Can we put in those performances at home and can players keep on form? That is the question that will get answered over the coming months.
What was promising about last night is this is the best we’ve been under SM and if it’s the worst we will be because they’ve not played together for long then the potential is there.
For me we just need to be careful about backing off when opposing teams run at our defence and defending those high balls into the six yard box and insuring that errors leading to goals from these do not undermine everything else that is good and promising.
Luck is just one of those things in football that you have to assume evens itself out. I don’t think there was much between the Fleetwood and Grimsby games in terms of performance, but in one of them we had loads of dangerous crosses and shots that were blocked and deflected just wide or just over or didn’t quite bounce for us, and in the other game the opposite happened.
Just had a look at their post-match summary thread, and it's generally pretty fair. Understandingly many are moaning about the officials, but mostly accepting that the best team won. A lot say that they don't know how Crowley and Jones are playing in League 2.Quote:

I mean, minus the name calling that's what I come here to read, so I don't really want it dragged off into a thread. That handbags thing was about 90% irrelevant to football or notts the few times I attempted to read it...Quote:

Just my opinion as a midwit bedwetting apologist.
Bedwetter !!!Quote:
