Next 4 games will make or break us. All look winnable, but if we pick up 10 points, sets up the last 4 games nicely.

Mostly poor performance, but massive win. Let’s never think about it again

[Osborne again]

Well done Michael Jacobs for taking a shot at goal.

Despite the wrist slitters, that was a good win against an inform side in difficult conditions

So by your definition moaning about a poor performance is wrist slitting

Metcalfe the man of the match - the only one who could pass straight in the first half and do it with some pace

If anyone is actually paying attention we are the current team at the top of the form table over the last 6 games.

[The Earl of Chesterfield]

Well watching the tide ebb and flow behind the ground was more entertaining for the most part.

But we dragged three points out the North west coast mud to go seven behind fourth with a game in hand.

And extended our run of form - at exactly the right time - to thirteen from fifteen.

Are we good enough to go up, though?

Realistically?

Dunno. However I said back in Aug' having a sniff of the play offs with a couple to go would be a worthwhile season.

Meanwhile some of us remember nineteen ninety*...


*Snook into the play offs final day, hammered a Stockport who'd finished nearly twenty points above us in the semi, then only lost to Dion Dublin converting a corner that never was at Wembley...

7 behind with 8 to play I think is too much but we’re extending to season with every point on the board.

Go again Tuesday

It was curling in and would've tested the keeper - his goal

curling in lol,it might not have had the power to go over the line,keeper could have chucked his cap on it ,if he was wearing one

Well done that man Michael Jacobs. Never ever understood the fraction of the fanbase that hammer him. Yes he probably hasn’t pulled up the trees we all expected when we signed him given the career he’s had, but he’s always given 100% and was part of the squad that got us back to the EFL and played in plenty of big games last year.

Huge win, keeps the slim hope alive, but at least keeps the back end of season much more interesting than we thought it might be a few weeks back.

I drove from Bielefeld for that game. The drive back was horrible.

because for a player who had played much higher up he has been awful,if he had been any good cook would have picked him and he hasnt,that tells you everything,so i will guess the majority of the fanbase who think he has been a less than inspired signing are correct

He hasn't been awful. You're just not very mature

With a game in hand…..still think 6 wins will do it. 3 of next 4 are at home too.

Out of the current positions 4 5 6 7 we can beat any of em in a play off. As for getting there, our superior GD might help

no,im just not a lemming like most on here,id have preferred a much younger striker on a 3 year deal with sell on potential,if you think grigg will be any good next year, you live in cloud cuckoo land
