Post by oliv272 »

Brilliant to be up there on the table once again lets hope we can keep up this un beaten run with the next few games, hopefully we can keep this form untill the likes of o'conner are fit again. Things do look good for us being in the playy offs zone by xmas

According to Sky Sports we are 6th albeit on R being before S in the alphabet!! :lol: Personally I would have taken 6th place after 6 games.

Were already two points better off than this point last season, we were 13th after six games last year, 6th this year.

Looking at our upcomming games i see know reason why we should come out with at least 1 point from all of them throught out september so hopefully we can pinch fleetwoods position and already be in the playy off zone.

It isn't until the middle of October IMO that you should be looking at the table. Just concentrate on both gaining results and playing good entertaining football that we normally do to attract more people (not that it's working, but I'm certainly much happier about spending my money following the club to watch good stuff).

As for September the list is:

York A
Newport H
Southport A
Histon H
Crawley H
Eastbourne A

Out of that list, based on locations as well as teams you can only really say Histon should be a win. I could easily see us losing at York. They are under pressure for results now, and this is a game they could get up for quite easily. Newport have some great results so far, drawing with Luton to set off Luton's run of poor form, AFC Wimbledon on saturday was another draw. Spanked Kiddy. They might be a newly promoted side but we will certainly have to watch out. Southport are behind us on goals scored (not alphabetical, which is the reason we are behind Fleetwood). Histon, as much as you should say nailed on win, have been a bit of a bogey side for us in the past. Crawely, strong side, lots of money. And eastbourne have started very well scoring a lot and on their patch probably fancy themselves agaisnt almost anyone.
