What did Robins have to say?

[Sky Blue Pete]

Great finish that second goal

 

[stevefloyd]

Is that all he said?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Sorry I’d just watched it. Great finish

 

[ccfcway]

Happy with that, up to 6th and puts the pressure on others to catch us.

nope, don't get it. 2nd half was very similar to 1st half and you weren't happy with that at all.

so you agree it was a good performance ?.

Nick, as I always say, love this site and appreciate you running it, but you have to stop being so negative during a game. We won away and your happy with it, lets not complain about every miss placed pass #2736352

 

[ccfcway]

Fwlt like i watched a diff game to most on here today. To me it was a good solid away performance vs a decent enough team and we made alot of chances

spot on. text book away performance that if someone did to us at the ricoh what we did today they would be saying "they sat back and defended what they had and waited for that one chance and took it"

What are you on about? I am not sure you understand when you come flying in after results referring back to comments made when we weren't the best during the game.

The second half with Biamou and Reid we were about 15 yards further up the pitch, Biamou was winning most things and taking the ball off the defenders and we created much more.

I said I was happy with the result, we won? I wasn't happy about certain things during the game like shit corners, shit throw ins, shit passes etc.

we were on top for the whole game bar about 10-15 mins in the first half.

Flying in ?, I was on this thread the whole game.

Football is an emotional game. People don't always give rational opinions during or just after a game.

Yes, because you are trying to refer back to comments made in the first half when it was different. The game then progressed and changes were made and we were much more attacking, hence people's comments changed.

What next, are you going to look at my comments after we lost to Yeovil and bring them up after we win a game?

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

Well my decision to get a skyblue car has finally paid off

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

What did I say way back before Xmas, we will go up the best and most thrilling way, through the playoffs.
What a massive smart arse I am

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

I thought that us winning there would be no verbal fighting tonight but I think Nick and ccfcway may have other ideas

I'm not giving anybody verbals, just confused why somebody would take my comments at half time when we weren't playing very well and then use them at full time when we improved and the game changed.

come on....all your posts in 2nd half before the goal were negative as well apart from 2.

It perhaps my issue. Not been on the match day thread much for past couple of games as I didn't think it was the same as the game I was watching.

I'll take it as my issue and step away on match days from now on for a while.

As I say, love this site, just don't get why match days threads are so negative

Haynes caught out again not playing to the whistle

That's it, we pressure their defender he puts it straight out.. Pointless as we waste the throw

Jch had it in the counter then but had no options at all. May as well have just hammered out for a goal kick

Pigeon flying is Best thing this half

Are mcnulty and ponti still playing?

Doyle hammers it forward out of play without looking up part 6546645

They will be fuming about that, had time to bring it down, have a cup of tea and put it in the goal. Very lucky and shows we need to go at them, before they score again

Has jch won a header?

Their left back has grimmer every time as well.

That's at least 6 over hit passes that have gone out for a goal kick, just basic passes

Is reid going to get a touch?

Burge says everybody forward, hoofs it to come back at us as it has every single time from a long pass

Doyle needlessly fouls their striker and gets booked

Will Biamou get a touch?

Now we have to play to strengths, we haven't even given reid the ball yet

Mcdonald attempted Hollywood pass part 5325 33

Haynes just aimlessly threw it to their player who was on his own.

Another throw in a good position wasted, ends up us under pressure and burge miskicking it out of play

He's run more and closed down than all 3 of the other strikers.

No idea what they do in training.

Why don't we shoot?

Mcnulty awful overhead, had time to bring it down

Story of the season

Putting pressure on more now reid and biamou are in the game

 

[Nick]

Ah, so because I pointed out actual things that happened during the game? The shit throw ins, the shit corners, the shit crosses.

Just because we scored another and won it doesn't mean everything else didn't happen does it?

If we get into the playoffs does it mean we didn't lose 6-2 to Yeovil?

Was I making the things up I was saying were happening?

Nick, posting things that happen is clearly fine and more than welcome

"why don't we shoot, story of the season, no idea what they do in training, Hollywood pass 535437 etc" isn't what happened, its being negative.

As I say, I'll call it my issue and walk away from match day threads for a while

 

[stevefloyd]

Ahhhh even after a great win the bickering and point scoring still occur

 

[wingy]

Is it metallic?
Nice one Rev
Now get the COV plates .

Was I wrong? Did somebody not have chance to shoot? Did mcdonald not try silly passes that came straight back to us? Were our throw ins fantastic? Were our corners very good? Have we not struggled to break teams a bit like crawley down all season?

I can say we weren't very good but still be happy we won.

Yes metallic skyblue. Bloody lovely ish

 

[Gazolba]

Some people just don't like negativity, it's like glass half-full or half-empty. Some people will say "how did he miss that? He should have scored", other people will say "unlucky, good effort". A very negative person will say "He's a shit striker". People's differences is what makes life interesting, so just accept the differences and move on.

Well it's playoffs at best for us unless Wycombe implode but they have a decent run in.
It's the best way to go up, through playoffs

 

[gspotgaz]

How are Wycombe going up?? They’re absolutely woeful

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

I do wonder about other teams fan sites and how many would be bickering after an away win.
Not many I think

 

[gspotgaz]

How are Wycombe going up?? They’re absolutely woeful

 

[Grendel]

They play to their strengths and despite being unconventional have a centre forward who is a nightmare for defenders.

I dunno who did that but i will say u sermed very down on the performance today

Which is fine as lots thought same bit i myself was impressed with city

 

[skybluetony176]

Anyhow. Great three points today. Doesn’t matter how ugly it was or how many individual errors there were today we got three points and right now that’s all that matters.

Big game Friday and I’m looking forward to it. Don’t care if we play awful, McNaulty fails another overhead kick, Burge kicks it into touch, JCH looks lacklustre and wins nothing in the air, how pedestrian Kelly is etc. all that matters is the points. I’d be delighted if we could win pretty and everyone deserves to be man of the match but I ain’t going to lose any sleep if that doesn’t happen so long as we get enough points to make the playoffs. Nothing else matters at this stage.

 

[ccfcway]

Was I wrong? I can say we weren't very good but still be happy we won.

In my opinion, yes, you were. It was a very competent performance and a game we fully deserved to win. We were the better team for at least 70 mins of the game

 

[covcity4life]

Also great to have willis back. Bit rusty at times but athleticism really makes us stronger


But we should have sold him right?....

 

[wingy]

I think it's all the fault of I follow tbf. Lol.

Pretty accurate description of what was being said on the terraces around me tho.
