Accy under Coleman are no mugs,so a clean sheet and a point away at their place is a good point,UTC

We’ve W2 D2 L2 from our first 6 league games and scored F9 A5.
That’s perfectly acceptable so far in my book.
Plus 2 of our 3 home matches have been resounding victories, so apart from the Cheltenham blip, where we certainly weren’t outplayed, our early home form has been good.
If you throw in cup games (and forget about penalties) we’ve scored F7 A0 in 2 away ties.
The only proviso I’d say is that our early season fixtures don’t look like our hardest ones this season, on paper anyway.
True, you could say we haven’t played are hardest games yet. However I don’t think we’ve hit full throttle yet..and like you say we’ve just a few blips. I’m quite confident we are going to above mid table.

Definitely take 8 points and ninth place at the moment. Yes we have trickier games ahead but often that brings out the better in us.
Still time for those extra signings too.....

Yep as everyone has alluded too, when Nombe gets injured we are in trouble. I only want us to sign one striker and keep bringing Cox through not loan him.

I agree. Strikers thrive on confidence and so we need to show confidence in Cox to show that we value him.

One of the worst games I’ve watched in a long time. There was zero quality from either side. Could’ve played another 90 and don’t think there would’ve been a goal in that game. Good point though.

Harper was probably the only positive. Looked a lot more lively than anyone else and won a lot of balls.
Strange how different people see things differently. I thought that was an absorbing game between two teams, who both played well defensively, but both had different styles. They were very physical and long-ball whereas we tried to play more through the midfield with a passing game. However neither team had that touch of quality, or stroke of luck, to make the difference.
Both teams could have won it, but neither team 'deserved' to win it. A point was a fair result.

Sounded like Stubbsy getting back to near his best.
