You really think we will struggle to get six points?  

Look at our recent away record. Draws at the teams currently in 7th, 9th and 12th.

And a home win against the team in 4th. I certainly think we can beat Swindon and Bradford at home and get a few away points too. It would not surprise me at all if we beat Wrexham next weekend.


Are you saying that Newport at home is a definite defeat then?

At a guess Swindon and Bradford City at home plus we have a good chance v Newport and Wrexham plus the Colchester game so I think there is at least eight points in just those five games.

I do agree, don’t get me wrong, but when we played Bradford on TV, the commentators said something astonishing - their unbeaten run against Town is the longest in their history. Considering they’ve been in all 4 divisions in recent times, they’ll have played pretty much everyone, so they really are our bogey team.

I seem to remember our last win against them - I reckon it was the 4-3 at Valley Parade in 96/97. One of my biggest regrets - I was at uni not too far away at the time and decided on the morning that I’d give it a miss as I’d be on my tod. Wish I’d gone.

We beat them at home in the 98/99. Lee Nogan header. Gary Walsh in goal for them.

Oh right, I’ll have been to that, but it doesn’t stand out (aka I don’t remember it!).

It was actually 2-0. Funny, ‘cos I could remember Nogan’s looping header vividly (I was sat right behind it), but recalled nothing of Groves’ goal. I suppose it was nearly 26 years ago.

We just need to get our heads down and keep doing what we’re doing. If run ins were decided on paper then we’d have lost to Notts County in the first National League play-off game.


Up The Mariners!

Swindon fans say that their team are absolute rubbish.  I can see us finishing above them.

We started our difficult run two games ago and we have already taken 4 points from them, we a different team to the one which lost to Doncaster. On a unbeaten run which will give the team confidence going into the next home game against Wrexham, who are having a bit of a wobble.

Lets pack out the park next week and put a spanner in Wrexham's promotion charge, a win next week will be a massive step towards securing our league status.
