    Since the Northampton Game

    I know its only 3 games back but I sense a sea change in performance, attitude, and belief since that game. Scored 7 conceded 2. I think we will now kick on with 2 in form strikers tearing this league apart. I think it will be us and Wigan, more importantly so do the bookies, except they have it...

    Murphy - our secret weapon

    Jacob is with us for the season, has proven he can score, and now he has been given the no. 10 role will motor on from here I feel sure. I won't be surprised if he is challenging Arma for top scorer in L1 come the end of the season

    2 Million Budget LOL

    Can't see how they can do this on 2M Does anyone think there is a connection between Anderson's appointment and the sudden surge in transfer activity?

    What a Difference a Week Makes

    Last week, beaten at home by a second division team, this week with the same team except one (albeit the superb Vincalot), = Away win and superb performance. It tells me 3 things 1. Murphy can play the striker role and stand in for Armstrong with devastating effect. 2. Fortune has still got it...

    Walsall and Burton Games Postponed

    Both games postponed on 14th November due to international callups. A win against Colchester would put us in top 2 and put the pressure on.

    Did Fisher Sanction Cole's Signing?

    Apologies it this has already been posted, have read most posts about it but may have missed it. TM says: “It wasn’t for me to go to Tim Fisher and start asking for financial favours but everything behind the scenes is sorted and Joe’s here where he can enjoy his football and help us out at the...

    Don't worry, think about poor Burton

    Hammered 4-0 by Pressley's Plodders. Could have been us last week, and puts today's draw against Blackpool into perspective

    Can we go second next week?

    IF we can beat Fleetwood next week, Walsall play Burton, Bury have a tough fixture against Wigan, and Gillingham seem to be struggling at the moment. Maybe second with a game in hand?

    Next 6 Games

    The next 6 games will take us about a quarter of the way though the season: Scunthorpe (A) Chesterfield (H) Bury (A) Shrewsbury (H) Fleetwood (A) Blackpool (H) We got 13 points from more difficult games up to now (on paper) so I don't see any reason why we can't get 13 points from these...

    3 Things To be positive About Next Week

    1. If we beat Southend we will be second, one point off the lead with a similar goal difference. 2. The only team to beat us this season is top of the league 3. Already there is a gap opening and IF we win we will be 4 points ahead of 8th placed Swindon. Can't get much better can it?

    What Armstrong's signing tells me

    I had never heard of Adam Armstrong before we signed him, but what the signing tells me is that there must be quite a few young players out there who could do a similar job in L1, the trick is to be able to identify them and then to persuade the club that the player will benefit by playing for...

    It's Dissapointing But....

    I know we are not in an ideal position at the moment (to put it mildly) but I look at it like this. TM is a very cautious person, he has shown that in his 2 negotiations for the job, also last season after he got Ward in, he said he could sign others on loan but didn't see the point unless...

    A Tale of Two Plans – A Return to Plan A?

    When SISU arrived in 2007/8, there is little doubt that their reason for purchase was the expectation of a quick return to the Premiership, as demonstrated by their nett spend of 3 to 4M on new players in 2008 and the appointment of Chris Coleman,at that time a fairly big name. I have never...

    Gillingham Manager's Pre-match Comments

    Gillingham manager Justin Edinburgh told BBC Radio Kent: "It has been a progressive season. We could finish eighth or ninth and that would be a very good season. "We have a job to do because there is a lot riding on the game. "I don't think Notts County would have any sympathy for us if the...

    Three "6 Pointers" In A Row Coming Up

    Will be nice to get something from Peterborough next week, but even if we lose, hopefully we won't drop into the bottom 4, with Crewe having a difficult game against Sheffield Utd. Following that, consecutive games against Orient, Notts County, and Colchester. Win 2 of those and we should be...

    New Words for the Sky Blues Song?

    What about new words for the song? Along the lines; All sing together Lets make a din While we have SISU We will never win Waggot and Fisher, Joy Seppala too Why don't you clear off And take Pressley with you There could be several versions of line 6 but I wouldn't want to encourage kids to swear.

    Tom Hateley Article in Daily Express

    A good article about Tom Hateley in today's Express, it highlights his pedigree with father Mark "the former England striker who played for AC Milan, Monaco, and Glasgow Rangers", and his grandfather Tony "was a star with Notts County, Aston Villa, Chelsea, and Liverpoool" No mention of either...
