Doncaster Rovers vs Reading *** Official Thread ***

[Rugrat]

Home to Wigan next week

So now need to add Blackpool (and Brum Tues) to desired winners so they (might) still have something to play for

That late Stephens goal at Blackburn could be crucial come the last game.

Far far too early to think about this but hey why not ...

A draw might be enough...

I think some people are getting a bit carried away, if the scores somehow stay as they are we'd only realistically need a point against Forest to make 6th. Not all the scores can go in our favour, not really bothered about Watford and Blackburn!

Half time table

Leicester 99
Burnley 92
------------
Derby 82
QPR 77
Wigan 71
Brighton 69
---------------
Reading 67
Blackburn 67
Bournemouth 66
Nottm Forest 65

I'd be ecstatically happy with that come 5 o'clock

 

[Rugrat]

to be honest. If Albion draw next week doesn't matter what Blackburn do as things currently stand. They can't make up the goal difference.

I think we're better off letting others determine our fate

Charlton win please!!

We just need to win against Forest... forget all this draw business.

Positivity please! I hate all this nervousness.

Currently as things stand - nearly at half time

4 QPR 45 15 77
5 Wigan 44 15 71
6 Brighton 45 14 69
7 Reading 45 11 67
8 Blackburn 45 6 67
9 Bourn 45 0 66
10 NF 45 7 65

oh blimey.

This pretty much means a point will do against Forest. Please can things stay as they are. Please.

O/T but the relegation battle in League 2 is getting exciting. Northampton winning putting both Bristol Rovers and Wycombe in trouble who happen to be playing against each other. Currently 1-1.

that is the worst possible scenario ...we go to forest for a point , we get **** all....and that is a fact.

Apparently Reading haven't come back to win from a losing position for 44 games. Sounds Familiar.

Agreed. We should go into the Forest game looking to win; hoping/playing for a draw is a dangerous game that teams often lose!

Is there ANYTHING more NERVE-WRACKING than watching the Albion TRYING to achieve a draw?

disagree.....going there needing to win creates gaps and nervousness - needing only a draw against a team with nothing to play for is perfect.

watching your 14 year old daughter giving birth....

sorry is it a competition...

 

[murraymints4brighton]

So much can happen in the next 45 minutes. A win against Forest is absolutely crucial although seeing as we have been plodding along all season I reckon we will more than likely draw up there.

We would have had to get a point at worst regardless of the results today.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Yeah and we only needed a win at home against Blackpool

If we can't at least get a draw at Forest with what's at stake then we don't deserve to be in the play-offs anyway.
