Sounds good. It's always interesting to see a longer perspective on the development of such a young squad! I think we'll all keep following as long as we're playing!

Much as I like doing the match by match stuff, there is the risk of not getting very far, so it's just easier to try and find a balance between the two.
 
Solid suggestion Godfish. Would like to see the development of the players which is better doable this way.
 
Having assessed January, it'll come in two parts - lot of ground to cover!

Well then. A real humdinger of a game puts us through, but on another day, Bradford would have won that comfortably. We were just too clinical this time.

Nice and simple. No cup hangover for us, as we play Tamworth off the park. Both centre backs score in a delightful display of our talents from set pieces.

Given we went 2-0 down, I can live with that. A great turnaround by the lads, and we continue our march towards silverware.

Cant believe ive pulled my hamstring again :(

It's bad timing, especially with Arnie and Manbearpig unavailable, and Burheim is only just returned. I would suspect at this point that you are a touch injury prone.
 
More gametime for Burheim it is! Gotta send you off to the US or something, to fix that hamstring!
 
Any news on when Post returns to full fitness? :O Surely that month has almost passed, right? :).

Other than that. Great win over Bradford! Shows we should be competing on a much higher level already :).

Post is back within the next week iirc. Should be fully fit and ready within two.
