I may be wrong, but I kind of get the feeling that you don't like Jacob Murphy, but do like Jim O'Brien. Many apologies if I am misreading the situation.

Did you see Bury yet again!! Talked on the show of woeful defending and Sunday League, schoolboy error stuff. They have some really, really big problems in their defence, as bore out by our 6-0 thrashing of them.

I predicted 7th pre-season. Will be gutted now if that's the case.

Probably that's what he meant, he was a hero for Blackpool! ;)

Chesterfield who finished 6th had 51 points after 36 games. That means they earned 18 points out of ther last 10 games. Obviously 69 points has been the lowest ever total for a 6th place team and it is usally around the 71-74 point mark.

Yep. I think we won't make it. Said that the minute we dropped out the top 6. More than happy to be proved wrong, but I just think it is too big an ask! All we need to do now though is concentrate on one game at a time and keep trying to win games. Who knows, maybe it will be a low total...

Never got the MAF loathing. To me he hasn't set the world alight, but at the same time really hasn't been that bad and nowhere near the level of rubbish people have been staying he is.

To be fair, Grendel actually said pre-season that Wigan 'would walk this league.' Hardly done that have they.

Walsall in 4th place (chose them because they are on the same points as Gillingham, but have a game in hand) are 9 points behind Burton on 62. For them to get to 83 that is 21 points. 7 wins from 11 matches, or 6 wins and 3 draws. Really cannot see them achieving that. It's still early days...

4 wins from 10 games will probably get them automatic promotion!! That would be 83 points. Probably need 2 or 3 draws to go with it.

Yep. Thought that straight off. Should have been a straight red.

Chance to make ground next week perhaps and get back in the top 6. If we beat Swindon, Bradford have a very tough match away at Wigan.

If it is 6 wins needed that is an absolutely huge ask! 6 wins out of 10 games! The odds are stacked against us, but all we can do is to take one game at a time and see where we are then I guess.

Yep. A few people said that and I think someone even said they wouldn't even make the play-offs. They are still top, 6 points ahead of 2nd, 9 points ahead of 3rd and 16 points ahead of 7th place.

Or maybe why he hasn't started from the start at least.

I think he just said 6 wins didn't he? That's rubbish though, Rusty Trombone thinks we'll only need 66 points! ;)

Thanks.

Yep. As we said before, this counts for nothing unless we get another win next week.

Stephens can play left back, so that is an option for the next series of games. Slot Ricketts in at centre back and bring Lorentzson in.
