Any game involving us is MASSIF

Corrected that for you.

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Preston will be above Swindon again if they win their game in hand on Tuesday.

Edit - My mistake, Swindon are playing too.

 

[Bcfc@downend]

Preston will be above

Exactly preston 3rd then....

 

[Ciderhead]

Well us and Swindon both have much trickier games on paper in midweek, so we'll probably both go and win!

 

[Bcfc@downend]

The mighty MK can wobble as well as anyone ( bar swindon )

 

[RavenBish]

You lot are all fucking terrible.

 

[Gerry Gow]

Bollocks! That's all I have to say.

 

[JonBCFC]

Haha, it does seem as though no one wants to go up! We're lucky I guess that other teams are having a blip at the same time as us.

 

[Agombar stool]

We've turned into fucking shambles thistle this month, after a January without our so called best 2 players.

Big test for us coming up.

Bristol City's defeat to Colchester meant they lost ground in the title race to MK Dons, but with Swindon losing, their gap in the autos remains the same. Still not a good defeat today though. MK Dons recorded another home win and put some distance between themselves and the play off teams.

Swindon suffered a damaging defeat to Crawley and have now lost 4 of their last 5. Temporary blip, or something more serious? Preston got a decent enough home win and are trying hard to make it a 4 horse race again. Sheff U had to claw back a draw at home to Coventry, not great. They'll probably make the play offs but aren't making it easy for themselves. Bradford continue the round robin of holding the 6th spot for a short time, no doubt replaced next week by another team below them. Rinse, repeat.

Donny and Oldham had heavy defeats, Fleetwood managed to scrape past Notts County and Chesterfield continue their slump. If what their fans say is true, they will be soon heading out of this thread. We'll see though, they are in here for now.

 

[Ciderhead]

Great work, thanks JJ! That gap makes things seem a lot better

 

[TomPNE94]

Gallagher went off injured today and my Dad is convinced he has broken his metatarsal. Really hope he is wrong, he's been our best player this season by a mile.

Fuck Gallagher...your dad has long-distance x-ray vision?!?!

 

[TomPNE94]

lol you so funny bish

No, Gallagher got some treatment on his foot right in front of where my Dad sits apparently, not that it means anything

I hope your dad recovers soon, sounds like Preston need him.

Could your Dad come and have a look at Dele as well Tom?

May I be the first to tout a Swindon v Bristol City PO Final

 

[BetterCallSaul]

May I be the first to tout a Swindon v Bristol City PO Final

I can't see both of you finishing 3rd and 4th that would be mad

 

[Indian Dan]

They will finish 3rd, we will finish 5th. Preston and MK will make the autos.

City will play their PO Semi Final against Bradford and we will play Blades.

 

[This Charming Mike]

Are you drunk?

 

[JonBCFC]

And at what point do you wake up?

 

[blademan89]

Bristol city will definitely go up automatically 2nd spot is there for the taking even us who are a bit behind have a decent chance weve played all the top 4 twice and most of the teams directly below us we have played them all away we couldnt ask for an easier run in from now on. Our momentum will of continued after yesterday which in all honesty was a cracking result considering. And if i was clough baxter would be getting a hefty fine for that challenge it cost us a good chance of 3 points

 

[Bcfc@downend]

Top result by the blades yesterday, considering down to 10 men and 2-0 down.
That is a real team character test passed with flying colours, with momentum continuing.

 

[Indian Dan]

And at what point do you wake up?

Our results over the last 4 games has been abysmal.

Your form over the last 4 games only produced 1 more point than us.

You have been protected thus far because your 2 nearest rivals also dropped points.

You will lose your main striker after the next 2 games. Your slump could well continue

 

[This Charming Mike]

Yep, definitely drunk.

 

[Indian Dan]

So what's your considered opinion on how things will pan out - or do you not have one

 

[Bcfc@downend]

Who knows what can happen all part of the fun
Twould be boring if we were 10 points in front at the moment

Yet if we win our game in hand on Tuesday we will be 5 points clear. We were top without Smith, so no concerns there.

Id be more concerned about your own teams chances, don't worry about us we'll be fine

If, if, if
