    But we really do ned to win in order to keep in the top 6, also to build morale. I do hope they all put a shift in.

    It's way too early in the season for such thoughts.

    I think it is must win. We need to improve our home record and our record against those expected to be challenging us to the promotion places.

    It's absolutely nothing like a must win. Crazy talk.

    Sorry DT but today is a must win.
    We've already lost 3 home games and it doesn't go down well to keep struggling to beat teams on our own patch.
    I hope we win today but the thing that bothers me most is our defence. I do hope that they can put in a performance that keeps Blackpool out.

    I disagree. Any game is a must win. Unless you are soundly in the top 6 with one game to go.

    Any team who sets an expectation that it is ok to lose must not in my book have ambitions to achieve a title, promotion or play off. It isn't a winning mentality and if fans believe its not important to win the next game they also must also have set expectations low.

    All games are must win if you want to achieve promotion.

    That would be my aim whenever we are in League One. If it’s not the club’s then we’ve declined a lot since not too long ago.

    Most worrying thing today is we’ve lost to the worst side I’ve seen at Oakwell so far and not made the Blackpool goalie make a save.

    The Blacky Lashers aren't a great team though, and was that their first away league goal of the season. So what does that say about us ?. :eek:
