3 Only 3 Goals?

Post by BlueAngel » Sun Mar 15, 2026 7:36 pm

10 games left…
IF we can PLEASE stop any Defensive errors and not concede another goal. That would be 10 pts. THEN encourage our woeful strike force to manage 3 (Three) Goals in the ten games we would have 16 more points……1.6 pts per game SAFETY would come our way.. Is it too much to ask. Defence do their job. Attack contribution.. Come on Lads ..3 Goals in 930 minutes?

Ive annoyed too many people by looking into the different permutations so im just going to go with the philosophy of " just do better than the bottom two teams"
I'm angry as hell that this team has put us in this situation but begrudgingly I will fork out even more money and go to Salford and try not to lose my shit when we get beat 3 nil.

We cannot draw our way out of this. As encouraging as the performance was against Accrington we didn't create any clear cut chances.
In the wise words of Sir Alex, if you are losing / drawing with 15 minutes to go and you need the win, you've got to take bigger risks, you have to abandon formation, look to create chaos, look to overload the opposition penalty box and get balls and bodies into the box and you have to commit and accept the risk of counter attacks. This, gets the crowd charged, creating an electric end to the game, with the reward far greater than the chance of conceding.

Don’t take a striker off late on, get them all on if the games going away from us,

We need wins!!

We put 4 strikers on against Bristol Rovers and it was chaos; we had Rose on the left wing, Gordon on the right wing

Great idea this.

Score more than the other team and don’t concede.

You fancy Iain Wood’s job?

As CEO? Not sure that would get us very far. I thought this would have been Sam Foley's remit.
Don't let the old man in.

Well.. That idea didn’t work.. Didn’t realise/remember how disoriented/shi🍸e the defence was.. Attack ok. 1 of the 3 goals scored.. only 850 mins to get the other two
