cityexile Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Not great, and on the balance of the second half, a 'battling away point'. Always going to be close, Bolton only beaten once there, and sounds like the big calls went against us, so have to take it. Another clean sheet, so it is what it is.

JoeAman08 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 An away point is ok. This is the type of team we need to be getting 3 points against though. There aren't many of them and we won't always beat them but that's now 3 points from 3 games against teams we will be battling it out with to stay up. If what we've been told about how good our team is, that isn't acceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If what we've been told about how good our team is, that isn't acceptable. What's all this bull$h1t about us being told how good we are? The comments I have read from Cotterill are that we are getting better. Have a look at our away record - it's not that shoddy. If we sort things out at the Gate (and we have won two out of the last three at home) we will be alright. To call an away point unacceptable is unacceptable if you ask me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samo II Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Last six results; 2-0 win against Forest 2-1 loss to Brighton 0-0 draw at Cardiff 1-4 hammering by Fulham 1-0 victory against Wolves 0-0 draw with Bolton 2 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses - 8 points, 5 goals for, 6 goals against. That Fulham result is looking like an outlier from our recent form, and considering survival should be our single aim this year, we do currently sit 2 points and a better goal difference from the drop zone, despite getting destroyed at home only one week back. Couple of weeks to get prepared for the league leaders now, and we certainly seem to play better against teams higher up the division, which is a positive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking results may have been the other way round but whatever, I'll take 2 clean sheets after the blip against Fulham. Hope to get something out the Hull game and then 3 points from Rotherham to finish the month strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
