That we didn’t get promoted with 95 points was a crime to football. Didn’t help that we had half a squad out injured for the playoff final.
This season I wouldn’t be surprised if 78 points was enough for 3rd given there’s so many teams battling for it.
Currently we are on course for 82...
They did nosedive a little bit in the final 18 games or so last season.. but even a repeat of that would win them the league.
They’d need to do a collapse more akin to Carlisle.
Have you been to their ground?
While on TV it looks a nice lower league ground in reality it’s a s-hole and like a few other grounds new to the league doesn’t have the infrastructure to cope with the support of more traditional EFL clubs.
No don’t want Salford winning. 0-0 is a good compromise.
Edit: if we finished 4th I’d love Salford to sneak into the playoffs and make 7th, huge fan of Gary Bowyer.
Can’t wait for Tranmere to unveil the full scope of our new stadium complex, which is essentially like a larger version of what FGR are planning in the sense it will be a community hub with various community facilities, alongside a large events arena, restaurants, bars and hotel along a...
Looking forward to Swindon next up. We’ve got a pretty poor record against them and had to work hard at their ground for a point.
Our home record is bizarre. 11 wins against teams outside the playoffs but 4 losses from 4 against teams in it. A win Tuesday to change that will settle any seeds of...
Robbed by inept officials.
Though had we been more clinical that would have been immaterial.
Barrows match tactics involved shouting “handball” as often as possible and somehow got given a penalty when our right back chested it back to the Keeper.
Curiously no red for the barrow CB who pulled...
Not sure the bit about not being wanted by us is a good argument considering how strong our attacking midfield options are.
Expect him to do a solid job for you.
That’s fair.
It’s possible that 7th place might be a really low points tally this season like 69/70 which would open the door to more teams.
Whereas there might not be a huge difference between 2nd and 6th. 83 for 2nd down to 77 for 6th maybe.
Up until Saturday, in terms of an individual performance I thought Harrogate were the best we’d played followed by Northampton. But in this league consistency always seems to count for more than upper potential.
At the other end I wouldn’t be surprised to see Scunthorpe go on a run of sorts...
Swindon’s form will have a big say in who can make a run at the top 7, whilst I personally think you’ll make top 7, you do look the most likely to drop out of it at the moment.
Points on the board is huge in a condensed schedule with generally smaller than usual squads due to covid financial...
I watched part of that interview - it’s always refreshing when the people in charge are open and honest like that. Looks like you have good people running the club and that’s always a solid foundation for success.
You’re 12th though?
You can hope for something like that to happen, but I’ve seen a lot of Gas fans even confident they will.
Just curious what reasons you think you’ll have a dramatic up turn in form? Are certain players available now, have you changed system? Etc. Looking from the outside...
