Had to miss my first game this season (pesky family shit). 21 points up. I'll take that.

Heh! Yeah. Sad innit? Actually, I'm pretty confident that we'll do it, but I'll take any help going. DMP have six fairly tough away games left (we have only four), which helps. However, as Ashdown says, I'm a C-Pessimist. It's just part of the make-up!

Of course we do. The sooner we get to the position that other clubs cannot reel us in and overtake us, the better. DMP are (now, probably) the only club with a realistic chance of doing that, and so I will be (notionally) be cheering Plymouth on next weekend. I'm taking it that you've not...

Far nicer surroundings too. I'm going to have to miss it though. Damn.

We need Albion to do us a favour with a nil over DMP on the 17th. That would be a huge boost.

Shaky though. We were woeful with ball in hand, and LS were actually quite impressive on that score. I found myself counting phases and getting pished-off as I never seemed to get past two. The ref was shocking at times too. Inside the first two minutes he'd sinbinned Brett Daynes and given them...

I had similar at an England vs Canada game. Similar crowd iirc. Bleddy nightmare journey.

If we come top, I couldn't care less!

Although DMP are unlikely to overhaul our points diff, so maybe 133?

Seems like a reasonable shout.

A long long way.

Looking forward to Loughboro next Saturday on the 3G, even if the atmosphere there is on a par with Sixfields...

Poor first half with the ref losing his yellow card until half time. Odd performance from him, seemingly doing his best to slow the game down. Thankfully he finally woke up to Fylde's tactics and started pinging them and awarding pen. tries. Three in a match, and three yellows shows just how one...

I agree that they'll make lots of changes (be silly not to), but they have pretty good depth in the squad now. Will stick to my predictions (more in hope than anything).

Go on then. Let's have a bit of a mini score-prediction for Saturday. I really don't like predicting scores (used to do it on the coach to away games, 50p a go, winner takes all, and was so shit at it that I never ever won it). However... As it's bottom vs top, and Cov are very close to beating...

Indeed! Good, innit?

All this shit is exactly why I detest all-seater stadia. I need to be able to just drift away from the pricks and find somewhere that I don't feel like my blood pressure is going through the roof. As a Covered Ender/West Ender I could do just that (and there were plenty of pricks in there in the...

BTW, there are currently only three clubs who cannot actually overhaul Cov's points total (Fylde, Old Albanian, and Hull). Until there are none, I'm not counting any chickens ;)

With a home game next Sat against Fylde (not whipping boys per se, but definitely bottom for a reason), and DMP having to travel to Old Elthamians, there's a fair chance that Cov could be 18, 19 or even 20 points clear by 5pm. DMP then have Blackheath at home; no pushovers as Cov learned...

And they (BS) only managed to breach the Cov line after about six minutes of added time, with Cov down to fourteen (and two or three minutes would have been more realistic). Still, six tries to one is not to be sniffed at.
