I know what I’d go for….
Imagine if we tried using the fresh players we have that Lam refuses to play Instead of our exhausted young forwards
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Lam refusing to play players was something that came out of the fans forum that IL and Rads were a bit baffled about reading the write up.

Has Lam been saving them for the playoffs? I doubt it.

As to the game it seems like it was a dour affair. I can remember a game at Central Park where we beat Bradford 2-0 and it was epic. No one left the ground feeling short changed but reading the reports I suspect what was served up today by both teams wasn’t the same.

As Fozzie said, two points is two points and now we have a home tie in the playoffs but something miraculous is going to have to happen for us to get anywhere.

Well I enjoyed the game! It was end to end stuff in the first half both teams good defending. Second half was when we wore them down. Okay it wasn’t high scoring but we came away with the win 😊
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.

What, you actually went and saw the game! I thought the goal here was to look at the scoreline and then have a good moan about how crap it must have been?

I go to every game I can Mike 😊 there’ll come a time when I can’t go & support the lads so I move heaven & earth to get to them while I can, even Wakey on a Wednesday night, & that includes going watching an academy game when Josh Charnley & Matthew Sarsfield played for us!

Don’t forget I’m the original happy clapper ;) ;)

That game against Bradford Northern was one of my favourite games, Dave. If I remember correctly it was the first of the sequence of wins in our long cup run. Miraculously, Joe Lydon kicked the penalty from about 40 years out in the slutch to the kop end. I can picture it now.
