Results from yesterday

The default I can't see Gillingham sustaining it arguments. Heard it all last year with Bristol. Gillingham destroyed us and are undefeated looking solid and dangerous. No reason to believe they will suddenly become shit for no reason.

As far as I'm aware, Gillingham haven't got a massive squad and a couple of injuries could cause them problems. I think they'll be there or thereabouts though.

Adkins out!

We can still make the play-offs.

At least now woodwardfan won't have to worry about the quality of opening posts

It's worse than I thought.

In some ways the results were good for us as it means we can go top if we win the next 2. On the other hand, the weekend also saw the green shoots of recovery for Wigan and Bradford after poor starts (probably the only 2 teams who have the firepower to match us- think Cole will be a very good signing for Bradford). It also just saw our next opponents go and get a fantastic, morale-boosting victory away at the league leaders. I think more than anything, it just shows how unpredictable the league is gonna be.

Re Gillingham not sustaining it- I don’t recall people saying Bristol couldn’t sustain it last season. I think they were identified all along as our biggest threat in the race for promotion (along with Preston).

I think a more relevant comparison is Tranmere and Orient and look where they both are now. However, I do rate their manager and whilst I don’t think they’ll maintain a real top 2 challenge, I certainly wouldn’t bet against them getting in the top 6

Can see that Wigan win (especially the way they did it) being really significant for them, a bit of a turning point belief-wise.

Even so, it's all about us. In terms of belief, Nigel is busy massaging his positivity into every nook & cranny of the club. If there was a league table for positivity, we'd be topping it right now.

Entirely predictable result of our dismal failure to recruit on transfer deadline day.

Apparently they were already a defender or two down on Saturday. But yes, I agree, certainly compared to Wigan and ourselves, they have a smaller shot.

Don't worry! Only judge us after ten games, remember
