    Back to reality. We certainly ought to be getting a point against Scunny.

    What are 'the likes of Scunny'?

    Promoted teams, you mean? Like Hull and Donny last year. Yeah, we always take them apart.

    I would hardly class Scunny alongside Hull, a club with a lot of money available to them, at this level and a huge support, scunny should be the sort of team we beat, especially if we are hoping to do well this season, if we dont expect to then losing to them is fine

    But I'd put them alongside Donny who surprised a few sides last season.

    An organised team just promoted who would have been well up for their first home game.

    But they are comparable to Donny last year.

    An unknown quantity. You can't 'expect' to beat any side, for my money. This division has 20-odd teams equally as bad.

    To a team that only lost 2 and drew 5 at home last year?

    Good post. You are right to point out that we will have a better idea after 10 games to assess form, and which teams are likely to be challenging for promotion.

    For your money?

    Would that be the money that never sees the light of day perchance?

    :pff

    I spent a bloody fortune. I woke the next morning hoping I'd been mugged.
