peanuts Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 love your optimism thats the spirit think there are alot more twists and turns to come at the top of this division yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disjointed Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Thought you were going to say, no more cheap entry offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I like the optimism... ...but out of the 7 teams we're due to face at BP before the season ends, we've beaten 1 - Rochdale - lost to 4 and drawn 2. We're good against the teams around us, not the ones above us. Our away fixtures are the crucial ones, anything from the home ones is a bonus.

rudemedic Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Apart from Barnsley and dare I say it Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 There is so much more to come! If another team, Gillingham at the moment, goes on a run instead of a settled top five there will be a settled top six and LJ will have until next season to work out how to beat the strugglers - I wonder if attack, attack, attack might work.

ghostofcecere Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Apart from Barnsley and dare I say it DaleI think Hill will have Dale fired up for revenge for our result at their place even though they've fallen away from the play off chase now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I think Hill will have Dale fired up for revenge for our result at their place even though they've fallen away from the play off chase now They are 5 pts off it with 3 games in hand. This must be one of the worst divisions ever at this level, to have this many teams so close up at this stage of the season is just bizarre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opinions4u Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) Why does a close league equate to it being a poor division? It's a reasonable deduction if we're in the mix! Edited February 17, 2015 by opinions4u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Why does a close league equate to it being a poor division? Because it is highly unlikely that there are, say, 15 good teams in the same place at the same time. I'd compare it with horse racing. If the finish of the Derby is a closely fought affair between half a dozen horses then there are no superstars in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would equate our division more to a handicap race at Plumpton than the Derby though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 surely if teams are closer togrther in the league it means its more competative and anybody could win. I would say that makes for a better more interesting competition wouldnt you? Rich clubs does not mean better league, it just means they will be in with more of a chance. we are told the premier league is the best most competetive league in the world,same team every year at the top. Its not the best in the world, its the richest, big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Og Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Or half a dozen very good horses. It's unlikely, not impossible but unlikely. Genuinely outstanding racehorses don't come along every year. It is very, very unusual for several to be around in the same year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singe Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Why does a close league equate to it being a poor division? We are hardly playing swaggering, hard to beat football are we! Surely even the most myopic of supporters can see our position is falttering our performances. Fantastic we are in the mix, adn we have a good chance, but we could easily be 16,17,18 if we draw the next 3. And very few teams we have seen we have thought wow.
