What ever Mark Robinson has put in place has really turned the team around.

I guess, but he has been in charge for what, nearly 20 games? And the last three results have come out of nowhere, we were struggling to score before that!

But it takes time to make changes. I think the main thing is the way he's been analysing previous games and getting players to understand what they need to do.

I understand that, of course, it just feels sudden. I hadn't noticed too much in the way of gradual improvements to be honest, and then bang, suddenly we're averaging 4 goals a game. I'm not complaining! :toot:

We've definitely got better after he took over. We looked strengthened at the back but we weren't really getting chances.

4 games to play and 6 points adrift with only 4 wins for the season. Looks very doubtful! :slol:

Ollie Palmer was in the year below me at school and I spotted he was playing/scoring for Wimbledon the other day!

Swindol are currently off the bottom spot, Gas 1 down, not looking great for them.

Results not going our way so far, feel like we need the win to keep our momentum and a gap to the relegation places.

Oxford look pretty strong although it's fairly end to end.

As it stands they are down, mathematically they'd have a chance but they are never going to get to level points with Wigan and overturn the goal difference. :toot:

Yes, very disappointing. :capnscotty:

Everyone in the bottom 6 winning except Bristol, damn it! I mean at least we're winning too but come on.

Got to beat Ipswich again on Saturday. It's crazy how well most of the bottom teams are doing.

Looks like the play-offs might have gone now for Pompey. :(
