Come the end of the season we`ll be in the play-offs guaranteed n even if we finish 7th we`ll fear no1 as previous play-off history suggests.
I had a vision during pre-season that we`re gonna be victorious at Wembley this year and if during the slump I never doubted my faith in the chairman, management and team.
I had another vision the other day about an open-top bus with the players, management and chairman on it celebrating their play off win n the bus drives over a disgruntled fishinis foot

The opposition was Brentford today and we won this time,but I've still got that feeling we will end up at Wembley. ( I hope these feelings don't mean I'm going potty like gazza.

You maybe young I don't know, you certainly post like a young en, whatever. Please don't ever question my loyalty to this football club, I have been a ST holder since 1975/6 ish have been to Wembly twice with them and I like all other supporters want the best for this club, I want promotion, a good manager, good football, success and ambition that has never been in question, my points are that the current board are not capable of delivering on these things and for that reason I want Hubbard and Rico out. Some one else will build the ground for us as that is also beyond this board. I am fed up with the mediocrity and apathy that surrounds the club and which are slowly strangling it.
SAVE A LIFE

I didn't see much to get optimistic about in today's performance. Their keeper wasn't forced to make a single save after the goal. we worked hard and looked a little tighter in defence than recently but if that was a performace that re-instates us as a promotion prospect this division must be worse than I thought.

6 changes and many players with shattered confidence, it was bound to be disjointed

Once the build starts fish, new money will be in place, and we have `ma` hubbard to thank for that. At least he looked for it, unlike CFSS.
LR may not be everyones cup of tea, but at least wait till the end of the season, there are still points to play for. If he falls short then fair enough, he gets the boot.

That's a fairer a post as I've seen!
Not a performace to install confidence, but at least we took all 3 points (for once!); something to hopefully build on!
We must have it in us as earlier in the season we were creating twenty chances every home game (ok we didn't win um ) How many did we create yesterday? I can only remember the 3rd or 4th minute goal! But at this stage in the season and having seen some of the worst football in years of late I'll take the win and look forward to the next game! Two or three wins in this way and the lads might start to believe again! Well I can hope

Their team, including subs, was like an automated production line of giant thugs. For me, Downes and Kovacs wrere excellent in the face of a severe pounding.
We couldn't compete today in terms of getting the 'second' ball - that's the only thing they were good at, so I think it was smart tactically to let them have it, keep Winter and Kerry behind the ball, tuck the wide men in, and wait till they lost it. This, and the wind, made an attractive game impossible.

you've got it spot on dim view..that was the tactics in midfield rico wants kerry and winter to protect the back four..and let the other side have the ball,but to some people it looks like there not pressing the ball

Lets consider this...
1.we had 3 lads making home debuts.
2. Two lads making their league bows... one only his second.
3. A team (taking Jack out of the equation) in their late teens/ early twenties.
We just beat a team unbeaten in 2008.
well done lads.
