Southend are definitely improving again.  Their next four fixtures look quite difficult but it doesn't matter who you play, it's about hitting form at the right time.  

Barrow's fixtures are also difficult, but they have two games in hand.

If we lose the next 2 games we'll be cut off from the pack and I worry about our team's ability to overcome the mental challenge.

Second best outcome we could have hoped for today. Southend and Stevenage took a combined total of one point.


That is a very very good point for Southend away to the league leaders. Ominous. Hard to take any comfort from that.

The BBC stats show:

Southend:
13 shots at goal (none on target)
10 corners

Stevenage:
17 shots at goal (3 on target)
7 corners

Between them they only got 1 point away from home, but they are both trying hard based on the above stats.

Agreed. If, and it's a big if, we start winning, we may see a few teams below both us and Southend come the end of the season.

It doesn't make for pretty viewing right now though.

Agreed. We must start winning very soon.

Our next three games are against Exeter, Crawley and Harrogate. I don't expect much from the trip to Exeter, but both Crawley and Harrogate are in only moderate form. I think we need to look to winning both of those to start the comeback.

Six points from the next three games would I think give us real momentum.  Even that might not get us out for the bottom two though.   If we come away with less than 3 points from these three games we will be well adrift at the bottom.

It’s Crawley v Stevenage and Salford v Barrow tonight.

A couple of home wins would help,

Think Stevenage could well win that one. Hopefully Barrow lose if they do.

The big mental challenge will be when/if we get to the stage where a win wouldn't get us out of the relegation places, fortunately we're not there yet but it could happen tonight.

Come on Salford.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

With virtually a new starting eleven assembled, I still think it's too early to make assumptions on the new players' mental fortitude, and assume we'll lose the next two games too. This extended break due to the recent postponement has come at a good time for us. Time for one or two to recover from injury, time for new players to bed in, time enough for Hurst to draw a line under the first part of the season and treat the remaining games as a completely separate second part of the season. Win one, lose one until the end of the season seems a tall order having experienced what we have since September, but these players haven't been through that and are definitely an upgrade on what went on before this welcome break..
