    I have always said Top 10...a significant improvement and achievement with our players. But have lived and enjoyed the dream these last few weeks.

    Last night was a Might-have-been if the shaving woodwork shots had gone in!

    Cant wait til midday!

    I shall now confirm my prediction: 8th!

    Damn, good save Heaton.

    Well, 10 minutes to go ..... looks about 0.25% likely but there we go.

    Well done Town, much better season, onwards and upwards I hope!

    Nouble has been superb since coming on I have to say. Taylor has done nothing!

    Spanish first of all can I ask how many of the last few games you have WATCHED the full 90 minutes?

    I saw the last 35 minutes of us today ( I'm in Thailand and time is awkward ) and the Watford game. I've hardly watched us all season - infact,,,, I saw us lose to Leeds/ QPR at home and draw at Reading, so 5 games, 1 point.... perhaps I shouldn't watch us!

    Well I think I'm realistic in what I expect. From the 35 minutes of what I saw, I thought Nouble did pretty darn well. seems to be a lot to work with from him.

    Agree, central mid is an area we need to improve. Skuse is a good player for me, he needs better wingers to work with.

    Watford was a game that could have gone either way at 1-1, crossbar then they scored. But realistically, them being able to afford the likes of Albert Riera makes it quite tricky for us to compete!

    I think we've made one hell of a lot of progress over the past 18 months, so I'd be interested to see where we are after 30. I will really only judge Mick properly come January next year. Until then, after the two previous absolute clowns in Keane/ Jewell he really will have my full backing.

    I don't agree with everything Mick does, however I think we're moving nicely in the right direction. 24 - 9 is a good start, lets hope 9 - 4 next year or something like that.

    PS - Naaaaaaaarwich look in a right old mess. COME ON MAN U !!! ( I say this NEVER ! )

    Fair enough mate, you are more than entitled to your opinion and we will have diff opinions on things, as we mostly do, lol!! I saw all of the Watford and today, not impressed one bit tbh but i have to hope a miracle of some sort happens during the summer, i have my wishlist but best i keep that to myself!!

    I only said that because my prediction has been proved right, I think I said we'd just miss out on the playoffs after being there or thereabouts all season but we'd miss out in the last couple of games <whistle>

    Yeah but 11th maybe 12th, not much progress in my opinion. We have the least creative midfield in the world, not just our division!!
