The last time they had that many in the home ends before that will have included about 1000 of ours. Tinpot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehobbit Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Still amazes me that people think there is a chance of a play off push. That's gone after two very poor performances when we had a slim chance of sneaking in there. AS someone else has said loosing Lyden and Sturridge and not getting good solid replacements has cost us.This season we lost to both Macc and more recently Morecambe who are both rubbish. Nothing but hard working cloggers and they beat us and easily. We are paying for poor recruitment in the summer - 4 forwards in Cog, Baxter, Sturridge and Lang. 2 of the 4 we didn't own and there was always a chance one would be recalled, injured or just not score many. We are now left at at crucial point on the season barely able to muster a forward line. Cog up front on his own is a horror show. Sylla hasn't impressed and its still early days for him but we certainly haven't dominated midfield when he has played. The two more recent loan signings in Jan are baffling. Whats the point of signing two lads who can't play a part of weeks? Surely we could have found adequate replacements for areas of the team we were weaker in - do we really need another left back? After Stotts performance midweek maybe we do but for Scholes to say it's difficult for the Forrest loanee to get game time cause we have 3 or 4 left backs is really really odd. Surely he's there to try and improve us not just make up numbers we have a big squad as it is. We will do well to get a draw - fed up of the last months at latics. lingering managerial appointments, poor recruitment and performances have gone backwards. Hoping we can snatch a draw today - if we continue were we have left off in the last two games could see us going on a really poor run as the season collapses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win today and we could be within 3 points of the play-offs with 12 games to go. It's not just one team for one spot either, there's three places at least up for grabs. We could easily win 8 of our last 12 which would see us finish in the top 7. We could also easily lose 8 of those next 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could also easily lose 8 of those next 12. I admire the optimism, but we have lost our best players - don't have strength in depth - have a rookie manager - and are team lacking in form and confidence. Even if we snatch a win today we haven't been consistent enough to think we might suddenly hit a long run of form. Hoping for a win but looking at how well Bury are doing its going to be a big ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today will be a tough game for sure. It’s not the end of the world (or the season) if we lose though.
