11 Games in now so probably a fair time reflect where we are?

It's quite good that I'm frustrated that we have only 15 points from those 11 games I think that probably highlights what I think, we have a better side than we have had for a number of years. It takes time when a manager makes a lot of signings for him to sometimes find his best team and I reckon we probably have in the last couple of weeks. Since the Stevenage debacle we've gone five unbeaten and in that five played three of the top six at the time played them. We have also conceded one goal from open play in those games. Going forward we look better Thomas with 6 League goals and Amond with 4 and that will keep going up. it's surely a matter of time before the goals Alessandra's play warrants come? Then we have Paynter and Fewster who scored plenty in this League last year not starting and the lad from Newcastle. An embarrassment of riches in that regard.

The biggest thing in recent weeks for me is the midfield and the inclusion of Laurent and Hawkins, more tempo, more energy exactly what is required at this level. They are both fit lads who don't drop off after an hour as well.

Defensively Toto has been called a liability and worse by some, I think he's going to be a really good player for us. Donnelly looks a quality signing. We have plenty of back up in that department as well, albeit some of it injury prone and getting on. Carson is the best keeper we've had since Dimi.

We can we really build something with this team I reckon, I'm not getting over excited or predicting anything in terms of play offs but I'm confident we'll have our best season for a while.

Considering we dropped 4 points in the previous 2 matches which were down to refereeing decisions, we could actually be sitting joint 3rd right now.

Amazing considering we're yet to win at home. Could really do with winning 3 or 4 on the trot and see where that takes us.
