Swindon, Lincoln, Notts C, & Exeter have only won 2 of the last 5, like us. So we aren't the only ones who's form is suffering. Hopefully Doyle back next week, hopefully JCH & McNulty partnership will click, and maybe Reid will get a run in the team and actually try. (got to be optimistic)...

Looking back on recent final L2 tables anywhere from 71 to 75 points has been enough for 7th. I have spent most of my life looking at tables at this time of year, (mostly the bottom half) and the points required to make the playoffs or avoid relegation is usually pretty consistent.

Low to mid 70's should see us 7th. Need to target the following games Lincoln H Barnet H Crewe A Grimsby H Yeovil H Crawley A Stevenage H Cheltenham A Morecombe H Need to win 7 of that 9 and pick up 2 or 3 draws. As long as we can re-group now we have got rid of the cup millstone we have a good...

Less than 2 weeks ago I was slated on here for saying I could see Reid playing for us again, now everyone wants him. Funny old game!

We need to put this into perspective, yes we rode our luck against Swindon but they have one of the best away records in this league if not THE best. We won 3-1 BTW. We got beaten fairly easily on saturday by the form team in this league while we had 5 of our regular team either missing through...

Obviously a fan of the Stranglers

I did say a high probability, not a certainty, based on Accrington have been as inconsistent as any side in the top seven earlier in the season, they are on a good run now, but are possibly only one or two injuries away from another mediocre run. Also they have one of the toughest run-ins of all...

No panic yet, if we beat Accrington we will be only 2 points behind them, with a good probability either them or Wycombe will hit a bad run of results. Personally I'm glad Swindon lost, I see them as a bigger threat than Accrington.

I suspect Reid is a very worried man right now, age 30 and potentially on the scrap heap. He obviously thinks (or thought) clubs would fall over themselves to get his signature, now realisation is setting in. Last chance saloon doesn't begin to describe his current situation. If he ever plays...

It hit me when we beat Stoke, and everyone on TV made such a big thing about a L2 team beating a premiership team. Almost the same as when Sutton Utd beat us. Having supported them since we were in the old league 2 in 1965, I still see us as a sleeping giant. (You can give me a red card because...

Yes, agree with this but it just grates a bit to think of him sitting there taking his salary until the end of the season and doing nothing for it. Personally I hope we don't need him, but if we do, because of injuries for example, would hate to think we missed out on promotion while paying a...

Looking at the Reid situation logically, MR should sit down with him and get him on board until the end of the season. The current situation has got to be down to a battle of wills and pride, neither wanting to make the first move. Reid has 2 choices IMO to decide his future. Knuckle down with...

Didn't say I wanted to see him again in a cov shirt, just wouldn't be surprised

I wouldn't be surprised if Reid plays for us again at some point this season

The last goal looked like a rehearsed training ground move to me (lol)

I think Bianca Westwood is quite good

Yes, Colchester & Crawley 11th & 12th have played 2 games more than us. Personally I think the 3 teams who will miss out on a top 7 spot are Notts County, Exeter, and Lincoln

My understanding has always been that "unquote" is a corruption of end quote, used so often in modern language that it has become the norm, but still wrong in pure english. It is called an eggcorn. Similar ones include on tenderhooks (tenterhooks) one fowl swoop (fell swoop) and could of won...

Do you mean end quote?

Yes, our home form will be the key. Last 4 home games we took 12 points, last 8 home games we took a total of 14 points. Cambridge, Lincoln, Barnet, Grimsby, Yeovil, Stevenage, Morecambe are all to come at home and we should be looking to win at least 5 of these and not lose any. The odd loss...
