Probably be putting out the same XI, no arguments with that if they bring home the points and the rock keeps rolling!

Seriously considered the 5 hour round trip to this one, but after a 70 hour week the missus has put her foot down. :d

I would take a draw, 3 points would almost def see us out the bottom 2.
 
Really tough game.
As long as the players give 100% I will be happy.
Can See our central midfield being pulled apart today, surely Beattie can see the problems we have in the centre of the park?
I would go 1 up top today and encourage 2 of the 3 centre mids to get up in support and run beyond the striker.
 
WE ARE BACK!

Although from the sounds of things scunthorpe were very poor..... but so were portsmouth, cheltenham (worse team to beat us in a long time), burton.... we were just even worse on the day

This league is full of teams with nothing to choose between them..... Maybe, just maybe the 'belief factor' that JB was banging on about when everyone was calling for new personnel/new tactics etc is the key ingredient in the league this year.

He might actually be good at this job. What do you think Davo?
 
Good result today from the boys, well done all, now lets keep the momentum up & the seasons start will just be a hazy memory. :)
 
delighted to be a prediction league muppet today ! With 5 out of the 7 remaining this year to be played at home, should we be getting excited ? Pleased for Beatts - admire his attitude & committment + he seems to be a really nice bloke to be around. Must give the lads confidence and played a massive part in turning things around.
 
best of it is we play a team below us next week. Well done to BT and the team. Maybe we now have the front 2 that the team has been crying out for.
 
Great result. Sounded like we were the better side and deserving of the win. The belief that Beattie has talked about is really coming to the surface now!!:D

Also great to see Bowerman notch on his first full start. From the commentary on the fishy it seemed he had a stormer today. Hoping for continued performances in a similar vein and Davo can get his recipe for humble pie out again.:D

No time to rest on laurels, an important run of fixtures coming up which with more positive results (and more importantly wins) could see us climb further up the table and away from danger, especially when two of the next three are against the bottom two.

Hope there's some clarification about the embargo situation, i.e. has it be lifted / or when will it be lifted. Interesting to wonder who Beattie may have lined up to come in on loan??:confused:
 
Well done to the team and JB for turning this into a season that might be worth remembering for the right reasons and the performance today which won many friends on this side of the country

Think Stanley should offer GB an extended contract. He and Odejayi are the dream ticket

Stanley also need to see what they can do about securing Odejayi in Jan

WE WERE NOT AWAY

Scunthorpe were only as good as Stanley allowed them to be.
Believe me a lot more to come!!!

At last DAV you are at least right on one point the lads did give 100% or possibly more?Still don't like Beattie ?

Don't expect a honest answer......his mate (s) probably told him differently and he's far too busy in the kitchen preparing to make another great humble pie.....

After all......Beattie isn't the man to lead us up the table and Bowerman is a duck egg....Just like Leam Richardson was never going to get us out of the mire last season.:rolleyes:

I wonder what his next pearl of "wisdom" will be......:confused::confused::confused:

Maybe.....topically....Davo's going to set the world straight and let us all know who really killed J.F.K. ???? His mate probably told him !!!;)
 
Totally great win today, looks like Beattie might know a thing or two, some people are able to learn from their experiences and can see further than the end of their nose! and some are just to blind to to appreciate it! Well done James.
