Looks off but could just be me

[Sick Boy]

Well off

Miles off.

 

[Ibby]

Well done. Lampard is taking us to the playoffs.

 

[Tommo1993]

Potentially offside on two counts as well

 

[covcity4life]

We were defensively sound with 4 at the back despite a few nervy moments with ball over top. But that happens over 90 mins

Also does anyone still think o hare is a better player than rudoni?

 

[OldBedrocker]

Is Otis selling train tickets to London yet?

 

[skybluecb]

If we continue as we are i can see us catching sunderland, they aren't that great, lost at home to hull today

They have been good. They have some excellent players. Seem to be running out of steam though and sounds like Le Fee got a serious injury today.

The fans won’t stick with them if the going gets tough at the end of the season so I’m not ruling it out, it’s just a bit of a stretch to reel in that many points.

Only the blind would call O'Hare better than Rudoni. It just took Rudoni a bit of time for him to settle into the Championship and get the confidence to do what he does.

 

[Bernie Rhodes Nose]

We beat "the invincible!"

Fuck me, we beat Preston!

 

[Paxman II]

Still want to get adi and Robins back or will you consume the biggest slice of humble pie and accept Lampard was a great appointment?

I've no problem with Lampard, he has only been in the job a short while.
I'm describing how I saw the game. Simple as that. Could easily have dropped two points in the last 20 minutes.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Well off

That's a howler.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Haven't seen any yet. Got a link?

Here’s the YouTube link for the highlights but on iFollow they showed replays of their goal and paused it when the pass was made. Keene was a full body length ahead of the defender.

He was playing in the Championship before he signed for us.

He’s been decent enough from day one, but luckily the settling in has seen him look even better.

It’s his third consecutive season?

Could have easily scored about 17 goals in the 90 minutes.

Could easily have scored 3 or 4 too though

Preston are very underrated. But we could and should have been out of sight before they scored their dodgy goal.

Just shows how far we have come since Lampard took over.

The young lad behind me

Rudoni is worth more than O'Hare ever has been or ever will be. By quite a bit.

 

[Sick Boy]

I was critical of Rudoni but happy to have been wrong; he’s been excellent and is another impressive Austin signing. Would still prefer to have CoH as well, though.

 

[covcity4life]

Are autos definitely out of sight?...

 

[Jamesimus]

I still think O Hare is great, just a different kind of player.

Rudoni is obviously physically much stronger, taller and more composed. Three things that can’t really be taught imo. O Hare will always be a busy player and never a composed player.

The output of Rudoni this season is so impressive. Even when he’s not playing a great game, he’s difficult to substitute because of his dead ball delivery.

 

[Jamesimus]

Are autos definitely out of sight?...

Yes.

 

[Sick Boy]

Stop it.

Don't miss o hare personally. Just wish hamer instead of Eccles(who did well today) in that 11 though and fuck me that's auto clinching

Gyok and o hare were great for us but I just don't miss them loads. But hamer I still do

 

[Lamps]

This season yes. If we don't win the playoffs this season then no

I miss all 3 of them!

We’re totally gonna turn over a 20 point gap within 12 games… (13 for them!)

86 would come close to second wouldn’t it

 

[Otis]

Is Otis selling train tickets to London yet?

Very happy to do that for everyone, as long as they accept it will be from Folkestone Central to London.

 

[shmmeee]

If we continue as we are i can see us catching sunderland, they aren't that great, lost at home to hull today

12 pts behind, 3 games until we play them. It’s technically possible we could go ahead of them when we beat them.

That’s the optimism we’ve been waiting for

Let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves.. 1 game at a time

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

We just look so organised. A functional team that gets points.
