Re: Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.
Interesting. I was under the impression that every single one of players was a non-league carthorse/pub player. Now it's an excellent squad doing it all in spite of an out-of-his-depth manager.
Curious.

Rumours circulating at the ground that JDB is out. Ankle. Could be done until the play-off final.
Geth Jones supposedly the other new addition to the physio table.

Re: Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.
The hows and the whys matter not. Must win.
A proper spanking would do wonders for three things, though - 1) our goal difference, 2) our confidence, 3) potentially instilling a bit of "oh-God-that-train-is-coming-up-behind-really-effing-QUICK" fear into Derby...

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO
The world is full of "coulda been a contenders." They're the ones that didn't. Let's give 'em a badge for trying. I was just saying that the margins have been finer than they appear over the course of the season. There's no doubt that we'll finish where we deserve to finish - but today's game, for ...

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO
Bold claim indeed, considering the goal came from a breakdown between Ogbeta and Sheehan, then Kamara driving towards Toal.officer_dibble wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2024 7:07 pmThought the decision to start Gethin cost us the goal fwiw.
But not slating them how they played / tried today.
Jones had nothing to do with it.

Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO
Thought we were very good. There's not a lot to choose between the two sides, but we were better than them today. Should have come away with three points, which is mildly frustrating, but I can't say I'm too disappointed with the result. We're back to needing Cambridge and/or Carlisle to do us a fav...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
Orient are still in with a (very) outside chance of playoffs. Totally out of their hands, like, but I can see them being well up for their match vs Derby. Course, we've got the hardest match of the weekend, against a Pompey side for whom victory could seal the whole damn season. But we've no need to...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
Cant see Derby dropping anymore points. Thought Wycombe away for them would be our best bet, but with them losing the final, it will be hard for them to pick themselves up having nothing to play for now. Arguably our best bet is for them to drop points against Leyton Orient or Wycombe. Trouble is, ...

They can get mathematically promoted by beating us. A draw wouldn't do it.

It's ludicrous. A mass, habitual distrust of anything that isn't agricultural hoofball.

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
Aye. As I've said before, I think for some, negativity is a self-protection mechanism - assume the worst and you won't be disappointed. Although some of the loudest voices last week seem rather quieter this week, which doesn't help dispel the notion that there's a masochistic desire to fail. One pe...

Re: What's Ste Evan's Age? 61, I think. Stevenage away. 29/03/2024 - 3pm
However at least Dave the Minion (aka Ian Evatt) & Mar will be happy as in their opinion Evatt can't do anything wrong. The only way that I'm renewing my ST if we are still in League 1 next season is if the manager isn't Evatt. Seriously??? This is hilarious... In case you need it spelling out, I'm...

Naw, to be fair he said couple of posts earlier that "I really do want us to win" - and I'm sure he does. We all do, we just squabble over how best to do it. Thing is, the mood on here after disappointing results has become so toxic that I for one can't be arsed. Others are very much keen to be ars...

Re: Not between the lines...V Reading at home Monday Apr 1st 3-0;clock
Tremendous win. Should have been out of sight by half time. We were really unlucky to not have scored at least four. Disappointing to have conceded two, but that's a minor concern. Strikers put five away between them and linked up well - that's the headline. Crowd was really quiet for most of the ga...

Don't take this the wrong way Ian (sorry Dave) but I really don't care about your opinion, approval / welcome etc. The fact is I have only enjoyed a handful of games over the past 2 seasons under Evatt. most games send me to sleep, the football is turgid, boring, slow, predictable, robotic.
