kevtheowl Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Rhodes won't score, why would he want to upset his future employer. UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sham67 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I'd take a point now. We'll be lucky to get anything on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 As long as we are averaging 2 points a game drawing one won't be the calamity that the OP thinks...our home form will see to that We are only averaging 2 points per game at home so how will drawing away see to us averaging 2 points a game overall?

shandypants Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 I think what Shandy was trying to say is we need to win if we want to keep the pressure on the top 6 considering the weekend fixture schedule. Cheers Ronio. Exactly that. So eloquently put also. Some others don't half jump to conclusions. You stated exactly what I wanted to express. I was trying to say that we need to take advantage of weekends like next. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1867Heaven Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I think Blackburn away, in their first home game under lambert is a stinker. He was a top player and has shown he is a good manager. They will be well organised, rejuvenated, and they have a fantastic striker! Happily take a draw, and move on. I think this is as tough as any fixture up to Christmas. This really, a win would be a real mark of intent but its all about not losing really this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Lestrade Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Doesn't matter which team we play, always happy with a point away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIOwl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 If we keep fluffing every opportunity to break into the top 6, then we'll not finish in the top 6. I'm a mathematics professor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompeyowl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 18th game of the season and these are already "must win" games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Doesn't matter which team we play, always happy with a point away from home. well its better than losing , but its a bit of a throwback to when you only got 2 points for a win ......

Bluey9 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Let's show the rest of the division some real intent and smash Blackburn out of sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swfc-dan Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Home form seems sorted but we still need to show that level in our away games, which hasn't quite happened yet apart from Newcastle when we were excellent. Charlton, Bolton, QPR, Burnley were all games when we weren't at our best. We've had good spells in some away games though (Brentford 1st half, Rotherham) but they are weaker teams so I think it will come soon but we can't be expecting an easy win just yet.

Spookone Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Win - that what we need to do and thats what I think we will do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eightace Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 No point looking at the table one game at a time. We could lose and win next three. Its where we finish at the end. I think the gelling period has cost us though this year. We'll always be playing catchup now I expect us to be up there from the off next season. .

TrickyTrev Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I think a draw at Blackburn would be a decent result. It's their new managers first home game in charge, they're bound to be fired up for this one and with Jordan Rhodes up front, they're always going to be a threat. This will be a really tough match.

parkerowl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Personally i expect them to really come at us as it Lamberts first home game. I'd start Joao and try and counter them with some real pace because i think they'll commit good number forward in attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkerowl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I fully expect Rhodes to score, so we will need two, which we are well capable of getting. As already said , a big chance to close up on a couple of those above us . I really cant see Brum winning at Brighton, so a win for us would send us into the play offs. And you know what mate, i've pencilled this in as Brighton's first loss, such is the wierd nature of this league. Birmingham are fantastic away from home.

This will be a really tough match. there all tough its not an easy division we all know that .....but dont buy into its a new manager so its going to be tougher .they are what they are, you can be as fired as you want but if your a good / bad/ indifferent side it shouldnt make any difference .....i think we are better than them so if we play our best then no reason we cant win no matter what they do .
