Been a few cards already, can see a red or 2 at this rate but then again it's our friend Mr.Stroud brandishing them.

[Filo]

What a shite first half!

[DearneValleyRover]

Poor game, nervy and indicative of all the teams up top at present, good for us so far, all that's needed now is a couple of sending off's and still 0-0.

[rover-n-out]

I thought some of our recent games were piss poor, but jeez, this is dire. Keep it up lads!


BTW, 'ey up Les, how you doin'. Everybody ok. Will see you Sunday for our Alf's remembrance service. Love to Sue. Pip.

[andysly]

I think it's better than our game at Crawley........but only just

[Filo]

Yeovil`s pitch might have some grass on it, but the surface does n`t play any better than ours, there`s divots all over the place!

[DearneValleyRover]

Swindon playing well now, Williams looks a threat.

[RobTheRover]

I still fancy Sprotbrough Crusaders u10s to give both of these a hard game.

Uh oh. Psycho keeper syndrome strikes again. Swindon penalty.

[DearneValleyRover]

Can't see Yeovil getting back in this, bugger, bloody rubbish Johnson.

[DearneValleyRover]

What's with Hayter's hair? Looks as if he's got it off some psycho serial killer!

[DearneValleyRover]

Best team won but not a good result for us.

[ScillyRover]

2-0 Swindon

[IDM]

Best team won but not a good result for us.

Possibly not DVR - we play Swindon so that can be a 6 pointer for us.  We can't effect what Yeovil do.

Swindon have two home games before we play them. That televised game will be crucial to our chances of remaining in the auto spots I believe.

[IDM]

Doesn't matter who plays who or in what order.  We just need the best result possible, one game at a time...

[Bristol Red Rover]

I think its the best result for us, Yeovil got a better run in. Swindon likely to collapse with the intensity of their games, the pressure from fans and board, and having too many Rooneys

[mrfrostsdad]

Just shows what a poor league it is. These are two of the best sides! Rubbish!

Exactly , each game as it come and it's entirely in our hands. However some of the other contenders will be taking points off each other as well as us.

What a load of b*llocks is this "its not what other teams do, its all up to us". No it isn't!

If other teams end up with 75 points its waay better for us than if they end up with 85.

[IDM]

And we could only get 74!  We need to sort out our own points then worry about the others later...

[mrfrostsdad]

I think the point he is trying to make is 'its in our own hands' so if we win all our remaining games, it really doesn't matter what anyone else does. Not that we will!

[Bristol Red Rover]

We won't be winning all our games, not nearly, and of course it matters how many points we get - but it also matters massively what others do. The more they get, the more we have to get.

Its not like the team do worse if we as fans look at other teams... or is there some kind of fearful footy fan superstition going on?

What the hell was all that about. It IS clearly what we do irrespective of what the others do to each other. Of course if some get more i.e Swindon it's at the expense of Yeovil tonight. Same with Blunts v. Brentford on Satdi. Of course we would prefer draws between rivals however a win for one reduces the others chance.
I can't understand why you kicked off like that ? 

[BillyStubbsTears]

Lads, lads, lads. And lasses if you're reading.

Calm down. Have a scrunt about in your Solomons and try and find them knacker that have gone AWOL (lads, obviously, not lasses).

Let's look at tonight's result dispassionately.

1) One of the form teams in the division has just been dealt a grievous, possibly terminal blow. Yeovil were looking like really nasty contenders a couple of weeks back. Suddenly, they have to make up 6 points in 8 games to catch us. Have a think what that means. If we get a respectable, but not earth-shattering 14 points from our last 8 games, Yeovil have to get 6 wins and 2 draws from their last 8 to match us. Tonight's result goes a long way to knocking one of the most dangerous rivals out of the race.

2) So Swindon are now 3 points behind us with 8 games left. Well guess what. 8 games ago, they were 2 points behind us. Think about it. Swindon are not some sort of overbearing force in this division. They are not in particularly good form. While we have been losing points against MK, Crawley and Portsmouth, we've actually pulled away from them.

I've been saying it for weeks and I'll say it again. It's ours to lose. If we lose it, it's because WE have lost it, not because the challengers are much cop. Get 13-14 points from the last 8 games and we'll go up. Simple as that.

Now. Go and find your knackers. You need them when you get the business end of the season. You need to accept that not every result will go your way. But that unfavourable results do not mean that it's time to start wailing like babbies.

[Belle-Vue-Ghost]

BST is right!

13-14 points and we are fine.  1.75 points per game.

Tell you what, a win on Saturday will go a long way and even a point at Coventry.

After that it'd be around 10 points needed from 6 games.
