Another fantastic 3 points today and we're now churning out the wins on such a regular basis that some fans are become a little bit blase about what it takes to go to places like Blackburn and secure the win.

The other thing is we're now showing a very good consistency of perfomance, every game is now following a similar pattern as we seek to allow our better players to win the match whilst the defence and in particular Rodon & Struijk look to keep things as tight as possible at the back. For the record only one Championship team has conceded less than our 20 goals this season and only two teams have outscored us as we continue to improve.
Sounds like your enjoying the championship <whistle>

What I'm enjoying is the 4 team battle for the automatic promotion places just as I enjoyed the fight against relegation in the PL.

However let's see how it all turns out come May because another season down here would mean the loss of our better players which potentially is worse for the long term future of the club than last season's relegation.

I thought the same until this season and now use it regularly. Free streams can be good too (Ben keeps trying to get me to watch the dodgy tv because he has paid for it) but, tbh, for the consistent quality I don’t begrudge paying the club a tenner to watch live :emoticon-0148-yes:
Why they cant have a season ticket to pay for all the games is annoying.

Another season "down here" might also give the opportunity for a few more Archies to break through which never happens in the PL. I find myself getting ten times the pleasure of watching his progress than any of the Johnny Foreigner mercenaries we brought in last season

So you’ll suffer more disappointment when he leaves if we don’t go up. Promotion is our only chance of seeing him play here next season.
 
Prepared for him to go either way. If any of the super duper six come calling he’ll be gone just like Kalvin. It’s the modern game and it stinks
Funny thing is, we came down from the greed is good league and have, arguably, a better team, certainly much more fun to watch. On Saturday I found the perfect solution, have a couple of beers and pretend there is no Premier League. Worked for me and loved every minute of our game.

I hardly ever watch any PL football anyway, same us I don’t bother watching German, Italian or Spanish leagues, I am only really interested in watching us whatever league we are in and have been impressed with lots of opposition players and teams this year too. Each to their own I guess.

We should form our own supporters club
 
Anyway, without going all Ell dramatic on you, tomorrow Marcos has another birthday (remarkable in itself) Ben is at work, Oli school, Jan has to go and see her horses, feck me, I am left with the pub and £10 to LUTV… if Carlsberg did birthdays :emoticon-0167-beer::emoticon-0148-yes:
Happy birthday and guess it’s hard being Mr Unpopular in your house. Just make sure you don’t get too exited strip except for your bathrobe and cravat and watch Debbie does Dallas with a pint in one hand and Mr Todger in the other. Only for the family to bust in with all your relatives from all points UK and say SURPRISE ! <laugh><laugh>
