Great bit about us on Football 365.

[Surf's Up]

Barring a disaster of unfathomable proportions they will take their place in the Premier League next season, and no club is more deserving. A favourable draw and FA Cup run would be a wonderful side order.

What a load of absolute tosh...don't these people know anything? We havent got a cat in hells chance and thats the truth of it!!

 

[FatSuperman]

Others might be. I'm still with Spartacus... I mean, I'm with hans kraay and Dick Swiveller. I'll start to believe if we're 28 points clear with three minutes of the season left And we're 5-0 up. Against nine men.

Maybe.

In this situation I reckon I'd be teetering on glass half-full, however that does depend a lot on who the ref is.

Looking at Mike Dean's performances, he'll be officiating Championship games very soon as he embarks on a journey down to amateur football.

Knowing our luck, the **** will be reffing us more than he does he beloved Spurs. He'll have the Reading, Newcastle and Derby matches - I guarantee. The opposition players will be buzzing around him like flies over shit each time he goes to his pockets knowing that if they can snatch a yellow card from his grip, he'll produce a red for one of our players. We don't stand a chance with him in charge.

That's done it. Were loose

That bit about us improving players mentions Jiri Skalak - have I missed something? Apart from that cross for Murray's header against Norwich he seems to me to have gone backwards.

I was just reading this and thinking "wow, we've got to page 3 and nobody has slated our own players yet".

I love the bit about improving Glen Murray.

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

We wont be going up this season.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

That's torn it.
What do you think our average attendance will be in League 2

Well, I like it seems a good majority, are loving the moment, but dreading the dip in form and confidence that pessimism demands.
Everyone I speak to from other clubs, all but congratulate me (us) on promotion FFS! Even Bookmakers (often the best guide) are giving absurd odds. I checked on Bet365 our price to be promoted and was staggered. I expected about 4/6 on as a great indicator for us, but they say.....1/10 on! I wish I could share that optimism.

Err - set up more goals than anyone else in our squad this season. A bit of a dip in form of recent but he's been at least 7.5/10 this season.

That is a 'value' price compared to most.....1/12 in most places, 1/16 on Betfair and 1/18 on Paddy Power.

Doesn't help when you're trying to keep an even keel on expectations. On paper its a no-brainer, good bet etc. None of us can even contemplate the utter crapness of not doing it. The one thing that keeps me cool is CH. When he starts panicking it's time to worry.

If CH was panicking how would we be able to tell?

He will lift his hands higher than elbow level.

If he blinks more that twice in a game?

Crikey.

His panicking face looks like this:-



Which is in stark contrast to his winner v Birmingham face:-

He'll unscrew his beloved bottle of water with a slightly more pronounced action while standing in the technical area.

Lovely post.

His self-control is incredible and so admirable.

Impossible to calculate the importance of this "even keel" in helping players negotiate the ups and downs of a sporting season. Makes you wonder how some of the clowns get paid millions per year to be managers and then behave in such obviously unprofessional and counter-productive manner on the touchline...?
