Tues 5 March fixtures

[thewwfc]

Only a few games on tonight as teams look to make up games in hand.

Nonetheless, 2 out of 3 look like bangers, one promotion six-pointer and a relegation one.

As has already been noted on the relegation dogfight thread, if Cheltenham can get a win in their game, it'll cause some serious anxiety for the teams just above the drop zone. Charlton have picked their form up a little since the manager change, and certainly aren't as crap as they were, but I feel that Chelts would be the favourites here.

 

[BRFC_Gas]

All home wins please

 

[CTFCfan99]

Really feels like a must win. After tomorrow we'll probably only play twice more before 29th March with Posh H likely to be postponed, and those are Oxford A and Barnsley A. Unlikely to get much from those two and teams around us will all play 3 or 4 times in that time, so even with games in hand we could be cut adrift.

Bloody hell, forgot we've lost all our internationals now so have to play and ruin more weekends!

Not sure I agree it's must win, but absolutely must not lose.

I've got a bad feeling about it though. I'm probably more confident of getting something out of Oxford on Saturday, which says more about my hopes for tomorrow than Saturday's game.

It might not mean as much with a view to promotion or relegation but our game against Posh is a big local rivalry. Not feeling particularly confident as we usually come away empty handed. That being said we have consistently been picking up results this season so a positive result is not out of the question.

Sadly Im predicting a 3-1 loss but hoping for otherwise. Should be a good atmosphere.

Barnsley v Bolton draw for me please..

The other is the Nene Derby

Pretty nervous about this one, can’t see us getting anything but I’d give my left tit for us to do them at their place.

I wouldn't be so confident If Oxford play like they did at FP Saturday. Just about the best team down here all season.

This is the thing. Sides always seem to raise their games against us. We snuck past Carlise, and Port Vale. I would say Oxford won't play anywhere near as good as they did Saturday again this season. Josh Murphy ran rings round us yet has 3 goal involments all season.

 

[folletto]

We need to bounce back after throwing the game away at Northampton. Cheltenham have been a bit of a bogey team for us and it will be a tough game. We are drawing a lot of games this season and I would happily take a draw today. Lose and things start to get really nervy again

We are incapable of raising our game, you just weren`t very good.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Nene Derby, Roses Derby, Alfie May Derby...

Bizarrely, I have woken up extremely confident this morning and think we’ll get a decent win.

I’m usually pretty pessimistic so not sure where this feeling has come from and it’s based on nothing at all.

Crickey... that home game was one of the worst we've put in all season! We were just lucky you couldn't hit a barn door all afternoon that day. Then just got gradually worse since.

Pessimism comes with being a Charlton fan sadly. I had a feeling we'd beat Derby and Northampton but have a bad feeling we will lose tonight - really hope I'm proven wrong.

Barnsley sneaking 2nd would be a plot twist, they've been pretty average this year haven't they?

 

[thewwfc]

I dunno, I've only seen them once this season (last week) but they looked pretty good to me, decent combo of having some actual capable footballers and being evil, dirty cheating c**ts.

Having both attributes together (a lot of teams might be one or the other, but not both) isn't that common, but if you can do both depending on what the game needs, that's a positive.

 

[BRFC_Gas]

They looked pretty average both times against us but still took 4 points.
We totally outplayed them at home but that was in the Barton days when we couldn't finish a sandwich. The fact they are up there just shows they can grind out results, and also the quality of the division.

They’ve been the best team I’ve seen visit the abbey this season.

 

[codaplenty]

Cheltenham v Charlton, draw please

 

[masi51]

Not expecting much..........Role on May to a Wembley jollie boys outing

 

[Bobbin']

Cheltenham v Charlton, draw please

Surely a Charlton win would be best for Fleetwood?

After now seeing the bench again, I’m not confident at all. It’s awful. Have to hope the starting 11 get it done early doors.

Awful team, team of thugs that get results...Will bounce between the champoinship and league one for the next ten years
How do you come to the conclusion they play good football?

It seems like a better bench than Cheltenhams!

 

[Bobbin']

Don’t know much about theirs in fairness but just know there isn’t anyone on ours who can come on and affect the game.

 

[CTFCfan99]

Says a lot when our best option off the bench is a young lad we just signed from Bath City!

 

[Laker]

Charlton 1-0 up. I’m happy for it to stay like that thank you very much….!

16mins gone here going to call it....sendings off here most likely thomason
