We won two league games on the run?
Hopefully after tomorrow we'll all know.

Grimsby away and then Mansfield at Home was the last time we won 2 league games on the bounce. Didn’t quite realise that we’d not done it yet this season until you put this thread on.

So if a week is a long time in football how long must 8 months be?

Presuming we do win tomorrow, it will be 25 league games between the two back-to-back win sequences - or more than half a league season.

If our league record over a season was W-D-W-D-W-D-W-D.... would anyone complain?

By the way. O’Driscoll waited  from 26 Dec 2006 to 3 Nov 2007 between two sets of consecutive league wins.

Just sayin like.

So you've never heard a commentator say so and so has gone 12 months unbeaten at home or whatever when he's clearly including the off season?

Yeah except it doesn't matter when it's someone he doesn't disagree with.

It's same for both points, daft including 3.5 months even more so when the total months is only 8 months, almost half the time being claimed nobody was playing

I can recall under Dickov going along time too without 2 consecutive wins.
Must be a common theme

Good old Dickos: can put a positive spin on anything.
Anyway, that's another opportunity gone.
So who would sooner us have got knocked out of the cup last week and won today instead?? Me for one

It doesnt work like that does it. We played terrific last week and smashed our local rivals.

Shouldn't have lost today but last week's result clearly has no bearing on today's.

Maybe we shouldn't have lost, I wasn't there so I don't know. But we lost, end of. Last week was a cup game, completely immaterial in my mind. The league is the only thing that matters. We're too close to the relegation zone to keep losing in injury time

So, we've not won 2 on the run for 25 games. What's positive about that? Ill tell you what: nothing

Glad you agree that last week's game is irrelevant to today's then.

Look, it's not good enough at all that we keep losing it late. It sounds to me like we played well today, but couldn't take our chances. I really think we need to find a striker who is clinical in front of goal at this level. It doesn't seem as if Marquis is quite that at the moment unfortunately.

What's negative about beating Scunthorpe 3-0 a side that had won 6 on the bounce.
Nothing

It doesn't matter, it was a cup game. Did Scunthorpe not make something like 8 changes?

And how many points did beating Scunthorpe get us last week? Nil. Zilch. That will really help us come the end of the season if we're in a relegation battle

Put it this way if we'd lost 3-0 you'd have been on here pissing and whining
