They've done well but they look shot now, especially with all their injuries. I'm just hoping they raise their game for the 'back of beyond derby' at home to Hull.
that Oxford result really boosted me just narking we couldn’t take full advantage last week Lincoln look shot & what I’ve seen of Peterborough they’re gan the same way hopefully our squad depth will have us second at the very least
I believe last weeks result will ease the pressure on us. If we’d won the wins in a row would have been a weight around our necks. A draw means we start again (as it happens we lost no ground on anyone so an away point was - as always - useful) and can start a new run of wins in a row (as we start to meet our nearest rivals) and not have the monkey on our back. In my opinion trying to maintain an unbeaten run is a lot less pressure than trying to maintain a run of victories.
Lincoln was a good result imo, they're around the top for good reason. After Wembley you also expect a dip ... ... if that's as bad as it gets I'll be quite happy.
Just have to keep doing as we have been , we are the team in form despite our injuries , the other teams could not have coped in the way we have due to the size of our squad and the versatility of our players . Keep it going lads and we should be fine though we have tougher games coming up .
Hopefully this week of having no midweek game would've done us the world of good with fresh legs and the players raring to go today. LJ would've had a chance to go over a few things in more detail in training and set us up for another run of wins
Yes, Blackpool as we saw earlier in the week are an in form team... and Hull and Peterborough to come also... so yes some tough 6 pointers in the few games remaining. After the draw with Lincoln.. (thanks to Burge ?)... We have to regain focus today.. I expect Bristol Rovers, who are the underdogs, to come out all guns blazing as they feel they have nowt to lose, in a game nobody even their own supporters expect to win. It will be interesting to see the team sheet at 2.00pm or an itk to give a sneak preview?
Peterborough have had nowhere near the injury problems we have yet their form is dreadful, one win in March and that against Portsmouth who'd just sacked their manager. They've conceded 3 goals in three of those matches and were lucky not to lose to Rochdale. It's hard to regain momentum especially when you know there's always a chance the defence will let you down. Accrington, 12, has only lost two more games than Peterborough, 10, so this game is really open today.
I watched their game against Portsmouth and thought both teams were awful. We should be beating Peterborough. I’d fancy them to lose at least a couple more.
Some bad news lads, just found out our (Gills) CB Cundy is out injured, wish us luck, we are going to need it, if we are to beat Hull!
Anyone watching the holland v latvia game? Sky sports football. Female ref doing a great job. I love good refereeing decisions and hope VAR ****s of back to the hole from whence it came.
Cheers mate. Yeah we did hit the post then final whistle went. My nerves in tatters after watching that. We just went all out for the win from the start, only way you can defend against them. They missed a few sitters it must be said.
