    Has anyone seen anything better than either of them this season, out of curiosity?

    I suspect if Burge had made that save before the Crewe goal, he would have been blamed for the goal, but there you go

    Welcome Jonson Clarke-Harris

    Andreu is "the grass is always greener" see Ponticelli, Baker passim. In the few games he played, the ratings were not that high iirc. Somebody might like to check

    Bayliss

    If we are promoted, we will need to build a new team again so will need money from a Bayliss sale

    Goalie was on the right side, did it take a deflection having initially been going wide?

    Research out this week said that scoring just before half time was not the good thing it is sagely pronounced to be by most ex-footballer pundits. Statistically the side conceding the goal does better. I assume because the goal scoring side relaxes and the side conceding does something about...

    good thought, whether it happens or not

    Promotion feel?

    I was there in 64 and 67. Still regard the Wolves game in 67 as THE game, not Spurs in '87. 51,455 (or was it 51,445?) Anyway there were shitloads of us. The only upside I can see from this season in the 4th tier is at least we win or draw most times. All those seasons on the edge of relegation...

    Baker is just the "grass is always greener" see DKE x 2, Ponticelli before they were actually on the pitch for a few games. 1-1 for me. McNumpty Peanut or whatever his name is these days

    On the mark. All we know about Robbins tells that he in a vital game he will not play anything other than Doyle / Kelly, not least because Luton are such free scorers. Bayliss in the centre too risky. For the same reason I would go with Stokes / Reid on left rather than Haynes / Reid favoured...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    That was my feeling. Too many teams have to have their form implode for such a relatively modest team as we have to be able to get to the auto spots.

    To Willis or not to Willis?

    ricocheted free kick tho

    How old are you? There never has been.....except amongst fans

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    autos requires too many teams who have otherwise played well this season to now suddenly play badly. It could happen, but unlikely. Nor is our team good enough man for man to win a high enough % of games (and Robbins is too defensively minded)

    Wycombe Vlog

    hmmm another time that would have been an easy save

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    This is the most optimistic spin you can put on it. You could just as easily argue the opposite for each - Wycombe and Notts C bound to recover after a wobble etc etc As there are 6 teams chasing 4 places the odds are at least 3 of the five other than ourselves will maintain some kind of form...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    No the other fixtures matter a lot unless you are run away leaders. We are in a highly competitive situation with 6 chasing 4 places. We are still not playing very well, - check the mismatch between what is being said during games on here, and the player ratings should we win.We are more than 3...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    "no easy fixtures" = cliche, you can do better than that. if you were an exeter fan you would expect to beat Chesterfield, even though they are showing signs of resistance. Merely if you go thro the games and apply a reasonable logic knowing that correct / incorrect are likely to balance out...
