33 games to go, and investment incoming. Not as bleak as some people thought a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully a victory on Saturday and investment confirmed, there should be a lot more optimism regarding SAFC.....Ha'wayyy

We are in a decent position at the minute without really playing well in the majority of games
A fully fit Watmore and a goal scoring Will grigg could be the difference of finishing in the top 2 at the end of the season, plus hopefully we will sign a little bit quality in January someone like maddison would make us very strong going in to the 2nd half of the season
Ipswich are going to ****e so that’s handy.
Looking like Peterborough are very much the team to beat. Quality and consistency.
A win on Saturday and we will be right in the pot.
We’ve a game in hand on 3 above us as well of course, which is another positive.

We played well last night and played reasonably well v Portsmouth & Wimbledon. That's 3 games from 13 and still find ourselves within touching distance. That's how poor this league is. If we can put in some decent performances we'll piss this league with the squad we have imo
I'll take 2nd now at the end of the season 
Aye amazing what a good performance does. I still believe we will win the league - only a couple a days ago people where going on about playoffs at best 
Not being top of the league takes a little of the pressure away as we're in the trailing pack.
Hitting top spot on the first weekend in May would do me very nicely thank you.

Top 2 is still very much doable, but, let's not get too carried away. We need to actually build some momentum. Tuesday could still be a one off rather than the new norm.
The signs were positive though, and Ipswich faltering is a good sign.... even Peterborough started like this last season as well and fell away, so if we can get going ourselves there's nowt to worry about in this division.

Totally agree, Peterborough and Portsmouth started really well last season and both fell away when it mattered. The squad we have and the addition of a couple of players in January should see us finish in an automatic spot.

Agree with this. I think sometimes some have a tendency to get too despondent after a bad game but equally others get far too optimistic after a good one! Tuesday was great, really enjoyed it and it's the kind of ruthless performance I'd associate with an automatic promotion team but let's be honest, a top two side will likely have runs where they string 8+ wins together in a row, that's the kind of thing we need. Equally we need to be beating decent sides, so far 12th (Rochdale) is the highest up team that we've beaten. We've played and failed to beat 5 of the top 6 (still to play Coventry). So whilst I'm delighted with the last performance we've got a long way to go before I start thinking we've got a genuinely good chance of top two
Tuesday means **** all of we don’t get a result at the weekend.
It was a lovely ray of light but we need a ****ing heatwave.
Season starts now. Let’s have a look in 6 weeks time.

Aye, that's all Dross had to do to win over the fans!How quickly things can change.
Won't get too carried away about January investment but good to get a win and a performance. We were never adrift but didn't look like a side that was going to pull ourselves back into it
We need to add pace in Jan if possible as Watmore is inevitably going to get injured at some point.
