lake district canary 4,830 Posted October 17, 2020 Sorry, that's how I feel. Early season, a team trying to assimilate new players against a real team, so job done. Three points - all that matters. 7 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted October 17, 2020 Great result and hopefully a weight lifted! Lots of things to worry about in the performance but maybe this can be a shift in momentum. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 7,377 Posted October 17, 2020 It's a fair point though. For us at this stage of the season it's about making sure we're relatively close to the mixer so we can get on a push later on when all the newer players are more settled in. Very hard match against a very motivated side who are still very fresh and up for coming up, and they turned it into their kind of game for long periods. They could have fallen apart after conceding so early. They could have thought "not our day" when Stiepermann's goal was chalked off. They could have decided "let's not be too attacking and just get this point home" when Rotherham came on hard despite being reduced to ten, but they kept going and got a priceless win. Of course, they can play far better. But this game showed that sometimes you earn your own luck. This was a classic example. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 944 Posted October 17, 2020 Three points all that matters. Unless we lose and then the performance is all that matters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flying Dutchman 766 Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) I don't agree with the people who constantly moan, but it's a fcking discussion forum. Get off your high horse. You are genuinely worse than the people you're always having a go at. Edited October 17, 2020 by Flying Dutchman 6 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanthecanary 168 Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) While I agree that 3 points was much needed, I can't say that's all that matters but it is very important. The reaction after Derby was over the top as we certainly didn't deserve to lose that game. I didn't get carried after that loss and I'm not going to get carried away after one win where the opposition had a penalty saved, missed 2 sitters and still looked capable of beating us when down to 10 men. With confidence as low as it is, a win is a win but they need to play much better than that in every area of the pitch.

CDMullins 498 Posted October 17, 2020 Just think Lakey, this time last year you were 'I told you soing' after beating Man City Now its; Rotherham, Who missed a pen to lead 2-0 Where we needed a OG They had 10 men And we needed a penalty. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With confidence as low as it is, a win is a win but they need to play much better than that in every area of the pitch. This pretty much sums up my feelings. Rotherham are a very average team, but we gifted them a goal, conceded a ridiculous penalty and they missed an open goal; we could have been buried before half time. Yes, we missed chances, but that's part of the problem. There were positives in there, but there's still an awful lot to work on. We need to build on this now and win the two home games next week; tough trips to Brentford and Bristol City after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doomcaster 10 Posted October 17, 2020 Not a great performance from NCFC - as Farke must have known what Rotherham would try & do 3 points is great to gain - regardless if we were never in control of a poor team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clint 221 Posted October 17, 2020 We weren’t good but we did win. I’ll reserve judgement on whether this is turning point or not, until after the next few matches. Although it does feel rather nice to win in such circumstances! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
