edwinowl Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 It’s a good result for us this. Little longer to get someone like Gregory back Rest for Luongo Baz Byers and Johnson. More bodies back is crucial for this run in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Can't play it 8th March, Fleetwood play Sunderland that night. 22nd is next available date. I'm in Benidorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Fantham Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 We'll have games in only 3 of the remaining 9 midweek slots, and two games over Easter weekend. Shouldn't be too bad really 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I’m actually disappointed because I like to watch midweek games but glad as it at least means we can keep playing our best available 11 for now and don’t have to rest players. Obviously it all catches up with you further down the line but fingers crossed we can get more players back than we lose between now and then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 At least it gives us chance to get some of the injured players back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flash Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Glad they’ve decided it early. Gives us time to start focussing on the Charlton game and they’ve a tough one with MK Dons on Tuesday. As others have pointed out a rest will do the players good. It’s essential we keep the 3 CMs fit considering we’ve limited back up! Should have Gregory and Hutchinson back for Saturday you’d hope.

But it's still pretty frustrating nonetheless. Looking at the fixtures I expect most of the teams around us to win meaning we will be playing catch up once again. We don't need to worry about teams around us, with fixtures we have left play off position is in our hands. Playing Fleetwood and Accrington in march with more players back is much better for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

room0035 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I am caught it gives us time to rest up and hopefully get a few more bodies off the treatment table. but we are putting pressure on the teams above us and that 6 wins in 8 games. The quick turn around of games is building momentum. March is looking to be as manic as February with the postponement of Fleetwood and Accrington we are looking at another month of Saturday -Tuesday - Saturday. Hopefully with the postponement and the issues in Sheffield, today or tomorrow may be a rest day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) I had access to two season tickets in the Fleetwood end too. People in high places. They sit at the back of the stand. About 20 feet up, it's as high as it gets at Fleetwood. Edited February 21, 2022 by theowlsman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
