And yet here we are, no longer victims of a gypsy's curse, and with possibly the best manager in the lower divisions, and still we have 'old school' moaners. Look at the whinging and whining on yesterday's Barrow fred. You'd think that rather than finishing up with a draw we had been taken to the cleaners.
I forecast a 3rd place finish at the start of the season and I stand by that judgment (although I admit to wobbling a bit after the Sutton game).
Come on, chaps, let's count our blessings a bit more and go easy on our defenders rather than constantly rubbishing them. By this time next season, if we can keep our nerve, we could well be challenging in the upper reaches of League 1.
I count myself very lucky indeed.

Not so long ago it seemed like we were going to be stuck in non-league forever. Now we are not only back in the league, but right up there as serious contenders for promotion to L1. We have a very good squad for this level, a fine manager & excellent owners who are gradually improving all aspects of our club infrastructure.

And still, some people are not happy...
