well there's two sides to it - inarguable points on the board but the feeling that it will be hard to keep winning if we don't up our performances. we've given ourselves a platform with these wins though, so well pleased with that as you can often look ahead thinking 'that should be nine points' and then don't get them. That's a very fair comment, but the point I am making is that it's all about taking one game as it comes and beating who is in front of us. Each win increases confidence, and with every three points gained scruffily we gather momentum and develop a winning habit. Each game won in this manner buys Alan more time to address any issues elsewhere. Then, if we're fortunate enough to be still grabbing points and being in the mix at the business end and it does start to come together from 1 to 11, watch out everyone else! County are a jigsaw, and we've only just started to sort out the corners and the straight bits. |

I know Woolfe has plenty of critics but when did we last have a winger who actually went past his man and put in a good quality cross?

County are a jigsaw, and we've only just started to sort out the corners and the straight bits. The effect on confidence - and, hopefully, subsequent momentum - is key. It wasn't a classic performance yesterday (although, arguably, the standard of opposition may have dragged ours down a tad), but I did get chance to speak with both Lees and Woolfe after the match, and, no two ways about it, each was absolutely buzzing about the current run of results. We do, of course, need to keep it going to stand a chance of sneaking into the play-offs. The players appear to have the belief, though. And that ain't a bad start...  |

He has been in and out of the side, and had bad luck with injuries - but yesterday, we saw for the first time what he can really do. Tremendous stuff. He certainly can deliver an accurate cross, alright. And hooooowwwww...!  |

Yes as has alrady been said 'we didnt play that well' but job done and 3 points taken; 10 points form 12 cant be faulted in my book. Negatives if any; are Fagbolas hamstring injury - thought he put in a decent performance, and we need to be banging in goals like Boston so we can improve the goal difference as this may prove vital in the last frew games to secure that 5th play off place. Positives - we have a great strike force and Wiliinson is back, so we have the tools of the trade; we jusy need to use them well.
Keep up the good work County and it would be great to see the CE & Pop side restore the atmosphere at EP as the 12th man has very quiet recently, certainly since Vegas visited. I guess we all stil need to keep on believing.

I think it's obvious Hyde's issues aren't really in attack. If they could sort out their absolutely horrific defending then I think they would be an okay midtable outfit.
