    If I said I'd been entertained by most of our home games, I'd be lying. But your claim that our head coach "isn't brave enough to try and win" makes no sense whatsoever. We were clearly trying to win against Peterborough. The fact that we were 3-0 up at Port Vale at half time points heavily to a the fact that we were trying to win that game as well. However, Port Vale were also on the field, trying their hardest to get a result from the game, something I think is lost on a lot of people.

    I also think it's highly unlikely we'd have come from behind to win against Stevenage if we hadn't been trying to win. We've won half our games. Neill Collins is clearly trying to win football matches, and has by and large been pretty good at it. Unfortunately, he uses a style that a lot of people find not very pleasing on the eye. That doesn't mean it's not been effective.
