13 points from 8 games?

Thats funny I just typed that (or similar). Newport to lose at home twice on the bounce, maybe not, but a draw certainly

Wycombe 84, Exeter & City 82 each but we come 5th. 5 wins 3 draws - can't see a reason for losing to either Newport or Notts County, now the team is settled. Hell's teeth we are even scoring from midfield (Vincenti) Interestingly these are equal to or greater than the historic norm for 3rd place...

Are you saying results always follow form? 1. The question was what result do we prefer? - Notts County to win, because it erodes Wycombe's lead over City 2. Does that mean that we are just replacing Wycombe with a new threat in the form of Notts County? - No, Notts County are likely to stumble...

I thought League 1 standard surprisingly good, but there is an awful lot of dross (particularly goal keepers) in League 2. Full backs just don't close down - ours included. You see goals that should never happen - Clarke-Harris at Crewe and Vincenti last Saturday to name two recent ones. Coaches...

1. Bookies rightly have Exeter as more likely than us, they have two nasty away games but could easily win the rest. 2. Despite all the talk, including from me, that the closeness of the struggle would mean a lower points total being required for the autos, it does look as though 82 points is...

I wait for the moment when Burge throws the ball to Haynes who hits a long ball to Biamou who scores. Unlikely I know but it would be fun on here..........

Grimsby were woeful on the basis of this snippet. Reid had half an hour to put in that cross for the fourth. Suppose this is League 2 for you

When is the next home game in the family zone? Is it crazy football?

...are you sure about those stats?

or utterly imploding

But Mansfield and above all Wycombe also on good runs.....

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

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

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

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...
