Tough game for Bolton tomorrow

Would expect Bradford to win but at this point of the season I think predicting results is just impossible with all the different nuances that go on between different clubs and different ends of the table

Bolton can't string a run of results together, lost to port vale last game. Fair play that is a good win today though. No need to panic we couldn't hope to be in a better position with 7 games left. Bolton got a tough run in too.

Brilliant result for Bolton, fair play. Would have expected Bradford, Stockport and Lincoln to win their home games.

I still don't see us not being top two because don't see Bolton, Bradford or Stockport going on the run they'll have to.

Bolton v Stockport on Monday so at least one of them will drop points.

We're eight points clear with a game in hand. Maximum of 10 points for promotion but really six is probably enough.

So it's no massive concern. We'll be promoted at some point this month.

We, can't rely on other teams.
We, need to start scoring & winning

As good as Lincoln have been the handball for their winner is an absolute joke!! They've seemed to have had the rub of the green with the officials where we've had the complete opposite.

Agree - I'm concerned being honest. Our form has been a mixed bag at best and apart from Exeter away, the goals have dried up and haven't scored at home for 3 consecutive matches. If I was Bolton, I'd be feeling increasingly confident about chasing us down due to our shakey form. Stockport on a roll too.

We may just have enough points already?

If Bolton win on Monday and we fail to beat Peterboro, they will be coming to us next Saturday full of confidence that a win will put them 3, or maybe only 2 points behind us with 4 games for them & 5 games for us to go. That was a big win for them today with 10 men for the whole of the second half. We have to get our act together and not let any of that happen. We are still firmly in the driving seat, but we can afford no more slip ups. :shock:

Fair play to the chasing pack, perhaps they still smell those top 2 places and why wouldnt they. Will make for a good finish if they can keep the pressure on.

Time to properly earn your reddies BBM and the boys...let's see what your really made of...when it really matters.

Nowhere near. The only team that do is Lincoln.

Unless we get our act together with good form right now, that 2nd spot is not out of sight for the chasing pack.

As long as we do what we need to and should do anyway, we will be fine, if we can’t, we don’t deserve to go up, simple

Joke or not, that’s pathetic! It makes you sound like you’d LIKE it to happen and no true Bluebird would want that! :roll:

Worry about Tan away from important games to come and think positively that it’s all still in our own hands! :thumbright:

Come on you Bloooobirds! :bluebird: :bluescarf: :ayatollah:
