    Time for a rallying call, I think. We've been here before in the first half of the season, folks. We lost 5 out of 6 from 17 Sep to 18 Oct last season and 8 on the trot from 3 Oct to 14 Nov the season before. We came through it then and we will come through it again. 5 successive defeats and we're still 4 points clear of the drop zone with 4 teams below us. We start afresh at Brentford next week. Come ooooonnnnn!

    Those were the autumns of our discontent. This season it's the winter of it. Roll on January.

    Certainly have, 1986, only won four before New Years Day and only lost 4 from then to the end of the season.

    Last season we were playing reasonably well. Scoring goals and losing. This year we look well out of our depth unlikely to score and a poor team. It can change but we need to pick up 6 points between now and January then hope for some good signings.

    We've won only 4 home league games in 2017. So a bad 2nd half of last season, and a bad first half of this. Something has to change.
