so far in the league played 11, won 6 drawn 5, lost o. it's good, is it good enough? so far yes because we're top and our away form is backing it up. tougher tests to come with both county's and wrexham yet to visit.
noticed we have a scheduled 5 game home run in feb, could be key.

Let's face it our home form hasn't been great for a while. Let's hope we can get in play offs

The pitch looked horrific yesterday, which JR also alluded to.

5 games in a row won’t make it any better.

Maybe I should start doing some exercises on my neck in preparation.

Stockport will go top if they beat Maidenhead at home on Tuesday

I don't think I can watch Loach smash it up to quigley for over 450 mins on that pitch in Feb. They have 2 weeks to show it some light and love and get back to playing football on the deck. Let's see who we bring in this week.

We don't need any new midfield players if JR is continuing with garbage long ball tactics!

And be 4 points clear of us when (or I guess I should say if) they beat Barnet at 3pm next Saturday.

God I hope it’s someone with some creativity who can get the ball down on the deck.

Let's get those Blunts teams off the pitch, it's clear Rowe isn't happy with it. If they must play in Chesterfield stick em on Stand Road park

When Sutcliffe and Turner's 'academy' rented a pitch at (I think) Gosforth, I'm led to believe the Club used it, too.

At what I'm told was a very, well, 'competitive' rate.

Maybe we should now point the Blunts in that direction...

Apart from the fee we receive, which I imagine must be absolute piecemeal, I don’t understand the benefits whatsoever of us allowing them to use our ground. It’s not like they loan us any of there promising players or anything. Door must be shown to these when the deal is up. If the Blunts want a ground, go to Rotherham.

I wonder if yesterday was JR playing mind games with the board?

He’s pitching for us to sign Roberts, we’ve had an offer refused and he’s trying to cajole the board in to increasing our offer by “bypassing” midfield during the game to highlight the need for a creative player in the middle?

Given the number of players he’s already signed it would be an incredibly childish thing to do.

wouldn't put it past him, really like JR but he is a bit mardy at times or perhaps he's cute in the way he will do whatever it takes to acheieve the long term goal.
remember liverpools and clough's forest teams playing football on much worse surfaces than that in yesteryear, so who knows sammy you may be on to something there.

I think once they are top there will not be anyone capable of dislodging them.

We’d have to put in some dreadful results consistently for that not to happen.
