Even three more wins on the bounce only takes it to 33.3%, and following a 4 game win streak. Hardly a wild swing or an impressive figure.

An increase of 9% isn't a noteable swing? :shock:

Northampton were abysmal though, they gave up in that second half. We need to get two wins on the bounce now.


Surely no coincidence that once he went to a flat back four, took poor again Walker off and moved CJ further forward???


Haha! This explains a lot. Are you sure you watch the games Woody?

All down to perceptions I guess, but I'd say a 9% swing of success in 3 games is wilder than a David Attenborough program! ;)

Certainly do for far too many years, I do watch from pitch level though and it looked like a back four and that was the general consensus in the Sandy afterwards, if it wasnt then I take it back, it's not hard to admit you are wrong, you should try it sometimes ;)

So those of us that are not in the happy clapper brigade aren't real fans ? Just because some are't getting carried away by one decent win doesn't mean they are negative, more realistic. As I have said in a previous post I really hope Flipflop proves us doubters wrong. If some wanted us to lose games just to be rid of Flipflop then that would be negative and I for one don't agree with that.

Wow, you've made more hops/skips & jumps in your assumptions to put Jonathan Edwards to shame :P

Where did I accuse anyone of not being a fan? Clearly something to I hide there I reckon!! :lol:

Some fans seem to feast on defeat, not necessarily for enjoyment or to wallow in misery. They selectively filter out aspects to suit their agenda rather than the whole picture, rarely looking as to 'why' and concentrating on the 'what', as its easier to feed their propaganda. Often posts lack balance, refuse to consider one supposition opposed to another, and can hijack unrelated threads to steer back to their subject.


Stagsnet is littered with these posts over its history. As I'm told so many times : the facts don't lie! ;)

That's their opinion though and up to them as a 'realist' :D

Our win % in the league this season is 33% already with 66% in other competitions or 42% in all competitions.
3 more wins in the league will take it to 50% (53% all comps)
Lies,damn lies and statistics. You can use them which ever way you want.

It's a FACT that DF has won 100% of the games he gained 3 points from. ;) :lol:

When it happens I'll give you a shout ;)

Until then it was indeed the same formation in terms of wing backs, with Atkinson slotting in nicely in a position you have previously said he could not play and CJ exploited the space in behind as Northampton attempted (awfully) to get back into the game.

When Atkinson came on we did change formation. We went 1 up top with Khan and Hamilton in behind. The same formation we played against Exeter.

We certainly didn't go 4 at the back.
