Capt. Pants 5,008 Posted April 9 Nah we would have taken 4 pts from Ipswich and Sheff Wed and being 5 pts ahead of Coventry. Sheff Wed gave us more problems than Ipswich, who wouldn't have scored had they been still been playing now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrdi 411 Posted April 9 Our season won’t be decided nor defined by the result tonight. The game management which cost us 2 points tonight has however been an Achilles for us repeatedly. Onwards & sideways! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy 3,471 Posted April 10 (edited) Could be an interesting last day! If Covvy win their game in hand and are within two points we’re going to Brum……would they throw the game to keep local rivals out the top six?😉⚽️ Edited April 10 by Indy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midlands Yellow 4,682 Posted April 10 (edited) Hedge the bet slightly that we fail. I think we’ll be fine but just do a cover. Avoid defeat at Preston and that might wrap it up. Edited April 10 by Midlands Yellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can’t remember what I pledged now at the start of this season! 😂😂😂 It won’t come to £30 for either of us. I’ll have to find the season one when I get home. I know I’ve got a quid for every 5/6 and I think £2 for every PUP canary challenge that finishes above PUPnutty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GodlyOtsemobor 2,830 Posted April 10 Nah, we'd have taken these 4 points if they came from a draw vs scum and a win at Wednesday. It's the dropping a 2 goal lead again that is the main gripe. But hey, the other team is allowed to change things to get something from a game too. 4 points is fine. We're still very much in control of our destiny and I still think we'll end up 5th.

Can’t blame Wagner for players not taking clear cut chances. Both Stacey and Sara should have put the game to bed in the second half after the subs were made.

Both Stacey and Sara should have put the game to bed in the second half after the subs were made. After the game Wagner said the substitution of Sargent was tactical and not a fitness issue and what on earth was the substitution of bringing on Duffy all about in the 89th minute when the damage had been done. It should have happened once we conceded the first goal. Ten away games this season in which we have taken the lead have resulted in 24 dropped points. The big picture is that some questionable tactics and substitutions have caused that. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulfotto 798 Posted April 10 I think after last night is going to the last day and for us to not rely on results elsewhere we’ll need to win 3 out of the last 4 meaning we’ll have to win an away game!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I agree with that and the rate we’ve crumbled when in front is appalling but I believe the players on the pitch have to hold a lot of the responsibility for Tuesday night. The two chances I’ve mentioned were big chances that should have been taken and had they have been no one is questioning the sub of Sargent, we’re then just happy he’s rested for the next game.

Addick/Canary 162 Posted April 10 Well, Coventry are at home to Hull on the 24th April, so one or both of them might be out of the picture after that. Hopefully. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Besthorpe-48 114 Posted April 10 None of these things. Currently the best of the rest will get to 71 points on the basis if their previous 42/41:games. Which means 6 points from 4 games as some poster predicted recently will get us to 74 with 2 points to spare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
