We aren't good enough against the top teams in this divison, we've given lincoln 6 points, Bolton 3 so far, Bradford came here and won. Hopefully the results against the rest means it wont matter but wycombe and Bolton home games are now a test for BBM

Which means we are not good enough to make much impression in the Championship without a big recruitment.

Good job the league table isn't decided just by those games then.

Honestly don't know when our fans decided to be negative for the sake of it.

Especially this OP, who seems to have been missing since the Newport game months ago.

Must've been hard for some fans watching us do so well this season

Agree, if we do get promoted and don't heavily invest in better players, we'll be straight back down with a whimper like last season. Some of the squad are simply not good enough at the higher levels.

I think we would be better off playing teams that try to play football. We struggle against these physical route one counter attacking teams.

Utter crap being talked here, Lincoln played Warnock ball today we are always going to struggle with that playing the way do it's the perfect counter to it. We also went to Wrexham a playoff championship team and wiped the floor with them, one game means nothing

The referees are no better.

Lincoln and Cardiff wouldn’t get relegated from the championship I don’t think.

We be ok in the championship with our squad under Murphy. As long as we get rid of Rubin, we trying to build our team around him and he is just no where near good enough. He was the problem today.
I’ve read some say he premier league quality I’ve not seen it and we never had an offer for not even from a championship club this season. As sad as it is for the club to improve he needs to move on for everyone’s benefit b

If Stockport get pipped to the playoffs we could end up with 6 wins and 4 defeats against the top 6. That's not bad.

You could say the same when we did not beat 3 clubs who were in the bottom 3 this season .
