Bar the terrible first few decisions the ref was wearing sky blue! Cud easilt have sent doyle off minutes after swindon player went off
Have you taken a bang to the head again? :smuggrin:
Is that you and yourself?
Most important win of the season so far I would say.
1. Away form has been dodgy
2. Swindon have been a bogey team for us for some time.
3. We won from being a goal behind.
This year all I am focusing in is how many points we need to be safe from being caught in the top 3.How many more points to be safe
I'm sorry I wholeheartedly disagree with this lazy bullshit. I think he works his socks off, especially when it comes to hounding defenders on the ball. If anything he scares me a bit that he will get himself sent off with silly fouls!
Games like Barnet away where we have faltered in the past and lost by a silly goal. Hopefully we can get results at teams like these. Optimistic but certainly still grounded at this stage!4 wins in last 5 games. And they were not an easy looking 5 games. Just look at the last 2. One against a team that were on a long winning run. They hadn't lost all season. We made them look poor. Then last night away to a team that we hadn't beat in the league for a very long time. A top 7 side. The result made them look better than they were.
So onto the next 5.
Crewe H
18th place. Lost last 4 games.
Barnet A
15th place. 1 point out of last 4 games.
Accrington A
3rd place. 1 point and 1 place above us. But they win one then don't win the next. 20 goals so far but 13 against after 10 games. If our defence can be as tight as usual we have a good chance of getting some sort of result.
Forest Green Rovers H
24th and bottom. Have leaked 25 goals so far. 1 point from last 5 games.
Colchester H
21st place. 2 points from last 4 games. Have scored 15 goals but 18 against.
Would settle for 4 wins. No reason why we shouldn't get 12 points minimum. But we need to start beating the teams near the bottom.
Honestly think we will win this League, keep looking at the table and the teams in it and unless our owners pull the rug out in January think we should finally turn a corner in 2018 ! Cov Rugby to win their Division too and Wasps to flounder will make for a cracking spring !
The 3 home games should be 9 points. Not looking for just 1 point in the other two games.I’d be happy with 9/10 points from that
Good point, worth asking Jim Brown on TwitterDoyle's goalscoring for us has covered a 13 year span now, that's got to be some kind of record or not far off I'd have thought?
well , he missedBar the terrible first few decisions the ref was wearing sky blue! Cud easilt have sent doyle off minutes after swindon player went off

He left for the second time in 2013. Scored his first goal in 2002 so 11 years max if he scored in 2013.Mcsheffrey was similar i would guess
well , he missed
1. the first one on biamou ( looked a pen but apparently outside, so definite straight red)
2. The one on Nazon 2nd half (should have been a pen)
3. The one by Rod (they should have had the pen) - but he would have been lynched if he gave that after not giving the above 2
Doyle "manages" the refs at this level - so dont worry
and 7 minutes stoppage time!!
Watch the games in Europe etc - its usually 3 mins max, why do we always have 5,6 or 7
The 3 home games should be 9 points. Not looking for just 1 point in the other two games.
We need a minimum 2 points a game. And this is a chance to improve on our GD. I would be happy with 12 points.
On paper they should, but I would be amazed if we win all three,The 3 home games should be 9 points.
But isn't this the same as a few seasons ago? A great striker who isn't ours???Nazon. This kid is improving fast. Think we have found our striker. He is direct, quick, difficult to get off the ball, is hungry to score and can do things like he did last night. He is just a little raw and needs to be taught about his choices at times, particularly his shot at goal when clean through, had he thumped it with his left foot a certain goal. This kid will get us 15 to 20 goals.
Did anyone notice Swindon's goal was offside?
Nazon was tripped in the first half but it was outside the box.
Their penalty shout when their player took a strange dive to the ground probably cost them a penalty but not even sure it would have been anyway looking closely.
As I said before the season started, not getting promoted would be failure. Last night was a very good result and MR's must ensure he keeps the confidence in check not allowing them to get over confident.

Yep the only game I'm looking at is Crewe on SaturdayGlad I was wrong about the result. Not getting carried away though with "next 5 games" etc, One game at a time!
I appreciate it's nice to be on a high after a win and feeling optimistic for the future, and also feel we have turned a corner of taking things for granted in the past.
