The Business
BBC Essex did the same last year. For me were a long way to go and not playing that well so I think we have a lot of work to do.
I would be surprised if automatics didn't happen. We are having our dodgy spell now, we will turn it around soon and that will be the right time for the run in. Other teams will wobble like we have.
42 years ago we started an unbeaten run that took us up , why cant we do it again .7 points adrift and we are in terrible form with 12 games to go.
Love your optimism but in reality at the moment we need to improve just to finish in the play offs, I cant see how anyone can have much confidence of top 3. Its not impossible, but we would need to go on a good run, something we arent looking like achieving at the moment.

15 games left & 6 points if i'm not mistaken?7 points adrift and we are in terrible form with 12 games to go.

Too many twists and turns left in the season to come to any conclusions just yet.

CP just playing video of the Orient (2nd Leg...one year ago today). For me, it's not an particularly happy bit of nostalgia..... although it seemed so at the time. As I pointed out, between the Orient 1st Leg and the Final, our league form was W2 D5 L5..........goodbye promotion. The point I really wanted to illustrate was that, in the video, Assombalonga and Reeves were celebrating the latter's equalising goal..............how we could do with that pair in the squad now!
And the coincidence yogi is then we lost an influential lad in Timlin which was one of many reasons which deflated the promotion bid. And the closest we have to a leader in Luke Prosser is ruled out for a little while and when he returns will need a game or two further to get up to speed again. With it looking like there appears no movement in the transfer market you have to wonder if the big E is still in place????? So I hope I hope as far as promotion is concerned this year it is not a case of deja vu.
Our league form prior to that game wasnt great either.
Played 8 W 2 D1 L5
Our promotion push died long before we got anywhere near Wembley. November and December were ok, but January onwards we were terrible and only won 2 up until that goal went in to take us to Wembley on Feb 20th.
