Not exactly a Derby. Away to The Rams, Sat 16th March 3-0'clock.

Feels like nothing else matters but worth mentioning it's Posh-Pompey today too...

I think I'd rather a Pompey win there.

Not for me. I'd much rather us harbour hopes of a title push rather than settling for second. If we're good enough we'll win our games, can't be reliant on other teams doing us favours, especially not Pompey.



We've had a decent run of refs lately. Hopefully we're past our hurdle of bad refs.


Wish the camera man would zoom out a touch

Hmm Derby look quite good don't they

Think we look nervous.

Feels like every time we do something quite well, they do it slightly betterer

Parts of Derby's pitch paying homage to the Baseball Ground

Not sure i'd agree with that. Been nothing in it for me so far. Both teams wanting to control the ball and push forward so the centre half is near the half way line.

I'm getting the impression everyone on that pitch is nervous.

[DJBlu]

So many heavy touches.

COYWM!!!

Wev'e settled a bit more now. Maybe it's just my nerves...

That's a great save from their keeper. Felt like it was in slow motion that.

[DJBlu]

How the feck did that stay out?

What a save keeper.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

OMG stunning save from Wildsmith.

Think that's the third game in a row Bod's had a point-blank header but he did nowt wrong there, superb save.

Joe Taylor scores again for Lincoln...

Derby fans won't want too much more of this, we've looked very confident last few minutes

[BWFC_Insane]

Ogbeta needs to calm down here. Wasting some good positions.

[nicholaldo]

I'm encouraged by how well we've managed to impose our style of play so far...

[nicholaldo]

How can it be that Ogbeta's delivery in is so erratic?

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

We're knocking it about very nicely and with intent, but Nat Ogbeta's got his Toblerone boots on today.

Dwight 'Crystal' Gayle having a lie-down, let's hope that doesn't spike our momentum.

[BWFC_Insane]

How can it be that Ogbeta's delivery in is so erratic?

He’s better from a static position I’ve noticed. His delivery is less good when he is at pace.

Stevenage 0-1 Leyton Orient
Lincoln 2-0 Bristol Rovers


Looks like Stevenage are a bit shell shocked after last match, the international break will do them some good, so it may not be the best time to play them after having some time to get their heads together.

As for playing teams at the right time, we definitely seem to have played Lincoln at the right time, as they're currently top of the form table after 10 games. Sadly they're not playing any of the top 6 runners up until the final day where they play Pompey in what's likely to be a dead rubber.

Lincoln for a play off promotion?
