Just incredible. This achievement is as close to impossible as football is capable of producing.Just revel in it. You'll never see the like again.

You'll never see the like again.Just look back over some of your posts six weeks or so ago, looking at our chances statistically.What we’ve done is nothing short of astonishing.And I’m not having a go at you BST, not at all.

The run of 10 wins, starting from where we were is something that you'd see once every couple of hundred years.The fact that we did it doesn't in anyway invalidate that judgement.
Yet we always seem to do the seemingly impossible and when we least expect it to happen.The wake up call from that 2nd half could be just what we need going into these 3cup finalsRTID

Why do assessments based on probability so rile some people?Of all the things in the world to get upset about.I guess it's because there are three kinds of people.Them that understand statistics and them that don't.
DBR.I disagree. I've been perfectly capable of simultaneously being perfectly aware of how vanishingly unlikely it was for us to do this, while suspending disbelief every Saturday/Tuesday.My apologies if other people can't do that and have got upset at someone pointing out the first of those.
Right it's about time we gave credit for this run where it's due. And that's to me.At the end of the Sutton match the players and staff were clearly chuffed to have snatched a point. In the clarity that one gets from sinking a steady dozen pints pre-match I told them in no uncertain terms that they needed to do much better and if they accepted that performance it was no wonder they were heading for a relegation battle.They clear thought "that bloke knows what he's on about, let's pull our fingers out." The rest is history.

This statement is going to blow peoples minds BST. MK are favourites because they have been better than us not only all season BUT also in the last 12 games. BUT WE WON TEN IN A ROW THEY CRY…
Realistically I think we will end up with 61-62 points Not thinking realistically I’m hoping we can get 67-68
