    Poor league and we won't finish in a play off spot.

    We are not good enough.

    Looked like he'd tonked it way too high and too hard, but he almost got it bang on.

    A proper lob.

    It's not always about speed. More about good anticipation, seeing a run, spotting a chance and having enough pace over a few short yards to make it happen. You can bleep test players all you want, but the best strikers are the ones who sense exactly when to stroll or put a quick dart in. For me Cook and Rowe both know the art.

    Cheer up Fordy, cheer up! Or go and support Man City, Bayern, PSG and various other clubs who have the mega money to satisfy your high performance needs.

    Have to really disagree. Let’s be realistic, based on recent seasons and club antics we are a league 2 club in every aspect of on and off field. Cooke and Sutton are exactly where we are at, and to be fair to them (and credit to T&S) we have the seen the much better side of both them. Personally I like the two of them and believe they have played key roles in our recent up turn.

    100% agree - but in a sprint he still looks slow.

    There was a Canavan one before that too, probably not much in either but seen them given (think Cook against Newport, for example...)

    I live on the East Yorkshire coast where your fish come from. We know what they're called, because we catch em!

    And here's the real debate. What do you regard as fishcakes or fish patties? This is probably the biggest debate for me beyond our wonderful 4-1 win.

    Great result today. I think FGR were wobbling a bit before today but, if you read their message board (as JonButterfield commented earlier), you've sent them into meltdown. Can't work out what I think of the whole set up there. Their manager is a tool but there are other things about them I quite like. Apart from veganism of course.

    So, over the last fortnight, we've beaten FGR and Morecambe. We've got 8 games left and play Tranmere, Newport, Exeter and Leyton Orient. Really hope we can contribute to you winning a place in the play offs. How about two Cambridge - Bradford City fixtures when we're both in League 1....when fans can attend. Sending the love again, Sean
