2 Games A Week

Practically 2 games per week for two months, apart from a brief one week respite between the 11th & 18th March.

Really looking forward to that, although it will be very demanding on the fitness of the squad.

April doesn't look like it is going to be too dissimilar either.

If we'd had a bit better window, there was an opportunity to get on a real roll I think but the side will still be too inconsistent and short in certain areas I fear.

How many do you think we needed in?

Good, it’s boring as fúck when there’s nothing going on, let’s get some games played. It’ll be like the World Cup’s back on. Too much talk at the minute and not enough football.

Sure someone’ll moan about the state of the pitch or wear & tear on the players’ studs though.

Will test our squad for sure but we've proved time & again when this team turn up their more than a match for anybody in this lge & the one above , in ph i trust he will make mistakes but we've come along way in 12 month

When you're playing well, the games can't come soon enough.

Hit form and we'll be glad for the Sat-Tues-Sat continuity.

Just think if we'd got Vernam and Dallas in we'd have been really well equipped to put together a really good run.

Not criticising the club, sounds like they tried their absolute best to get them over the line just that for that reason we're still a little short of the top echelons of this league.

Have to say I feel a little trepidatious about the next few weeks. Not that long ago it was a case of get Swindon out of the way, and then we’ve got 6 straight games against sides below us, but it’s funny how perspectives (and fixtures) can change.

Crewe (A) - haven’t won at Gresty Road since 1482
Colchester (H) - improved in the window and Tom Hopper nailed on to score
Gillingham (A) - much improved in the window
Northampton (A) - 4th in the league
Harrogate (H) - they’ve won every league meeting between us
Orient (H) - top

All of a sudden we’ve got a trickier looking run ahead of us than expected. I remain quietly confident that we won’t find ourselves in a serious relegation battle, but we need to pick up at least a couple of wins and a draw out of that lot or my palms will start to get a bit sweaty.

I think we'll win at Crewe, it's about time that record changed. Also think we'll get a result at Northampton, not sure why just think we will. We'll beat Harrogate at home, again we're due some luck against them and a win. Agree that Gillingham is tough and Orient will be back in form by then.

I can see Hurst reverting to a very pragmatic style of football for the rest of the season. The important thing now is to get to fifty points as soon as possible then we can all relax. For whatever reason teams around us have strengthened whilst we have at best stood still, so the rest of the season could be something of a roller coaster. Five at the back seems likely certainly for away fixtures and try to grind out a point whilst hopefully winning a few home games.

With two games a week a few wins can get us away from the bottom quickly. Unfortunately a few defeats can have us looking over our shoulders very soon.

All to play for.
