Good stat. Just hope it doesn't put the bock on us for today!
 
And those last 9 seasons have been full of dross.

So, having been beaten today, we MUST be due a good season

No, definitely. Last 10 years have been truly awful since our decline from first division and always used to have good seasons in there surviving, which was always the aim. So maybe we will have a good season and achieve our aim as we lost!

Good theory work anyway!!

Absolutely, it's all part of Tilly's master plan, beating Cheltenham did us no favours last year so we lost today on purpose in order to secure overall victory come May. Right?

OK the truth is now known

TLG put the mockers on it

Ban him I say

I was about the only one who predicted we would lose today, but with 45 games to go, we can still make our target... of 72 points for the playoffs!
