What a relief, shame Norwich snatched a win though.

Hopefully the win will be a real kickstart, sounds like it was an improved performance and not just Oldham playing like their league position. Aidy White seemed to add more than McSheffrey too.

Also idk what everyone else does in regards to following games but there seems to be a good regular radio link up on ustream.

I subscribe to LUTV. I haven't listened to many games this season though as my work commitments prevent me from getting up early in the morning to listen to them.

I don't miss a game on Foxtel when they show our Sky Sports-televised games over here. Unfortunately that is very rarely.

What's the latest with Beckford?

Any chance of a contract extension?
 
Looked absolutely dire in the parts I was able to watch this morning, this ain't no slump anymore. Midfield was completely overrun, Snodgrass looked like the only one who was attempting to create. And poor Paddy, out of all the players it could happen to.

We are ****ed. :(
 
Just where do you start on such an inept performance?

- Ankergren is a clown. Both goals totally preventable. The second was embarrassing. I don't care how poor condition Shane Higgs is in, he must start.

- Losing Kisnorbo so early was a huge blow, but that defence looked like a complete set of strangers had been thrown together.

- Midfield overrun from the get go. Howson flashes in and out but with little end product. Doyle was anonymous. Snoddy tried hard, but once again, no end product, Bradley Johnson is ordinary and has been since the first few months of the season. Kilkenny needs to play every bloody game. He's the only creative midfielder we have.

- Up front. Without Beckford we are devoid of any ideas. It's an indictment that Paul Dickov was probably our best player and he was just ok. Becchio spent more time on the ground than on his feet, while both struggled to deal with the monotonous and ultimately futile tactic of hoofball. But as our midfield were completely dominated the defence had no alternative at times. What does Mike Grella have to do to get a game?

- As for the lack of heart, this to me was the biggest worry. There was only one side who wanted it and they weren't wearing white. A massive chance to move seven points clear in second and we choked. As much as supporters want to blame Bates for an apparent lack of investment in a playing squad that was dominating the league for the first 5 months, you can't blame him for the weak and gutless performance this morning. This is down to the manager and the players themselves.

All of a sudden a dream season is turning into a recurring nightmare, with an all too familar ending.

Its like watching a car crash at the moment.

Live on FoxSports tomorrow night for the Yeovil game. I'm almost too scared to watch...
 
Another relatively unconvincing win against poor opposition, though just as important was Swindon going down to Colchester. You'd think there's some chance of Millwall dropping points this week too as they travel to Yeovil and then Huddersfield.

But perhaps the biggest news is the prospect of one Mr Lowy stepping in, though Kenneth will surely frighten him away soon enough.
 
As I post this, we are 3-1 up at Carlisle, and Millwall losing 1-0 at Yeovil. Without trying to jinx it, some luck at last?
 
Have we turned the corner?

Despite Millwall getting a late equaliser, it was definitely 2pts dropped as it was for Swindon the previous night so the results were very good to us. I was surprised we beat Carlisle so comfortably. It was worth the early rise to listen to it.

Huddersfield v Millwall on Saturday morning our time, hopefully Huddersfield will continue on from their dramatic win this morning and beat them and we do the job at Gillingham, which won't be easy as their home form is very good.

Big game for the lads against MK Dons this weekend.

Hopefully the lads can turn around the rubbish performance aganst Gillingham and further cement our automatic promotion spot.

We seem to be doing a very similar thing to what Liverpool did last season where we play like world champions against decent teams(Swindon game aside) but play rubbish against rubbish opposition(Gillingham,Wallsall etc.)

Hopefully Beckford's goal will be the start of another mountain of goals from him before the season ends.

Was watching Foxtel today and stumbled across the ad for this weeks matches and noticed they are showing our game against Charlton this week through the Viewers Choice function.

Didn't know the game was being covered in the UK, so it's a nice surprise. Now to get the 3pts.

I was looking at one of the UK Forums yesterday and they were saying that they can't see this game live over there. So this is a bonus.

Are you able to record Viewers Choice games? :confused:
