Playoffs here we come

[northpie1862]

The thing is we never seem to go for it. Even when we are losing with minutes to go, we still play as though there is 90 minutes still to play. We dont have anyone in the team prepared to bust a gut to get us back into it.. They always say a dog owner looks like his dog. In our case the team reflect Maynard...

We have scored 13 goals in the last 15 mins of games - which is in the top part of the league, so to suggest we whimper in the last part of games is a lie really and probably just based off the pretty limp effort last weekend.

Its fair to say that SM has made us more calm / balanced / 'safe' than the basket case on the pitch gung ho team we were last season but that has been to our benefit in the most part. Theres only really Salford and Wimbledon away where weve been comfortably beaten.

The frustration for most fans is that weve been edged out by the odd goal in some of the high profile games against top 7 teams, (Port Vale Twice, Walsall twice). But we are still sat in a great position, just need to focus on being on the right side of those games against Bradford and Doncaster (of whom weve already got 4 points against) and see where we end up.

Were you at FGR last season, the game was into the last minute of added time, we were losing 1-0. We had a corner, and instead of trying to get a last second equaliser we passed it back. The ref blew the whistle. And that is the attitude that we still have, unless you are watching a different game to me...
