    Yes, not brilliant form recently but we would swap places with them, right?

    If they get into the play offs they won't think anything of the recent poor run.

    We've got to give away clubs a minimum of 2,000 if they request it. The 2 blocks of Midland Road is only 1173 so that would mean we would have to cap our capacity at under 12000 which is in nobodies interest. You can't move the segregation in Midland Road without changing the layout of the concourse so that there is segregation in the concourse between home and away fans which would cost a lot of money. With the layout of the ground unfortunately there isn't an easy way to give away fans 2,000 without spending a lot of money on it.

    We got given just under 1900 for Carlisle and their ground holds 18000 so they gave us more than than 10% that they needed to.

    Oduor doesn't seem to have his own thread, so I'll just add my comments here. We've had some great performances from the likes of Gillead and Halliday all season, but for me, Oduor is the most improved player in recent weeks. I thought he played a blinder on Wednesday. I read recently that he was under instructions from Alexander to "run more" (or something like that). Even in previous games when he seemed to be drifting in and out of the action, he was still showing some great touches and technical ability. Now he's combining that with a load more effort, he's having a huge impact on how we take the game to the opposition. It's looking really positive for the run-in over the next couple of months.

    Yes it's no good being a one off.

    Some call it humour, just like the shout to groundshare with Harrogate I read on a post the other week. Some call it humour some call it naivety ?
