    This. Despite pre match ales the nerves will no doubt be palpable and feed through to the players. Fans will have to steady them, players need 100% backing.

    Carlisle sold out as well which is excellent more than a month before the game.

    That’s normal for the Orient game, sales will pick up after Easter, as long as we are still in contention.

    We head into the last round of fixtures, Pompey already champions and having a party at Lincoln who get the win they need to make the playoffs. We’re 2nd on 88pts, posh and Bolton on 87pts, we have a superior goal difference.
     
    Half time and we’re 0-1 down following a really nervy performance, fans in full voice trying to urge the team on but becoming nervous and agitated with the performance. But news comes through from London Road that it’s 1-1 and despite being behind we’re still going up.
    Into the second half and the fans find their voice again the team up their performance levels but the keeper is having a blinder, we equalise on 65 minutes, it’s still 1-1 at London Road. Time ticks onto 85 mins we’ve missed countless chances as Carlisle are hanging on trying to salvage something from a difficult season but then groans around the stadium, Bolton have scored and lead Posh 2-1, Bolton are going up. In the same moment a misplaced pass from Hourihane puts a Carlisle striker through on goal it’s curtains for our auto chances he rounds Wildsmith and shoots it’s going but who else but Cash gets there on the line to keep it out, the crowd roars again, we’re due a chunk of stoppage time due to Carlisle’s time wasting tactics, the board goes up, it’s 8 mins, the crowd roars again. It’s finished at London Road, Bolton have won. They think they’re up but they’re nervously waiting for our game to finish. 95 mins. We’ve thrown everything at Carlisle but the ball just won’t go in. We get a throw on the right hand side, Nelson for once goes short to Bird, he cuts inside plays the ball to the edge of the box Hourihane let’s the ball come across him evading the Carlisle player onto his left foot and with perfect technique he drills it into the bottom corner from 20 yards!!!
    Pandefuckingmonium ensues!! We’re up and the much maligned Hourihane has bookended his Derby career by scoring the first goal of the new era post administration and the goal to take us back to the Championship.

    I fear we are heading for another bad run , like the end of last season - with Gayle, Barks new found energy, Mendez ,Fozzie back etc i was confident of 1st or 2nd - now i just cant see where the goals are coming from - unless CBT can link with Collins and Washy.
    Soi predict we will win the play off final with Bird , Mendez, Galye, Barks all back for our special day.....

    We will bottle it but the other teams might do too meaning we still go up in 2nd.  Two more years of watching crap football either way.  Little to be excited about for me right now.

    Weston for the last 20 against tired legs would be my call. Will only work when we are playing on the break but he is much better at avoiding the offside trap than Waggy or Wash! And he can finish.

    SKRam reacted to Top Lino in Match Thread: vs Blackpool (h)   
    My main issue with Warne is that he does not seem willing to give young players a real chance. Weston and Brown must feel as though they will not get an opportunity as he would rather play an aging Waghorn ahead of them off the bench when we need a goal.

    Nearly but not quite. They're only 3 points outside of the playoffs with 7 game to play and a relatively easy run in. I'm sure they will be going for the win but I'd imagine they'd be reasonably happy with a draw.

    The thing that got me with the Bradley incident was as he was walking off having received the red card, a few of their players were high fiving each other as if to say great job getting him sent off. If felt shades of Ronaldo winking having got Rooney sent off in the 2006 World Cup, apart from of course the game yesterday was more important...
    Admittedly we didn't play well but I despised the total anti-football they played, apart from their great goal(!), especially in the second half with their players going down a ludicrous amount to break up the play with stoppages.
    The mascot annoyed me as well, getting involved with the players, and trying to wind up our fans right from pre kick off.
    The whole game was a shambles and it had the feel of Reading away as it was freezing and very windy, and we just didn't control the ball in the conditions or against such opposition.

    Not read through much of this thread, listened to Talksport first half and first 20 mins of second and then went for a walk as it was obviously going to be ‘one of those days’. Seen the highlights and should have been 2 or 3 up by HT but this s**t happens sometimes. 
    Irritated and disheartened yes BUT if we had the choice of taking only 3 points from the last two games, which many thought a distinct possibility then we’d have taken them from the Bolton game no problem key now is to beat Blackpool and take something from Pompy both of which is eminently doable COYR.

    Agreed, I'd just like referees to be as hard on clear play-acting as they are on 'provocation'.
    The Northants player beating the ground in 'anguish' from a nothing challenge summed their approach up. I can't recall the last time one of our players so extravagantly over-reacted like that and I'd hate it if it became a regular tactic of ours.

    So am over yesterday's travesty. We've had major injury issues and things just didn't go for us. Four wins out of five is OK. Next game is massive though, and we need a win to go into the Portsmouth game.

    SKRam reacted to Crewton in Match Thread: vs Northampton Town (a)   
    Yeah, it could be that he knew he was bang to rights (though since when did bothering to argue with a ref ever change red to yellow?), but I'd still like to know the severity of the contact, because the defender certainly looked about as injured as the rest of their players who went down clutching their faces, banging their fists on the floor in agony etc etc

    The name of this thread 😂 second in the league with highest goal difference and second highest scorers- if you can’t find some positives in that, then I dread to think what you’re like down the pub
