I just don't see where the goals are gonna come from tbh...

My nerves can't take 6 months of being top. I'd rather we sneak in last day.

Agreed, it's hard enough when we're defending a lead for 10 minutes.

We need to pull ahead and get a gap between 3rd place to ease the nerves

 

[Astute]

So we trust the manager, but not the player he trusts.

There must be so many factors TM takes into account before choosing the starting 11 (including the physical condition of each player) that we can’t possibly know. He’s not done too badly so far.

That was a joke reply to another post......didn't you notice the :facepalm:

Here was my earlier post

Fortune to have a good game today. They have a dodgy defence. He will use his size and experience to hold the ball up and set up Murphy, Job and Vincelot.

I believe teams have a lot of problems when they try to sit on a game when they're up. Always like to see attacking stuff instead of defending. No one likes to defend. It just invites trouble.

I find it funny reading the absolute doom and gloom when we're losing and then come back when we're winning and see the positive optimism. I'm not taking the piss because it's exactly how I feel. I am still not sure that we'll win though, a lot depends on Mowbray's attitude now. I say attack and push for more....

Me too

 

[skybluefred]

Attack is the best form of defence.

My thoughts before the game; just listen to CWR And to think I followed that up with 'a 3-1 city win'. What a contradiction But one of them had to happen I guess

Even funnier is the doom and gloom from people who predicted we would be mid table at best this season and are now not happy when we don't win every game

You're not curly and you look like Oggy. I'd still take a point, (but now want the win). I'm buying a half season ticket next week (having first done the match package thing). I think anything pointwise during this gamme will be a real positive (ashamed to say, I didn't think we would come away with anything today) COME ON CITY !!

Sure there is further away. Is Blackpool further? I pass Blackpool after over an hour of driving on my way to Coventry

 

[skybluenewman]

Come on Bury. Top of the league if they can score

Got to agree with this.

 

[torchomatic]

another couple would be nice.

I was predicting mid table at start of season and now hoping (I think realistically) for top 6 and dreaming (it's more than just a fantasy) of top 2. What has impressed me is the style of play and the attitude of the team. I have enjoyed the football immensely.
I've never been happy when we haven't won but am philosophical and in the past resigned. Our defenders and keeper(s) still leave a lot to be desired but I'm enjoying the moment...its been a long long time since my team have been anything more than mid to lower end material

1-3 Fortune

 

[sw88]

3-1 Fortune gets into a rebound after Jones saves a shot from Ruben who cut inside on the right

 

[skyblueheaven]

3rd game in the league without Armstrong, on route to our third win.

 

[chiefdave]

Get in, time to get the old 5!

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

One more to go top. Even if they get a second.

 

[sw88]

Joint top. 1 more goal for us and we'll be top on GD

 

[Otis]

Us?

In TM we trust, in Fortune TM trusts.

We're lucky we have such good strength in depth.

But seriously though, game not over yet, I got bit on the arse during the Swindon match with a similar comment at 2-0.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Never doubted the Fortune

Adrian Durham should be happier this week on TalkSport. Peterborough are ahead and we've scored 3 goals with only 1 loanee on the pitch

He hasn't proved me wrong. I was the only one to say he would have a good game :guitar2:

Probably just bang on about how Murphy isn't our player.
