All off to Ashton Gate!

[Worthy4England]

Great win. (Well I don't care if it was great or not TBH).

COYWM in a "still fecking domed" sense.

So.... now we have control over our own destiny. Which means that if we win all our remaining games, we get promoted.

That would actually have been true before today's game.

Well done to Zat Knight today. Pulling rank on the field and ensuring the right man took the penalty that got the 3 points.

And he won't get much if any credit for that from most. But had Davies missed....Knight would have taken a battering....

Plus sounds like he had a belting game. Commentators seemed to indicate he was our best on the day....

but according to radio TD he got an ear bashing from Dawson. fair point on the penalty shout though

Was only one incident, but that's what the commentator claimed.

[Enoch]

You missed the official line-up which was of no interest to you at all.

Ha!

I didn't even need to see that to know I was £1 to the good in my fantasy bank account.

I claim my pint of Guinness, or at least I will next time I'm up.

This is getting silly, I don't think my nerves/fingernails are going to take much more of this??

If I understand it correctly, Oldham winning at Bury would relegate not just the Shakers but also poor (literally) old (literally) Pompey

wow, could be worse you could be a portsmouth fan

pompey winning 2/1 at Brentford in 89th minute. Losing 3/2 in 90 th minute.......................

I don't think so. They, along with Hartlepools, are five points adrift with two games remaining. A remote chance, especially considering Oldham have two games in hand, but still a chance.

might of missed an earlier post or summat, & apologies if i have; but pompey winning with a minute left, brentford score two in a minute. Pompey also to come out of administration next week and will be docked 10 points, reducing them to a possible 29 point finish. They are certainly down, but all the pompey fans I know are relishing the prospect of climbing back up. I'm not a pompey fan, I live close and have been to quite a few matches over the years, but boy have they had it hard, and as such, I wish 'em all the best. It's proper football. Feck your utd's and Arsenal's etc, football on a budget.

If things go well in the next few games there will be a 2 legged semi-final, followed possibly by a final.

If your fingers are bleeding now it'll be your knuckles by then.

True that, I'll have bloody stumps come summer time

Looks like Stockport are going to drop into whatever's below the conference. fecking hell. When I think back to them being our arch rivals - Kevin Francis, Andy Preece et al.

sad times for north west football.

fondly remember going to a 0-0 draw at their place a few years back as a lad. Claus Jensen hit the crossbar.

I remember a Rickett's goal at their place which I consider one of the best I've ever seen live. A kind of dinked 'golf' chip from the edge of the box. .........Happy days.

Fair play to Dougie, i didn't think he'd be up to much and assumed he'd be an average at best manager, i wasn't even entertaining the idea of potentially being in a play-offs position in November. He doesn't get the credit he deserves, we could very easily be in a similar position to Jackburn at the moment.

Much as I dislike him as a person; I remember a lot of people saying that about another single minded scottish manager about 25 years or so ago. I wonder how he turned out.........?

Well we just got rid of one of them too. It didn't turn out much good on that occasion.

[ChrisC]

Nobody seems to have mentioned we are only 3 points behind Palace now so they are in the mix along with us, Brighton, Forest and Leicester.

Palace will be bricking it now.

[Bijou Bob]

Anyone know what the time the coach to Leicester leaves the Bok? I'm fancying this one!

[Annoyed Grunt]

4pm..

[89bwfc89]

4pm, booking tickets on Mon. Nervous already. Domed.

Edit: Just been on the website, says no tickets available for the coach, hope they put another one on!

[Bijou Bob]

Ta, In that case, I'll be going!

Highlights or goals anyone?

Remember it too. It was the game before Ricketts played for England. 3rd round of the FA cup but I'm sure it was a night match for some reason. We were already about 3-1 up and everyone was bemused as to why Allardyce had fetched Ricketts on ahead of his call up when the game was already safe.
I'll give you a bonus point though if you can remember who played in goal for us that game (without consulting anyone or anything )
