All this doom and gloom.

It's all ifs and buts at the moment. No need to shit ones self. Had we got that 2nd in the first 10 mins, we win comfortably. Even when we werent performing we still created chances. Yes, when Osborn came on I knew it was game over, but our 11 beats every other 11 most weeks, and that's all we need, to win "most" of our games.

We're underestimating our own teams mentality here. Whenever we get a knock back, we usually get a win next game. This has been the case in all but one of our seasons (prem relegation) in the last 7 years. The players have the mentality to do this, they have the experience, and they have the quality.

Here's to a comfortable 2-0 win at the weekend.

You'll get better odds if you specify which part of his body it ricochets off.

Osborn will be starting tomorrow though, is that game over from the start?!

 

[CPB]

I'm hopeful of a good reaction and result for us tomorrow, that is what defines promotion teams.

But equally Millwall aren't mugs. Far from it! So it will be a tough match whichever way it pans out.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Millwall away is tough at any time so I suspect it might be a struggle regardless of the other night but I don't think they are anywhere near Middlesbrough.

If we match or better Middlesbrough and Luton's results on Saturday we have a 7 point lead with 14 games for us and 13 for Middlesbrough minimum or 11 points over Luton. That's exciting!

Hopefully the players will go for the jugular and turn the disappointing result from Wednesday night around and hand back the pressure to boro

 

[John Street West Terrace]

I’d still rather be our position than Boro’s and sure they would ! Granted we were all disappointed Weds night but it’s one result .
They’ve still got play about 5 of the play off contenders & remember those at the bottom will be fighting for there lives to stay in the division.
Still 45 points to play for don’t judge on one performance

 

[Bladesman]

Don't come on here with your positive attitude. Do you know where you are?

Next you will be telling us the Boro keeper made the most saves out of all the matches played midweek and that our XG was good.

 

[HighfieldBlade]

Keep the faith Blades Positive Mental Attitude! Forget about other games' outcomes - they're completely out of our control. Focus on our own games, one game at a time .

They were poor in the cup against us , accept it was the cup but I remember reading they take the cup seriously

Yeah but they signed Burke since then

We made a few changes that day so I guess they did too.

I'm going down tonight early and camping for the night outside, got to get the scoop on what he's wearing when he arrives....

I know we swapped him for Robinson plus a few quid, but really that deal was a disaster of everest size wasn't it..

Nailed on tomoz, I agree..

 

[Tezza1889]

As for the thread, positivity is needed, but I remember how they chased a playoff place down last season, this season they're still in the driving seat, so it's up to the players, and after all it's bonuses and wage increases for seeing the job out (probably a free lads holiday too)

What more motivation do they need, it was one game with midds, who've a team of lads playing without pressure out of the bottom of the league, same as forest last year and us, also midds will be on a huge incentive package.

Now the pressure really starts for us and Midds, I can't see Reading getting any change out of them, so we need something at Millwall.

It's really down to the players, failure go up this season, our 1st team will be scrapped for parts.
