I wasn’t irked by his reaction but I was really surprised by it. He’d just scored an equaliser off the bench, hadn’t been doing great since joining, I’d expected him to really celebrate. All he could do was look moody. Odd I thought and from where I sat in line with the eighteen yard box in the East I hadn’t heard any abuse aimed in his direction.Lewis Coaches said:

We are weak and flaccid without him.
Whether we stay up or not may rest his fitness and availability in the run in.
On a side note, I found myself really irked by Ladapo's reaction to his brilliant goal.
His team mates were thrilled for him, the crowd were delighted - what is your fcuking problem?
Engage the crowd and they will cheer you through brick walls.
Really, if you don't want to be here, just fcuk off
Your on loan we are paying you don’t like go back home to Ipswich. Easy.0 -
Remind me how many points we have got from the last 14 please? I wouldn’t trust this group to collectively run a bath.Callumcafc said:
This isn’t a situation where there’s a couple of weeks left of the season and our fate is out of our hands.CL_Phantom said:Callumcafc said:Saying we’re down and a point wasn’t enough tonight when there’s still 14 games left is quite the position to take.
Based off the way the team dug deep and almost found a winner at the end, we’ll get enough points between now and May to be quite comfortable.
And I haven’t felt this confident about that in a little while.
It's not really 14 games though, it’s 17, as our closest rivals for relegation have 3 extra games over us now. We only have to look back to the Riga season in the championship when he took over for the first time to see how massive that can be, we stayed up thanks to smart game management of our games in hand.
If we win enough games through the crucial months of March and April we will be fine, regardless of how many games in hand Port Vale have on us. Because those wins will put us above other teams as well as them.
18 points from 14 required to get to 50. Should be more than doable for this group.5 -

I reckon there’s a less than one percent chance that our next 14 are as bad as our last 14. It’s possible, but unlikely IMO. Especially after seeing how we finished the game last night.LargeAddick said:

Imagine a run of 28 games and only getting 12 points..! I reckon that would set EFL records.6 -
We must be living in an alternate universe....
Apparently we played Port Vale on Tuesday night and it's not just the headline that's wrong

Players celebrate in all sorts of different ways, but they all love scoring. He’s been getting stick from probably his third match, and he arrived at a time when the team were getting booed off at half time and full time. So he was probably feeling a range of feelings all at the same time.LargeAddick said:

Your on loan we are paying you don’t like go back home to Ipswich. Easy.His interview was very interesting I thought.I know it’s unfashionable to criticise the fans, but I thought the booing at half time was out of order, so soon into a new manager’s reign, with players so short of confidence. If you want to support the team and improve its chances of winning, especially when they’re in such a precarious position, you don’t do that, sorry.Lol away if you want.21 -
Yeah Booing is genuinely pointless at this stage, this is the manager and this is the squad. They decide our fate.
If we are relegated and you feel like venting, knock yourself out. I just think until the fat lady starts singing, it's got to be pure encouragement. Even I'm trying my hardest to stop calling them all sh*t15 -
Proved a point that some of us bring saying for a while .. if we had not lost Camara , Leaburn , Aneke we would be talking about top 6 we seen it already in the last two games massive diff they make … hopefully they get fit as quick as possible and with Hector due back it’s looking good ..1

That is doable, but if we lose the next 3 that becomes 18 from 11, and the pressure starts to ramp up each game.Callumcafc said:

18 points from 14 required to get to 50. Should be more than doable for this group.Again that is doable with our fixtures, but we would likely be in the bottom 4 in a couple weeks time, and my big question is do these players have the bottle/character to dig in and scrap their way out of that situation? Jones has a much better chance of getting it out of them than Appleton did but I’m still quite worried1 -
Steady the buffs Ronnie! Some big ifs in there, and it's not as though their susceptibility to injury wasn't known about, so to build your hopes around them is unwise to say the least.RonnieMoore said:Proved a point that some of us bring saying for a while .. if we had not lost Camara , Leaburn , Aneke we would be talking about top 6 we seen it already in the last two games massive diff they make … hopefully they get fit as quick as possible and with Hector due back it’s looking good ..
On saturday we travel to a well drilled side who've built back steadily since finding themselves in L2 having persevered with a manager.
We've used more players than I don't know what, play like a bunch of strangers, are very low on confidence, and it's hard to tell who'll be in the dug out for more than a few weeks at a time. I know what I'm expecting, and it isn't 'looking good' as you say, although I hope I'm wrong obviously.

Felt like the thirsty man lost in the desert stumbling upon an oasis, on Tuesday night, in the last 30 minutes.I genuinely think it would only take a couple of (unexpectedly) good results to get the crowd right back on side, which would really help in a relegation battle.0

He would have to send four off in the game for us to have any chance, still wouldn't be confident against seven.ButtleJR said:

But you miss the point that the squad had no replacements for a nineteen year old and a player who has not completed more than ten starts in two years, and please don't say he did at Birmingham, as a good proportion of his games there were from the bench. Andy Scott knew all about Chuks and Miles as he was here in January. If you asked anyone on this forum what would have been their priority signing then it would have been a player capable of holding the ball up and complimenting Alfie May, and before you suggest Tedic, you are probably a better player than he is.RonnieMoore said:Proved a point that some of us bring saying for a while .. if we had not lost Camara , Leaburn , Aneke we would be talking about top 6 we seen it already in the last two games massive diff they make … hopefully they get fit as quick as possible and with Hector due back it’s looking good ..0 -

My gut feeling is we will stay up but that we will also lose on Saturday. Our problem has been this season that we are too easily beaten by lesser teams, but Bolton are clearly a better team.1

We're not skilful enough to mix it with the best, not tough enough to take on the rest. Interested to see NJ tactics for Sat....more hoofball?

You think if there’s a marginal red card decision it won’t be weighing on his mind, especially at the famous Toughsheet Community Stadium? I don’t have much faith in L1 refs if I’m honest.se9addick said:

But Ricardo Santos was utterly dominant, as he has been before against us. And he’s out injured.In their last game they had a narrow home win against Wycombe, so I wouldn’t give up all hope just yet.7 -
Good news about Santos.0

I'll be unfashionable; some of our fans are absolute idiots. Nothing good whatsoever can come of booing at this stage in the season. There won't be any other new players, there won't be another change of manager (not that I think anyone wants that anyway). The only things that will happen are that it will demoralise the team and put a rift between players and 'fans'. It's clearly not everyone, but it's like we have a small bungle of mouth frothing idiots who in pavlovian style can't stop themselves from howling their pathetic cries whenever we go a goal down.JamesSeed said:LargeAddick said:

I understand the frustration of fans and my Tourette’s does kick in with some of the complete fuckedupness of our play , I mean seriously how many long high punts did they want to do to Alfie May , he’s 5ft 6 not the proclaimed 5ft 9 he’s not gonna win these balls so why keep doing it .
so the odd shout of frustration is understandable but booooing this lot won’t gain anything , the days of Mark Aizlewood giving us the V and then turning in to a top player are long gone , half this mob will break down crying and go further in to the shell their already playing from .

Santos is probably one of, if not the only, defender in the league who might be able to handle the threat of AnekeJamesSeed said:

Saturday a free hit we never beat Bolton home or away .. thing last time we won there think Derek Pringle may have scored .. last year we had the goal scored to make it 1-1 with the blokes arm .. ….. already got us down for Bolton 3 Charlton ?MuttleyCAFC said:My gut feeling is we will stay up but that we will also lose on Saturday.
