Very true. Also the very same performance can be viewed as pee poor or great and steady depending on the result. Heard a few 'good performance's from yesterday but if we'd lost I reckon it would've been a completely different assessment.
Exactly, most fans only look at results over the short term, not performances. Had we drawn 0-0 it would have been "where are the goals coming from". But we were planning to keep things tight and I didn't really expect more than a 0-0 so we did well. Then again you'd have to say we've got to beat Hayes & Yeading now though - dread to think what will happen if we lose that one or what Scott will do... Even if we draw the fans won't be happy(and nor will I tbh) If we're serious about having half a chance you can't hide behind "good performances" and "bad luck" forever at home except in obvious cirumstances - 20 shots on target and you're likely to still win regardless of luck. Guess H&Y might stick 10 men behind the ball so we've got all week to work on unlocking teams in the final 3rd. A good old thumping would do the squad the world of good - I hope we don't sit back on a 1 goal lead like we did vs Cambridge - I say kill the fuuckers off asap when they're under the kosh, not hand the initiative back to them and play with fire. Get a 2 goal margin you've got a chance the floodgates might open and IMO that's what's really gonna boost confidence - not squeaking past teams by 1 goals margins helpful as that is. We'll only be serious challenger once we become an attacking force to be feared so let's up the ante and knuckle down to the ultimate task in hand.

Can't stand that sh1t ! A nice pasta or Mediterranean dish would suit me esp with a hummus starter.

I'm usually fairly positive about Town as a whole....... I was honestly expecting us to beat Forest Green by more yesterday on the back of the Darlo game (which was the last game that I watched). What I saw yesterday wasn't always pretty, not as good as some of the stuff we played against Darlo but three points will always make me feel positive, especially away.
I'm a happy(ish) Mariner at the minute.

Agreed, although I'm not convinced about big wins breeding confidence - how many times do we see teams win by big margns and then lose their next game? I think what breeds confidence is a winning or unbeaten run, but luckily beating H&Y will mean something of a run anyway! Only 2 games but I reckon much more belief going to Stockport.
