Verdict So Far?

[Captain Haddock]

About a third of the season gone and The Shrimps are lookin' upwards after a good away win today, but how do you fellas see it so far? Will you finish in bottom half / top half / play-offs this season?

None of those, mate..... automatic without a doubt!

[Captain Haddock]

Love it!

[heysham_mfc]

seriously mid table finish

[George Dawes]

the further we get away from danger, the more fearless we will become and get better results


just like last season patterned out, i think will probably finish a couple of places outside the play-offs

[Blackpool Shrimp]

Anywhere in top half of table would be ok - play offs would be a bonus

Now then skipper, how's it going? You going to take in a game of ours again soon?

Everyone knows we've drawn too many and, while we weren't getting any wins, that was seen as a big failing.

But they were all points. Points that helped keep our heads above the relegation water and, now that we've picked up a couple of three-pointers, those draws may (as Sammy said they might) be seen in a different light.

Draws away at places like Rotherham and Daggers are not bad.

We have a couple of 'winnable' games coming up (Cheltenham at home and Darlo away) that, if we can get six points, could see us move about six or seven places up the league if you look at how tight it is.


My consolation (and why I haven't panicked) throughout the long run without a win has been that we have been playing well.

The players have kept up their workrate, the system we've played has been working, we've created enough chances and scored enough goals.

It's been good to see them get the reward for their efforts in the last few games and for the whole club to get a bit of breathing space which, I hope, will now see us really show what we can do and play with more and more confidence.
