    Anybody not enjoying the ride at the moment is an idiot.

    But I understand the doubt that not everyone has shaken yet. It's the "this is too good to be true" factor. Like an erotic dream you expect someone to wake you up from just when things are getting good :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    We are good enough to go up.
    We are in a position to go up based on our results and games in hand.
    I'm not taking it for granted until it's guaranteed.
    The cup win was fantastic and hopefully a catalyst to promotion, but a drop in the ocean if we don't make it.

    Even if by some ****ing way we miss out on automatic promotion, I'm positive that we're in good enough hands now that we can drive forward next season. I'm not worried about the future, and that's the big difference for me now. We have a bloody plan and vision.

    Me neither mate, but I'm not denying myself the joy of the fight until the moment the others throw the towel in ....

    .... otherwise the only fun is when it's all over and you know the outcome.

    Sod that ....

    I think we will do it.
    I fooking hope we will.
    I never expected this turn around.
    We're on the up, and that matters a lot

    The turnaround has been amazing.
    I don't expect promotion but the hope is too much to bear now.
    We'll do it next time of asking :D

    The 3 points we pick up tomorrow will be more important than any others across the season. Vital we head to Peterborough on Monday full of confidence.

    Went out panic buying today and found some interesting stuff including some Corsican chestnut beer, Pietra, that we used to drink over there....

    .... but I spotted this stuff that I'd never seen before.

    Nice one <party>

    SANGUINE: adjective

    Optimistic or positive, especially in an apparently bad or difficult situation.

    I've never heard the word Sanguine, and that's the correct definition ( I'm not doubting you btw), im definately feeling Sanguine tonight.
    I couldnt be more Sanguine, if truth be told.

    Worried about this. Though i worry about every game. Waiting for us to capitulate like we always seem too. Oxford will go for it, we may catch them on the break a few times. 2-2.
