Missed the game. At court (long story). Anyone got the goal clip (iFollow or something that will play in the US) ?

Free kicks conceded at just 1 was huge tonight against a team who have been scoring from set pieces, a few less corners would have been nice but pretty good game management overall.

Love the description of your character and completely agree. Huge performance by the 3cb tonight

Prob shudnt be forgotten how close we came to conced8ng in last seconds but unrelaistic to not expect a good chsnce in all of injury time i guess

We rmemeber the cocneded goals. Lets remember when we survive too.

 

[lifeskyblue]

They had one excellent chance at end...and a couple of half chances/decent shots but apart from the one at the end we didn’t look like conceding. We had one 10min spell when we were unplayable...beautiful slick passing. But overall a fairly even game.
Difference between this team and ones of the past...we can get results when we are not at our best, we can grind out results when the game is even, and we have developed a mentality that says we will not be beaten.

The table is rubbish.

I think I'll trust the opinions of the experienced bookies and data analysts that have been successfully using that kind of data for years ahead of you, even if you are our resident footballing genius. Apologies.

Could have played Kasta for 5 mins at the end to even that stat up and give us all a laugh with his traditional Pompey slide......

FFS accept his apology and we can fight about something else

The bookies only get it right with their own money, thats why their in the game. Ive posted this on your other thread, were averaging 1.86 points per game. That puts in second at the end of the season a point behind Rotherham but promoted.

Should be able to get great odds for a loss at Southend

This is it. People can bang on about what a good side they are- they are not, they are an “effective” side. They’ll win a lot of games playing that way but it’s horrible, and as soon as they come up against a really solid defence & a side with a bit more guile that can soak up all the long ball stuff they’ll come undone, just like they did tonight.

‘They are not a good side’

Dude this is getting weird now. We set up the same way every week and if the system isn’t aD working well Robins normally switches to 2 up front. We don’t change the approach according to the opposition or anything else. Other teams know this and many have tried to exploit it.

Jackett drilled them well for this game and I’m not the only one to have noted as much. They aren’t a shit side. But you berate anyone who notes that we grind out wins despite not playing particularly well.

Walsh was the one who stood out for me again tonight, the kid is awesome.We are a much better side with him in it.
Would love to keep him, but can’t realistically see Bristol City letting him go.

So if I understand this we're going to finish the season with 81.9 points?

Down to Nick, I cannot edit it but Robins is hopefully the maker of CCFC dreams this year, we’re just enjoying it right now

I think I’ll trust the league table. Apologies.

Or us being in a position to afford him!

I'll ask if she can move things around

Thanks mate, hope you can lol

It’s not a good indicator but it’s an effective one

No-one told you not to.

 

[Old Warwickshire lad]

Unfortunately you are probably right.

 

[Ring Of Steel]

Actually I’d say the league table is a pretty good indicator, no?

 

[pipkin73]

Don't even joke about.

 

[Mcbean]

Such a good feeling after tonight’s match - wore my twat hat - still Ice cream Toney scored two goals for Peatboghorror- I checked for good measure

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Just got home from the game having found the dirtiest Kharai House I could find on the Coventry Rd, to grind a 1-0 out on a freezing Tuesday February evening against one of the strongest and in form sides in the league (behind us I would like to add) has to bode well for the remainder of the season. PUSB

Apparently. And it took 4 silly graphs to say that.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Just got in, wish someone had told me half of the M5 was shut. Worth every second for the pandemonium after the goal.

 

[win9nut]

Just in... OMG what a finish to a match.
Felt that they were good for a 0-0, neither team really taking the game by the scruff of the neck.
MOM for me was any one of the three centre halves, commanding performances, heading everything that came their way, special mention to O'Hare who I thought was also excellent.
So pleased to win, sets us up nicely for the run in!
Haven't cashed out my bet for us to finish top and won't do just yet!

 

[The Great Eastern]

Just looked on the Pompey board and not one mention of the game tonight. Only post after the finish time was moaning about their purple kit. Am I looking in the wrong place?

 

[Kingokings204]

What a result. Dare to dream

Also this is the one time godden wasn’t offside and as I said on here. It just takes one. What a great finish
