I bust a gut to get there tonight, grumbled, cheered, urged them on and ultimately end up disappointed.
I should have learned by now not to have an expectation level - no matter the players, the manager, the backroom staff, Town always seem to have you on the edge of the seat.
In close on 27 years I have been a devout supporter, we have gone up twice via the play offs and once as third place. We don't storm leagues. Next season is now maybe 6 months away and I urge people not to raise expectation levels.
The team has a core of good players, that is obvious. If we get the right players in in the summer then maybe, but talk of us storming the division and going up as champions is far fetched. Perhaps I need a session with Black to make me ultra positive, but I challenge the bugger to be positive after 20 odd seasons of the same old same old.
Just remember - the good days absolutely make up for crappy Tuesday night performances, late concessions, rubbish referees and phantom pens. Oh hell, the expectation level is coming back!!!!!!

My expectation level was rekindled in the time it took me to get back to the boozer and realised we were still just six points off the play offs. I still think we can do it and I damn well hope those players do too. Until the last breathe this season!!!

Its gonna take somat special but 6pts is just 2 wins!!. We can see it as missed opportunities for us but we can also see it as missed opportunities for the other sides to have left us trailing Football is a funny sport sometimes and you just never know. Oldham and Leeds didnt look good last night and Scunny are strugglin a bit. If only we had that goalscorer!!
