    Weren't Barnsley dreadful

    I didn't say they were poor, Astute. I said they were dreadful. And I quite clearly meant by that, that they had no intention whatsoever of making the game a proper contest or indeed of going out to try and win the game. They had 3 shots all game, Murphy had nothing to do for the 90 mins and...

    CWR Ian - Is he real 2

    Disagree somewhat. The commentators agreed that it was awful for about 60 mins or so, but then said that it then got a lot more exciting after that. Ian completely disagreed with that, but I thought as soon as we began to turn the screw and put them under pressure the game was a lot more...

    now we have a realistic chance of staying up

    It will for sure, but there is no way we are going to get 49 points. We are on 28 now. 49 would mean 6 wins and 3 draws from 13 games. That would have to be top of the table leader form. We need it to be around 42-43 to have any chance. I reckon we still need 5 wins and that is a vey tough...

    100th post

    The first 100th is fine. The 500th can be rather awkward and the 1,000th is so painful it is like giving birth to twins. After that it's a cakewalk.

    Survival? Sorry... but am I missing something

    Think the argument here, to sum it all up is; Had we played really well, people would be saying "Well if we play like that every week we have a really good chance of staying up." Rather than, as yesterday we didn't play well, particularly in the first half, when we could be saying, "Well if...

    English or British?

    English. Never considered myself to be particularly British. English, first, last and foremost.

    CWR Ian - Is he real 2

    I thought Platt played really well today. Some great flick-ons, he held the ball up well and nearly scored a goal that whisked past the post before he got his winner. Definitely MOTM for me.

    Weren't Barnsley dreadful

    No idea why they did that. They brought another forward on and yet still showed no attacking intent.

    Survival? Sorry... but am I missing something

    I was unhappy with our approcah to the game today. As Claus Jorgensen said on the CWR commentary, he expected us to be really up for it from the off and for us to give it a real go and to be at their throats. It simply didn't happen. We didn't wake up until about 65 mins. Happening too much...

    now we have a realistic chance of staying up

    We are now on 28. I think we will need 44, possibly 45. That means 16 or 17 more points. We something on our travels, cos we simply can't expect to win every home game.

    RATINGS FOLKS V Barnsley

    He did do some stuff well, but also made a number of mistakes. Which is why I only gave him 6. thought his performance was rather mixed.

    now we have a realistic chance of staying up

    Bristol away could be a crucial game for us. In fact, for both sides!

    Thing is, listening to that you would have thought we lost today.

    Isn't Baker Shit (Yet Again) Thread...

    Agree. thought he was worse than Sheff for sure. Just thought Mcsheffrey simply wasn't in the game, whereas Baker on the other hand just couldn't pass, cross or run.

    Platt

    'No, he was very, very average today and I wouldn't believe there is anyone out there who would make him MOTM.' Alan Numptynuts: CWR, 5.02 p.m, Saturday 25th February 2012. :facepalm: That guy doesn't half talk some bollocks.

    Don't understand these kinds of posts at all. We are all getting behind the team.

    Isn't Baker Shit (Yet Again) Thread...

    Just wish Bell could be bloody consistent too though. That is one thing Baker and Bell have in common. You never know what you are going to get with them and you only get one good game in 4 matches.

    Weren't Barnsley dreadful

    They were strong and physical and kept their shape well but absolutely dreadful in their approach to try and not lose.
