Defence!

We have one.

That's a decent performance.

First game we've won without Abdull.

The league usually levels out after about seven rounds, not saying we should be top three, but we do need to now aim for a home play off.

Until we get to June when we never win...

6 wins in a row. I think that might be a SL first for Rovers.

Torn between tamping down the hope and fighting the melancholy of supporting an ‘other team’ in 21st century England’s sporting backrooms.

Nice to see the club saying no to diffidence. I mean, I know the squad is better and likely more expensive than for a while. But, for however long it lasts, this simple focus on winning is so lovely. No other point to prove or personal agenda to fulfil, just a team trying (and often succeeding!) to win.

We rule supreme.
Lewis and Jez were simply outstanding, amongst (as ever) the whole team performance. The standard set by Willie is not only being matched week in, but seemingly nudging higher. Batch and esp Opi have been diamond signings and transformed our leaky right edge.
I’m only happy when it rains…

Apart from Wakefield, but they’re hot trash, so not important

That was one if The Skein's "facts", they have been dispatched, my gratitude at your correction.

As Willie Peters has said belief is the key and that goes for everyone, staff, players and fans. If you don't believe then the opposition will sniff that out.

Don't think you are quite there yet.
