Being on another dismal run of 2 pts from a possible 15 what do we expect our return to be from the next 24.

In y opinion we are at the business end of the campaign now and teams are starting to show why they have the potential to be in the play offs if not the automatic promotion places come the end of the season.

I am therefore afraid to say I can't see us getting much from Leicester, Birmingham, Blackpool and Brighton as for Watford and Palace I would expect to see a return of 6 pts from these fixtures.

As for Doncaster away it's anybody's guess maybe a point is the best we can hope for and lastly Forest it's a derby match they are fighting for there lives form goes out of the window if you can call it form both teams have non of late

So I'm going for 8 from 24 and scoring a total of 5 goals

Who'd have thought at the start of the season that we'd be gagging to get top scorer Theo Robinson back in the side?

We basically have an okay first 11, who have developed some kind of understanding; but when a couple of them are missing we huff and puff with no end product.

It go either way - if we click again we could go on our third good run of this rollercoaster season; if we don't, we will limp towards safety one scrappy point at a time.

As an afterthought, our problem is very simple: we just don't have enough good players (or the money to buy any, apparently). I only count 9 from our squad of 20-odd who wouldn't look totally out of place in a promotion-chasing squad. That's about 7 short by my reckoning.

And in this tight division it's also dangerously close to having a squad that's looking over its shoulder at the relegation fight.

Yes, Hem - very few (perhaps 6) of our current squad would be considered a good addition to any of the challenging Championship squads. Fielding, Brayford, Shackell, Barker, Bryson, Ward.

All the rest are disposable, ten a penny Championship players - if that. Maybe that's a bit harsh on Green & Theo, even Roberts (a consistent if limited player)but changes need to be made to this inconsistent squad.

If it's all so glaringly obvious to us, why don't the custodians of the club and the football professionals that manage the team appreciate this and do something about it?

It's not as if it's a new problem, is it?

Answer: lack of money & of "soccer franchise expertise."

"Who'd have thought at the start of the season that we'd be gagging to get top scorer Theo Robinson back in the side? "

Who wants this?

His contribution on Thursday illustrates why he is not a Championship footballer. No control of the ball and very poor decision-making, whose only virtue is energy/pace.

That he might be missed is an example of how far our sights and expectations have declined under our non-league manager
