My android phone app said we equalised last minute. Lying little t**t, the guy who develops it must be a blades fan.

Hard to think that we haven't just bottled it. Gutted.

ScillyRover · « **Reply #109 on** April 20, 2013, 05:08:47 pm by ScillyRover »

I really don't fancy our chances if it comes to the playoffs.

Lipsy · « **Reply #110 on** April 20, 2013, 05:18:48 pm by Lipsy »

In a foul mood now, but I have to agree. I don't fancy our chances against Swindon or Yeovil. Still, whodaeventhunk we'd where we are at the start of the season? Plenty of positives, we just have to see what happens...

gillinghamrover · « **Reply #111 on** April 20, 2013, 05:22:47 pm by gillinghamrover »

Still ours to lose gents, a win next week and we are up. Positive thinking and all that!!!

Lipsy · « **Reply #112 on** April 20, 2013, 05:33:32 pm by Lipsy »

Aye, this is true. But it's a great day to be an exile in Bournemouth, who is off to Cherries fan's house tonight... Who was it that has repeatedly said that AFCB would drop points?

Unless the monkey hangers pull off on unlikely win, I'm thinking it's League One for us next season. I hope I'm wrong, but we've bottled this game (and a number of other games that we should've won) and I think that's going to ultimately cost us.

Hopefully I am wrong.

We were second best first half, much improved second and created some good chances but County too good defensively.

Lipsy · « **Reply #114 on** April 20, 2013, 06:14:36 pm by Lipsy »

They had won 3 games in 10... Presumably blooding some of their younger players in for next season. That's bottling it for me, and I see no reason to be positive at the moment.

IDM · « **Reply #115 on** April 22, 2013, 06:49:15 pm by IDM »

We did not bottle it, as you say, we created loads of chances but just lacked a bit of quality in the box.

They scored an unstoppable free kick, and on another day 2 or 3 of our best chances could have counted.

The difference between a good performance and a win, and an indifferent performance and a defeat is very little - a few misplaced passes, a bit of bad ball control, a few good blocks by their 'keeper and defenders, a dubious offside goal disallowed...

ravenrover · « **Reply #116 on** April 23, 2013, 06:21:51 pm by ravenrover »

IDM can you expand on the "loads of chances"? Apart from the save by their keeper in the 1st half I can't remember anything that looked like a goal scoring opportunity We may have had statistically 18 efforts on goal but how many of them actually looked like actually scoring a goal, and please don't just say the 4 on target efforts because I can't think of 4 can you? We've been like this all season at home, with just a few exceptions, and I really can't understand how on the last game of the season we are still in with a chance of promotion, Since Cotterills season ended in January, when Mr Saunders left, apart from an excellent cross at Bournemouth from which Paynter scored we have been really poor in and around the box.
I really do hope we manage it on Saturday, I will be there, and I will cheer a good performance as much as the next supporter but................... I do worry. JMHO

IDM · « **Reply #117 on** April 23, 2013, 08:01:56 pm by IDM »

The stats say there were 8 efforts on target. Agreed not many required decent saves, but there were several blocks made by defenders diving in front of the ball, Paynter's tight angle shot that a defender cleared off the line, the one in the first half where the keeper almost spilled it to Brown(?), the injury time header that just missed, Copps' free kick that was saved etc.

Yes there were possibly only perhaps 3 efforts where I expected the net to bulge but as I have said elsewhere, we just lacked that bit of quality going forward. Very little difference between what actually happened and what could have happened with very little improvement in performance.

My glass half full perhaps? Yeah, why not...
