    Three to the playoffs

    Three players we desperately need to compete, possibly for the playoffs: #1 striker, #2 creative midfielder; #3 left back.

    Reckon Niko will be left back cover. Agree with the other two though.

      Nah forget the play offs, I want to see us build a side around these young lads we have, clear out some more dead wood and gear up for next season.

        Is this post for real? 3 games ago we were relegation certs. Our squad had zero talent and our manager was clueless. We win a few games and all of a sudden were play-off contenders?!!

        Let's keep our feet on the ground. Mid table is realistic this season if we keep playing well. Anything above that would be a near miracle!

            There's nothing wrong with aiming 'high'

            He was thinking like that because he was 'high'

                  Not sure about the left back. I think you'll see a lot of improvement from Bidwell now Henry's been shown the door. Give the guy a chance anyway!

                      It's a funny old league. Reading if they had won would have gone third but they were woeful

                      In reality this league is not a hard one to master you need organisation, hardworking players and a goal scorer and you will be right up there

                        I think they are still 3rd west.

                        Have said before, this league is w@nk. Take away Brighton and Newcastle who are 2 very good sides, the rest are much of a muchness. Teams like Reading, Sheff Weds, Derby etc all up there and none of them are that good at all. As you say, all about being organised and working hard and having the ability to nick that goal to turn the draws into wins (albeit that is all easier said than done!).
                        You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

                          Excactly! Every time we win a game people start to speak about playoffs... and the very same are those who go mental when losing one! wtf... just get behind the team and manager and be patient! We need to replace few players with more hungry, talented players and grow them into stars! Ollie simply doesnt get given the money he need so it has to be done the slowly patient way!
                          got it??

                              I think the trick is not to get too high when we win, and not to get too low when we lose...
