Matt Morriss 69 Posted December 16, 2009 I was concerned that despite our form this season we have so far failed to beat the top 6 sides. Lost to Col U, drew with S''oton, drew with Charlton, lost to Leeds and MK Dons.According to Lambert Holt got assaulted and we should have had a free kick before the equaliser so we were an inept ref decision away from a 2-1 away win.This bodes well for any playoff match, which could very well be against S''oton. I want to see us beating the top 6 sides as well as the teams below as from 6-24 its much of a muchness, and teams are very poor. No wonder were winning. But im not getting excited about promotion until we start beating teams around us, cause if we cant we can forget promotion if we dont finish in the top 2. A Huddersfield win on saturday and I might, just might start to believe!Come on City!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gingerpele 0 Posted December 16, 2009 It could also be kinda good for mentaility...e.g there all angry they lost the game in that way, so go out and thrash Huddersfield... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,290 Posted December 16, 2009 We have been to St Mary''s twice now and arguably on both occasions been slightly unlucky not to win but have been a match for Saints on both occasions. If we get them in the playoffs we have nothing to fear as we know we can match them down there and I am confident we can beat them at home.For me if there is a silver lining its a slightly less congested fixture list and avoiding a double header agains MK Thugs which would have no doubt resulted in numerous injuries if the league game is anything to go by.

HazzaJet 252 Posted December 16, 2009 [quote user="Pablo Picarsole"]Concentrate on the league now?[/quote]Would be a good idea to - I must admit that this season all I''ve really been looking at is us getting promotion, rather than silverware Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southstand 0 Posted December 16, 2009 I agree that we need to beat the teams in the top 8 - the next 3 games might decide the automatic promotion spotsWe have Huddesfield , Millwall and WalsallCharlton have 2 from the top and Brentford awayIf we both win our games -We could still get an automatic spot but not so many games against the higher end teams remainIf City win their games and Charlton falter, then the odds on an automatic spot improve dramaticallyIf City fail over the 3 games - then its probably the paly offDon''t give me all that rubbish that nothing is won in Januarythere are too many bum sides in this division and they are not going to take major points of Leeds and CharltonHow many of you thought that City would not get relegated last season, right up to the Charlton game when the stats showed a different picture from 5 weeks away....On the Ball City - now 3 straight wins and over take Charlton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
