interesting to see Jones and Eckersley of this parish not so long ago now on the other side. When I say interesting of course I mean farcical. No way to run a professional league with players swapping sides week on week. What next, swop players at half time to even the sides up!

You could be on to something there BT, get on the blower to IMG 1st thing Monday.

Fantastic result.....now, if we can keep this up, maybe they'll invite some new fans to cherry red when we return on 6 weeks time.
A winning side helps with marketing.....

Five points above the drop zone (and nine above bottom) as you approach halfway. Much better than last year. Well done.

Again they hit some form just when we have 0 home games for 2 months (I don't count ebbsfleet here). So no way to transform this form into new fans.......

Just have to keep the winning run going..........

Good point. I’m delighted we now have a competitive squad but the business model of undercooked at the start of the season and wait until the French Elite ends in May coupled with lengthy gaps in home games across early summer makes it really difficult to see a path to increased attendances and momentum building.

Great result at a tough place to visit. Didn't get to listen to the game, but sounded as though we were the stronger team and really caused some problems with our physicality, which is promising to hear.

Good to see Macani with a brace after a few difficult outings too.

Was always going to be a difficult month, but a positive start and hopefully we can take 2 points away from Bradford on Sunday.
