Would you want Taylor in the heat of battle in potential play offs? Would rather Hause back there I think as that would help us play from the back more. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will get some bad luck, we'll probably pick up a couple of injuries, but so long as Jack stays fit we really do have a shot now. We've had enough bad luck to last 2 seasons now. I'm hoping it's the opposite and our golden run has begun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game is there to be won Saturday . They are on the ropes a bit, weird side, they don't look good but always do enough to be just inside the play offs but miles off automatic, atmosphere looks toxic there right now. Roundly booed preston equaliser. Ayala also sent off and will miss our game although if there's one area of the pitch where they're not short of player it's in defence!

villalad21 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 We are pushing for promotion. Axel is still a kid and will make mistakes. Can't afford that at this stage of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor has done ok but he is still a liability. He defended well today though. Edited March 13, 2019 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) What we have right now that the others don't have is squad depth. Derby basically relied on 2 kids all season in Mount and Wilson to win them games. One is injured, the other gone quiet. Bristol City - very thin squad. They can't afford to rotate their squad, though they don't play for weeks now, could just be what they need. We are right in this but can't afford the luxury of where we were this time last year. Think we were 4th. Chasing is a different ball game. Edited March 13, 2019 by Johnnyp Mistake 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously will be great to have options on the bench in case his form drops during the run in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilko154 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Thinking about this more, we really do have to pull ourselves clear in 5th or 6th in case we drop points against Leeds & Norwich. That would be soul destroying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Reading other fans' forums, and everyone has us favourites for 6th if not 5th. Can't lie, we do look the business when Jack is playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Oh......preston won. !!! Jeez. Happy days indeed. ( though another we've to keep an eye on ) hope Neil goes to the baggies. Derail Preston a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
