ram59 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 That Portsmouth result not only tightens things up, but shows that they're not invincible, with a number of points dropped recently to relegation threatened teams. Turk Thrust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chellaston Ram Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I agree but we made Peterborough look better by not pressing them. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariotofmyown Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 (edited) Portsmouth have just 5 points from last 5 games. Lost at Bristol Rovers and Cheltenham Drew at Exeter and home to Cheltenham Won home to Stevenage. There would be an apocolypse on here if we had that run of results. 2 points from 3 of the bottom 5. They are also yet to play Oxford yet due to postponements. Not looking too rosey for them, wonder if it's injury related? Edited January 7 by ariotofmyown https://forum.truebluearmy.com/showthread.php?tid=3749 a lot of usual moans, but one post lays out a fair few injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 More trouble reported in the household of Bolton’s right back. Apparently his wife decided she wanted to make pancakes so she bought a bag of flour. Said right back pointed out that they already had four bags in the cupboard so this was a waste of money. The atmosphere was already tense after she bought more Christmas lights because they were ‘in the sale’ when in his opinion they already had more than enough and this was an unnecessary expense. There have apparently been some very terse comments leading to an unwelcome frosty atmosphere. Not sure if this is true as the information I got wasn’t very detailed but it might be something that we could take advantage of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram59 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Bolton's draw today in the cup adds at least one more fixture to their list and they already have one more than we do. Hopefully, the extra fixtures will have an adverse affect on them. ariotofmyown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you see us beating Fleetwood and climbing level with Peteborough, whilst they are getting smashed 3-0 by Leeds, feels like we were better off.

It could be argued that our cup run cost us our play off place last season, Bird having a lengthy lay off after the 4th round match against West Ham coincided with our bad run. ariotofmyown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The really clever thing to do would be to put in a half arsed effort in every remaining cup match to focus on the league 👍 scout's dad, Mick Harford and TigerTedd 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthram Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Without diving into actual home and away form for all the teams, it looks like the best hope for today is damage limitation as none of our rivals seem to have too hard a game. Maybe Charlton can do us a favour and beat Peterborough. We'd then move up to third without even playing. 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
