Whilst it’s exciting to have great expectations and I’m certainly guilty in that regard, I’m also conscious that our footballing level is pretty well commensurate with our current league position. Notwithstanding, I am hopeful and believe that we have a good opportunity to achieve the playoffs.

The initial league success achieved at the start of the season was clearly not a true reflection of our prowess, as the recent form has demonstrated. I’m prepared to accept that we are in fact a ‘top half’ Championship team, but nevertheless look forward to us again ‘punching above our weight’ and making the playoffs.

Such ambition is of course achievable providing the players show commitment, spirit and a better attitude ! Having said that, the potential excitement of actually winning the playoffs would be frightening !

Take care and accentuate the positive.
