Okay, that's fine

Okay that's fine

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

It'll do

 

[JordoBlade]

Disappointing to say we were 2 up but we could've lost it towards the end. Think a draw seemed a fair result.

 

[Blade56]

8 points clear of 3rd place, that's one better than this morning.

Disappointed we've missed another golden chance to open an unassailable gap.

 

[Blade82]

We've moved another point clear of 3rd. 8 point gap.

Unbeaten in six. 12 points from last 6 promotion winning form that.

Top of the league.

Say what you like, im drinking to that tonight.

[Roygbiv]

Hard not to be disappointed given the start though I would have taken a point beforehand

 

[Harry's Game]

Yes it's not a bad day as Bolton and Scunny continue to implode and Rochdale is a tricky away trip ticked off.

Bit of reality check though on where we still need improve for The Championship particularly in defence.

 

[Foxy]

Missing something today, didn't control things, the change didn't really work, but a decent point.

 

[PokerBlade]

Yeah, a point is okay against Rochdale. Not great, not bad. The way games like this spin out you can go either way. It's great character and resilience to not drop collapse when you get pegged back from a two goal lead, or it's hugely disappointing to let the win slip away.

And with results elsewhere, it's all good.

 

[Minty]

Yes, disappointing not to win from 0-2 in front, but according to Edwards, Rochdale played very well and deserved a point.

8 points clear of 3rd - that'll do me!

'Massive' game for Notlob next week now...good point today Blades, keep on rollin'

UTB!

[Iceybabey]

Sounded like Moore made a crucial save at the death so can't make too many complaints. If you can't win, don't lose, simple!

"As a general rule, win your home and draw your away and you'll go up". Another game ticked off, that's all it is. A game that will be completely forgotten about when we're (hopefully) lifting the trophy at the end of the season. You have to take a few draws in and amongst the wins.

Not as disappointed as Bolton and Scunts will be pal

 

[scottyblade70]

Think there was a little spark missing. Mendez-laing was able to run things without challenge it seemed. Maghey was also in the game more than his talent suggests. We just didn't seem to take it by the scruff of the neck and put it to bed at 2-0. Tough game but 2 pts lost for me if I'm honest. Onwards and upwards. NEXT!! COYRAWW!

That's why I can't see it as a good point. Great chance missed. Anyway on to the next one.

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

If Bolton didn't have that game in hand I'd be feeling much more comfortable

 

[Basegreen_Blade]

If Fleetwood Town overtake us I'll be fuming.

This is supposed to be our year, so fuck off with your "oooh look at us with our foreign manager and ridiculous recent points to games ratio".

 

[Minty]

We went 2 up far too early

 

[Barney]

If Bolton didn't have that game in hand I'd be feeling much more comfortable

Even if they win it we'd still be 6 points clear of them.

 

[Blade82]

23 other sides in this league, each and every one of them would swap places with us tonight.

Could look at that league table all night!

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Even if they win it we'd still be 6 points clear of them.

7 points with the goal difference as well

 

[Roygbiv]

Wilder says we "dodged a bullet" as Rochdale were the better side

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

We've moved another point clear of 3rd. 8 point gap.

Here, here. Well said.

 

[Champagneblade]

So at least 2 teams have to pick up 1/2 point per game on us over the next 11 matches, even if Bolton win what is not an easy game in hand. And none of them get to play us in a six pointer.

The only games against top 6 teams are 2 home games against Millwall and Bradford.

I'm sleeping easy in my bed tonight and so should you all be.

 

[ourbob]

I don't think Bolton fans will be worried about us,maybe Fleetwood,but not us.

 

[Antonb]

8 points clear of third is the most important stat. How we would have taken this at the start of the season! Its in our hands to get promotion , and i just cannot see these players blowing it.

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

Tuesday's a big opportunity (even if it is a tricky fixture).

Only us & Scunny out of the top 6 sides playing. Chance to stretch that lead.

 

[Selly]

One thing is for sure, if our aim is promotion, rather than the title (and surely it has to be) we want Fleetwood to beat Bolton next week...

Anything other than a Bolton win reduces the 27 points we need to be confirmed as promoted.
