dsfbrit Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Last minute Charlies , but what a fantastic 1 - 0 result for Forest against Swansea. Most of the other results went in their favour as well.14 points clear of the 7th placed team - that should secure a play-off place Couldn't agree more. If the Baggies (?) do get second place - where can a Forest fan go and watch the play-offs?? any ideas?? I live in Pattaya, but anywhere in Thailand would be worth the trip...

Macclad Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Macclesfield Town 2 Bury 0 Another excellent result for the Silkmen over third placed Bury and also doing our neighbours,table topping Rochdale,a favour in the process ! Macc now 11 points off the relegation zone with a game in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastSaxCol Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Carlisle United FC (CUFC) 2 Colchester United FC (CUFC) 1 Not the best time in the season to take a blip in form, losing against 10 men Carlisle for most of the game (Taiwo around 30 minues), on top of an away defeat against Bristol Rovers and a dire home home performance against Brighton last Tuesday. The U's have now slipped to 5th in the table and unless Boothroyd sorts it out, the U's could well slip out of the play-offs altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonrakers Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Brighton 0 - 1 Swindon Very good away win to one of the leagues form teams which puts a stop to our mini losing run. Other results around us go our way put us back into a strong position. A big month coming up with matches against the top teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xangsamhua Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Notts County 2 - 2 AFC Bournemouth Cotterill's winning run ends with a 2-2 draw against the Cherries at Meadow Lane. County now 3rd with games in hand. Hughes will be out for a couple of games courtesy of a handled ball. Some say the man is just brainless; others that it was a professional booking, so he'd be back for the bigger games later. Yet others suggest the League may investigate the handball for that possible reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbojangles Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Good news for one of Rochdales lads. From skysports:- Dawson scoops award Young defender receives Football League award recognition Rochdale defender Craig Dawson has been rewarded for his stunning form this season by being named as the League Two Player of the Year at Sunday night's Football League Awards in London. The 19-year-old only made his professional debut on the opening day of the season, but has scored a staggering 11 goals in helping Dale look likely to secure a first promotion since 1969. Commenting on the award, outgoing Football League chairman Lord Mawhinney said: "Once again these awards have given us the opportunity to honour those clubs and individuals whose commitment to the game or their local community goes beyond the call of duty. "The fifth Football League Awards have been an enormous success, and I congratulate all the winners on their achievements." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonrakers Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Southampton 0 - 1 Swindon A fantastic result away from home with an injury ravaged squad.

Moonrakers Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 ^ We are only 5 points adrift to Leeds and will be playing them soon. We are in form, they are not. If we maintain our current form then it is very achievable. If it is not us then it will be Millwall taking 2nd spot, it looks like the play-offs for Leeds again this season if they don't get their act together.

It's not Leeds that I'm worried about, although if we stay down I'd be glad to see the back of them - it's Millwall that worry me most (apart from ColU dropping out of it altogether). I honestly don't think that you'll make the other automatic promotion place but looking good for a play-off place at the moment. But as you've said , there's a few twists and turns to go yet. If we hadn't lost form over the past few games our run-in would have put us in a very promising position as it looks better than the rest. But who would have put money on you beating Sothampton, not me and that's for sure. As it stands though, if we don't get a result and lose against Wallsall tomorrow then I'd be very worried.

Moonrakers Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Swindon 1 - 1 Norwich A late late equaliser from us. I'd have taken a point before the match. Leeds v Millwall is a massive game for the teams at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastSaxCol Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) ColU 3 Brentford 3 After two depressing away defeats - both against 10 men - this was at least a spirited display. After going down 2-0 in a half hour that witnessed what must the worse play by any team since the invention of football, the U's managed to equalise and looked very capable of winning. The three points would have been better of course. But hopefully the confidence amongst the players will be boosted again now , and we can sting results together that will secure our play-off place.

Needless to say, a lot of U's supporters are far from happy about his style of play and tactics. On he plus side I suppose, loanee Quedrue from Birmingham had an excellent game.

Moonrakers Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Massive game away at Leeds today. With Millwall managing only a single point last night a win for us, which is very possible, will put us into second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
