Leicester helicopter crash puts football into perspective quite quickly doesn't it

Sad. Hope no casualties but that fire looks very bad

Just got home from the game after a early start. Absolutely buzzing!!!! First half we were fantastic, completely in control and i don't know about anyone else but I felt confident.

Second half was a different story but at FT we got the points. 5 on the bounce!! Can't believe we're not in the play offs places after that!!!

Autos has to be the aim

Pompey Barnsley Sunderland and pboro look the strongest teams in league

And we have won loss draw and yet to play vs them. Nothing to fear.

Like I said few days ago 10-15 wins in a row and we can relax come march time.

Completely getting carried away, love the optimism though! Of course it should be robins and the players goal but the fans need to be realistic.

Well done to all, we need to take a deep breath and give credit to Doncaster who went for it. They deserved a draw, got nothing and I am delighted with that.
We have to remember there are two teams out there and they had a go, they were on the front foot yet we saw the game out.
Fans look for the perfect game and this wasn't it.

To cheer us up a bit more. Sean McConville, one of Accy Stanley's better players picked up a booking, so I'm pretty sure he's banned for their game against us. Every little helps!

He didn't play against us at the Ricoh last year either. Didn't make too much difference!

Not really surprising he didn’t make much difference if he didn’t play.

In my defence I was always targeting promotion last year when many on here were saying top 10 would be a good season

Fair point - but he's a good player, so I'm still glad he's missing!!

Anything disrupting the opposition has to be good.

Subs didn’t work Jodi Jones is way off match sharpness after such a long lay off it’s expected fingers crossed he comes back the same player.
Click to expand...
Is it all to do with the subs or is it that they went full out in the second half for the win? Should we have continued to push forward looking for more goals after they had set up to push forward?

Yes Jones will need a bit of playing time to get to match fitness. Just like at the start of the season we had other players that needed it. We have gone from looking relegation candidates to looking at promotion if you have listened to many. Some of us said give it time and we will climb the table. But we were supposed to be mid table at best.

Unchanged team, high scoring game.

Definitely capable of winning but I've got a horrible feeling today will be the day Davies gets himself sent off.

Bit chilly out and we don't like that much either.

But I'll be positive - Davies won't get sent off and we'll win 3-2

Didn't even get a yellow and put in another excellent performance... you must be gutted

Not at all - delighted.

But he just has a tendency to stupidly retaliate to stuff on occasion and sooner or later a ref will spot it and he'll get sent off. Don't want him to but the fact is he does it.

We were missing him for most of the play-offs due to retrospective action. Willis seems to be the type of player who is never 100% fit and carrying a niggle of some description so while we can afford to miss one or the other of them occasionally with Hyam coming in after that I don't think the likes of Thompson, Williams etc are quite ready for a sustained run in the team yet.
