Quoted from Mrs Doyle
Trying to look at this with a half-full glass as we approach the second half of the season we are in good position to improve further. Get through the next three games with a couple of wins would see us right up there IMHO.

You need some luck in this game and we are not getting much in front of goal.

I feel somewhere we are going to hammer somebody and put those chances away.

The players are gelling into a tight unit now and match fitness is getting better.

The defence looks better, the midfield looks excellent it's just the attack that needs a bit more sting/ruthfulness and maybe a bit of luck to kick us into a nice run.  

Get Luton out the way relatively unscathed and crack on.  UTM.


I can't not agree with this tbh - Was that standard Notts County or did our game plan make them that way?   God knows what engine Summerfield's runs on because he covered some grass yesterday.  The missing part was the final ball, the quickness and cuteness if you like in getting us into a position to have a go at goal.

Luton play a completely different game and IF the two banks of 4 do their jobs we're in with a shout.

We're becoming a team that is hard to beat but, we will not be knocking goals in for fun. Our strikers are what they are, if any of them were a 15 to 20 goal season player they would not be here. The thing is we could miss out on the extra position we could require by goal difference, or goals scored.(lack off)

If we go into the second half of the season still bringing on Vernon and Hooper on 70 min. we will stay mid table. Bolarinwa, Cardwell, Clifton, Wright et al should not be binned in Jan. If Summers gets injured, all round fitness will be key. Was DJ really knackered? or was it tactical?

Would agree with the Bolarinwa point not sure about the rest as we haven’t seen anything from them at 1st team league level, the one we need to get back and look after is Osborne who will add some class, could he even play in the number 10 role if we can’t get another striker I wonder. Feels to me like making the play off mix will be dependent on injuries & additions. Defending looks ok now is that 3 clean sheets in a row for James?

Well, maybe Osborne is that man we won't know until after Christmas though.

But we can't score. Again, today..'should have had 3...Matt could have had 4..should really have beaten 2nd placed County, nowt special' etc. I'm in no doubt that at least 2 or 3 very, very ordinary teams will go up this year but I do have doubts it will be us. As the match thread and just back posts state tonight, for the umpteenth time, we'd have won if we had a cutting edge.
We plough on but I'd really like to know at what stage of the season a goal difference in the minus is not acceptable.


Quoted from LondonMariner43


It's a funny kind of benchmark - unless the team win 3-0 away at a ground where no other away team has won this season, then they aren't good enough?


A new benchmark for analysis. 3-0 defeat. At home. To Accrington.

Do we even have a "But we could/should have scored [random number between 3 and 6] !" angle this time?

I'm gonna bring the above post up again, and I'll tell you why, because I'm still narked off at the superior Slade supporters who argued against and red crossed my mildly put remarks about our worrying lack of goal scoring prowess and their alarming confidence in sneaking up to the play-offs. Then when it all goes titsup there's no more posts from them.

No wins in 7, 5 defeats in those 7 and just 1 goal scored.

Robo I have had them since the close season,one of my post that stated that Slade had missed his primary targets and was left was inferior players was branded the most stupidest post ever seen like that person to repeat that now.
