    Not getting carried away by a long stretch but we’re approaching the mid part of the season and we are in a good position (for a change) do we have the players, attitude, coach, backing and minerals to pull off something special this season against all odds?

    Not for me, I think we’re doing just fine but can’t see us finishing above mid table unless we get some more quality in January. Perfectly happy with how we’re going at present though and you never know.

    Agreed. I honestly believe we will top the 60 point mark this term.A top half finish would be a good achievement this season.

    No deffo not good enough for promotion. Absolutely delighted with our current points tally and I believe we’ll be just fine. However, despite us being more resilient, It is still frustrating to see us frequently give the ball away, often not under pressure. Not only does our attacking move break down but we find ourselves at least desperately defending within seconds. This has been a trait for us so far this season and the sooner we cut this out the better and the more confident I will feel.

    If we can keep the core of the side together and make one or two shrewd additions, we're definitely on the tight trajectory for a tilt at the playoffs next season. But right now we're nowhere near ready.

    No, we've only beaten 1 team in the top half this season. We've got a long way to go before we can match the teams at the top. Heading in the right direction but more to do

    I don't think we're ready yet, but we are improving the whole time!

    It's not crazy to think that we could get some momentum towards the end of the season and sneak in... but imagine if we got promoted? That we are DEFINITELY not ready for!

    No, but if (and it's a big if) we can keep this team together into next season with some good additions we can make a push. Which is some going, given we were about to get relegated in the 92nd minute of the 45th game last season.

    We're a couple of suspensions and injuries away from being a bottom third side. It's possible that we'll strengthen in Jan, but even then I think that would do more to consolidate us in mid-table than it would to push us up into the play-off mix.

    Don't get me wrong, though, I'm really enjoying this season. I'm not feeling negative about it, I think we'll be fine.
