So was Thorne's equaliser a turning point for us?

No, I don't think so either, I don't like this false hope we are being given because ourselves and Shrewsbury are unable to win, I'd rather be able to write the whole thing off now.

The strange thing is that we only have a couple of points more than we did this time last season, however the season was already over at this stage. It's also worth notiing that without the points deductions to other clubs we would be 10th which is where we finished last season and we have a much better squad than we had last season so our current situation is a huge disappointment.

If we didnt have the point deduction we would be SECOND in the league

We are poor, cant see us going up. Holt will probably leave in the summer too.

I think between us (in 7th and 8th) we have 2 wins in our last 18 games, top form from the two pre-season promotion favourites eh? Without a major turnaround Chesterfield will overhaul us both, I'd say their run-in is more favourable than either of ours.

Indeed, the poor quality of the league makes the situation even more frustrating.

I did the BBC predictor thing earlier and had us ending up below Rotherham and Darlington, even with their points deductions.

I'm annoyed we couldn't hold out at Bradford but satisfied we're still top. Our injury list is mounting though, Charlie McDonald won't play again this season. Its making me very nervous!

Over 9000 season tickets sold for next season apparently, given recent form I'm amazed.

Mental the lot of 'em

You're not kidding! Brentford are the current leaders and they looked awful!
They seemed happy with a point and were time-wasting before they even scored. I particularly enjoyed the 50 yard throw-in tactic! I haven't seen a team use it so often since Stockport had Kevin Francis up front and a bloke who could launch it 70 yards! It's the entertainment business boys.
The gulf between League 1 and 2 is growing and I can't see anyone from our league finishing in the top half of League 1 next season. Wycombe were about the best but they've imploded. Awful standard of football and refereeing to match. Roll on May!

Another game, another f@#k up.

I really hope Chesterfield win tomorrow, I'm sick of poor result after poor result but still having a genuine shout at a play-off spot.

If they do that puts us 4 behind them with 4 left, which we wouldn't overhaul, I just want this season over ASAP, it has been a massive failure.

I wonder which player will be rolled out for the weekly 'We won't let the fans down again' interview this time. What a set of jokers.
