Exeter, Reading & Cheltenham all involved this evening as they start playing catch up to us...
a win for Exeter would drop us to 20th.

We certainly need Bristol Rovers, Bolton and Derby to win these games.

We certainly need Bristol Rovers, Bolton and Derby to win these games. For starters! It will at least bring Exeter level on games played.

So that's a shocking start to the evening.

If Charlton lose tonight, they'll have the same number of points as us from the same number of games.
Exeter are currently on 30 points from 28 games. Burton are on 31 points from 28 games - but unlike us they are signing players.

We shouldnt need to be worried.
The saviour is heading back to us by all accounts. Let's hope he turns things around.

Hopefully, Reading will be hit with more points deductions as their Chairman is continually failing to pay the wages. Our games against Carlisle, Exeter, Reading and Charlton are going to be vital.

No tennis ball protest at Reading yet? I have heard if Reading have another fan protest they will be hit with point deductions. 24th Feb we are away to Reading. Anyone else want to join me in giving out free tennis balls to the Reading fans?

Well, no thanks to either Derby or Bristol Rovers.Perhaps the latter could be dragged into the relegation dogfight.
And dogfight it is, with 7 teams from 14th to 20th separated by one point.

Had a look in at the Reading Derby game and whilst the Derby commentary team were keen to stress that they thought Derby were having an off night, Reading were decent enough and well worth the three points. It certainly wasn't a fluke result.
So whilst we might look to the likes of Fleetwood and maybe Carlisle as done and dusted that's certainly not the case with Reading looking to their performance tonight.
We needed to change, if anything we perhaps ought to have done so sooner looking to the table tonight. As when we were talking earlier in the season about there being four sides worse then us I don't think that's the case at the minute.

Anyone else want to join me in giving out free tennis balls to the Reading fans? If I understood it right the home support were silent until the 16th minute and then there was a round of applause (which the Derby fans joined in with) and then business as usual from the stands. There was one tennis ball thrown onto the pitch apparently but they reckon it came from the Derby end. So whatever was said to them seems to have worked.

Bit too early to be worrying about other teams results. Certainly too early to be wishing a points deduction on another team.

Well that was a ****ing disaster of an evening. Agreed I hope we don’t come to regret not sacking Taylor after the Blackpool away shambles, or at the very least after the Cheltenham / Burton away Christmas shambles

At least last nights results should convince the few who did not believe it ,that we are in a relegation scrap now I think the kindest thing we can say about the last months events off the field is that they have not been handled very well Would be nice to get a manager in today

Doesn’t matter if we are fighting relegation or promotion the mindset of the club should always be the same - we want to win.
We should never have to rely on results elsewhere because we can’t control them - we can only control our own results and attitudes.
