If there is a winner it will crank up the pressure on the other manager for sure. Last time we had 3 x 0-0's was under Stitch: 06/01/2001 - Port Vale (a) 01/01/2001 - Peterborough (a) 30/12/2000 - Walsall (h) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly to some I'd much rather be positive than negative, but I totally respect a negative opinion which is based on logic and reason. That wasn't one. This.

Do you honestly believe after that our next 5 games are winnable? over the last 5 games only Cheltenham and Northampton have picked up less points than us, unless Surridge is back very soon or Bunn has a serious rethink of his team selection, we are in trouble. 20 minutes ago, the_mighty_bosh said: We got 6 points in the last 5 games. Grimsby lost 4 in a row before winning last night. Macc have only picked up 4 points this season. I really can't make it any clearer than that.

However surely we should be in the top 10, possibly 5, in terms of budget? This is based purely on our gates in comparison to others. But our gates are not in the top five. Or indeed the top ten!!

Well can I suggest you make that clearer next time. Quite a few people didn't understand that is what you meant. For the record, my opinion is that we will get 10 points or more from our next 5 games. What is your take? 5? 6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzlatic Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Still haven't had the tonking the doom and gloomers are permanently predicting. We tend to either have a solid defence or a great keeping performance which is great news from a defensive point of view. But christ going forward we were really poor last night. There were a lot of offsides but I'm not sure what would have happened if we'd sprung the trap as neither Miller or O'Grady had the pace to exploit it. In fact, going off his body language, O'Grady doesn't look all that bothered about scoring. Lang should have gone up front last night to try and get in behind them. He started too deep and couldn't affect anything. Miller isn't fit enough. 3-5-2 is a must in my opinion. We don't have proper wingers so what is the point of 4-4-2? We have the players to fit a 3-5-2 and more importantly it would mean a place behind the front 2 for Baxter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b0ndl1ne Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Wait for it.......I’d go and try for Connor Wilkinson. Can’t catch at Gillingham. Easily better than what we’ve got apart from Surridge. Point is, to do well you should have players that would strengthen other teams. Surridge aside there isn’t anyone in our midfield or attack that the likes of Lincoln would want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
