Let's be honest you shouldn't be able to call games off like that without punishment, I'd say COVID is a convenient excuse for this happening a few times this season but the EFL have a track record of doing fuck all about it pre-COVID as well so it probably doesn't make a difference. The game...
Can't be happy conceding with the last kick but was the very least Barrow deserved out of that. Still not 100% convinced we have the ability defensively to stay the pace near the top.
First 43 minutes went exactly as I thought it would, the next 20 we were outstanding, and then we were pretty solid after that.
2nd in the table, 11 played 8 of which are in the top half, next 5 against 18th, 24th, 6th, 22nd and 19th, starting to get a bit optimistic....
Big game for us tonight, 4 of our next 5 league games after this look pretty kind on paper, so 3 points here will put us in a very good position. Got a nagging feeling Salford will do us 2-0 though.
Very poor from us today, really missed Hoolahan, far too slow moving the ball and didn't play the conditions very well. Win would have been unjust but should see the game out once we go up that late, far too much space afforded to Sarcevic for the goal, and a little lucky to hang on in the end...
All out now as well. There should be a retrial for manslaughter, at the very least. They showed no remorse first time around and their families were a disgrace to the Dobbin's after the verdict, absolute gutter scum the lot of them.
It's truly awful news, what Simon and his family have been...
We're good, this is fun. It's still very early days, but we've crushed every single doubt I had coming into the season into pieces so far. If you'd told me 6 weeks ago I'd be expecting to beat Bolton I'd have laughed in your face.
Vale are a good team but as I think they've mostly identified on...
Kettle endearing himself to both sets of fans again, that was outside the box.
Vale look dangerous going forward, Scunthorpe did too the first 15 minutes Saturday, our defence still makes me a little uneasy.
First play from scrimmage, calamity Kirk at it again. Worse because I put him in my fantasy team this week, madness.
Edit: And Burrow is balling, great.
That was one of the best Cambridge performances I've seen, certainly the best for 3 or 4 years at least, absolutely magnificent.
Scunthorpe were atrocious though, it must be said.
Absolutely peak Vikings tonight. Going for it on 4th and 1 rather than taking 3 for an 8 point lead was an awful call, and then to give up a 4th and 10 and 4th and goal, shambles. Zimmer's seat should be burning hot after this cock up.
Pain.
Worst thing is we will win 6 games, pick #10, pick a DB (not that we don't need one), keep Zimmer, and be stuck in this loop of mediocrity for another 10 years.
At least Jefferson looks very, very good, but I'm now at the point I don't want to win games. Sadly, there are at least 6 teams...
We are getting absolutely dominated by the Packers here, it's about 25 to 5 in time of possession, 3 drives for us, touchdown (great drive), safety, pick. Adams on fire, Pack using their running backs well in the pass game, and our D has only showed up inside the 10, and they're gonna be...
