Ah well there’s always next season

Reading back through the thread after being out all afternoon, and this is the highlight so far. I can hear the p*ss dribbling from the mattress on to the carpet.

I get that you do not rate Sheaf

Whatever his original opinion was, it's just performative now.

 

[clint van damme]

did you have to go and look it up in a dictionary?

you told me to shut up but then in the next post championed the fact this is an open forum where people are entitled to air views - that’s the very definition of irony

you’re boring me now, so unless you’ve got a football related opinion I won’t bother putting you back in your box again

Good wind up, fair play, for a moment I thought you were as stupid as you're coming across. You got me.

Bidwell not great as some have said but just done for pace. Was surprised when their winger came off.

 

[shmmeee]

I think penalty shots should be looked at in training. We're bloody useless with them!

We’re probably going to need to be better at them if we want to win the playoffs.

Is that Irony? Not really verbal, dramatic or situational irony.

Eccles, Sheaf and Grimes is not a good pairing. We lost that flair with Rudi going off.

Esp with how Poor both Sheaf and Eccles are at shooting.

 

[Sick Boy]

FL’s win percentage can’t be far off 60% now?

If we stop being so wasteful in general we’ll be out of sight without needing them

 

[RoysterE17]

Well that was a naughty game!! Hopefully rudi not out for to long.... cho choo the cov train carries on!! Bring on Stoke!!

 

[mmttww]

8 wins in 9 is quite frankly incredible.

Nice pun work; would read again!

 

[clint van damme]

Finally saw us win away this season ! 10th away game, taken until March!

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Of course it's all down to Sheaf

Ok.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Bidwell isn't helped by having zero cover in front of him

You'd think one of the defensive midfielders would come over to help out. Definitely needs a bit of thought as teams will target our left.

 

[skybluecb]

Why did Simms take the penalty? I thought Sheaf or Grimes would have. Simms is to casual to take penalties. In the end it didn't matter. I was watching Wright when he came on and he kept coming over to the left, where EMC was. Lampards going to have to sort that out if they are both going to start games. Where does this leave Simms, all 3 of them can't play

 

[Lamps]

Careful
Overconfidence will kick you in the ass

Oh no it won't


But it nearly did

 

[AOM]

Just the thought of another shoot out at Wembley actually makes me feel a bit sick

they'll rotate, we can play the same 3 every game as we'll run them into the ground

The years of reading dad jokes on here has served me well.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

I kind of got sheaf on for the midfield three. Not the same amount of flair but think the plan was to squeeze the life out of the game with possession with our flairs players being EMC and tats.

Didn't end up that way mind

If Rudoni is out for a bit could play torp or Paterson as the 10 with sheaf and grimes behind

100% Torp - Paterson is nowhere near ready to be starting games.

 

[Ibby]

Huge win. In to them playoffs.

 

[Frostie]

This is quite frankly ridiculous.

Considering we've been without Sheaf & Wright for most of this run & haven't even played consistently well during it. Tidy up a bit defensively & find a way to get out best players in there & just how good could we be?

 

[Cally Fedora]

A wins a win. That was fraught but we keep getting over the line

 

[clint van damme]

That's all that counts at this stage.
Free flowing big wins would be great but the points is be all and end all at the moment

Confirmed dislocated shoulder for Rudi could be 6-12 weeks if so.

Best of all none of our rivals chasing 5th and 6th are anywhere near us regardless of whether you look at last 6/8/10/12/14/16 games.

This is such an opportunity.

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Brilliant win, shows that fighting character that we have lacked for a while.

Even better, was watching MVE almost face plant the hoarding, as he lost his balance amidst celebrating Tatsu’s goal.
