I'm sure the current Barrow players probably don't know or care what happened in 1972. Neither would they consider whether or not Joey Barton will be happy.
They'll just do their best to finish the season with a good result. Whether they're good enough to take anything off Northampton I'm not...
Missed those results. Still no loss by more than 5 though.
Those recent draws were still decent. Newport had nothing to play for but still won at Vale yesterday and a 2-1 loss at Bradford looks respectable after they won 4-1 at Sutton on Saturday.
With your senior pros performing so badly this...
That may be true but you've drawn 2 of your last 3.
The one you did lose was only 2-1 at Bradford, which was a decent result. They knocked 4 past Sutton on Saturday.
It's not like you're getting thrashed every week. You haven't conceded more than 4 this season.
As I said, we had a similar...
Good point. Forgot that one. Still, nothing to suggest we're going to bang in 6 or 7. I know Fulham scored 7 yesterday but it seldom happens in football.
First and foremost we have to win the game against Scunthorpe.
They've drawn 2 of their last 3 so it might not be the walk in the park some are suggesting.
If we can get 2 or 3 goals up by half time then we can risk all-out attack second half.
Can't see us scoring 6 or 7 though, we haven't...
We haven't scored more than 4 in a game this season and haven't won any game by more than 3 goals.
Scunthorpe have drawn 2 of their last 3 and only lost 2-1 at Bradford, who knocked 4 past Sutton on Saturday, so their form isn't awful.
Even when you get cup matches between sides 8 leagues...
Draw probably a fair result.
We edged the stats with slightly more possession, a couple more shots, one more on target, a few more corners, and two decent shouts for a penalty. However, Exeter could have snatched it at the end when they put a great chance wide.
Not much to choose between the...
It's so difficult to predict.
I always felt Rochdale could get out even when they were well adrift but they're still only out the bottom 4 on goal difference and Walsall have a game in hand. Rochdale's last 2 games are tricky. Oxford who have picked up of late winning 2 of their last 3 and a...
Strange game really. Donny seemed to have a lot of the ball and played some really good stuff but the stats say their only shot on target was the goal.
It was highly entertaining. Donny are a good footballing team but we soaked up the pressure and always looked a threat on the break. Both teams...
What's happened at Northampton?
We won 6-0 at their place back in October and even Hasselbaink admitted it could and probably should have been 10+ such was our dominance and the clear chances we created. We even missed a penalty.
Have to say I thought they were nailed on to go down but they...
Bradford were one of the best sides we played earlier this season. Not sure what's happened since then. Maybe a few injuries but haven't all teams got a few of those at this stage of the season? Think they had a few back who missed the Northampton game last week according to the pre match on the...
Great support. I thought we took a decent following to Charlton (2194) back in August but 3870 is different class.
I guess the round trip is about 140 miles more from Bristol but even so, that is superb support from the Pompey boys.
Disagree with that Gassy.
I've seen every game this season except Portsmouth away and I'd go as far as saying that Bodin put in the best individual performance I've seen from any player in any team this season.
Thought he was different class. Superb touch, vision, one touch flicks, forward...
Phil Brown is spot on when he said this could easily have been 6 or 7. Apart from a 10 minute spell towards the end of the first half it was one way traffic.
23 Attempts to Southends 3
11 On Target to Southends 0
9 Corners to Southends 2
Very, very comfortable. If it wasn't for their keeper-...
