Could be the last time I see yok and Hamer in a city shirt in the flesh it’s why I stayed so long to applaud
At home at least, we did the sameCould be the last time I see yok and Hamer in a city shirt in the flesh it’s why I stayed so long to applaud
Will people really be upset if we don’t go up?
It's actually how I'm trying to keeping myself calm, I keep telling myself that to be where we are from where we were even just a few months ago is a fantastic achievement, whatever happens from here on.
A bit, but only because I don’t know when the next time we’ll get this good an opportunity to.Will people really be upset if we don’t go up?
Because bidwell is fine and dabo is dreadfulWatched the match again with my tick list, never saw godden do a header, shoot, hold the ball up, run with the ball. Tackle, intercept. What does he do.
Bidwell is no cuffy, too stationary. But did play better than he normally does.
Robins used dabo to replace maatsen on the left, to give Todd evens right wing back , but will not use dabo for bidwell.why
He mentioned sheaf not coming on due to the pace of the game. Sounds like he isnt as close to fitness as we were led to beleiveNo city subs apart from allen are match fit to play 90 minutes. Robin does does not do wise substitutions
No, well not me for now.Will people really be upset if we don’t go up?
Let's hope that Eccles is fit (as well as Hamer). He did go straight offHe mentioned sheaf not coming on due to the pace of the game. Sounds like he isnt as close to fitness as we were led to beleive
Not really. It's more the fear of the summer when we lose Vik and probably Hamer while also have a big clear out.
We wouldn't be conserving energy.We were very cautious, reserved and certainly seemed to sit back yesterday, but I think it was all intentional. While not actively slowing the play down, we didn’t rush into things at all (other than Vik occasionally who wasn’t following the plan!). We also let them have the ball a lot, at times they were at walking pace or stood still and we didn’t press. It was strange to see, but so uniform that it must be a tactic as opposed to nerves or other reasons.
So MR is either conserving energy, seeing what Boro have when they have time/possession, letting them expend themselves or a combination of all.
Either way I expect a different performance on Wednesday and wouldn’t be surprised to see the box.
I think we’ll sit deep ish for the first 20 or so, then we’ll start to play or at least effectively counter. I’d be keen to see us press at times and while offensively very good, they look vulnerable at the back.
This - it’d be fine if we were continuing to build on what we have but unfortunately it’s not going to happen.Not really. It's more the fear of the summer when we lose Vik and probably Hamer while also have a big clear out.
YES having got this close want to get the prize.Although you hope you will push on next season things could change .Ask Huddersfield and MK dons.We will lose Vic and Gus and you've got to hope there replacements are good enough and fit in quickly plus other incoming players.Lets get the job done WednesdayWill people really be upset if we don’t go up?
Humphhh a foal, you say, ain’t life great?Cuffy reminds me of a foal finding its feet for the first time when he runs with the ball. Sometimes that comes off for him Sometimes not. It was similar with gyok at one point, the defence had no idea what he was doing as he didn't he's slightly more predictable over the last part of the season.
Middlesbrough mate I went with was very impressed with Cuffy.
Perhaps he’d like to swap him for Jones
An inexpensive puntWhats the point of Maguire. He hardly makes me bench and then when he does doesn't even get on.
Whats the point of Maguire. He hardly makes me bench and then when he does doesn't even get on.
You won’t be saying that when he comes on last minute Wednesday and takes the greatest pen you’ve ever seen to send us to Wembley.
Good luck mate!!Well i thought that was tense!!
Firstly, i cannot believe we kept a clean sheet, i cant recall the last time we did or the last time that our defence was better than our attack. It was a poor game and the longer it went on the more likely a 0-0 was going to be played out.
I would have snapped your hands off for a draw before kick off as i did fear the worst. It is nicely in the balance and i really can see it going either way (please not extra time and penalties)
We desperately need Howson and Ramsey back - whilst Mowatt probably had one of his better games we are much slower with him and Hackney.
Still bricking it and im expected to get work done today, tomorrow and Wednesday. No chance, too busy considering every formation, tactic and watching motivational you tube clips from games in our history to convince me we will do it.
