    I hope Hopkin enjoys his pint tonight. After all the effort he’s put into this team, he’s finally seeing the fruits of his labour.

    6 weeks ago, I’d have said we need 6 or 7 players, after today we need to strengthen the defence and try keep the key loanees.

    Edin falls on his sword and his plans falls into place - what a man, what a sacrifice.

    I've always thought the squad was too squad to go down and have been confident of staying up even just after that Gillingham second half disaster

    It’s a long old season. We need a few more like today before we can start to feel comfortable.

    Need around 10 wins and a few draws to see us get 50 points.

    Big job to do

    goes to show how much confidence and form are major factors in football. We had a number of good players playing badly. now they are fitter with a bit of momentum these good players are starting to look what they are.

    nothing has changed to be fair. A few need to leave and we still need at least 2 defenders. Other than that I'm over the moon with the way we're turning things around.

    Big job indeed How. Think 50 is optimistic 54 in my view but I can tell you behind the scenes morale is up and all pulling with Julian. On the field?, well you've seen for yourself, long way to go but progress being made.

    7pts from possible last 12 in the league, 2 clean sheets included, things look alot better. Keep that form for 2nd half of season and we will be mid table no problem but we can't think we have turned the corner and it will be a breeze from here on in.

    On the up going into the January window and momentum could see us well in touch come it opening.

    Good to hear of that behind the scenes and I feel like Oxford was crucial for us at home. Weve grown since then

    To win 4 nil in a game where we were under massive pressure to get a result is very encouraging.

    Need follow that up with a win next weekend now. We need just shy of playoff form across the rest of the season. It is possible, but we've got to hope we can keep our best players Payne and LOB as well as improving the defence.

    The best thing is that the team has finally got some confidence and belief. The two draws against Peterborough could be the most important draws in recent history for the club.

    We'll piss it.

    We're only 18 points off the playoffs.
