    At start of season most people didn't think Byrne and Baldwin in defence were much of a upgrade on what we had , when cook was injured I would guess most wanted a striker like smith at Swindon and also alot couldn't understand why we couldn't sign one defensive midfielder .all these things didn't happen .now how did we get to two games to go and still in with a chance of going up is unbelievable. Let's hope are luck continues for last two games and we see how do it

    It’s time to put our nerves aside and get right behind the lads. This is our team and right now they need us more than ever. There will be 1,500+ of our fellow brothers and sisters cheering and singing until they are hoarse. We have to support them all by being positive. Forget stats on this that and the other, it is nearly time to play footie on the green stuff where it matters.

    I am a great believer in karma and McCann may have scored a home goal metaphorically. We could have filled their away end but no he is frightened of the impact a full away end would do to his team. Ok McCann on your own head be it.

    I'm treating the remainder of the season, as us effectively qualifying for 2 play offs:
    Play off one is a semi-final v Doncaster, hopefully followed by a final v Fleetwood.
    Play off two is a second chance that we can avoid by doing the job tomorrow and the following Saturday.

    Let's get this done first time.

    Would love to just see him on the bench even if he can't play just to get into the head of McCann. McCann must be easily rattled if he thinks a few thousand City fans is the difference between success and failure anyhow seeing as we have been rinsed in most games where we have had a +2k following.

    OMG. How is he running already. What a lift for the fans. He cannot possibly play, can he?

    He looks more of a goal threat in that 3 second clip than Tommy Leigh has done all season.

    I mean he is running in a straight line thats all. There is no twisting or turning and he won't be physical at all but as you have 7 players on your bench and you can only use five, just stick him on there anyhow for mind games.

    I have said for the past few weeks keep molyneux quiet and Donny are nothing just like mcgoldrick with Notts that is where the game will be won or lost. Let him dictate we don't win it's that simple

    Man to man marking him would nullify our game in my book . Collectively everyone needs to do their job .

    Seems they’ve sold out of their tickets now but have left 2000 empty seats behind the goal. How stupid. Their message board is a joke. People saying they predict a third straight 3-0 home win.

    Do you have the address of the City fan who sold you a ticket for the Doncaster game, we might want to call round if you keep your record up with regards our away form when you've attended.

    It would certainly be an interesting choice for the bench, who knows how McCann would see it. credit to him in his Bradford City post match interview he was very polite with regards his comments about our team.

    No unfortunately he’s back, he’s another nemesis just like Keith Edwards.

    Unfortunately on Alexander post match video with regards the Doncaster game he commented we don't go man to man marking we do our own thing and when we do it correctly were more than a match for anyone, no matter how the game goes tomorrow when ever possible if we need to make substitution we need to go like for like.
    This would be my squad for Doncaster : Doncaaster Team.jpg
