nope, don't get it. 2nd half was very similar to 1st half and you weren't happy with that at all.

so you agree it was a good performance ?.

Nick, as I always say, love this site and appreciate you running it, but you have to stop being so negative during a game. We won away and your happy with it, lets not complain about every miss placed pass #2736352

Fwlt like i watched a diff game to most on here today. To me it was a good solid away performance vs a decent enough team and we made alot of chances
Click to expand...

spot on. text book away performance that if someone did to us at the ricoh what we did today they would be saying "they sat back and defended what they had and waited for that one chance and took it"

What are you on about? I am not sure you understand when you come flying in after results referring back to comments made when we weren't the best during the game.

The second half with Biamou and Reid we were about 15 yards further up the pitch, Biamou was winning most things and taking the ball off the defenders and we created much more.

I said I was happy with the result, we won? I wasn't happy about certain things during the game like shit corners, shit throw ins, shit passes etc.

Flying in ?, I was on this thread the whole game.

Football is an emotional game. People don't always give rational opinions during or just after a game.

Yes, because you are trying to refer back to comments made in the first half when it was different. The game then progressed and changes were made and we were much more attacking, hence people's comments changed.

What next, are you going to look at my comments after we lost to Yeovil and bring them up after we win a game?

I'm not giving anybody verbals, just confused why somebody would take my comments at half time when we weren't playing very well and then use them at full time when we improved and the game changed.

come on....all your posts in 2nd half before the goal were negative as well apart from 2.

It perhaps my issue. Not been on the match day thread much for past couple of games as I didn't think it was the same as the game I was watching.

I'll take it as my issue and step away on match days from now on for a while.

As I say, love this site, just don't get why match days threads are so negative

Ah, so because I pointed out actual things that happened during the game? The shit throw ins, the shit corners, the shit crosses.

Just because we scored another and won it doesn't mean everything else didn't happen does it?

If we get into the playoffs does it mean we didn't lose 6-2 to Yeovil?

Was I making the things up I was saying were happening?

Nick, posting things that happen is clearly fine and more than welcome

"why don't we shoot, story of the season, no idea what they do in training, Hollywood pass 535437 etc" isn't what happened, its being negative.

As I say, I'll call it my issue and walk away from match day threads for a while

Was I wrong? Did somebody not have chance to shoot? Did mcdonald not try silly passes that came straight back to us? Were our throw ins fantastic? Were our corners very good? Have we not struggled to break teams a bit like crawley down all season?

I can say we weren't very good but still be happy we won.

Some people just don't like negativity, it's like glass half-full or half-empty. Some people will say "how did he miss that? He should have scored", other people will say "unlucky, good effort". A very negative person will say "He's a shit striker". People's differences is what makes life interesting, so just accept the differences and move on.

Well it's playoffs at best for us unless Wycombe implode but they have a decent run in.
It's the best way to go up, through playoffs

Not many I think

They play to their strengths and despite being unconventional have a centre forward who is a nightmare for defenders.

Anyhow. Great three points today. Doesn’t matter how ugly it was or how many individual errors there were today we got three points and right now that’s all that matters.

Big game Friday and I’m looking forward to it. Don’t care if we play awful, McNaulty fails another overhead kick, Burge kicks it into touch, JCH looks lacklustre and wins nothing in the air, how pedestrian Kelly is etc. all that matters is the points. I’d be delighted if we could win pretty and everyone deserves to be man of the match but I ain’t going to lose any sleep if that doesn’t happen so long as we get enough points to make the playoffs. Nothing else matters at this stage.

In my opinion, yes, you were. It was a very competent performance and a game we fully deserved to win. We were the better team for at least 70 mins of the game
