Loving the topic Southampton Gull, as i took a fair bit of stick from Brucie for sticking up for the team! Let's just say i was called a fair few names!
Would seriously like to know what he thinks about this decent run for us? Whether he thinks it hides cracks or whatever?
Wubble U, you make some good points, and whilst we may not have a complete plan B, i think you are correct in saying that this would be due in part to our financial position this year. Hopefully things can improve for us in the future, but now, i think many of us would prefer a decent L2 standard first 11 with a few fringe players on the edges than a relegation side first 11 with similar standard replacements.
We have hit a few teams having a bad run, and dont forget transfer window coming up soon so players gonna have to show they are worth keping or being put back in the non league werea majority deserve!! love ya work Brucie

On the subject of us not conceding I also think that Southampton Gull kept saying what a liability Mark Ellis was, but I don't see any snapshots of his posts about that.
Whoever was right and who was wrong doesn't change the fact that these three wins have dug us out of what was becoming a perilous situation.
We have got a pencil thin squad and its imperative that we didn't get anywhere near the bottom. Still have dozen games to go to the half way point and we almost have half the number of points needed for survival.
On that basis I will admit that Ling has done a good job.
Its clear that we are not going to compete with many of the half decent sides in this division but the key is beating the dross and another three points against Plymouth will be a huge result.
Do try & learn the difference between have & half. What you have posted informs us that there are 58 games in the season & therefore extra teams in L2, that none of us have heard about as yet. Up to your usual standard of accuracy then!

Correct. He was a liability, proved time and again, perhaps the defensive qualities of our Assistant-Manager are paying off? Saah seems to be improving as well.
