The beauty about the situation at the moment is that teams are bound to take points off each other on a regular basis. We currently have 39 points from 22 games which over a 46 match season would give us a total of 81 points and a top 3 place. If we finish in the top five this year we won't be in this league next season because we're such a difficult team to beat over 90 minutes and the play offs will take us back up to the Football League. Am stull convinced though that we will go on one of those amazing runs - have we started it already - that will take us straight back up?

I hope so. Successive wins propel you up the league quickly. It took us an age to reach 30 points with all the draws but even a draw against Kiddy next week would see us go from 30 to 40 points in 4 games. Next Saturday is the halfway point in the league and if we can up our game for the remaining fixtures, we will be there or thereabouts.

| Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong Update: I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly |

Agreed but things don't always go the way you expect in football, which is what makes the game so great. We should beat Kiddy but we should have beat them first game too.

Win our game in hand Wednesday & we go 3rd but results are earned on the pitch. Have to give Chris Moyses massive credit he's put together a team that wants to win & hates to lose. Hopefully we will take a few more this time round.

Must say i am surprised at your current position Helgy but as you say, results are earned on the pitch. Should make for a better derby this season.

I have it on good authority that Lincoln have put everything in to getting out of this league in the next 2 seasons, hence the 2 year contracts handed out. If he fails to do so, it back to the basement bargains.

It's 2 from 3 between us Cheltenham and Village Green. Lincoln have no depth in their squad.
The fact that they are getting excited over the play offs illustrates a lack of ambition and a "just happy to be part of it!" mentality which does not get you up.
Would love to see that fat girl private Rhead at Wembley on the TV ((of course when I am booking my hotels for the league 2 venues as we would have gone up by then) he would not last 15 mins on a pitch that size.
They would not win a play off final as the ref would not tolerate their fowling, dicing & cheating in such a big televised game.
