What the fans need to hear. Top half this season would be a big achievement but we'll see the fruits long term.

I think we will come good eventually, will take time. Win a few in a row then lose a couple, that sort of team.

Would agree with this.

Very streaky and the home v away record will be miles apart.

We'll get there though.

Agree. A "pundit" making sensible and positive comments about the club :shock:

I think he's overstating how big an acheivement finishing top half will be. But otherwise he's on the money.

And it's reflected in the support. It's been positive. Attendances have been decent. 1000 at both Exeter and Cambridge. Both games the fans stayed and clapped the players off the pitch after narrow defeats.

Yep agreed.

My minimum expectation is to survive, anything else is a bonus.

Based on our start, I don’t think he is but no idea how effective we’ll be with Smith up top. It could all be very different.

It's not even the same team that lost the first two matches! I am being selective for the benefit of my point, but this team has played 6, won 3, drawn 1 and lost 2 (both to late goals). Two of those games were against Championship opposition.

They're doing alright.

He should get Robbie Savage on his Friday night show for a chat.

I'm hoping Robbie might find an opportunity to articulate his argument in person to TD - ideally when he hasn't got Ady and Mick around to make him feel brave.
