        Since when did the championship become an easy league?

        It's widely regarded as the hardest league to get out of, and this season will prove exactly that.

        We've had a great start, and it's given us a great possibility of getting promotion, but there's a long way to go. Ill take draws away at teams like millwall all day long.

        If we can still be top 2 by Jan with a couple of signings to give us am added dimension if needed we should be fine, but it's a long season.

        I don't think anyone expects us to walk the league. It's just a knee jerk reaction to conceding a last minute equaliser and seeing the team above you still win, that makes you doubt things, but I still think we're the best team and squad in this league by a big margin

          I think you're right Rebel.I know a lot will say that a win is a win,but it worries me that we've only scored 8 in 6 at home and 6 in 5 away.There's been a few unconvincing 1-0 wins and why Harry doesn't bring Chevanton on for the last 15 mins or so is beyond me,he lit up the place when he came on a couple of weeks back.Millwall put on a couple of strikers towards the end and it paid off. Long tough road ahead that is by no means a foregone conclusion.

            Again, who's ever said anything like that?

              Wow I missed that. Very unrealistic predictions IMO for a tough away derby at a ground we never do well at.

                The only way to look at this is if we were 2-0 down we'd have been delighted with 2-2.Accept and move on.

                  A lot of negativity after yesterday but all this talk of we haven't played anyone. It's only really Leceister and Burnley that are near us and both of them have only played one of what you would call the contenders. Long season with lots of twists and turns, we will be up there, look at the odds and bookies are very rarely wrong.

                    Still unbeaten for games.

                    Lets think positively.

                      Rangers and Orient are the only two clubs in the football league unbeaten. Now im worried, why aint we like all the others, we must be ****.

                        This makes too much sense!

                          the biggest compliments I've seen about us getting promoted have been from a Boro fan and a Millwall fan
                          I must away now, I can no longer tarry
                          This morning's tempest I have to cross

                              I remember us snatching an injury time draw (Mackie) v. Derby a couple of seasons back at about this stage of the campaign and everyone was ecstatic. No mention of losing 2 points. We are going to get these results, just look at some of the upsets so far in the prem. Long season, 27 points after 11 games is not too shabby...let's say 20 points from the next 11 and we are one win away from safety with half the season remaining. With 24 games to go from there another 30 points and we are in the playoffs..10 more and we are close to automatic.

                              Things looking very good indeed.
