Yeah this league is shite. Another poor performance from us but thankfully Coventry were fucking garbage.

It's not a shite league, I just reckon there's like 16 teams of similar calibre, in that they are all inconsistent and capable of beating anyone. I suppose some could say that's why it's shit, but I think it's entertaining to be honest.

 

[TomPNE94]

Sorry Cov, it looked like you'd settled for a 1-0 defeat until stoppage time!

We are really shit. He also dropped our best player, Odelusi, out of the squad for no reason. Anyway, I best go back to the relegation thread.

Have to disagree saddler, there is some absolute garbage in this league, Barnsley, Scunthorpe, Crewe and Doncaster spring to mind from games at the county ground. Coventry on sky were pretty inept also.

Kevin Davies scored, anything is possible, Preston for Champions!

 

[blademan89]

13 points out of our last 36 possible slightly above relegation form

Oh yeah, I'm on about the teams from about 15th-16th upwards who could all make a claim for 6th place on current standings, not disagreeing that there is some shit towards the bottom of the division, but there is each year.

Still here

I've yet to be massively impressed by anyone yet this season. Rochdale probably the best side I've seen. Bristol City clearly hindered by a third minute red card which meant the couldn't express themselves fully.

Nice, isn't it?

If we beat Chesterfield on Tuesday we will move 11 points clear of them. Surely we are in the play offs then?

 

[LuSiVe]

And if we beat you we're only 5 points behind and you're catchable.

 

[Ciderup]

If Mk are (according to one of their players), the 'best team in the league', after today, we may as well book the open top bus!
They're nothing special at all.

 

[BetterCallSaul]

That's ok as neither were you. It's how you perform against other teams in the league, and if we can keep on smashing teams 5-0, 7-0, 6-1, 6-0 then we will be fine. We've only had one loss in 19 games... Even if we don't make it we will definitely be up there.

 

[Inspector Todd]

Think that little stat will be blown at Bradford sadly. Not sure why, just very worried about the next one.

Shit pitch, live on Sky, away from home on a Tuesday night against a long ball team. We are going to get hammered surely?

 

[JonBCFC]

Think Bradford plays better away, rather than at home.. They are a well organised side and looked decent at Ashton gate so could go anyway that game really.

None of our players has said we were ' the best team in the league' though. Thank Mr Andrews for that. My comment was tongue in cheek anyway.

I think on our day, we are the 'best team in the league'. You could probably say that about Swindon Town and Bristol City too but I think we have shown by some of our results as alluded to that we can be unplayable. Having said all that, the 'best team in the league' is the one that accumulates the most points come May and that will not be us, it will be Bristol City.

 

[Hurrikeen]

MK Dons are comfortably the best side we've played this season, although that was also our worst performance too.

There's a long way to go yet bud. FWIW, I think both sides were too scared to lose yesterday which made for a less entertaining game. As 0-0's go, it wasn't a bad one though.

Yep, that was the worst Oldham side I have seen since...last season, and the season before that, and that etc

 

[LuSiVe]

And Swindon are the best we've played....

 

[Ciderup]

And Swindon are the best we've played....

..and I would say Oldham looked very good at our place.
Weird!!
