Attack, Attack, Attack, Attack, fookin Attack :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
Sounds like a plan ;)
Seriously though, I’d sooner we did that and lost 3-2 than set up for a draw again and lose 1-0 to another fluke goal/poor ref decision/unlucky bounce….(Yootha to delete as he sees fit)
What happened to all the wonder kids Yootha was supposed to be bringing in from ManUre?
Not seen it but apparantly Billy Mckay scored a good one tonight. Must admit I had to look it up to confirm he is still on our books.
Gentlemen the damage is done over the summer months. With rest and maintenance in the summer the surface would be superb throughout the winter and even less pitch renovation work would be needed in the spring.
Playing two friendlies in two days against Man Utd & Liverpool wouldn’t have helped then.[/quote]
We should have played Southport instead for the sake of the pitch.
They could even have brought some spare sand with them B)
Lodgers postpone their match to keep the pitch better.
Results couldn’t have gone better tonight.
We play a poor team tomorrow.
We are at home tomorrow.
So play to win.They’re 6 points ahead of us from the same games played…so that makes us? :S
I know what you’re saying though Donny…home game, got to go all guns blazing for a win. Well, you or I would, Yootha on the other hand :ohmy:
Very hard in this division to predict at this stage where the safety line will be.
I reckon 50 points. It could be a bit less but I think that’s optimistic.
QPR’s gone, so out of Forest, Blackburn and Bristol C I think we simply must get a minimum of 6 points. Especially if Burton beat Blackburn on Friday….
If Yootha isn’t panicking yet, perhaps he dosn’t realise how bad the situation now is :ohmy:
Looking at the fixtures, after the Bristol C game, with the exception of Rotherham at home, it’s hard to see another win the way we are the moment.
Could be bad news for us this. If Blackburn get those 2 or 3 results that new bosses normally generate then we could find ourselves behind the 8-ball. Especially if Joyce carries on playing for a draw every week.Agreed it’s likely to be bad news for us. I fancy Burton to go down so Blackburn (and may Bristol City if they lose on Weds) are the main threat.
No doubt Blackburn fans will be glad to see the back of Coyle. His tactical prowess makes Steve Kean look like Bill Shankly…well not quite
I agree. We have no width and no variety. We must have a dozen midfielders of the same type. Final ball is shocking. Why no Obertan today?Probably because we didn’t have a game today…
Sorry Rolo..just a bit irritated tonight can’t think why :lol:
I don’t disagree though we need to be far more attacking…get the ball in the box enough times and see what happens
As ever at this stage of the season very difficult to say how many points are needed for safety. Peterborough went down with 54 that season when the bottom half was very close.
Unless Rotherham pull off a miracle, I reckon 45 could do it, but must aim for 50 min.
20 points from 14 games even Yootha will realise a draw a game isn’t enough. 5 or 6 wins minimum…can we get these?
qpr – draw
FOREST – win
blackburn – draw
birmingham – draw
BRISTOL C – win
VILLA – lose
newcastle – lose
ipswich – lose – Joyce removed “by mutual consent”
ROTHERHAM – win
BARNSLEY – lose
brighton – lose
CARDIFF – win
reading – draw
LEEDS – drawThat’s another 14 points to give 44. Probably just relegated, but who knows? :woohoo:
I’d just settle for it tasting like lager.On concourse now. Still Carling still £3.60 staff wearing Latics caps (a Yank thing)….
Also some portable ale servers in the middle of the concourse (Springfield) should reduce the queue at the interval!!
Oh and the Old Bill are everywhere lol
How much do you think a pint of lager will be tomorrow?
Was £3.60 so I’m expecting anything up to £4 :ohmy:
It won’t have gone down that’s for sure.
My heart and my head are saying different things.Heart says we can get 4…draw tonight and beat Nob End
Head says we will be lucky to get 2 draws.
Always trust the heart on Valentine’s day haha….bring on Nob End :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
My heart and my head are saying different things.
Heart says we can get 4…draw tonight and beat Nob End

I reckon about 47 points would be enough to survive and so therefore from our remaining 16 games even if we lost 7 of them, 6 wins and 3 draws would be enough, surely that is do-able right?
I still have a semblance of positivity but it wanes on a weekly basis !Basically 7 wins out of 16 to get us to 47 points.
That’s what Yootha needs to focus on, 7 WINS. Any 7 from 16 will do…starting tomorrow!!
FFS go for it. If we are going down then go down kicking and screaming. At the moment it looks like we’re going down with barely a wimper.
Play to win and we may. Play for a draw and we could get stung again like Saturday.
Let’s hope we have a winger on the field soon.Agreed. The time for playing for a draw, even away, is over. We must set up to win every game now starting tomorrow night. Not holding my breath though :ohmy:
If we go down, so be it. It meant 21 other teams were better than us over the season. But that’s carp and we know it. There is no excuse for us not being at least 6 places higher than we are now.
Said it before, but if we lose having really gone for it in a game, so be it. But Yootha seems happy to sleep walk us into League 1.
2 up front (or 1 playing off 1 if that’s too much for some to stomach). Get the ball in the box enough times something will happen. We might even get “lucky” for a change ;)
