Burton v Fleetwood

[JJ1532]

Hmm, Burton have been finding it harder to win of late. Only 1 in their last 5, failed to take advantage of their game in hand on Tuesday and still not 100% secure for the top 2. Still, you'd back them to beat a Fleetwood side that are, Coventry aside, very poor away from home. Can see this being a tight 0-0 or 1-0 in Burton's favour. Pressure on them a little bit, can they handle it?

We are due a win against Fleetwood, I am expecting a really tough game as Fleetwood have been doing well recently and made a couple of useful signings. The pressure is on and hope they can handle it tomorrow. Looks like I'm going to miss my 1st home game of the season as I'm laid up with flu'.

Come on Burton. Do it for Matty.

The Fleetwood boy with the Eastern European name gave one of the best midfield displays we've seen at Bradford. Was this a one off?

Sarcevic? Looked pretty useful at Spotland as well, as did Ashley Hunter.

 

[THE TERRACEMAN]

Think they signed him from Chester, scored the winner at Wembley against us in the play off final.

 

[THE TERRACEMAN]

Missed the game with flu but mates tell me we played really well today and handled the pressure. 2 great strikes from Duffy and we should have scored more was the consensus of opinion. Good three points extending our lead to 6 points from Wigan and maintaining a nine point gap to third place with ten games to go.

 

[Bartonyellow]

71 points. We are getting closer. 5 more wins should do it from ten games although that won't be easy in sure.

 

[Parchpea]

Sarcevic missing today not that he would have made much difference as we where completely outplayed.

Fleetwood are one of half dozen teams that could be relegated but even so we usually have a passage of play, decent moments, but not today, miracle only 1 goal seperated the teams.

Burton may not have star names but they are extremely efficient in every department, like Leicester greater than the sum of their parts, every credit.

 

[THE TERRACEMAN]

Yep 5 wins and I think we are up !
