If we lose next week and he scores the winner against Notts County, I am voting for Cody McDonald.

We can easily shut off top rows though and make the ground more condensed.

Yep. We've asked for an extra 300.

Hope so. Even though they won yesterday, have to say, Crewe looked a terrible side.

Have a word with yourself. :D

Well, you'd probably have Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City and Villa and Leicester, plus really good crowds against Spurs and Arsenal. That's 8 games with really good crowds. Bearing in mind that you only have 19 home games in the Premier, I would say that is a very decent return to be...

Okay, I'll tell you what, you focus on Saturday and I will keep my eyes peeled for Sunday.

It's the lack of backbone that worries me the most. The sort of players you need in a fight. JOB and Reda most certainly tick the boxes, but Fleck? Barton? Nouble? Martin? Big concern next week if Pennington is out and Willis is still injured. Aaron Martin doesn't instill me with any...

Totally agree. Thought Burge had been pretty decent of late, but yesterday he had a bit of a mare.

Yep. Baker was exactly the sort of player we needed here this season. Passion, spirit, fight.

I honestly couldn't see us losing yesterday and I was very confident going into yesterday's game and for 25 mins or so, my confidence yesterday grew. We were well on top, looked the only team likely to win and Crewe were very, very poor. First attack by them though and we're a goal down and...

Errr, Crewe can catch us too. Only behind us on goal difference. Point for them and none for us would see them overtaking us.

Fair enough, but if we do stay up it could well be the 51 points that we had were indeed enough. If we lose and so do Notts County, then the 51 points we had when I said we were safe, would indeed have been enough anyway to keep us up.

No, I don't think that is an issue. Even if Colchester win on Tuesday, I simply cannot see them beating Preston next Sunday. Preston will need the win to clinch automatic promotion. Simply cannot see Colchester winning that one, though could see it being a draw, which of course wouldn't affect...

Think we both know that if we were relegated we probably wouldn't be pulling up any trees in League 2 and would more than likely just perform exactly the same as we have in League 1.

I have it too. I was so convinced we were already safe, but I honestly think we will lose next week. Think it will come down to favours from elsewhere. Not good is it.

Yeah, exactly. Nothing against loan plays per se, but I am talking about numbers. 2 or 3 loan players can enhance the squad for sure, but when you have 7 or 8, then I think that can be quite disruptive.

But I do really appreciate it when people tell me how I should be feeling and what I should be doing.

Agree. I left shortly after the 3rd goal. Never, ever leave so early, but I was so despondent and we were so poor and I was so fed up, I feel totally justified in doing so. I have absolutely nothing to feel embarrassed about whatsoever.

We need to do a loan cull too. Too many loan players this season. Also, hard to assess just how much was down to SP bringing in poor players and how much is down to him not been backed by the board.
