I know what you mean. Crazy to think we are only halfway through, season feels like it has been going forever, and ours has been seriously disrupted now. But some fans really let league table pressure really get to them. I even saw one loon on Facebook complaining that Solihull were above us...
Yes. I am sure most TFFers - even the weird ones - would have been able to get this expensively assembled Stockport side up there. Shame on young Samuel Rusk.
When the NL spending reached (and continues to do so) unprecedented levels, I always thought top spot would be an pretty impressive achievement for anyone Optipez, but thought top 3 was gettable, and still do. But yeah, any lower than that and it will be tough, VERY tough
Regrettably, despite a run of our 27 points from 12 games before today, our ‘season is over’, and if we somehow make the playoffs we will be ‘lucky’ to have done so.
I know this because I read it on Notts Co social media.
I’m not surprised they were ecstatic. They are going back to the FL. It would take a collapse of Devon Loch proportions to stop Dave Challinor’s men winning it from here.
Seismic Brotherhood momentum shifts in the past few weeks. Stockport and Southend resurgent. Notts and Chesterfield beleaguered. Wrexham kind of beleaguered. Torquay.. well I dunno, just been crap all season.
Are we really awful against teams at the bottom, though? We’re averaging more than two points per game against the current bottom half (Yeovil downwards), 2.09 to be precise, and that’s without playing Dover at all. 23 points from 11 games, which, while we could perhaps have 3 or 4 more, isn’t...
I’d have thought Cook was on a fair old whack at Ipswich. You’d think he’d want that matching at least? Where is he based these days? If I was a Chessie fan it would take a Cook level appointment to keep me from the sharp implements now.
