Another Saturday goes by and it’s clear we have turned a number of corners recently.
Great piece from Joey in the programme yesterday. Fans have so much energy as we watch thus team make the most of their potential. Great to see 8,000 in stadium yesterday.
There have been requests from a few to get the ground breaking bus out of the garage. It is now fully serviced and ready to go and ready to travel - yet again. I’ve started a new thread as it seems like a new period has started for the gasheads.
The bus is empty but I know a few fans who have been waiting patiently for this moment.
Yet again, we now have a winning mentality on the pitch and with our fans. We are now in this together. We have not seen this togetherness for a few years. It's great to see.
It's going to be one hell of a ride. With a game in hand we are in touching distance of the playoffs.
Where will finish at end of season?
For me Play offs would be great - automatic promotion even better. I aim high but I'll be delighted with a wembley trip and promotion through that route.
Ground-Breaking Goal - Champions - Win the league
Stretching Goal - Automatic
Realistic Goal - Play offs
Security Goal - Finishing just outside play-offs but much hope for our future.
We are in top four in the league two form table and so there is reasons to be happy about the recent past and very optimistic about the future.
The next four games will help us continue the belief that we might be able move up the table.
Sutton: (won four of last six) Oldham: (haven’t won in six games) Mansfield: (won the last six) Sutton: (won four of last six)
Joey and a few others have turned our club around since a year ago. We are now a pleasure to watch. Never boring. I feel we can win matches. We can now be confident that we can defend and attack. Our best days lie ahead of us.
The bus is driving around picking up happy, excited and energised fans. Are you on board for this journey?

I definitely think the second and third promotion spots are up for grabs! Looks like FGR have dibs on top spot.

Our defence gives us hope and we know we can score these days. I’m sure Joey will be talking about playoffs in programme notes and in the media. In the dressing room they may well have more ambition than that. We have a believable winning mentality and anything is possible. When we do well in our next four games many fans dreams will be on their way to becoming true. Can’t wait for Tuesday. 🤞🤞

The two Sutton games and the Mansfield game in the next couple of weeks are going to be very tough tests. If we can take good points from these three matches as well as the must win game if we're serious against Oldham coming up, you just never know.

I mean eventually you’ll start one of these threads and it’ll actually go well

I’m sorry, I was looking for a ground breaking mole

For me with our current form, playoffs is more than doable…. We have a pretty tough run in with the most of our final 5/6 games against the current stronger teams in the league… that coupled with our slow start to the season are my reasons for playoffs (and I think we’ll finish 6th or 7th)…

This is the day. 🤞Our club have had a few false starts but this time on and off the field there is a sense of togetherness that we’ve not seen in years. The bus is filling up - onwards…

I think if we can get 9 points out of those games it's really on

Over the last 10 league games the form has been W 5 D 3 L 2 So thats 18 pts in 10 games..near enough autos form. That included games against FGR,Swindon,Tranmere,Northampton,Port Vale. Ideally we need to get the same points haul or more over the next 10. Its achievable but there may be a time when several defeats or draws on the trot make us question if its possible. Thats where we dig deep and back the team even more.

Great to see our fortunes change for the better, the trouble is when playing catch up you can not afford any slip ups. I do not think we are at the stage yet where i can't see us losing, i am hopeful of an exciting end to season but not expectant.

I think if we can get 9 points out of those games it's really on Sutton, Oldham, Mannsfield. 9 points? Tough ask.
