On another note. This time last season we hadn’t won a game.
It's just crazy how different things feel to just a year ago. I know there's absolutely no guarantee that we can maintain this recent form, but the transformation so far feels way ahead of schedule. Owners, coaching staff and players all deserve huge credit for bringing a feelgood factor back to the club. I can't remember feeling like this about the club since the Keegan days.
 
I think they had 2 decisions go against them , as bad as ours against palace, they lost 1-0 but should have won 2-1

Re-stickied this thread and unstickied the Prediction League until closer to restart date. After all football continues in the lower leagues - e.g. Sunderland are back in action on 3rd December so we don't want to miss that.

And also where else can I put an interesting article like this one:

Warrington goalkeeper Tony Thompson sent off after confronting fan who urinated in his bottle

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/63691613

A non-league goalkeeper says he was sent off for reacting to a fan who urinated in his water bottle during an FA Trophy tie. Warrington Town keeper Tony Thompson, 28, squirted the Guiseley fan after drinking from the bottle. It led to him receiving a red card an hour into Warrington's 1-0 home defeat on Saturday.

"Today I fell out of love with the game!" former Altrincham and Morecambe player Thompson tweeted. "I've been called many names but for someone to [urinate] in my bottle, for me to drink it and then to be told I wasn't allowed to react because I'm a player is outrageous. "That person has put me my family's health at risk and knocked me sick."

Guiseley released a statement on Sunday saying they have requested CCTV footage from Warrington Town so they can investigate the incident and identify the supporter involved. "We unreservedly condemn this disgraceful action," Guiseley said. "We deplore the actions of the individual(s) concerned and we will work alongside Warrington Town and the police to identify them. "If the individual(s) involved can be identified they will receive life bans from attending Guiseley AFC fixtures."

The incident led to a long stoppage as players confronted fans behind the goal at Warrington's Cantilever Park, before the referee gave sent Thompson off. "I don't think I'll ever be involved in anything like that again," Warrington boss Mark Beesley told The Warrington Guardian. "The Guiseley staff apologised - it was disgusting and there's no place in life for things like that. "From our point of view, the welfare of our players is paramount and what Tony was subjected to was disgraceful."

The fan should be charged by the police.
