This is what a mid-table season looks like.It seems many are happy to accept finishing mid-table, but not comfortable with the journey involved in attaining it.
After a promotion a mid table finish wont be bad. What is important is that we compete in every game.I don't get the papering over the cracks comments - were we not performing well against Bradford and Shrewsbury, but fine margins cost us both games? The early season draws at home vs Gillingham and Peterborough could easily have been wins, plus away at Rochdale.Of course, we won't get those points back, but I wouldn't think yesterday's win is papering over anything..

To beat Southend is no small achievement, they have just won 3 on the bounce, and us, yet to win at home, this all suggests an away win. The manner in which we won will give the whole club a big lift, and a belief that we can kick on and do well this season, keep believing.

Take the screamer from Whiteman for instance, had that fallen to Tommy Rowe I'm sure he would have taken a touch and drove to the byline to pull it back. When the shot is there we need to take it on more often, you don't score goals if you don't have shots
