    True, but that statement looks even more ridiculous now.

    Next four matches are crucial. If we can get 9 points from those we are bang in the hunt. I predict that 82 points will get 3rd place so we need to go at 2 points per match. Are we clicking ? That 3rd win on the trot is the next vital hurdle to get over, the one we really struggle with, but get it and it's game on.

    In the end it’s going to be down on how we do at home. The away form will take care of itself.

    I thought before the Gillingham game that 10 wins from the last 15 should do it ........... now it’s 9 from 14 got a lot of winnable games coming up at home so if we can actually start winning at home then the away form will take care of itself

    After what I saw at Donny, and then Gillingham, I truly believe we have turned the corner. I know we've had a few false dawns, but something definitely seems to have clicked into place with this squad in the last couple of games. Unchanged lineup? Smallwoods roaming position more to the left of midfield, and getting forward more? More possession upfield rather than deep in defence?

    They seemed to just take the Gills game in their stride and looked confident, sweeping a decent form team aside with not much effort. I also noticed the players look fitter than before?

    It is a good position to be in

    Smallwood further up the pitch is a different player altogether

    Smallwood facing forwards is a different player altogether.

    I’ve been one of his biggest critics this season (justifiably IMO) but since he has had Clayton alongside him, he has been a different player

    I think Clayton is the type of player I was expecting Smallwood to be when we signed him.

    You a member of the @Fordy117@Fordy117 Cook is shite fan club? If not you ought to join. You can share miserable stories of times gone by when nothing has gone well and that made you somewhat happy.

    And stay away from Gareth Keenan, he's likely to steal your stapler and set it in jelly.
