Encouraging Signs!

When did we last get something out of a game when we didn't deserve to? We should have lost to an impressive Morecambe side, but we didn't; definitely a point gained!

I also enjoyed the brawl in the Bradford game. Sorry for abandoning the principles of the beautiful game, but for too long we've looked a bit soft-to see all the outfield players go for Omar Daley after his shocking challenge on Phil Bolland was encouraging.

The only really frustrating aspect of the last couple of days was, after snatching a bonus point against Morecambe, we then find Dagenham and Mansfield had won and we were five points adrift of safety. Still, climbing off the bottom's a patient game. We have to focus on what we're doing; if we can keep grinding out results and accumulating points, even if a lot of them are through draws, we'll catch some of the teams just above us eventually. After all, they're down there for a reason; they're not much good!

If only Chester hadn't made such a good start to the season. The way they're in freefall now those early points in the bank are stopping them from joining us!
