Title: February
Post by: Bob's Orange on Monday, February 2, 2015, 12:14:55
So looking at the fixtures pinned up on my work desk, it appears on paper that February we have some 'easier' fixtures. They are :-

Barnsley (H)
Oldham (A)
Scunny (A)
Crawley (H)
Bradford (H)
Crewe (A)

I reckon if we are going to continue to make our presence felt in the top 2, we need to be picking up 12-15 points. I would hope to win all of the home matches and pick up some points in 3 tricky looking away matches up north. I did fear that Crewe were turning a corner, but Franchise walloped them on Saturday so its time we did something similar!

Scunny away is likely to be the trickiest, but knowing Swindon we'll win that one at lose at home to Crawley.

Barnsley is a must win game  :) with the top 2 playing each other.

As ever take each game as it comes....when you've just lost, the important thing is to get back winning straight away.

Barnsley are very up and down....assuming we've still got Mass and Kas, can't really see either being mentally ready for Saturday, even if Cooper is tempted.

Takes at least a week to get back to normal after flying back from there, does me anyway.

Good options to have on the bench though.

Not technically in Feb but does anyone know when the Walsall home game is likely to be moved to? Perhaps we could swap the Doncaster and Walsall matches and play Walsall at home on the Tuesday 17th March and Donny away on the Saturday 21st March. Not sure if that is allowed/possible.

Would be ideal if we could, bu there's bound to be a rule against it.

Bradford at home at the end of the month on a Tuesday night could end up being moved if their 5th Round game goes to a replay.

Looks like 82 Ltd are taking up to 5000 to MK saturday. To be fair that's a very good effort.

That's 'cause they have no morales, what with their 1982 cheating and the breaking of 'keepers arms ;)

Although I would prefer a City win as far as we are concerned, I've got a feeling they are going to get smashed.

Meltdown!
