Well we thought it was easy against Soton..as I indicated then they are vulnerable away, last evening highlighted it would be difficult against Watford and although intimated the draw was the most likely took the euphoric path and forcast a 4-0 win! Middsboro, a different story they are stronger away than Soton and we will be up against it Saturday. Points wise they are marginally better than Leeds as second best away record having only played 9 away. WHU top away team. If we add in the euphoric element and the luck element a draw will be exceptional. Last 2 games honestly, how have we done!!! RESULT WISE W1 D1, 4 goals on the sheet, here is our weakness...1 goal scored by Marv, an own goal and TWO DEFLECTIONS... OK the deflections may have gone in anyway!!! But clean cut goals just the one! BCFC 1-3 MIDDS Every team needs a bit of luck, every manager needs a bit of luck so lets hope on Saturday we remain lucky!
I'm excited by it - it's being shown on Fox Soccer channel here is the USA so I'll spend a couple of hours on the couch and will hopefully enjoy it as much as I did the Millwall game that was also shown live here. I agree that it will be tough and IMO the way to win is to not put out a defensive team - attack them from the off. Teams will definitely be wise to Albert now and we'll need Marv to win the 50/50s in the middle and KK to be the creative outlet to Maynard. I'm going for a 1-0 City win.
John fair play you are negative, a defective goal is a goal I don't care if someone falls over and hits it in with their nose it's still a goal. Be positive we beat the league leaders, first team this season to stop them scoring, then drew away to another team that is in form at the moment. I'm sure your Millen with all this negativity
have to agree with redordead there, to predict us loosing 3-1 with the form were in is a bit negative, just get behind the team john
Last 2 games honestly, how have we done!!! RESULT WISE W1 D1, 4 goals on the sheet, here is our weakness...1 goal scored by Marv, an own goal and TWO DEFLECTIONS... Not really worried about deflections or o.g.'s they all count exactly the same as 30yard screamers in the top corner.I'd be quite happy with another 2 this Saturday and maybe an og to top it off.
Bloody right!! a goal is a goal no matter how it crosses the line...........................except of course, palace's one a couple of years ago? Lol.
Borough will be extremely tough, but we managed a draw away at West Ham and a home win against the league leaders who have not failed to score in any game since April until they played us. I know football isnt played on paper, BUT 'on paper' the above 2 fixtures look tougher. Even Millwall away was a toughie - we inflicted only their second defeat of the season at the New Den. We have also shown that we can come back from 2-0 down without letting our heads drop. I know we are extremely unlikely to go the rest of the season without being beaten, but like I said before we have already embraced tougher challenges this season. The biggest threat to our success is ourselves - the 2 monsters being complacency and panic. If we can keep them both caged the league is ours!
