Or someone asking if he's been mis-sold PPI.

Spot-on. When the season started I wasn't at all interested in the competition, but now considering our league position and how we have come through a couple of rounds it has become much more relevant. We need the money and we need the good cup run to help raise spirits.

And my old dad makes me laugh about Clarrie Bourton. My dad is 82 and one day last year I asked if he ever watched Clarrie Bourton play. He got really annoyed at the suggestion and was most perturbed at the thought that I believed he may have seen him play. 'Well before my time' was the retort...

He must be. AT said it will be so.

And it's also a big worry that by all accounts Hartlepool could have been 2 or 3 goals up after only 20 mins yesterday. We are still only putting part good performances in. Until we eradicate that we are going to keep losing matches regularly.

I like Bailey. Especially like that great run he did disguised as Carl Baker that led to one of those goals yesterday.

Very sensible post. This forum is like the whore's drawers. We lose one and it's all 'woe is me,' and gnashing of teeth, we win one and it's 'we're going to conquer the world.' Let's just savour the victory and see where we are after Colchester away and Pompey at home.

Would be very happy with 12th. Next season to be our season.

We could do a league based on halves. One would would have us 20 points clear at the top. The other would have us on 0 points at the bottom.

Maybe you should listen to something by Five Star. Or read one of the Famous Five books. Or just watch something on Channel 5. That might help.

And also from what I recall, last week there were predictions of comfortable win and 3-0, 4-1 and 5-1 against Scunthorpe. That didn't quite happen the way we thought either did it.

We are not in a relegation battle. But we are just 3 points above the relegation zone and that is a cold hard fact. Wouldn't take much for us to be back in the bottom 4. I don't think we will be in a relegation battle, but we do very much need to pull clear. And remember that last time...

Followed by your waking up in a cold sweat and shouting 'Nurse, nurse!' ?

Yes we are 11 points off the play-offs ...... but we are just 3 points above the bottom 4. 1 single defeat and we could be back in the relegation places. Let's be sensible here. I just want to see us pull well clear of those bottom 4 places before we think of anything other than safety. To be...

One game, Don. One game! The ridiculousness at this moment is that last week it was all doom and gloom after the defeat and people were talking about a struggle, and now after just one fine win, against by far and away the worst side in the league people are suddenly saying 'play-offs' and...

That's true. They are usually called 'wives.'

10/10 for somehow getting Andy Thorn into a thread about a tv programme based on a famous novel.

Just the one? :o

Be interesting to see. Wouldn't be surprised if there's loads of 7's and 8's, yet during the match thread people at the game kept saying how shit we were and what a dreadful game it was.

Stick with my 14th thanks. One win, against the worst side in the league, cut adrift from the rest and we all start going crazy again. Last week after Scunthorpe it was all 'will we be relegated,' this week, after this win it's 'play-offs' and we are suddenly somehow miraculously a good side...
