Keep Calm & Carry On !!

Nothing today gave me any major concerns for the rest of the season. We have played a lot worse and won !!

Today's result flattered forest

Agree totally. Misread your initial post. We will turn this around.

Yep 1 win from the last 7 is nothing to worry about.

I am in the calm brigade, there were plenty of positives today.

Sorry can you name 5, actually 3 or even 1?

had a few of those in recent years, haven't we ?

 

[Baron Pepperpot]

I enjoyed the game.

I do worry that we don't have the talent to play Oscar's one touch system though. We'll see when we're back to full strength.

I am concerned that our recent run of performances have been poor and we don't look like winning games

I actually walked out pretty happy after today's game despite the loss, it was a hell of a lot more promising the Tuesdays shitshow. Keep playing like that's and get some of our injured players back and we'll be alright comfortable mid table a year for Oscar to learn this league and the training ground opening in the summer wil hopefully reduce the no of injuries.

We went on similar runs with Poyet.

Just out of interest, what position were palace this time last year, or reading the year before

I disagree on the first part as I felt more depressed today than Tuesday today we did 75% of the job but failed in the last quarter where as Tuesday was dire so expected the poor result. If we play like today week in week out we will have problems, teams sit back wait for us to knock it around and then when we eventually lose it hit us and have a shot on target often resulting in a goal. Our problem is we are toothless in front of goal we will get no where while we can't score. Don t get me wrong it's not all doom and gloom and we are suffering with the injuries but until we learn to punish teams while we are on top we will have problems.

Exactly. I think Reading were 18th at Christmas before they went on their run. I'm not saying we'll do the same but with Bridcutt, Orlandi and Ulloa back...

Absolutely nothing to worry about.
Forest played a good game. At 1-2 I fancied us to go on and win. It wasn't to be but we all know what the missing link is. We will quickly move up this league once the injured are back. Keep the faith.

We don't score enough goals, it's as simple as that. If we concede 1 goal in 20 games for the rest of the season, then that's 20 occasions where we need to score 2 or more to win the game. Who's going to score them,,Barnes Don't make me laugh. I only remember the keeper making 1 save of any note today and by the look of Ulloa, he won't be back anytime before xmas. We need a striker and we need him by yesterday or else we are in serious trouble.

First Half performance was pretty good, but ultimately we collapsed and payed the price. Its that old cliche - "Its a game of two halves".

If we STILL keep missing vital chances then we will get nowhere soon. I'm not worried yet, though I'll start to get worried if we fail to beat Yeovil.

This board is all about opinions, some of which are pretty knee jerk extreme. But i totally agree with the above post.
We looked ok today, but got undone by a team who were better than us, and will be somewhere around the top 6 at the end of the season. We had a shit summer due to circumstances, and this will have to be a consolidation season, but we shouldn't go down. There are at least 7 teams who should, and(I hope) will be below us, come the end of May
