[Archived] News Article -> Rovers interview Joyce

So what a rubbish night of football that was. I guess Coleman is now free to be appointed at Ewood... (only being annoying, sorry)

Russian betting syndicate?

Seems Stanley more than held their own until the 94th minute when Wimbledon had their first shot on target. Nervous night in Accy and a 0-1 deficit to overcome.
-
Gutting for Stanley. Bristol Rovers scoring in added time to knock them out of an automatic promotion slot. Would fancy them against Wimbledon but they will be swamped by opposition support at Wembley whichever of Pompey and Plymouth win through the other semi-final. Got to be long shot outsiders for promotion now.
-
Have to regard this as the one and only chance for Accy- got to go for it!
-
Just need to avoid screwing up against Stevenage and they are there!
-
This is a little sad of me but it suddenly struck me that if Accy get promoted, the Accy-Bolton game will set a world record gap between competitive fixtures. The last previous meeting was in the 1892/3 season... A little matter of waiting 118 years for settling a local rivalry.
-
Probably need three wins as both Oxford and Bristol Rovers are capable of getting three wins from their remaining games.

Accy in 3rd automatic promotion slot...
-
MK Dons lost so they are still 9 points behind us with just 7 games to play.
-
With Fulham playing MK Dons, the worse that can happen is we will only be one point closer to the drop zone. PNE on the other hand are just 6 points off the play-offs. Surely not???
-
Stanley won at Newport 2-0. Fourth and one point from third. More importantly, 11 points clear of 8th with just 7 games to go so play-offs look reasonably assured.
-
Careful, folks in Accrington will be thinking they have entered the twentieth century next ._.._ _..

Just as there were too many clubs between us and the playoffs for one (Sheff Weds as it turned out) not to go on a good run, there are now too many clubs between us and 24th for one worse off than us not to go on a bad run. With eight games remaining, there are enough bad sides in this division for us to pick up the six or seven points to be absolutely safe even if we go back to playing like dogs. Let's be relieved Bowyer was sacked as we can all see games Lambert got points from which GB most certainly wouldn't have done. We would be in a squeaky bottom relegation fight now if that change hadn't been made. That said won 11, drawn 13, lost 14 (including the ignominy of a dingle double) is one seriously rubbish season.

I was wondering when this Messageboard would wake up and take note of the amazing progress Stanley are making. Looked like they had blown their chance (and games in hand) with that bad Pompey home defeat and were trailing at home to Plymouth until two extremely late goals turned it around. Stanley are in with a very real chance of grabbing 3rd and automatic promotion. With the exception of Wycombe away on 30 April, their remaining fixtures are all against bottom half of the table sides starting at Newport County on Monday. Although Wigan and Oldham look like departing the third division, it looks like Accy will have plenty of local derbies next season if they make promotion- Blackpool, Fleetwood, Bolton, Bury and Rochdale.
-
Two home games coming up within the next week. A couple of wins and we will be getting close to 53 points and a total no club has been relegated from this division with.
-
We needed that win to keep the gap at the bottom. Getting towards that time of the season when clubs at the bottom start running out of games to catch up but our points total is still low enough for us to go down if we go on another run like that one either side of Christmas.
-
Have I woken up in a parallel universe and United are bottom of the Championship?

The Mancs giving us all a giggle tonight... -
Getting to the time of season when clubs at the bottom start to spring surprises out of desperation. Perfectly timed win last night and could look vital if a couple of the teams below us pick up wins whilst we are in Cup action.
-
I have three points totals in mind from the remaining 18 games this season: 22 will take us to 53 and more points than any club has been relegated from this division with. 32 will take us to 63 points but more importantly will be a points per game run good enough to get us into the play offs if extended throughout next season 36 will take us to 67 points but more importantly will be a points per game run good enough to get us automatic promotion if extended throughout next season Whatever we do, we need to start winning games. 6 wins from 28 so far this season is pathetic.

Seem to have hit the wrong button and have to introduce myself to re-access the messageboard. Hello, I am Philipl!

Four of the teams below us are in matches against each other whilst we travel to Boro this afternoon. Table could look ominous by 5 o'clock. Have to win our next two home matches.

We are gambling on relegation avoidance without a real goal scorer in the squad. I would hate us to go on another December/January type of goalless spell because we would be right in the relegation mire with nobody to pull us out. Thankfully the Oxford game must have given everybody a huge confidence booster.
