maddog Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 Scrappy 1 goal victories. Exactly what the doctor ordered. Exactly what got us to the playoffs under Pearson. Excellent stuff. 3 points in the bag. And now within just 7 points of the playoffs. A ok position i feel considering the start. Roll on Barnsley next week. A win could take us above them.

I think that's a bit of an exaggeration. We got some scrappy 1 goal victories but we had some very good performances too. But like you say a wins a win especially when we are in this position in the league. Hopefully after a few more wins we'll be more confident and start to play better. Confidence is the key - I'm not going to believe Waghorn and Weale have become bad players overnight.
Bert Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 I think people are being a tad harsh on waghorn today. Not only was he up against a rock solid defender, but a defender who will know waggy inside out. I thought waggy did quite well against brown, put himself about even sat brown on his arse with his strength at one point. Can't say the team helped waggy's cause by jumping up long balls to him, brown's one of the best defenders in the league in the air.
FoxyPV Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 Glad to get a win. Going to watch the highlights later
accessory Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 Glad to get a win. Going to watch the highlights later That should take all of 30 seconds..
Guest bennytwohats Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 And now within just 7 points of the playoffs. A ok position i feel considering the start. Roll on Barnsley next week. A win could take us above them. we were only 8 points off when Sven took over. We've hardly come on leaps and bounds in terms of league position.
m00nie Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 That should take all of 30 seconds.. 30 seconds.. we didnt even get 10 on the football league show!!!! thought maneesh was a leicester fan...
Kitchandro Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 That should take all of 30 seconds.. Bit optimistic there, I timed it at a measly 10!
orangecity23 Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 That should take all of 30 seconds.. Not even that, they only showed the goal. Bloody BBC too busy bumming the Lambs
Kitchandro Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 Not even that, they only showed the goal. Bloody BBC too busy bumming the Lambs That's the first time I have ever seen them show just the goal on any match in any league. They could have at least shown a couple of the near misses for either side. That takes the piss
StanSP Posted 30 October 2010 Posted 30 October 2010 30 seconds.. we didnt even get 10 on the football league show!!!! thought maneesh was a leicester fan... Regardless of who he supports I doubt he has much say on how much coverage each team gets. His job is just to present and give Steve permission to get his sway on.

AlphaMaleFox Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 http://english.pravd...m/playboy-2048/ Couldn't have been that good. and blonde version CompareTheMeercat.com anyone? Anyway, Sian Massey, I still love You
poopbutt Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 gary would have found a way if it was motd.. he wouldnt have left us till last..... well ok.. he would have liked not to... we were always last and got next to zero air time the last time we were on motd. so not exactly true.
phildw Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 Good result and never really troubled by PNE despite a woeful performance by Weale doing his best to gift them a goal. Vitor was immense and showed he was different class as was Abe who oozed international class and is going to be a great asset for city. Hobbs still way off form and confidence starting with his slip in the first minute that should have been 1-0 PNE - shocking. Hopefully Davies back in defence next game along with Vitor for an unbeatable combination. Fryatt not interested, unfit, and looking nothing more than a league 1 player as was Waghorn unfotunately. Put a 3 million price tag on the head of a young lad and it has obviously affected him which is understandable. Send him out on loan to get his confidence and goal scoring back and he could still be a good player for us. So get rid of the waste - nguessan Oakley Morrison Kennedy Logan and bring in a goalkeeper (rensing?) and quality striker and alls good so well done Sven
MC Prussian Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 Couldn't be at the match. Glad we got the three points AND a clean sheet. Hopefully, the wins will now flock in. Preferrably continuing with Barnsley away.
jamesmilner Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 the blue lens glasses are out again ! we were poor yesterday , just lucky that preston are worse . we aren't going to get to the play-offs playing like that and winning the play-offs is miles away , it was just a very thin stepping stone beating a poor preston side, lets be honest . clean sheet was the only thing we can take out the game . not on a downer but watched the match in reality mode .they are crap !!!!!
m00nie Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 we were always last and got next to zero air time the last time we were on motd. so not exactly true. that s what i put

Or you could argue that since Mr Sousa has gone we are in play off form, check the stats we would be 6th so not that far from play offs as you may think. Oh and my glasses are rose tinted .
carterfox90 Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 an ugly win & 3 points preston were so there for the taking vitor was pure class very much like tunch clean sheet :scarf:
CosbehFox Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 Wasn't pretty. In fact one of the poorest games I've watched all season. But its about restoring a fractured squad confidence and getting some momentum. Our fitness is being shown up in a highly competitive division. Sven knows the score as illustrated in his interviews, he's picked out two players for praise who've either been in poor form or struggled with the culture difference. Lets see why we are come Christmas....got an ideal month to build a platform.
the_foxes_till_i_die Posted 31 October 2010 Posted 31 October 2010 has anybody got highlights? scanned through bbc iplayer but couldnt find it on football show!
