Last night I had a nightmare / dream.  I was frantically looking for my passport.  My girlfriend couldn't understand why I was so flustered.  I just knew I wished I'd fished (pun intended) my documents out earlier.  One part of my mind was wondering why the urgency to fly all the way home for a few days.  The video of me rummaging in drawers with elevated blood pressure went viral which spawned an international effort to get me home without a passport and I miraculously got back .  The TV screen was black n white.  Not like old tellies but because it showed hundreds of Town supporters bedecked in our colours.  Pundits mentioned our unbeaten run but alluded to the fact that we were still underdogs. Then I saw Holloway with his flat-capped head held high and his body a bursting bag of emotions as he lead the Mariners out onto the Wembley turf.  The lucid part of my brain told me not to wake up.  But I blood_y did.

I'm a glass half full type of guy and I think we have got a sneaky chance of getting into the play offs. What are we 5 games unbeaten at the moment. I think the momentum has started, IH has got us playing football not seen since the Buckley Mk1 era, the boys are oozing with confidence and from their performances are displaying a new found belief. Just hope the attendances start picking up so we can get some life back into the old girl that is Blundell Park. UTM

If we get a result today, it's possible, we've been to harder places than Swindon and got results before, with Olly in charge you just never know, regardless of anything it's great to see the team playing football with passion and giving us a bit of pride back after so long!

We are not expecting anything that puts pressure on the players.

We are optimistic very optimistic and we can all thank Ollie for that.

Win today and we can dream
But there are so many clubs above us who can win on any given Saturday and the gap will remain 8/9 pts
We will have to win 11/12 minimum of remaining games - possible but unlikely
It would need the collapse of several clubs (certainly 5/6 to have very poor run ins) for us to sneak in

While there's hope....

The 2 games in hand we have are against higher opposition so gains for us in those fixtures draw us closer to them. In fact , every win against a higher placed team makes the dream more of a reality.

Remember the old country wisdom:

A Play-off shout
Til February is out


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.
