I csn only look game by game and we got a point away agains5 a team higher up the league than us. Surely that should be worth a nod of approval.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

What with how easy their win will be?


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I agree, Barra, a good away point but in the wider context, I agree with Ginny. If we don't find a win in the next 2-4 games we are going to be well in the relegation mix, and I can't where it's coming from.

To be honest I think Chesterfield and Forest Green are finding their feet now and will be well clear of relegation by the end of the season. Barnet are going to struggle so that leaves one place for the trap door with Morecambe, Crewe, Yeovil most perilous but with Chelmsford,  Port Vale and ourselves looking nervously over our shoulders.
That game at Yeovil looking VERY important at this moment in time.  


If we're in a relegation dogfight with Chelmsford then we really are in trouble.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

A point against another side who are out of form, hardly steady's the ship. It's the home games against Port Vale, Cheltenham, Stevenage, Chesterfield and Barnet, together with Yeovil, Crawley and Forest Green away, that will define our season, and I would think we would need to win at least four of those games to stay up.

Good away point but still think we could be this seasons Hartlepool if we done get a win and a few more points s soon.

Completey agree, but a positive performance were we should have won shows the players are still playing for the manager. I think adding some quality or not will show how serious the board are.

Agreed. Lot's of 6 pointers there. We play 5 of those sides in the last 10 games, including the current bottom three. Four of them are at home and it may be our salvation, if we continue to struggle.

What i don't want is to have to go to FGR needing a point or three. Football throws up these kinds of fixtures. Actually, what i really want is for us to beat Luton and Yeovil, pull away from the bottom and not have to think about the unthinkable, but it's getting closer by the week.
