Derby and Bristol rovers. Chalk and Cheese. But I reckon Bristol did a job on us. After they didn't turn up at Oakwell. Derby had to respond being 2 goals down early doors. Interesting few games difficult to predict. And as I never do. I'll leave it there.
Spot on. It would take an England Cricket style collapse for us to miss out on the Play-Offs. It's a shame we drew away at Bristol because I hoped we were good enough for automatic. Need to get back on the horse tomorrow night.
Personally, I'm not looking beyond tomorrow's game. At this point, we don't know whether injuries, suspensions, loss of form of individual players will come into play during the following matches. Just concentrate on Portsmouth.
All my own work(!) Honest(!) If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream—and not make dreams your master; If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools: If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’ If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
18, points would be Automatic status, 14, would be massive, if we get 6 points, i'll take it, its a point a game from 6 hard games, C,O,Y,R,
If we get 18 we might be in bare bum / town hall steps territory! I reckon we need 14 for top 2. 8 points or above to still be comfy in the play off chase.
Best keep away from this for the next 6 games because if it doesn't go to plan it will be total meltdown everybugger out including the cleaners
