Promotion thread

[FGR Stroud]

Then you've a short memory and all is evidenced on this very thread. [No evidence offered] You're more than capable of going back and reading it all. [Don't need to cause its all bullshit you've offered] I'm sure come May i'll go back and quote each and every one of you that trolled me about my correct analysis that FGR really are not a very good side and won't be running away with the league, while the FGR camp were working out if they'd beat Northampton's record points [The discussion concerning Northampton's record points total was fair at time it was posted. Now I agree and accept that FGR will not match that record] . LOL!

Please show exactly where you THINK I trolled you because I aint done so.
In fact I've been complimentary towards Exeter. They have some of the best stewards in League.
So do stop trying to create disharmony on this site. You are only making a fool of yourself.

We’ve got two massive games this week, Swindon away tomorrow and Tranmere at home on Saturday. I’m just hoping that the injuries picked up at Walsall aren’t serious and that we can focus on games this month rather than one next month.

 

[Conker]

Mansfield’s away record is pretty shoddy isn’t it? 16th best in the league and more away games than home remaining.

Battle of the teams top of the form table today too in Salford v Exeter.

Another nervy day awaits.

I mean it’s got better recently, we lost a lot of away games during our winless run. Definitely better at home but don’t think it’s a good idea to bank on bad away form yet. Another tough one tomorrow mind, difficult run in generally.

Don’t worry I wasn’t banking on anything! I was just scanning the form tables and it stuck out

Heading to our game on Saturday. What’s the walk like from the station? Maps says 30 mins or is it easier to get a bus to and from?

I think there’s a bus every 15/20 minutes (various routes) that will take you to Sixfields but the walk is easy enough. If you’re after a few pints there’s pubs en route too (Thomas Becket outside the station, Foundryman Arms a bit further down, and then the Sevens further down towards the ground - all which will take away fans). The pubs are better than the generic ones at Sixfields itself (The Walter Tull/Sixfields Tavern) so if pubs are the focus I’d recommend that.

The bus after the game goes from the top of the hill as well so not far to go if you do go for the bus, but it always looks quite busy (buses are there pretty sharpish after FT though so not sure how long it takes to clear the queue and get everyone on board)

Cheers for this. Meeting my dad at the game so probably thinking to get the bus there so I get more time to catch up over a beer and walk back - I imagine by the time the bus gets through the traffic it’s probably not too different from walking?

Your opinions on Exeter bear no relevancy to how shite FGR are and the point of this conversation. Must try harder to troll.

Quotes from you all given when we win the league, or failing that, don't be lazy and look back (maybe delete some to save face)

NB. With a bottom half budget your comments about us failing to get promoted with Vince spunking 5 fold what we have make you look incredibly tinpot, but you are. Remind me why you aren't in the conference south now when you got relegated from the conference?

I made big error in replying to your 1st post when I should have ignored you as does every other FGR supporter on site. My mistake.
I won't make same error again despite you repeatedly slagging off FGR.
Goodbye.

Welcome to the gobshite world of the self-described "lad", the loud look at me never hiding the emptiness within.

On the way back yeah there’s probably not a lot in it. Best bet after full time is turning left out of the away end and walking down Edgar Mobbs Way.

 

[HutchECFC]

I can only apologise, lads...

 

[Indian Dan]

Our game home v FGR later this month has been postponed due to international call ups.

We have them at home on April 23rd. 2 derby games within a few days for FGR...

I made the grave error of having a look on twitter. Apparently according to an FGR fan called Lee Pitts, Swindon are trying to play "mind games" by having players called up for international duty. Not quite sure what he actually means, although I suspect he is probably unaware of what he means half the time.

 

[Indian Dan]

Whilst forgetting the fact that when we played them away with 4 players also missing on international duty we didn’t call it off and screwed them over 2-0.

Tbf, it does give the chance of a couple of our longer term injured players to regain fitness - Barry and Tomlinson.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

You're just running scared of our failure to win for weeks on end

 

[Devon_Lad]

It's hard always being right.

 

[BRFC_Gas]

Finally in the play off places!

 

[kieran_vale]

This race is utterly ridiculous. It’s a huge if but should we win both our games in hand we would be in the auto spots. Suppose down as far as Salford maybe still in the conversation for playoffs at least?

Been a big few days for us with a couple of wins. Tough one next at Bradford though, with Hughes in charge no doubt they’ll be much harder proposition.

 

[Devon_Lad]

we win both our games in hand we would be in the auto spots.

Not necessarily. You can't catch Northampton if you won those 2 games and we'd only need 2 points from our two games in hand to stop you getting in the autos regardless of if you won both yours. That's ignoring the fact Mansfield can overtake you if they win their games in hand.

Sure though I think I’m right in saying one of the games in hand for both of us is against each other next Tuesday.

 

[Chris FGR]

We are trying our best to fuck this up. Tbh none of our fans expected us to be doing this well, but it will still be a massive disappointment to not go up from where we were. Our team is now looking like the relatively average squad it is on paper, with a huge reliance on our wing backs to produce.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Yes, we have two games in hand. One at your place and one at home to Barrow.

Have a feeling that the last game of the season will be huge.

 

[AdamStag]

goodnight

 

[Devon_Lad]

Yep. Even if you win it, we can still win our other game to stop you getting top 3 once we've both caught up, and like I say Mansfield can too.

I think we still have to play you twice and Mansfield have to play FGR twice so it'll be a close affair.

 

[Devon_Lad]

We'll be promoted way before then. Could be a title deciding game though.

 

[Indian Dan]

We only have 2 6-pointers left - FGR and Newport, both at home. Lovely to see all the others take points of each other, though. Really can’t call this. There’ll be some disappointed fans/clubs come May.

 

[Boz]

We’ve a trip to Sutton and home games with Exeter and Brizzle Rovers left. Our run-in doesn’t look too bad otherwise and in with a good chance of making the play-offs. Automatics would probably need 7 points from those three and winning nearly all of the rest.
