Quoted from DB
it's never over till the maths say so.
A win on Saturday and the revival starts
When your bottom the only way is up
It can't get any worse
The fight back starts now
It's our turn for a decent run
National League made null and void
In the fans football court fenty and holloway and found guilty of mismanagement and banned from the game for life.
Del boy said tomorrow we'll be millionaires, and tomorrow Town will be top (or survive at least)
HOPE, Bob Hopes dead, we are in no hope but tomorrow their is some HOPE

Trying to be positive


Do you have a tune in mind for that?


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.

Feel good factor will be here on Saturday when Barrow and Southend lose and we win.

We are out the bottom two and start our climb up the table.

Maybe not too high but at least out the bottom two.

I don’t care what other sides do. If we win games we will be OK. If we score goals we will win games. It’s as simple as that. Sod the rest of them, get the ball in the bloody net.

No-one wants to be the one that's propping everyone else up but this was always going to happen and we couldn't keep expecting sides to not pick up some points.

But it changes nothing in my mind.  Bottom, second bottom, even if we were third bottom, the objective remains the same.  Come the end of the 46th game we need to have picked up enough points to better those around us, ultimately to the point that we have more points that at least two other sides.  Simple fact is we need to start picking up points ourselves asap, ideally in the form of a flurry of 3 point hauls.

It's almost a cruel twist of fate that it's now likely the takeover will be completed as Town sit at the bottom of the pile, in the same week that John Fenty is forced to not stand for re-election, it's a wonderful nod to what he's achieved.  

Still think we'll be ok, but this definitely marks the rock bottom, only way is up approach from here on.

Yes but think of the story in 10 years time when we qualify for the Champions League knockout stages.
The consortium took us from plum last in the league to there in quick time!
