:whoo: 3rd in the table. Bring on the Boro and hopefully we will have our two main strikers back for them.

And a decent goal diff suggests you're playing good football. But I'll worry about dirty Leeds tomorrow before we head south to pillage 3 easy points from you...
 
So far on this thread I've posted these comments.......

I really worry for the rest of the season as our next 4 games are against Sheff Utd (a), Chesterfield (a), Gillingham (h) and Swindon (a). By the end of September we could be cast adrift at the bottom of the league. Oops I've posted an opinion but then again, what do I know?

Today we will be gifting three points to Chesterfield. I don't expect us to get a single point from our next 4 games with Sheffield Utd, Swindon and Gillingham after today.

So today saw the end of that four game run where I was confidently predicting a grand total of zero points. And we've managed to take 10 points. 10 points. 3 wins and a draw from what are arguably 4 of our toughest games of the season. Mind you we have got Bradford at home next up on Tuesday night so we're almost certain to lose that one.
 
Good win for Reading which will dampen my triumphant entrance to work on Monday after a rare win and even rarer clean sheet for Fulham. Loads of Reading fans at the club and work have said they've been looking a good side for a while now and seem to be getting on a roll

If they watched last season and the beginning of this, they may have noticed a bit of an improvement.:whistle:

Strangely a lot of the old players have suddenly upped their game, when their places were at risk in the team.:mmm:

Should be a good game, two teams in form. Not sure Vydra will be fit, but Sa back from suspension, and I fancy a little home win.:thup:

We've seemed to have learned how to win ugly when the going gets tough. If the opposition score 1 we seem to be able to sneak 2. If they dominate possession we're patient enoigh to let them, and then take the ball up the other end and score. Stuttered a little in the last few weeks but still won. Forest gave us a rare battering in the second half but still lost. Wolves cup match was 50/50 but we won 2-0, and dirty Leeds were guilty of mistakes but had by far the better/more chances and got beat 3-0.

There's a mindset building of when we score, not if. Mind you, we're picking up bookings by the bucket load, and that'll start costing the Boro soon.

We look like scoring goals now, which makes all the difference from last year. Blackman is on fire, and is not your usual forward. Pulls out wide to the right, and always cuts in and shoots with his left. Has a rocket shot. Hope your left back is quick and strong.;)

Our big weakness is the keeper. Drops crosses, doesn't save much, and can't kick.:eek:

Result at Burnley shows what we can still win without two main strikers. Strength is depth of the squad is best for ten years. Looking forward to the game.
 
Richart, care to explain this? Will you be singing it on Saturday??
