Well the first 8 game block is done and dusted.

Would like to hear your opinions on how the season to date has gone for your team.

Will the teams who have done well so far continue their form or will a dark horse emerge from the pack?

A small gap has emerged at the bottom but for supporters of those teams do you still have optimism that the tide will turn?

The upper to middle end is looking rather congested now, so one good result propels you up whereas one bad result might drop you back down the table.

It’s a very competitive league that’s for sure and would appreciate your comments.

“I came to forget”.
“What did you want to forget?” asked the Commander.

This is a great league. My team started well but like every team goes though at some  point injuries have come to the fore, so the break has come at the right time. I would like us to finish top four. Rams have set the pace, with Richmond and Rotherham close on their heels. Surprised to see DMP at the bottom, who usually are competitive and strong at home. Who knows what the next 8 games will  have in store. Let's hope they will be injury free so all teams can field their strongest team.
On a personal note I hope my predictions will improve so I'm not in the relegation mire.😁

I’m happy at 5-3 which could have been 6-2 but for an incorrect call from an AR (which we have had an apology 🤬). Still stuff to work on but we have been competitive in most games except the second half in Birmingham when we seemed to switch off.

Overall, pretty happy. After the first 4 games I feared the worst, especially the way Blackheath and Plymouth took us apart at home. However, the last 4 games have produced 12 points from 2 tough northern trips in Roth and Sedgley and 2 competitive losses to the top 2.

I think the new/old coach knows what he's doing and the players and buying in. Have been pretty injury ravaged and the fixtures have been tough so hoping the improvement continues as we finish the first half of the season.

Rotherham have been the stand out. To come up and win so many games is superb. Even better the one game they didn't turn up was Stortford!

Dings have been the biggest disappointment. Sold their soul to Bristol. Can't even find someone to update the matchday scores. They've added nothing to the league. 

Only other disappointment is how we have 2 unbeaten teams whilst the bottom 3 only have 2 wins between them. Usually anyone can beat anyone but there appears to be a bit of a gap opening up between the top and bottom.
