You appear slightly disappointed that we failed to pick up more than 3 points last night?


Or maybe it just takes more than 3 points that should be a given to get absolutely everyone feverishly excited?

I'd just like to re validate my point has some people do not understand what i mean.

all i'm saying is did it take a bit of pressure people on his back to realize what his main job is here, to get it drilled into the players how important it is too go out there and play with there hearts. It made him look at what he was doing wrong and change that, the players saw his neck was on the line and they respected him so the fought for his place and right to be the manager of a team who wants to be on the way back up.

I'd also like to note i said that is what possibly has, not what definitely has.

Maybe there's some truth to this - who knows !
Wouldn't suprise me tbh cos some players missed chances and made mistakes in those opening games.

No not at all. Where have I said I was disappointed with the win? Just because I'm not ecstatic that we are 2nd and that we managed to finally beat a poor part time team, it doesn't mean I am disappointed. We've had these Autumn surges the previous 3 years so forgive me if I'm not getting carried away.

I'm not impressed with Hurst or how well we are doing this season or any of the last few seasons (or several). But I was pleased we won. Actually "pleased" is probably too strong a word - relieved might be better. I can't see us getting promoted either automatically or via the play offs but I'll be bloody delighted if we do though.


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.

It is what either a; (delete as applicable)
1. cheating, exploit the rules, ungentlemanly , underhand and down right dirty club would do..
2. clever club would do to ensure key players are available for them at key times.....


I think Fleetwood definitely would've done (and therefore been the second kind of club as they won the league)!

I must have missed the feverish excitement of the past 36 hours. Think most people just seem pleased that we're putting a little run together and heading in the right direction. Long way to go but more reason for optimism than a couple of months ago. I'll worry about five teams going above us when it happens.

A big positive for me, is that we only have 1 player on loan.

Positive for me is that we won the game be it from a mistake from the goalkeeper, negative has to be that we made it hard work for a promotion hunting team, but beggars can`t be choosers
