    Would you be happy with that, come the end of the season?

    I would, mid-table would do me nicely. Especially when you consider the start we had.....

    Yes

    it would be a massive improvement on the last 3 seasons. Ive always said that if we can finish 3 or 4 places higher each season then i'd be over the moon.

    Without a doubt. It would just be nice to be safe in March/early April. Having been bottom with 1 point from 6 games we have done superb to be where we are now. Given the start we had survival should really have been the goal but Robins has done such a good job we can almost forget about the start of the season. But just think, if we had picked up even another 7 points from those first 6 games we would now be 8th.

    I'm not so bothered about the final league position

    Since I have a ST, I like to see us doing well in the home fixtures (and against the local teams). Assuming we are not going to be in a playoff position, that is.
    For example, I would have rather won last night (against the blunts) than last week (against Peterborough)

    It would be a step in the right direction. Its so tight at minute, any team could string a few results together and suddenly end up in play-offs. Lets not forget, Burnley got going late last season and ended up being promoted. I'm not being over-optimistic or anything but i think if we start turning our chances into goals and putting games out of reach of opponents, then we've as much chance of a glut of teams in this division to actually hit the play-offs. Having said that i am certain that we;re going in the right direction with robbins at the helm. Anything around mid table is acceptable.

    If the product on offer over the season is entertaining then yes.

    Absolutely

    We looked dead and buried after the first few games. We now look capable of beating any side in the league, provided we stick a few percentage points more of our chances away.

    I would be well pleased with a mid table finish and 3 or 4 boring end of season games. Forgotten what those are like.

    Certainly

    After such a dreadful start, I'd be delighted with a mid-table finish married up with half a dozen 'meaningless' games at the end of the season.

    15th would be one hell of an achievement.

    I thought we'd get about 20 points all season after witnessing Robins' first game.

    He's turned things around brilliantly.
