This time last year the odds on us winning the league were 5/2. Bookies offering triple that return this year. Obviously seeing it the same as many of us, a tougher league with a weaker squad. Sorry to disappoint Deerey, keep your head in that sand kidda!

Yet they are not seeing us as certain mid-table fodder like the ‘realists’.

not sure how its a tougher league – small clubs coming up and teams coming down on a downward spiral. Weaker squad lets see them play first. I would suggest better mangers and Asst. Better feel at the club. i remain optimistic :-)

Great start to the season for Scunny and a few others… long may the 3 points keep coming however it plays out.
Reading the prediction thread on the SUFC Fans FB page and as ever most predicting an Iron win ..some emphatic others closer, i went for a draw (again).
Im not sure but i do get the impression SOME fans are either
1. swayed by the claret n blue glasses
2. generally over optimistic when predicting every game
3 assume rightly or wrongly we are better than we are
4 forget there are at least REALISTICALLY half the teams in this nasty league who could win the title ala Tamworth of which we are one.. im guessing the likes of Rushall Petboro sports etc are at best mid table along with others.
5 are on meds
6. forgot to take their meds
7 taking too much emphasis and optimism from the first 3 rather hot n cold performances
8. blindly loyal
9 absolutely correct in their judgement
10 hoping to get lucky as at NM (soft pen and hanging on)Hoping to see Charlton Saturday and twill be very interesting to see how the team line up next 2 fixtures.
Lets revisit the odds after 10 games im guessing there will be 5 or 6 clubs within a the 7/1 , 4/1 , 7/2 range.

Swayed perhaps by statistically our best start in my lifetime and I’m old.
First 3 wins from 3 since the 1940’s and the first 3 clean sheets from 3 since early 50’s. Bound to feck it up Saturday then!

My impression 3 games in
1. We are fitter than last season
2. We are better organised
3. We look dangerous from long throws into the box
4. The manager appears to have a plan B and C
5. The manager is prepared to use all 5 subs in pursuit of 4This gives me reason for optimism for a top 4 finish!

Revised odds: realised what a sad shallow pitiful sham of an existence my life is and stepped in my own dog’s excrement this morning – mid table at best playing the most unattractive football ever witnessed in any league, ever.
