    Where traditionally the team's struggled to get a result, we've come away undefeated, four goals scored, accumulated four points and more than held our own against two promotion favourites.
    I still believe patience will be required, as results and performances will fluctuate until this group of players blend together as a team & start to hit consistency.
    However, if I can't enjoy a deserved away victory at Sheffield Wednesday with such a totally dominant display, then perhaps I should watch a Liz Truss speech instead! :D

    Nobody should be that harsh on themselves; worse than a hair shirt with fishing hooks on the inside.

    Things are looking OK mate. A great result today, also I've got a feeling we've hit the jackpot with Mr Duff although, as you say, a bit of patience is required before we get the consistency.

    In Duff we trust. Up the Duff!! :):)

    Must admit I looked at our fixtures at Ipswich Fowls and Pompey ands said I’d take 3 points from the lot quite happily. Got 4 already and one game to go. If we can get another 3 I will be over the moon with that return But even if we lose we will still have done better than I expected

    If we draw with Pompey I will have been spot on :).

    If he does turn us round, he will not be our manager for long. The lure of compensation will be too much for our board and Duff will want his chance with a “bigger” club just like Hecky, Struber and Ismael.

    I know it seems like a Catch 22 situation, but I'd prefer it when we are winning games and making progress than watching losing every week like we did last season.
