Thought we did alright today, I saw enough to be confident we’ll easily stay up.
Going to have to bookmark this. Easily stay up???

Meanwhile, back to the match....

I do feel sinisalo deserves a mention for his performance today, we would have lost by far more but for his efforts. He had little or no chance with those goals, and was unlucky with their first having performed heroics in keeping out the original shot. The best game I've seen him play.
So whose worked out Pete's account password then?

They've spent about 2 million on two of our players, before you get onto salaries. I don't think they're scraping the pennies together, relative to the level.
With debts of anywhere between 7 and 12 million, it might not be the pennies they worry about..

I weirdly enjoyed the match today and thought we showed some good elements to our game. Obviously disappointed with the result but I always felt like we had another goal in us. Eisa curled one wide late in the game, Harper also shot wide, and Alli had a header at the end. Alli will be a good player for us, a decent debut today.

2-1 was a fair result but a draw wouldn't have been robbery.

I just want to see the same desire, promise and opportunities created at home matches. It feels like playing away is easier for us, something that also happened in the Tisdale era.

We got spoiled by the (and fair credit to the guy) success that Tisdale brought to the club. My memory goes back to the likes of Appleton, Fox,Blake, McNab when we were sh*t.

Some people seem to have forgotten it’s quite possible to have a poor manager.
Lucky you...not being here for Francis.

Yeah, thankfully Francis was a bit too early for me. Dad took me to a few games when I was younger, a game against Villa I think and the Leicester & Newcastle FA Cup games. Then started going with mates around 84/85.

Right, I don't know how healthy their accounts are. I do know, beyond reasonable doubt, that the amount they've spent on their team is a lot higher than us.

Fair comment, I just think many have forgotten how demoralising a poor manager can be. We’ve been spoilt for many years.
