Jim Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 At the most only one result was going to go in our favour and that was Oxford’s defeat at Morecambe. This makes Oxford’s home game on Saturday against Sunderland a must win for them. I think the next week or two will be very interesting as both Rotherham and Oxford have found themselves in the Top 2/Top 6 respectively for much of the season and how they react to finding themselves out of those positions is going to be crucial to either’s cause. As for us, the usual suspects are predicting a collapse but as I’ve said before we’ve been relatively consistent over the season even though on the surface it may look like we haven’t been? I think we need to be looking at getting 3/4 points from the next 2 games. Do that and maybe the ones on here with a nervous disposition will be feeling better about our chances? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The teams that have the fewest mistakes will be the most successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a team game. Ultimately, all players could have done more to pick up more points, it's just that goalkeepers' errors are more obvious. But how many times have our strikers failed to hit the back of the net when they could have? How many opportunities to pick out a pass did our midfielders pass up? How many crosses did our defenders fail to cut out? etc... etc... And yet they all contributed to our current points really, as well. Heck, just in the past few games alone, Peacock-Farrell has pulled off vital saves which have almost certainly cancelled out any dropped directly due to his actions. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was very unlikely that both Oxford and Wycombe were going to lose. The former losing is a very good result and it puts massive pressure on both them and Sunderland this Saturday (play each other). a draw for oxford on saturday i think would mean we would need to lose 3 times for oxford to overtake us . its swinging around . i think wycombe now are looking the biggest threat now.

morganowl Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 afolayan of bolton went off injured last night and was a doubt for last nights game. thats good for us for saturday as he is very decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulrs Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Said on here yesterday I fancy Wycombe to be the biggest threat although I didn’t seem them hitting 4 at Cambridge who are very decent at home. Agree I make Oxford the outsiders now due to form and fixtures and I Still think Plymouth might blow it… be tough to get more than 4 or 5 points from their remaining matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorrallOwl17 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Dempsey, Santos and Afolayan all off injured with hamstring injuries. That's their best centre half, a centre mid, and their top scorer. Not a chance will any of them 3 be 100% fit in 3 days time, huge boost for us that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two absolutely crucial saves in the last 2 home games at critical times to keep us in front or level. Swings and roundabouts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
