What based on 5 games, and a still-open window?
Well worth doing.

Have you thought of doing it every 10 games which might give a more balanced view and reflect current performances at that time.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

After 5 games, you’ve assessed and declared your expert judgement.
Are you aware that you come across as a whopper, or are you just proud to be putting us straight with your acumen?

It’s the opinion of an idiot based on very little.

You used to be alright Chaos..a few years ago…you just come across as a patronising, rude, know it all now ..happy to slag off anyone not thinking same as you. It’s a shame. A message board is for opinions..all of them…to discuss/debate..whether you agree with an opinion or not. It’s not for telling people to F off etc.. if you don’t agree with certain posters - fine - just ignore them rather than reacting like you do. Thought you were better than that to be perfectly honest.

As said it’s a shame..one of the more eloquent, thoughtful, insightful posters from years back , one you’d always look forward to reading - seems a long way away now.

I get people get on your nerves, wind you up..whatever the case..but your reactions don’t look great tbh. Still, each to their own..

Imagine a scenario though…you go into a pub, don’t know anyone…you stand next to someone talking football, or anything for that matter..you don’t agree with what you’re hearing..do you suddenly interject? Tell them they’re talking rubbish..they’re the opinions of an idiot etc????

I’d suggest you wouldn’t. I reckon you’d ignore it and keep your thoughts to yourself, and carry on with your day.

Not sure why online has to be different.



Anyway..all the best.

Sadly I have to agree. I don't really pay much attention to usernames when reading posts but Chaos is one I thought used to post quite well now I dread reading his stuff.

A +57 goal difference predicted for Swindon does give me some overall doubts about the scientific veracity…😐

Another "data led" fairy tale!

So they update it after each set of results, therefore making their previous "prediction" a load of old tosh?

I wouldn't trust them to get a prediction right with one game to go.

Based on the last two league games I can now see what Hurst is trying to do.
If we could get our attacking third sorted sooner rather than later I could see us being top 3  


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

My gut feeling is 5th, but I see no reason why we couldn't steal into that last automatic promotion spot and avoid the play-off drama when the team start gelling and we play against some of the teams lower down with players fit again.

I have a good feeling about this squad and the recruitment that went into it.
