You post sense mate, but there aint a cat in hells chance we will be near the top two by Xmas!? Where are the goals going to come from? I just hope he's got wingers lined up for Jan......
Click to expand...

But why do we need wingers in a formation that doesn't play them? Jobello played more like a traditional winger and we had Godden isolated. The couple of games he's missed we've created quite a lot of chances and not scored them. Rather than bringing in new players maybe MR should consider spending the cash on a dedicated forwards coach?

About 4,700 (including about 200? of them) This was always going to be the smallest gate of the season (imo) Wet Wednesday night with barely any away following. We don't know what gates have been budgeted for, but when we play the likes of Ipswich, Sunderland *even Bolton) who bring a decent away following, we will see a few plus 7k gates. Think we will average around the 6k mark by the end of the season (may go a bit higher if we can stay around the play offs but not much more) I think we will have a stronger squad next season (if we are in the same division) as most purchases are likely to involve the attacking areas, and we are fairly sound defensively and in midfield (when Kelly is fit!) If the football stays positive/attractive, I think we could 'survive' another season at Stans, but I don't want to stay here, and no signs of 'movement' will test the resolve of a few.

Peterborough top of the league - play in their own town - 5,843, so although yesterday's attendance seemed low, our support has been tremendous overall, in terms of people;s commitment,to travel 'home' and away.

Was a better atmosphere last night. People seemed well up for it from the start of the second half. Credit to Fleetwood fans who were fantastic.

Absolute ball ache getting back though and the pie was shit.

Heard that the a45 was rammed so came off at J4 and went through the lanes from Coleshill.

Think it probably added an extra 20 minutes on.

So it took you 35 minutes to travel 5 minutes to your home?

First time to St Andrews on Weds.

It was certainly a different experience to the Ricoh, much more traditional than sticking a bowl in the middle of nowhere with little going on outside the ground.

Bit annoying that stewards got a bit anal about where I sat; wanted to sit with my mates who are season ticket holders but as I paid on the gate I was just allocated somewhere random. Wouldn't mind if there was 20k of us but there was only 4.5k, hardly a sell out!

It's because of the action of a few pricks at the Doncaster game. All trying to squeeze into block 33 without tickets. Ended up fighting each other and blocking the gangway and other people's views. Might seem harsh but as someone with a season ticket there I'm happy they are taking action.

It's also best to keep on top of it because if there one day is a large gate and people have got used to just sitting where they like, a small minority will get arsey about having to move that day and cause problems even though they're in the wrong. Like all things best to nip it in the bud.
