One of the benefits of being a league club, you get an improved standard of debate :-)
I was'nt having a dig per-se, despite living a handful of miles from the Shay and admitting to an obvious bias at the outset of my original post -- I would suggest that that to guarantee safety, fifty points are required and averaging a point a match is'nt going to get any team to that target.
The bottom line is you are going to need to score some goals and what I saw last night despite creating some good openings, in all honesty you very rarely looked liked putting the ball in the back of the net. Again despite some good approach work there was often not a Stanley player aware or even close to making the final touch, all against a lightweight defence, 'you' will undoubtedly encounter better defences in the division and as such will not be allowed to build-up like you did against then Imps -- I briefly scanned through some other of 'your' match reports and see a common theme emerging.
What I have seen of teams in this league down the years it just struck me that you may well be scrapping for points to ensure you avoid the dreaded drop into oblivion at the end of the season, playing good football in this league does not equal safety. My opinion is, along with a with a clutch of other North West teams you may well be looking nervously over your shoulder come Late April early May.
