So, should we ask the league if we can cut our games down to 85 minutes? We do seem to be having a problem of late with the last five minutes and the injury time! On the road as always of course, so I speak second hand, but Penrith, Spenny and Synners, all last minute goals that cost us, or at least made it look worse in Synners case. No doubt it is just a blip, which we can test in the flurry of home games these next few days, although looking over the fence the chances of playing three in five days looks a bit remote to me.
Those Sunday lads will play in any conditions though won't they? Is this a good thing? Maybe not, maybe not. Anyway on we go, 12 league games still to play, and do I detect a little bit of a twitch as we slide closer to the bottom? We certainly need a few points on the board, although by all accounts, and leaving aside this closing minutes problem, the performances of late have been better than the results. A lot of close defeats, let’s make it a few close wins eh? Looks like notching the goals is the problem, will there be one last plunge into the transfer market before the window slams shut? Given the number signed this year it will be unlikely if we were quiet in the last ten days for signing. Who might be available? Couple of canny lads up the colliery by all accounts....
