    On the Cheltenham game nice to see the Grigg poachers goal very similar to the Gregory goal we conceded against Pigs both goalie errors we arguably we haven’t had anyone like this since ALF
    Derbyshire and Nardiello were poachers but you’re right. It’s the type of player we have been needing for a while.

    Top 3 scoring teams in league 1 so far... MK Dons, Bolton and Morecambe. Haven't played MK and clean sheets against both Bolton and Morecambe. Argue the facts. Most clean sheets in the league so far. Argue the fact. One of 3 teams to have conceded fewer than 10 goals so far. Argue the fact.

    Just because we haven't played some of the so called 'big teams' yet does not mean we haven't been tested. Nor does it mean we can't be positive about our defence as we have tangible evidence by those we have played. Have some respect for other teams and our defence. You're judged on playing every team, not just a few bigger clubs. The constant moving of the goalposts because your narrative isn't met is absolutely pathetic. You are wrong, as is often the case. Waiting for us to have a bad game defensively to try and validate your own opinions is pathetic. I won't respect someone who doesn't admit when they're wrong.

    4 goals against Fleetwood aside, we have conceded 5 in 10 games. Put some respect on that. We aren't perfect but we are a league 1 team, we won't be.

    I watched the game and i thought it was so obvious the quality of our players compared to theirs, yes they had two or three of their key players unavailable, but we had a couple missing as well. We have a good quality squad and we can do well in this league, if we avoid too many injuries, keep our best players in January and keep the in game management at the level it has been at in the last two games. Smudge didn't have a good game today, but it shows we can have our main striker miss chances and still get a result away from home. A wonderful solid performamnce, the viking needs to stop trying to get assists for the other team, he got away with THREE today, but well done to the players and the management a real professional performamce.

    Season ticket holders are counted whether or not the people physically attend the games.

    I said at the beginning the only position we are short in is the left side of the back three, I think Tilt going out on loan was a money saving exercise and contrary to popular belief I believe he would have made that position his own, all he wanted was to be playing, he went to Wigan late and due to their good form he has not been able to force is way into the team ! I think we should bring him back in January !!

    We have probably the best midfield in this league with Barlaser,Rathbone and Wiles.When you have a midfield that is so good it takes the pressure off the defence and having lads up front who are eager to collect the ball and converting the chances, we are looking good.

    Just got back from Cheltenham (made a jolly out of it). I echo the sentiments of others: good, solid performance and a cracking result. I was about 20 feet away from Wiles when he did that back heel. Stunning piece of skill. Onwards and upwards.
