In pursuit of say maybe five wins, maybe less to reach the play offs ? |  |

Are we preparing to accept failure to get up automatically.? I feel we are. We have to be deeply honest with ourselves and accept this coach aint the answer.No way would he survive in Prem anyway.He would be eaten alive
No way can we be confident of beating a rampant cardiff under the astute stewardship of MM.
I just hope I am wrong starting tonight when I expect a heavy defeat with the same old story.Plenty of possession,not taking chances and seeing our keeper play another "blinder" putting the heebiejeebies up his young defenders.
My team to start,
Hamer
Roberts Marc Ben Bidwell
Arriola Korey Fulton Manning

The club has to go for top 2. The recent traumas of Swansea city are no different to those suffered by Norwich Brentford Reading Bournmouth and Watford. Some easy wins have been wasted it has to be said.
Brandon Cooper, Arriola, Manning and Smith can bring a lot of new energy and experience as starters to the run in. All other teams are also in the red zone and the top 6 will be losing points to each other and Cardiff city who are looking fresh after a mid season rest under Harris. |  |

Yes, it does.
We know how important momentum is in the championship. Just look at Cardiff at the minute for how quickly it can happen in terms of winning streaks, but it's just as easy for bad results to snowball too- ironically Cardiff have demonstrated that this season as well.
Given our last good all round performance (Norwich H) was a month ago, I think it's pretty easy to conceive of us going on a bad run of form. We're not playing well at the moment and it doesn't take much for the scrappy 1-0 results we have eked out to become losses. Then, the more games we lose, the harder it is to win the next one.
If your goal is Playoffs then you're probably right- even if we totally capitulate we should have enough to get us over the line. But we're still (believe it or not) in the driving seat for 2nd place and automatic promotion, and I'm not giving up on it yet. | | | |

It won't be the end of the world, still plenty of points to play for, obviously for a confidence boost it will be good to get something.
Which I think we will. |  |

To me,the players eem to have given it up.There is zero fire in the belly.No tempo.Woody,as I say,plays as if we are 1-0 up in a Euro final with ten men hanging on,from the off.
LOOK at him | |

In mathematical terms definitely not as far as the play offs are concerned but from both a confidence & belief perspective plus maintaining a shot at the automatic spots it’s important, in my opinion, we don’t lose.
If we were to win, particularly if it was relatively comfortable, then the mindset on here would swing back to a more positive setting - particularly if Brentford & Watford dropped points! | | | |

Im off to specsavers ...having watched Saturdays game and in particlar the second half again ( watched this 4 times )Im seeing totally different views to everyone else...even with 10 mins to go at 1-2 there is an urgency...at 1-1 Geuhi isd in the box and just misses a header to put us 2-1 up.
Apparantly Bristol were pressuring us....just after the ball is with Woody at his feet no Bristol player harrassing him putting pressure on him....Palmer talks of how they targeted Woody yet their first corner in the second half when they "took control" was a short one and there was no sign of Freddie being targeted there.
Oh well....never mind .....fingers crossed for a result tonight otherwise again there will be those baying for Coopers head. | |

Fingers crossed for our team.
Cooper is not relevant apart from his being in charge of the team.
His career should not matter to us | |

We played well first half without being able to score.
Second half we suffered 3 brain farts resulting in 3 goals against. Bristol C did not create anything, although they did take the first goal very well, and it was a peach of a corner. But we were not under constant attacking pressure from them, and continued to be the better team going forward.
So talk of their ‘coach out thinking our coach’ is so much pseudo waffle. We beat ourselves. |  | | |

Not being able to score
Somehow,they managed to score three goals.
They havent been playing very well.
I d suggest their manager had a say. | |

I'd say if our target is the play offs, then losing tonight's game wouldn't be a disaster, but, if we hope to avoid the lottery of the play offs, tonight is a vital game. |  |

With respect, how could their manager have a say unless he could foresee that we would have 3 defensive brain farts? They did nothing other than capitalise on our mistakes. I repeat , we beat ourselves. The only shrewd move their manager made, was substituting a red-card-waiting-to-happen just before half-time. | | | |

Is 5 wins enough to guarantee a play off place? I don't think we can presume that. The aim should be to win as many as possible surely? Even if only to take confidence and momentum into the play offs.
What if we won the next 5 games, would we be happy to lose the rest (if we were guaranteed our spot) and take that form into the play offs? I don't think anyone would say yes to that.
We still have to try and claim an automatic spot, lets not lack ambition now. | |

IMO not the end of the world in terms of where we'll finish , probably more so in getting the confidence back , hopefully lessons learnt and on we go for a good run in | |

Palmer ex Swansea player takes a corner, the box is cleverly overloaded by brist city. That was tactically sound. That was our set piece work , goal. |  |

We can't afford to lose it. We have to stay up there.
If we keep losing we will soon be out of the top 6. |  |
