Last 6 league games

Quoted from Croxton

Only just noticed that this round of fixtures largely pits teams above us against those below us. After travelling to Harrogate my glass is now half empty and I am looking over our shoulder.

Sorry DB but I think we are already in a scrap. Even though it harms our chances of playoffs I want all the teams below, and just above us, to lose today and tomorrow. We had our fun in May.

I do agree we're in a scrap, but for promotion. Who'd have said this time last year that we would have gotten promoted, there are over 23 games to play so keep believing.

Realistically, if Town were to put a decent run together of day 6 wins or so from 9, we’d be well in the hunt for a top 7 place. However, that’s not something we’ve really done all season and I’m yet to see that this team has the ability to perform so consistently.

I do think a lot will rest on our ability to sign that striker in January; we’re not going to have enough threat nor make the most of McAtee’s remaining time if we fail to do that.

Relegation though? Not a chance.

I think like others have said, we could have easily been playing the likes of Dorking this year so you have to put it into perspective. I'm so rash after a game and probably say things out of line because I know we have the infastructure in place to be much better than we currently are. I don't really believe in a year of 'consolidating' as you should always be aiming high and the best you can be. Bristol Rovers did two back to back promotions and have never looked back. I'd bet my bottom dollar that Notts County/Wrexham will be doing the same when either of them come up. We still aren't having a 'terrible' season just really need to keep on the forward foot with the fans we've been able to attract as if it's just a case of we will do our best to survive alot will turn away again and go back to having our gates of 4.5-5k. Show abit of something in January.

What has been bizarre in some ways is now we've bossed the midfield in some games, but then completely lost it there a game or two later. Similarly, defence looks tight and well-organised a lot of the time, but we then gift soft goals to opponents who often don't have to work very hard for their goals. The definition of inconsistency, I suppose.

No doubt that the lack of forward options has been the biggest issue this season and I do wonder just how many players we missed out on for that vacant number 9 shirt. Hopefully, we've got some deals agreed and ready to sign early in the transfer window because we can't afford to struggle our way through another month of fixtures without strengthening the squad.

We will not go down this season and we wont go up.

Unless we get 2 or 3 really good signings in.

Thats the joy with supporting town.

We always have hope.

I mean, those last two remarks are just crass. We are clearly not ‘sh1te’ - we are middling and inconsistent, and lacking in a couple of areas, like the vast majority in this league. On our day we’ve looked a really good team. I’ve seen some truly sh1te Town teams over the years, and they were way, way poorer than this. As for ‘not even attempting to capitalise’….just a daft thing to say. The manager has been backed and will continue to be so I’m sure as a work in progress. Get yourself a couple of reality tablets and neck them with a glass of pragmatism juice.

Still want to stick with this?

Some things never change...
