Saturday 15 March fixtures

Another Six-Pointer Saturday.

Bolton v Stockport
Cambridge v Posh (game of the day, both a local derby AND a six-pointer)
Shrews v Burton

and what's that game at the bottom of the list...oh

great that Wxm were (apparently, according to their own fans) absolute wank tonight v Reading, but less good that they will desperately want to bounce back on Saturday.

From what I have read, they were playing for the draw tonight and it went a bit tits up, ironically if they play pure negativity-ball against us then that should stand them in very good stead as we're really not very good against it, and they could well scrape yet another 1-0 against us.

Will be a big result morale-wise if either of us wins on Saturday, but Wrexham's run-in is easier than ours and the bookies already have them as favourites to finish 2nd.

You're being too kind if you saw us call ourselves wank, wasn't even that good. At least that ends with a happy ending...Our performance was utterly utterly shit. Don't think I got even remotely excited once. PP has to shoulder the blame for the way we set up.

Loving this quote from the Wxm forum:

“We’ve lost our identity since all these new signings we’ve made. Smith looks a very capable signing but he should be playing with Fletcher, Palmer or Mullin, not Dogriguez.”

I’ll see your “lost our identity because we signed some players” and I’ll raise you a:

• we lost our manager
• we signed a bunch of players, most of whom have barely been in the squad let alone actually played
• None of these were chosen by the new head coach and so he faces the odd task of having to integrate new players he may not even rate at all
• We have a new club record 1m EUR signing who has played a full 30 mins of football since arrival…WTF would you sign someone who can’t hit the ground running?
• We seem to have largely lost our attacking mojo and are feebly over-reliant on Kone
• We’re crap at hold-up play and therefore helpless v a resolute defence
• Can’t cross any more
• Crap at set pieces

But anyway, maybe it should be Charlton everyone’s looking at for second instead, who knows.

Thankfully this looks like a nothing game, a chance to tease Evans about eating pies and shout 'Cameron Dawson, he's better than you' at Phillips as the third goal slams in.
