Fuck it bring on the championship

[Nick]

We've taken a championship side to penalties over two games.

So? We have missed an open goal in the first game then conceded in the last minute twice tonight.

 

[fernandopartridge]

We are desperate for a quality striker who will put chances away for us. It'll be the end of our season as we can't afford to miss so many.
Going out tonight might be a blessing in disguise but disappointing.
I stand by my comments on Biamou, he's not really good enough yet none of his fellow strikers are either

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Not really. Glad not to have an extra game. £££s would have been nice though.

Another 2 hours played for no reason

 

[covmark]

There is after winning until the last minute twice. Woeful

Go and have a lie down Nick ffs. It happens.

Well done lads. No shame in that at all. Unbeaten in 210 minutes of play against a side a level above us and at their ground for all of it.

Now we can concentrate on the season ahead.

 

[mark82]

Anyway, unbeaten in 11 now.

 

[Nick]

We've been better than a championship team over 2 games.

But we have lost....

 

[Skybluefaz]

We've done well over the 2 games. Take the positives and let's smash the league

 

[stevefloyd]

Ahh well... great effort by the mighty sky blues its the league for us now... didnt really fancy getting mauled by fester but the extra wedge would have been nice

 

[Grendel]

Don't be silly. We have the best GK out of the two. And several players who know where the back of the net is.

Ok Nostradamus

 

[fernandopartridge]

Godden has zero attributes.

Not writing him off, but he really was not a good option tonight.

He was just put through and his lack of pace was appalling.

I don't think he's fit tbh, definitely lacking sharpness

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Ouch that hurts. Let it hurt for a minute.

We learn our lessons from that.

We move on. Proud of the team.

 

[Nick]

It was bullshit them picking the end and then letting their fans round.

 

[mark82]

But we have lost....

Technically we drew. Hate going out but shit happens. Concentrate on the league now.

 

[Blind-Faith]

I need to sleep on this, as at the moment im utterly fucked off! Fucking blue nose wankers

 

[jordan210]

I hope we put an complaint,About fans being aloud to move to a different stand.

Not that it achieves anything as FA won't do anything about it.Plus we won't want to upset Brum

 

[Adge]

God damn it!

 

[mark82]

It was bullshit them picking the end and then letting their fans round.

Yeah, that was bad form.

 

[Grendel]

It was bullshit them picking the end and then letting their fans round.

It really shouldn’t bother the players

 

[ccfcway]

Shame we lost but have to say, we have competed with a championship team for the 2nd game running. It means we have one game less this season and no distraction other than the league now.

Time to give our full focus on the league.

PUSB !!!!!

 

[Paxman II]

Well I called it but in hindsight I'm sort of glad we went out swinging and the better side and it was a penalty lottery in the end. We can hold heads high still and brim with confidence for the vital league games and promotion target. Sorry about the money bonus wemiss but the league will be seen as the key for our season.

 

[Evo1883]

We don't need to crucify the team now lads ffs, they gave it all and we lost.

Move on, our season continues and we have much bigger things to aim for

 

[Skyblueweeman]

So? We have missed an open goal in the first game then conceded in the last minute twice tonight.

We're a L1 side Nick. Open goals aren't uncommon in football. Last minute goals aren't uncommon - especially against us.

But get some perspective...the money would've been useful not playing any extra games over a busy league period, can only help.

Is everything rosey, no, of course. But no need for mega over-reactions tonight.

 

[Grendel]

Technically we drew. Hate going out but shit happens. Concentrate on the league now.

The draw would be after 90 minutes in that case anyway

 

[hill83]

It was bullshit them picking the end and then letting their fans round.

Can’t use that as an excuse though surely. If the ground was full they would have fans behind the goal anyway. Bit of shit one though.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

We didn’t deserve to lose that! We were the better side and Birmingham rode their luck. But, that’s sport and this stuff happens.

Plenty of positives to take from this.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Well done lads. No shame in that at all. Unbeaten in 210 minutes of play against a side a level above us and at their ground for all of it.

Not going to get promoted by constant missing of sitters and last minute chokes

 

[mark82]

Penalties is a lottery. It's more the fact the Brum guy decided that end was safer then not bothered when their fans end up behind the goal.

 

[Ring Of Steel]

Very proud. If we had better finishing we’d have spanked them. We outplayed and outsang a team in the division above us. We don’t score enough and that needs sorting, but that’s not exactly a shock.

Absolutely nothing to be ashamed of, every reason to be optimistic, pick ourselves up and be pumped up for the rest of the season.

The future is very bright, get behind them and let’s get out of this league.

 

[Kieranp96]

Yikes,

 

[tigersb]

Gutted

It's really not, both of their goals were schoolboy

 

[covcity4life]

Have to ensure that ww take confidenxe and heart from this rather than be gutted for weekend game.

Win vs bolton and this wont hurt at all

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Bullshit that is.

No bottle, schoolboy shit for both of their goals.

Nick it was a duckin fluke

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

Well that was a real cup tie. No shame. Let's get over it quickly and get out of this fucking division

This.
