Expected promotion for me and Mark Robins has come out and categorically said we are the best team in this division.

If he truly believes that we are under achieving.

If he truly believes we are the best team he don't know an awful lot about football, Our goalkeeper is NOT the best for this division, our defence have done us proud up to yet but mistakes are creeping in now, our midfield is certainly not the best and our strike force is almost a joke even teams near the bottom have a better strike force than ours !!!

I know we usually have our post Christmas slump, but don't you think starting on Boxing Day is taking the pee a bit?

I blame myself because every time I think when I get back to England I will either get a half season or a 12 match package we go on a terrible run and play shite

1 game, I am happy with 7th. Win the next 2 league games and Port Vale will be forgot about.

It's now 8 games since we kept a clean sheet. You can see the problem right there. No clean sheets and struggling to score in some games.

Not the right cocktail for success is it.

No , but yet again we brought in quite a few players which takes time to gel. I didn't expect all the signings to work and January is a difficult window on a small budget. We need the team and some individuals to develop as the season goes on.

I am actually more comfortable being just outside the top three but in contention at this stage of the season. I hope we can acquire at least two key players in January, three would be a bonus.

For me its stay in touch, then have a good Easter and break into the top three then. I would be happy to stay out the top three and get third spot after the final game of the season.

Me too.

Just hate this inconsistency though. Back to back home wins, back to back defeats. Hardly fills you with confidence does it.

Hoping Robins has a few rabbits in his hat in a few days time.
