Title: is it too early?
Post by: DV on Friday, October 6, 2006, 22:14:49
...to claim tomorrow is a must win game...

down to 4th below Wycombe and Lincoln after tonights games, and Walsall have gained another point.

A win tomorrow would lift us back up to 2nd and 1point off top

If we dont win Notts County could jump above us...

If we don't win tomorrow, we'll never get promoted.

Obviously.

I just think we have to win tomorrow.....

the top 4/5 teams look really strong and all have started off pretty well....average 2 points a game and your champions...at the moment there are about 4 teams averaging that.

We need to keep up with the pack, if they keeping winning so must we....and it does seem along time since we won to!!

Yep defo a must win game tomorrow.  Against Wycombe and Notts County we played 2 of the better league 2 sides so draws were good. Whilst Accrington may be no mugs  (beat Wycombe last week at home), we need to beat them to keep in contention

This league's too inconsistent, so no win tomorrow wouldn't be the end of the world.

Saying that though, it would be a good start to getting us back on track. Three draws and a loss from the last four isn't exactly automatic promotion form.

The last game i was at was peterbourgh, so im just hoping for an improvement on that. Surely it cant be any worse?

What happens on the pitch is of little consequence to the real battle for the soul of the club......I'd be very surprised with anything other than a defeat tomorrow.

 So yes its too  early to consider tomorrow a must win game.

i wouldn't label it "must win" but its damn important we get the win today. we can't afford to keep dropping points and slipping back now. as it happens i also think we will lose today

Could get away with a draw, but really need a win, after 2 points in 2 games.

A draw wouldn't be a disaster but the win would put us back one place off top and would be a huge morale booster for players and fans alike.

NOT a must win game but definitely one that will make a difference should we win it. And I think we will

A draw would be a good result for me

The problem with a draw is that our last 5 games would be:
L D D D D

That's a hell of a slump, 4 points from 5 games. See VD's point, we actually need a win.

I think we should be concentrating on the paint trophy. Maybe we should field reserve/youth teams for the league matches running up to the big game at Adams Park.

I agree

on reflection, after the game....I still dont think a draw was good enough.

The results against Peterborough and Boston are the only ones I'd not be happy about come May.
