I wii catch up with a certain Rotherham fanwhen home but 4 points clear and 14 from 7th fantastic from Salop even with 10 men... We are top of the league........ catch us if you can
To be fair I would prefer Bradford to Wigan .....however after their 5th defeat of the season at home to Plymouth today, they have missed a golden opportunity to close the gap. I think Charlton are more of a threat for the automatic spots than any other team in the top 7.
It's an opportunity for Bradford to close the gap to 3 points on Wigan and 4 on us, which I expect them to do at home to Plymouth. We play Bradford at home on the 25th.
Tricky period for Shrewsbury coming up, not helped by the loss of our left back for the remainder of the season. No doubt the new incumbent at left back will be tested specifically by opponents.
28/10Peterborough away, I don't buy into the negativity of some of there fans, I believe they will...
Phil Brown on Goal Rush....'That team at the top.....' I don't quite get his beef with Shrewsbury and it's not as if Southend are anything special. He's a nobhead.
Third of the season gone and I will stick my neck out and say this team has every chance of winning promotion.
We now have a 10 point gap from 3rd effectively needing to lose 4 games at this stage of the season and resits go against us to drop out of the top 2.
What might work against us is...
Got a feeling we might get our comeuppance today, Shrewsbury had a comfortable win v gas on Tuesday night and this will be a much tougher test against a good well organised Fleetwood team.
Uwe Rossler is a clever manager, and reading into his comments on the Fleetwood site has left no stone...
Club hoping to have it installed by end of February.

I would suggest after 13 games and 5 points clear of the team in 3rd might suggest we are better than you think, Iam sure Blackburn Bradford, Posh were not expecting to lose yesterday so on the face of it whilst drawing with Plymouth might seem disappointing it was a good point and I am sure the...

Responses pretty much what I expected.....Flash in the Pan.
I am hopeful of a top 6 finish and believe we have a bit more than most think..... but could be wishful thinking on my part.
I was around in 1979 when we last won this division, and most probably thought we wouldn't last then.
Anyway...
