The Large One
Who's Next?
The season as a whole can't really be described as 'mediocre'. Most of the games this season, we have either been pretty good or bloody awful.
Thankfully, the bi-polar performance swing is on the up at the moment, so let's hope it settles down to staying like that.

Abort, retry, fail
Our form away from home has pleased me. We have played some tough games and won some extremely well.
Our home form still worries me and our recent cup exploits may paper over the cracks. If I was offered 11th at the start of the season and a few victories in the cups then I would have taken it.

I expected us to be slightly higher midtable than we are, albeit with a different manager. So I'm pleased with our current position given the angst of the change in manager and the general unpleasantness at the time. I am f***ing delighted with how we are going and it seems Uncle Dick has pulled yet another rabbit out of the hat to dumbfound all his critics of recent months, me being one of them.
Well chuffed
This season was always going to be about surviving at this level but hoping for better, we seem to be meeting that target comfortably...at the moment.

I'm just pleased Wilkins is starting to prove wrong all the people who thought he was'nt up to the job and it would ruin his career in football.

I'm happy with the way DW has started, and we're watching a newly reformed young side under him and may long it continue.

Agree with that although we haven't really had any league games since Wilkins changes really started to come into affect and the 'revival' started. Tranmere will be an interesting measure of well we can do this season. We haven't done that well at home and they are a good side who have been in and around the top 6 all season, if we win then we will be up to the top 6 ourselves and looking good for the rest of the season.Barrel of Fun said:

We wont go down with a degree of comfort so Im happy, still think the Play offs are unlikely, although the Tranmere game is a biggy in measuring whether we are outsiders to sneak in there.

As prevously stated. The game on sat will be a graet barometer of how far we have come.
Our home league form really must improve if we are to get anywhere this season but isnt it great getting excited about our team again

The crunch will come when we lose our loan signings and start to suffer injuries and suspensions. We didn't do too badly without Whing & Bowditch on Sat but Cox & Hammond must be close to 5 bookings.
One big plus is the way that Wilkins has got Robinson playing with confidence. If we can get another 15 goals from him then we'll be comfortable in higher mid-table and pushing a playoff spot.
At the moment I'm far more confident about the season than pessimistic - which wasn't the case 6 weeks ago.

I think the season has gone rather well.We have a team full of kids who are improving,a new and exciting manager.Plus we are still in two cup Comps.The play-offs are still achievable as well.If not next season looks very rosy if we can keep our youngsters.Hopefully Falmer is just around the corner now

It's been alright. I can't say i've enjoyed THAT MANY of our performances though.
That said, things look like they're going to get a whole lot better.

Er, i've been to three, and i'm going to our next two.
Forest - we were good for about 35 mins, then went to pieces.
Millwall - a scrappy game, hard to judge as we only had ten men for most of it. FANTASTIC result, but i didn't really enjoy WATCHING the football.
Bradford - FANTASTIC game, FANTASTIC performance (aside from a 20 minute spell that they dominated). FANTASTIC result.
At home, what games have i enjoyed? Well, the cup games have been a laugh, and spanking Orient was fun. Gillingham was alright I suppose. Other than that though, we've been GRIM.
So I think 'alright' is a fair assesment.

Our form has been superb in the last 7 matches, just hope when we finally lose we can get back to winning ways
