dec666 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 (edited) Next two games are vital in us climbing up this table. Should win there on Tuesday night definitely. Edited October 26, 2013 by dec666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c.hill12 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Win on tuesday and 5 points from play offs and 5 from relegation. Very tight this league. Couple of wins or losses on the bounce makes a massive difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimeblue Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 If we could get 4 points from the next two games things would be looking a lot healthier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 (edited) It will be decided in the final third of the season it's about how much gas you have in the tank at around march we know this from our own experience. That's why I'm glad Johnson is rotating at this stage in the season so we are stronger going into the second half of the season. Not saying we are going to get the play offs far from it but if we keep everyone fresh then we have less chance of having the February meltdown. I'm sure this is the advice his dad will have passed onto him. Edited October 27, 2013 by GlossopLatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Stop. Dreaming. What's life without a dream? If you can't dream then we may aswell give up shut the club down and go home. Oh and I don't think we will reach the play offs but stranger things have happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philliggi Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I actually think this league is as wide spread as we have seen at this stage of the season for many a year. 2 or three games ago a four point gap emerged beteeen top and bottom and as you say there are ten points seperating the two zones already. Its not about the play offs this year its about progress. Next year is the one and i recon lj is building for that. Although k will say im looking forward to feb/march when all these paperthin squads start folding and we can call on our comparitively large squad for cover.

Although k will say im looking forward to feb/march when all these paperthin squads start folding and we can call on our comparitively large squad for cover. This is very true. This league is a lot better than last season. You can tell as the relegated teams from our league last season - Hartlepool, Portsmouth, Bury and Scunny - are average in League 2 and promoted teams - Doncaster, Yeovil and Bournemouth - are all bottom half of the Championship. 4 of the 6 teams that have come into our league this season - Rotherham, Wolves, Peterborough, Bradford - are in the Top 10 so there's been an injection of quality. That means that progression is relative to the standard this year. To get more points and a higher league position would be a more significant progression than it may seem on paper.

Ross2509 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Even if we don't get the play offs next season, it's about progression. I'm happy to give LJ as long as he wants/needs as long as we keep progressing. That's what makes a club successful, well especially if they are on a low budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Nothing wrong with dreaming, except for when stupid people somehow then convert said dream into a minimum expectation and start throwing their toys out when it doesn't materialise.

Break The Silence Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 0-1 defeat written all over it and we all know it If we go there and have a right good go at them then we're in with every chance of bringing home the points. If LJ has another brain fart and goes all negative, especially after how well we played on Saturday, then we'll get absolutely nowt. I love a pre-game visit to Hooters but i'd much prefer it if that wasn't the highlight of the trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Villains Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Stop. Dreaming. once I dreamt that Ricky Holden was bumming Mel Machin shouting "this is how it feels like Mel, this is how it feeeeeeeels". Neil Pointon was there too, looking on. i've no idea what all that was about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
