Next 3 games. There’s 10 cup finals after that as well.

Yes spot on- we could lose the next 3 and still have a great chance of automatic promotion. They’re all equally as important as each other because if we win each one we are champions, and there would be nothing anyone could do about it.
The next three are really tough, but no more important.

So basically we win yet again, but people find a way to say we were somehow lucky and got “carved apart”. 30+ games in, when does it stop being about luck and start being about us having a great keeper and solid defence?

What are you on about? I said nothing about luck, just appraised today's performance and that it was the most vulnerable we've looked defensively in a while. Pretty much everyone watching and posting on here was saying the same thing, that it was nervy, that we didnt have our best game, that they had a number of chances.

Ffs you really aren't allowed to air any opinion on here anymore. It's becoming a cult. Robin's said we were pretty poor, he must be a heretic too.

He made one or two they did not rip through us at will. For most of the game they were kept well at arms length

I never said they ripped through us at will. I said they carved us open lot, far more than any other team over the last 7-8 games. Even Robin's said we were poor today. If we play/defend like that on Tuesday and Saturday we will come away with 0 points.

just like we did against Bolton and all the other games where we’ve been “poor” but come away with a win.

I think the issue is, is that if we provide similar opportunities to Rotherham or Sunderland as we did to Rochdale today we’ll end up paying the price. Marosi can’t get us out of trouble every time unfortunately!

Were you there? The pitch was awful. No excuse for the goal but lots of excuses for not playing as effectively as we have. Could easily have won 3-1

“Having said that, we looked fairly comfortable and we have got three points at a place which is difficult to come to.”
Can’t see him saying we struggled at the back throughout the game

I watched the game on ifollow. Could have easily won 3-1 and could have easily lost 3-1. It wasn't our best performance, I don't get what the issue is.

We were fucking amazing, absolutely dazzling, the other side had no chances and if their keeper hadn't been man of the match we would have won 10-0 easily.

No debate, no comment, no room for improvement, the real perfect performance, absolutely no point debating.....I'll leave you to it.

lol no you said robins had said we were poor. He didn’t. We panicked in the first half a couple of times and didn’t deal well with the long ball in the last 15 that’s all I meant. I’m sorry buddy

I agree with you tbh.

Could have been 4-2 city at half time

We struggled with the man mountain they threw on and then they went long ball.

Their goal was the bigger factor, knocked the confidence out of us quite a bit

We deserved the win, but just about

This is the point, making things up and telling lies about what Robins said to back up a point of view that suits your own view is stupid.

Another ugly game won and in the bag, that’s four on the bounce and in shite weather again too, win eight more we go up. Get the better weather back we get better, let’s enjoy the ride we don’t get that many at our club.

Bloody hell, why you getting so sensitive over someone’s observation?! It wasn’t the best defensive performance, but there were a lot of factors contributing to that (pitch, weather etc). What he says doesn’t change the result, you get that, right?

We controlled the game and should have won by more in horrific conditions. Really hope we don't play like that again...…...

Just seen the goals.

great ball from Walsh for the first but what was their keeper doing? Looked like he went for a header rather than go with his hands!

Again keeper at fault for Godden’s goal. Should be keeping that out

as for theirs, very calamitous at the back from the CB’s who let 40 year old Abraham in, then Marosi also questionable.

but I’ll take three points all day long
