We need to completely turn our form around, not just have a good run of form. How many points do you think it will be then? We can't just ignore how many points are needed. TM himself has said 5 wins might possibly be enough. 5 wins, 15 points = 71 points. It's not an arbitrary figure, it is a...

I would definitely say Tony Mowbray is the best manager we have ever had this season. The one we didn't have was completely useless.

You mean he drained his goal battery pack tonight so it will be back to empty next Saturday.

I don't think so. They like most of them. Not really a celebration is it.

And to put it another way, Bradford only need 10 points to get to 71. 10 points from 8 games. That equates to 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. That in itself would be a poor run of form, but would still get them there. You seriously telling me you think Bradford aren't extremely likely to deliver...

My mum and dad do. They like to look and see how many of their friends have died.

Bloody hell! Even looked again after you typed that and still couldn't see him. Maybe it is this poor sight that stops me from appreciating the greatness of Andy Thorn, people person, man manager, visionary.

Is that because of all the vomit on the cobbles making the floor slippy?

Oh, right! Didn't know it was so simple!! ;) We have to overtake 3 teams as it stands. As an example, Rochdale have won 4 in a row. We have lost 8 out of 12. Which team is capable of winning 5 out of 8 you think? Barnsley have won something like 13 out of 16 and Bradford have won 6 out of...

We only book vegetarians! So, Morrissey has a residency with us and plays twice a week.

No Rose? One for the future TM says.

Yep. Added pressure on us too if Bradford and Barnsley pick up maximum points on Monday afternoon. I can't even see us getting maximum points from Colchester now. I think it will be a draw. Psychologically, Bradford now moving 5 points clear, must be a massive blow. Always been in the top 6...

I know. Sad isn't it. :(

Now 5 points behind Bradford. They play Crewe on Monday. We obviously don't play til Tuesday night. Bradford beat Crewe they will be 8 points clear. No way we are coming back from that.

As he showed yesterday, he lacks a goal scoring instinct. Think you will always great solo goals from him, but apart from that Gillingham game he has shown no composure in front of goal.

Unfortunately football has moved on from the 60's and 70's, so there's nothing to compare. Most managers don't even last 2 years and you can't say that doesn't work, because most clubs opetate on such a manner and of course clubs still have success and make play-offs and win league titles across...

And there's 3 clubs ahead of us in the taking stakes. 5 wins would give us 71 points and that is the minimum we need to achieve.

You sure do know how to put spin on, Dongo. 2011/12 season, at Christmas Middlesborough were 3rd. They finished the season in 7th place. 5 points outside the play-offs. 2012/13 season, at Christmas Middlesborough were 3rd and 7 points clear of 7th place. They finished 16th. Even Mowbray...

I really want to hear what he has to say on the matter, myself. This will be three times his teams have blown play-off places. We are not going to move forwards as a club unless he can address this flaw in his make-up. It's a serious flaw too. Next season, if we are top 6 at Christmas, just...

I thought he was. Out of him and Stokes for player of the season. He was incredibly influential and a key cog in our set up. It's only the last half dozen games where his game has gone to pot.
