it with a typical captains performance and a goal to boot. Thought Collins ran him a close second with his energy and deserved a goal. Hylton should have scored but is of course is a little rusty and it showed at times. Pelly was his normal self, bossing midfield and making some great challenges, one in particular which took two players out including one of our own. A could carry on and write something about each player with Shea as the exception as he had nothing to do. Walsall offered very little and struggled to cope with our play resorting to long punts up field. It looked like they couldn't wait for the game to end.
Maybe the only negative if it is one is that we didn't score more goals than our play deserved. Will happen soon though. Being cautiously optimistic about our chances this season but have to say we are improving, have depth in our squad and look a confident outfit.
Potts injury is a concern but not a big one when you have Justin coming in to fill that spot. His natural position I think. Its up to him now to keep it.

 

[Judge Dredd]

No idea how Walsall were above us on today's evidence, can't recall seeing any team offer so little in a game for a long time. Never threatened us at all. Never looked like threatening us in fact.

We played well in the second half (thought it was very scrappy first half with us still well on top) but honestly, it was proper cruise control stuff after the second. Very comfortable day's work which is pleasing as I wasn't expecting that today at all.
