[Marxo]

Oh well, we're getting used to it, at least we're 7 points clear of the drop zone.

 

[Wilko]

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Massive game on Tuesday , anything less than 3 points and the brown trousers will come back out of the wardrobe.

 

[neilbard]

what do you mean by fumble m8?

Palmed the ball into net at near post!

 

[sydney]

Sad to say it but overall a very poor collection of players! Just not good enough!

wolves are one of the better teams on form at present.....to beat them would have been great for the points and for confidence but **** me dead we go and conceed within minutes of scoring .....there is something fundamentally wrong with a team that consistently gets pegged back within minutes of scoring .....for **** sake....!!

Just keep ticking the points over. CH will be learning lots about his squad

 

[Peteinblack]

Just wanna get this season over with; clear out the dead wood and sign some better players this summer and have a genuine top 10 team for August.

At least this summer we'll have a manager in place from the start, and no Burke either.

I'm fed-up with our inconsistency and overall lack of quality this season, but am more optimistic that we'll have a much better team next season.

 

[neilbard]

Get shot of Stockdale!!!

Well, I suppose a point a game would drag us over the line. Rather have a couple of wins though - calm the nerves a bit (and crucially avoiding having to go to Middlesbrough on the last day needing a result!)

Sounds quite exciting.

Out of our 9 remaining games we have winnable games at Millwall, Rotherham and Wigan, and Hudds at home. I'd be surprised if we don't get the 5-6 points needed from those games alone. And we'll probably pick up unexpected points from the other 5 as well.

Today was a decent result. We're still 7 clear with only 9 to play, and Wigan won't get to play Rotherham every week.

But it was 9 points clear at 3.00 this afternoon

Glad it's over, bar the first half of the first half I thought it was a piss poor game.
Blaming stockdale is harsh, kept us in it and the cross should never have come in.
And when did we go back to load moans when we use the keeper, nothing wrong with keeping the ball especially when the front man can't hold the ball up

With our negative away tactics I'll be surprised if we win away again this season...Can see us biting a few nails come the end of the season.

This bloke on the phone-in is a goodun. May not renew because we are playing with 3 full backs and 4 midfielders and it does not seem like football to him! Where are all these fit, attacking players we have available then? It's his opinion I suppose, but I am not sure where he expects CH to make changes? That is pretty much our best, fit team out on the field today.

Except we seem to struggle against poorer teams; the ones we ought, at least on paper, to win. We beat top-of the table Derby, but lost against bottom-of-the-table Blackpool in January.

We've been so inconsistent this season, that I no longer think, 'We should win this game, because we're playing a struggling team'.

Not sure about best possible team. As much as I like Stephens he is not and never will be a left winger and cms over O'Grady is not a good move in my book.

But if Wigan had lost, Rotherham would be above us

Too bl**dy exciting!
