Boycie Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Let’s Royally rock this lot at their place. Hopefully we might have a new winger who can get a shot off on goal. Windsor important in Jan, we need to win. Comrade 86, angieram, Carl Sagan and 7 others 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Brilliant we have an immediate opportunity to bounce back and get back on track. Let's hope we take it. Presumably CBT will be on the bench. Does anyone need a rest after today? Warne singing Vickers' praises in the post-Lincoln interview and, after the clean sheet, he'll keep his shirt. After the Reading fans' pitch invasion the other day, there has to be chance this game will also see trouble and might yet end up being abandoned. I'm sure we always try, but we should aim to score early so we can be able to claim the three points if it is called off. Like getting ahead of the Duckworth-Lewis run-rate if rain threatens in cricket. SKRam and CBRammette 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kernow Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Win on Tuesday and we finish the night top of the league, that's guaranteed. There should be no bigger incentive than that. I know nothing, ariotofmyown, GlastoEls and 11 others 3 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game would be replayed wouldn’t it…don’t think you could have a situation where Reading lead 2-0, their fans get the game abandoned and then get the 3 points 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the integrity of the competition, and to avoid other clubs potentially being disadvantaged, I think the only scenario in which a replay (full or part) wouldn’t be ordered is if there was absolutely nothing riding on the result (a La the Blackpool game that was abandoned). Maybe if the innocent club were 3 or 4 goals up with only a matter of minutes to play could be another scenario.

I booked my hols for the end of May on the strength of that. I watched Pearson’s Wembley Winner in a bar on Majorca with a tear in my eye! 🐏 SKRam and CBRammette 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing how they've treated us in the past (some of it justified before we get accused of having a persecution complex), if it was abandoned after 16 minutes with Reading 1:0 up they'd probably award them the 3 points.

Rampant Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Vickers Ward Nelson Cashin Elder Bird Thompson Hourihane Wilson TJJ NML (Wildsmith, Smith, Bradley, Sibley, Robinson, Barkhuizen, Collins) Not keen on Ward at RB against stronger sides but prefer to see Wilson further forward. Thompson is excellent imo and we need an extra man centrally anyway. Lets see what TJJ can do as the #9. DiggerB and Caerphilly Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
