A bit of luck thrown in too...

When things go your way, they go your way, strange isn't it?

Pleased though.


I went to the 'boro game (abandoned!) but in that first 30, we absolutely dominated, Hyam and Drury look hungry, Martin and Chopra have loads of energy.

Still shaky at the back mind.

No, I didn't go. Almost did. Glad I didn't now!!

Chops has hit some form. 4 in 3. Glad for him after his 'issues'.

JET also coming on song like Lee Martin. Now almost definitely safe (huge relief after terrible mid season form).

12/13 points off the playoffs. Probably too late now but if we keep this sort of form going and playing well, we may just sneak in????

The top teams are doing their best to let us catch up smile

Sorry guys, I am going to the Cardiff game.

I predict the end of the run. This season I have been a bit of a jinx, excepting the Coventry game.

Still, I will be in the directors box if anyone has some messages... wink

You're going all that way? I know it's nice to do a couple of away games every year, but Cardiff?

Good luck.

Tempted on Brighton, although I may have left it too late

It is a home game.

Still 800 (ish) mile round trip though.

Could have sworn we had two away trips on the bounce, hmmmm, may wander along then

quietly confident about the cardiff game.....we seem to be a bit of a bogey team for them and it would be nice to keep the run going.

I'm sure he's tried, but there's not many spare tickets these days for one of the top 8 teams in the country... wink

To be fair, there wasn't when we were League 1 either. Support the binners can only dream of (on the occasions they can defrost their council-owned pitch)

Seems my jinx is lifted.

In truth we were second best for most of the first half, Cardiff just had nothing in the final third.

JET had their defence worried. Everytime he touched the ball they backed off and backed off.

There must have been some words at half time as the second half performance was much better.

Delaney actually had a good match and my previous comments about him being a talentless lump may have been a touch harsh! He did simple things well and didn't get a blood rush and imagine some silky footballing skills live aomewhere in his size 10's
