If you want to be negative fuck off into your own little corner and cry yourselves to sleep there, don't be on here trying to bring the rest of us down

When we were 1-1 it felt very much like we were throwing it away and that’s the time being discussed.

I think Shipley should come back in now. He offers energy.

I’m wondering if he bought Pask on for league minutes ready to replace Dabo on Tuesday who I thought looked leggy today.

Let’s be honest if we manage to somehow beat Portsmouth - and it’s probably going to be a bakayoko goal off the bench and it hits the back of his head in the 93rd minute - then we might well

Robins is Ian Botham in his last World Cup and today clinches it for me

Never ‘called for the taxi’.

You forget- the criteria for if it’s a ‘good result’ is that we must score at least 3 goals, everything else is garbage.

tbf, if we don't go up, one of the results to point to will have been failing to finish off a bunch of teenagers at Bolton. If we'd compounded that by failing to win the return at home, then it'd have just accentuated that.

This result shows trends of our season, both good and bad. A troubling inability to finish off the worse teams as we should, but a determination not to give up that sees a fair few late goals.

So tight at the top. Lots of posts on here a month ago were saying Oxford were certs to go up through the autos and now they're down in 10th. Big win for us today.

I think it’s probably for the best that we concede the game against Portsmouth. After all we haven’t got a fuckingchance and it’s not really a different game to today.

I think his passing was a bit sloppy towards the end due to tired legs. He deserves a rest and I’d hate for him to burn out because he’s a key player.

Poor performance, particularly 2nd half, but we won.
Isn't that something we've all eulogiesed about good teams doing over the years?

I think so too. I’ve been saying all season that we are chokers, and that Robins is just lucky. Bolton are essentially a pub team and the fact we didn’t score 5 just proves how poor we are.

Even when you're doing well there are things you can improve on. Scoring more goals is something we need to improve. Portsmouth not big scorers either to be fair. They've only scored 3 more than us. Peterborough have scored 20 more goals than us.

Peterborough have played 3 more games give us a chance

No, we’re having an incredible season. I still can’t let go of the club we’ve been for so long though. If we did do a Cov after that it would kill me.

Not making excuses but all three teams in our league who had big cup-ties in the week didn’t have the best of days today. Oxford who played really well against Newcastle and like us had extra time got a right bollocking today. Makes our late hard earned victory even sweeter.

It is- it shows the kind of insight and observation that is sadly lacking in most of the doom monger ‘football experts’ on here.

most of whom even wanted another big cup game just to make it worse.

No - it’s just a fear will we miss out as overall our forward options are poor and with a forward like we’ve had in this league in the past we’d be miles ahead by now. Imagine mcgoldrick or Clarke today - it would have been an avalanche - it is what it is and hopefully we will scramble over the line but don’t pretend with a striker the quality levels of OnHare and Walsh are we wouldn’t be a long way ahead now
Click to expand...
We do need a better striker than the ones we have. However to still be up there without that luxury shows how good the squad is overall. I think the mentality of the squad wins us games which is a good thing. We don’t give up
