26 points out of a possible 30 on the road this season and going very well. It's going to be a massive test for our next and final home league game before Christmas on the 15th December. Play anything like we did today and make similar mistakes and it could be a trouncing...
They will go up at a canter and are already out of reach as far as I'm concerned. Second is attainable though and Tuesday night's game will be a good indicator of whether we've got what it takes.
They seem to be winning a lot of games by the odd goal but the main thing is they are closing games out and getting the results. We really cant give them the chances we presented Donny with today or they will get a hatful! They're not out of reach yet, but we don't want the gap to them getting any bigger before the turn of the year. If the gap extends into double figures then that would be very difficult to overturn. A lot will also depend on what we do in january as the team needs strengthening in several areas...
I think it's way too early to say top spot is gone. Well over half the season still to go and they haven't had a wobble yet, plus being top will no doubt draw attention to their better players, so January could also have a bearing on the title chase. I think there will be plenty of twists and turns before May.
2 wins ahead of us but we've the better goal difference .Not too big a gap yet and a lot of teams still in with a shout.
Still all to play for. They are in the driving seat & rightly favourites. Luton are on a good run as well & can't be ruled out as contenders for automatic.
