kevinhectoring Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Was reassuring to have Fozzie and Curtis at the back. Overall I think we benefit having their experience on the pitch. Hope Curtis has an ice bath before getting on the coach Also hope PW continues with Sibley playing high. He didn’t have a great game but he needs a proper chance and I think he could score some vital goals in the next 3 games Miggins, JPRamFan, Adslegend and 10 others 9 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure what it achieves personally. But am a bit more optimistic for Saturday! It means, a bit like when Collins plays, we are effectively playing with 10 men. Best thing about tonight that (as has been previously seen) without Collins we can and do play football. Edited April 18, 2023 by RoyMac5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad. Or long ball when pressured into it by the opposition, and only away from home. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked far more up for it and deserved the win I thought. Someone else really needs to help DMcG out though on the goals front. I was worried that the long coach journey back might affect us but have just heard that the EFL business plan dictates that we travel back by boat, so that’s that worry out of the way. 🐏 Skateboard whilst wearing roller boots was what I last heard the Bamfords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a change from having it done to us! Like BramcoteRam84 I was eased that we played football, and kept the long ball count down. Both sides we steady in the first half, and I am convinced that Warne sent the wrong Derby County team out fir the second half because we started the half really well, on the front foot and at tempo. It seemed so obvious that Hourihane would roll the ball to change the angle for Didzy’s shot, but it still caught Exeter out. And apart from the goals, I though Roberts was in with a shout for man of the match. He played really well, and constantly wormed his way past two or three men at a time, while overcoming their attempts at WWF, but MIM could only go to our cheat code! And well done to the ref - you had a good game, so get ready for your P45 in the morning! Night all, and safe journey to all you heroes who made the journey to support the lads! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Agree but Dave - you’re going soft on the ref I think!! He was good on the whole but he lost the plot at the end, some poor decisions didn’t do anything when Wildsmith got kicked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dava75 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 So thats us unbeaten in the last 4 ….nice timing 2 wins and 2 draws from 1 home and 3 away games. At any other point in the season that would be viewed very positively. What a difference a win makes. And yes I also know it’s a just a bunch of carefully selected stats just to suit my post and my mood!! 🐏🥳 SKRam, Carnero, DiggerB and 2 others 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 8 points from 4 games is indeed a good return, and it could have been 12. Now we need to beat Burton Albion which I think we’ve only done once in 5 league games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played plenty of poor long balls forward in home games we were losing. I didn't say we won because they had a weakened side, but they did have a weakened side as was commented on before the game.

Now we need to beat Burton Albion which I think we’ve only done once in 5 league games. As awful as we think we are, Derby were the only team out of Sheff wed, Ipswich, Barnsley, Bolton, Peterborough, Wycombe and Portsmouth, who had more shots on target than the opposition tonight. Also, if 2 refs had done their jobs properly on Saturday, we would be 5 points clear of Bolton now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a gust of wind near the bank and he feigned it pushing him over as well to the big bank-was quite funny Hope he cuts it out but they did do the dark arts and game management well tonight. Not sure I liked Knight swearing at the ball boy though in the first half, that seemed bang out of order, he couldn't be over 15 at most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
