adamoafc Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Will say what I have just said on twitter. People laughed when I said Fane can play higher up the football pyramid but his performances have been outstanding. Not pretty but you need a player like him in every team. Decent training paying off and the extra sessions he is putting on for himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feared that we may tire in the closing stages but not so. Decent point against a decent team. Sets it up nicely for the Franchise...all together now ' You got no history...' How did you manage to watch it on Facebook? Take it someone live streams it? Can you give me a link to who? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say with 33 games to play, 99 points to play for, the way we are playing and if Wellens gets the job then I wouldn’t say 9 or 10 points to finish top 6 is insurmountable really in the greater scheme of things.

League one forever Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I’m really starting to think we could do something this year. What we’re doing is very impressive, the performances are very consistent. Which if it carries on the league position will take care of itself. Been on Bradfords forum and there very complimentary, (which is unusual as fans are generally one eyed.) Saying we’re in a false position, really decent side. McCall saying positive things as well. I can’t remember the last time I fancied us no matter who we were playing. Even if we finish top 10, how good is it to genuinely think we’ve got at least a chance this year!? Happy days. * * (I await the enivatable off the field self inflicted drama) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeLatics Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Really good game & cracking atmosphere. Goal was a fantastic pass & finish - so nice having strikers you know will put those chances away! Fane excellent winning the ball, Clarke outstanding in defence as always. Hoping against hope for RW to get the job tomorrow, I really think we've got something resembling a team there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Fane had a good game but that was Peter Clarkes best game in a long time, had Wyke in his back pocket and bullied him out of the game, he was responsible for several crucial blocks as well as marshaling a very organised defence.

Yeah agree, one minuite im thinking he's a top player and love him cos he's made a last ditch tackle that no one else would make and driven it all the way forward. But then he just gets to the passing stage he looks like he's got a hot potatoe at his feet. Not to sure if he is able to progress to a higher level. But I love the fact he wanted to prove himself here, love the fact he is working hard with extra sessions, and his performances have been really good lately. Happy for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robboman Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Just looked at the tables back to the 2010 season. Reckon we’d need 60 points out of the remaining 99 available for a play off spot 1.8ish points per match. 20 wins out of 33. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0ndl1ne Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Even though Byrne had a very quiet game tonight, I still want him or Gardner on the pitch at all times. I did not feel comfortable with a midfield trio of Fane, Omrani and Flynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a presence about him. Edited October 18, 2017 by L1onheartNew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewBlue Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) Thinking back to it, the number of blocks Clarke made in front of our goal was just immense. Must've been at least 10 over the course of the match. The reason Fane is doing better is because teams are going after Byrne, allowing Fane more time on the ball. Those simple balls are even more simple now. In some ways I was disappointed that he didn't drive forward more often, despite having a cracking game breaking up play. That's the reason he won't play at the level above. We have so many outlets as well in Nepo, Gardner, Byrne, Doyle and Davies who are all very different but are all a real threat. For me, with a bit more solidity at the back we're easily a playoff side. We were better than Bradford last night, and if you can say that I reckon you're in with a good chance of being in the top quarter of sides in the division...

Clarke has improved dramatically since Gerrard was dropped, hate to sound like a JS basher but i'm afraid he had his head up ariss playing Gerrard/clarke together.
