    :embarrassed: The position that we find ourselves in has been emphasised by the list of televised games to December just released by the Football League. Normally we would have expected to feature twice. But while Blackpool and Burnley have three games we have none. Another blow, not only to pride but to the bank balance. Ah well must live in the real world.

    Afternoon tommyt..<ok>

    Yep Div 1 for us is the real world, certainly for at least this season and losing TV revenue from showing our games is but one of the financial losses we have to cope with. Should PNE hit the ground running and are able to maintain good form then it's possible the TV people will have to sit up and take note and respond accordingly. Of course good cup runs could also produce TV coverage but it's all ifs and buts.

    We lost every time we were on last season so maybe a blessing in disguise

    The one with the ORANGE kecks might as well stay on the PNE forum as there is no one else other than him on the Bleakpoo one..<ok>

    haha i'm only winding you up. Best of luck for the season. I do honestly believe we're highly underrated, but second place is right up for grabs. I can't see a clear favourite

    <laugh> Nice bit of banter and humour their nick...<ok>...good luck to you and your team as well.
    It would be a bit foolish to underestimate any team in this or any other division nick, and that includes the Prem. I was under the impression that CA were a good bet for promotion this season, so I will be watching out for your results. I don't get the impression that CA are underrated to be honest and think that they will be there or thereabouts come the end of the season..<ok>
