    Exeter back in September? We also beat Carlisle in September by the same score. I can't quite remember how convincing we were that day, but against Exeter we were.

    Bit OTT, Brighton, as it is just 2 games, but lose tomorrow and then again on Saturday and it will look more like that is the case for sure.

    We haven't beaten all of the so called top teams though. We lost to both Mansfield and Accrington and though we beat them once, also lost once against Exeter. There's three teams in the top seven right there.

    That thrashing by Cheltenham though was that infamous game where Reid got sent off for them. They were 1-0 up and well in control apparently and the Reid sending off completely changed the match, so wouldn't pay too much heed to that. That's why their manager was so angry with him. And you say...

    I am an idiot, so do not have any smart meters unfortunately, Rev. Will ask one of my two friends if they have one.

    There has been too much emphasis on Tony Andreu and it's become a bit of an urban legend to be honest. People seem to be assessing his value to the team based upon a supposition. We really have no idea how good he would have been for us this season and to what degree he would have added value...

    Some are for sure, Pax. The rest of us are just concerned and rightly so. 1. Our away form is poor. 2. Beaten easily in the last two games. 3. Not creating nearly enough chances in matches. 4. Key injuries, including the loss of our influential captain. 5. We are starting to drift away from...

    Errmm....the whole thread and poll is about what we should do at the end of the season if we don't make the top 7, so very first point and your summary aren't relevant. We are giving him until the end of the season.

    I deliberately avoided the cup games as there have been many a team over the years that has struggled in the league, but have excelled in the cup.

    Wish he had taken players on though. He has the ability to do so and I thought his crosses were from too deep out for the most part.

    But you said the top teams can't live with us? Been just as many days when the top teams have, so it's a moot point. When was the last time it was our day? I don't think we have played very well for some time now and both Swindon and Cambridge were not great performances and FGR and Accrington...

    I know. We have been in the top 7 though and looking likely to go up, or at least be with a great chance of going up. We fail, the summer is going to feel a hell of a lot different. I am convinced they would go.

    It's a long time since we beat Luton and Notts County. Out of the top teams around us, Mansfield, Accrington, Newport and Exeter have all beaten us.

    Yup and people seem to be just guessing over any Maddison money. I would not be at all surprised if we lost Willis, McNulty, Bayliss and Jones next season.

    I had one called Lack of Consistency. When have the best teams not been able to live with us? You would have to look back to earlier in the season. We beat Swindon, but they were a very good side and we rode our luck a bit. Wouldn't say at all that that's not living with us. Both Accrington...

    Yeah, we were and I was too. Looking at JMD and Barrett so far though, they haven't pulled up any trees at all. It would be upon reflection. At the time it all seemed sensible.

    That's where we disagree. I am totally convinced if we don't go up this season, next season we will be weaker.
