    As I say, we can all list stats, but I do think these ones below at least give some indication of what would be needed. Top six last season. Charlton won 30 games Sheff Weds won 28 games Sheff U won 27 games Huddersfield won 21 games MK won 22 games Stevenage won 18 games. The most...

    Get real !

    Who's saying it's a bad result then? Must have missed that bit. I am quite happy with the draw, having said I thought it would be a tough game. An awful lot of people predicted a draw. Think most of us are fine with the point aren't we? Bit confused by the thread.

    And that's it in a nutshell, Brighton. Whichever way you dress up the stats (me included), the bottom line is that no-one can say we are a good side. We simply haven't put in anything like any 90 minute performances in 20 games, constantly blow hot and cold, have a terrible home record and have...

    As I said above, 9 games ago we were 10 points adrift. So, 9 games on, very decent run of form, still 10 points adrift. Sorry, but that is my mistake. Just checked again and 9 games ago after beating Bournemouth we were 9 points adrift. So 9 games on we are 1 further point behind. We have had...

    But you can dress up stats as you like Astute, after the Bournemouth game, 9 games ago, we were 10 points adrift. After the 2 wins against Orient and Crawley, 4 games ago, we were 10 points adrift. After the 2 wins against Hartlepool and Colchester and draw against Pompey, we are 10 points...

    Are we hitting form though? Last 2 league games at home, lost and drawn. That's not hitting form. We are away from home but we need to hit form at home too.

    But Stevenage and Crawley have been replaced by other teams who were just behind them. Doesn't matter who it is. The gap is still 10 points. It was 10 points and still is 10 points. Doesn't matter which teams they are if someone is immediately replacing them and retaining the same gap in points...

    But with us it's a regular occurrence and that is the problem. None of us would have any problem if it was only happening occasionally.

    Thanks Macca. If Robins had said when he came that we were promotion material and that he believed we could make the top 6 I probably would have believed him .... but he didn't did he. He pretty much said the club was in a mess, that there were many things wrong and that it was going to take...

    We have struggled to find a top goalscorer for many, many years. They are like gold dust. If DMC goes it is going to be very hard to replace him. Also, have to say, because he is such a good player at this level he creates space for others with his intelligence and runs and touch. I'm pretty...

    Course there is. Ann Widdecombe has big bouncy bollocks and a penis.

    Nothing frightens me, but at the same time, pre-season I said we would find this a very tough league. 2 wins in 10 home games kind of proves that point doesn't it? Nothing frightens me, but at the same time no-one can argue that it hasn't been a tough league so far. We are still closer to the...

    City 1-1 Pompey: Ratings & Thoughts

    Thought Bailey was outstanding in the first half, but you're right, both Jennings and Bailey sort of disappeared in the 2nd. We weren't clinical enough in the first half. We really should have gone in at half time at least 2 goals up. Wood worries me. Just how many goals has he now been...

    Back in the hunt? 2 wins out of 3 games, no defeats and yet we are still 10 points adrift of the play-off places. As I said a couple of days ago, 10 points is massive and would take a long long time to make up if we had the ability to actually do it. As Clive Eakin said today, it needs...

    My bets for today

    I did have in mind 0-0 or 1-1. Stupid dream buggered that up though. Should have known better. Same night had a dream about a friend's daughter where she came out of a pub and blasted all the windows out with a shotgun before proclaiming 'I'm in charge now!' So I said I thought she was lovely...
