Always seem to have a good month, then a bad month, then a good month, then a bad month in terms of league matches. I expect 4 points at most this month. Portsmouth are going to destroy us
Sounded as if we deserved a point max, and Doncaster wallop someone away from home after playing a strong team in the cup. You can say ifs and buts all you like but results are the proof it was a stupid thing to do.
People can say what they like but the facts speak for themselves
Blackpool had 9 players who started today starting in the FA Cup
We had 2.
If we played a full strength team last week would we have won today maybe not, would we have won last week again maybe not, but resting players last week did not help today either.
People have been saying all week 4 points from Blackpool and Portsmouth and Bowyers decision would be justified, well thats now impossible
The amount of late goals we concede is frankly a joke.
Has Bowyer considered resting players?
What is the relevance of that last comment when we clearly deserved a draw at the very least and might even have won it with a little more luck. Got fuck all to do with today’s result......if you think it has I’d like to hear how?
We don't seem to be playing to Fosu's strengths, unless theres another explanation for his decline, very frustrating, different player under Bowyer. I think we miss that stabilising influence in midfield.
Some of our quick passing and movement was outstanding.
We just don't have the quality depth in the attacking area of our squad to maintain our momentum.
Down to 7th. Leagues best team up next. Truth of the matter is that we are just about where we deserve to be. Not as good as some of us think and promotion looks a long shot at best.

by the sounds of it we seem to tire out in the last 10 minutes and lost control of the game we should of won ourselfs judging by the rest of the second half performance.

It was a joke, lighten up happy
Well a few posters had irritatingly been banging on about it during the game so naturally I assumed you were doing likewise VG.

Weve conceded once against Burton / Bristol Rovers and two against Blackpool since the beginning on November in the League - Not a bad return against five teams
When starting a game, Reeves allows us to control and use the ball much more than Lapslie does. In the last ten minutes of a rainy frenetic scrap he really doesn't bring what we need? Weird substitution. I would agree that his free-kicks were no good
Rest the players in mid week. We might beat the Dons next Saturday. If Bowyer plays players in the right position.
Far too much optimism and excuses on the match thread for this set of players and management. Not good enough for the play offs as squad not big enough, Roland out.
Big concern that we went on a recent winning run in the league and yet still find ourselves outside the playoffs.
If injuries continue to pile up (as they tend to in winter months) with this squad (that’s before Roland decides on a Jan clear out) then top 6 is a tough ask, that could be out of reach for us for yet another season.

And now, after missing a string of chances ourselves, we get a dose of our own medicine.
That's football, I'm afraid.

I’ll slightly sympathise IF we beat Pompey.

JFC and now Cullen are huge misses, as to a lesser extent is Pratley.
Ward and Clarke also need for that bit of experience and guile.
Play-offs look like the best we can do right now but ever the optimist I say it's not yet half way through the season.
Fuck Charlton AND the world!!!
If Pompey beat us we will be SIXTEEN points off top after 21 games!!
