If they totally ran all over us and beat us up the first leg I?d be on the floor with my optimism, but they didn?t.Quote:

It?s a football match between 2 teams both not in particular good form, anything could happen.
Of course it's possible.Quote:

We might find the right formula almost by accident.
By the same token, there's no point starting a thread on a message board like this and saying the alternative view can't be heard. Those who are not so optimistic can point to a fair body of evidence to justify their relative pessimism, and if the manager, player and club want those doubts to be expressed less frequently, they need to address the shortcomings we've seen this season over the summer.
I don't know if this counts as a 'glass-half-full' or 'glass-half-empty' view, but I won't be as devastated as I normally might if we don't end up being successful in the play-offs this season. My heart of course wants promotion, but my head tells me we're genuinely not ready yet and that we probably need to keep building until we're the proper finished article, bashing our heads against the top of this league, much like we eventually were in the National League.
Anyhow, I've bought my season ticket for 2025/26, so what will be will be...
Missed the news on Didzy, we?re doooomed 😂Quote:

It's 90 minutes of football with two teams each having eleven players per side, playing for a Wembley date a highlight for any footballer especially at this level plus both teams have shown similar form for the majority of the season so "COYP"
