We are on the verge of something special here.

 

I just know it.

 

Let's not get carried away I hear you say? Balls to that...this is the perfect time to get carried away.

 

Bolton are back and going places.

 

Play-offs anybody??

Next seven games are vital, they are the games to make up nine points to catch the top six, once in there it's full steam ahead

We just need to stay near the pack by end of year. If we can close that 9 points down to 4/5 things will be looking good

I've just done the dance in my kitchen! Haha brilliant.

 

One thing to remember in all this...if Our previous buffoon of a manager can get that shower of overpaid relegation fodder from the lower reaches to within a point of the play offs then just imagine what could be on the horizon for us with this team in charge.

 

This league is tough but very mediocre. Teams put little runs together a fly up and down the league. Wolves were top and flying for a short while,if Ipswich are worthy of second then I'm a Dutchman and Blackburn are nothing special.

 

If we stay consistent it's happening.

Odds are dropping, I put a wager on after the Wigan win, got 29/1 http://bettingzone.oddschecker.com/football/english/championship/promotion

When he took over and we were rock bottom I got 20/1 for top half finish 28/1 for top six finish and 66/1 for promotion. Tenner on each

It is a massive transfer window, if NL can sign players as well as he can organise and motivate them it could be brilliant.

 

Over last 10 games we have best defence in the league.

 

Given our attacking options last night was superb, 5 points in first 11, 21 in next 11 under Lennon.

 

I can not stop thinking where we could be if we had got Lennon instead of DF

 

The feel good factor is returning, the FFP results were surprisingly good, the team is picking up, if we can get a big crowd Boxing Day and a result we could 4000 plus

 

Strange at the moment is that we probably want teams below us to beat teams above us, might mean we drop a few places today but keeps the gap as narrow as possible to the play offs.

And you were even a miserable bastard in Europe

. But that was down to the miserable bastards I was with

I can not stop thinking where we could be if we had got Lennon instead of DF .

Haha, there's always so many "if onlys"

 

Then again Lennon was managing Celtic to the title at the time but I heard something last week about who would have got the job if DF had not.

 

A mate was in a box last week & leaving the Macron via the main entrance after the game at the same time as Mick McCarthy. One of those blokes in blue club blazers said "I thought you were joining us Mick?" to which he replied "So did I".

 

So if it hadn't been DF it would have been big Mick and we would probably be looking a lot like Ipswich now, still I am very happy where we are now :-)

Wow. Without signing anyone, NL has made us hard to beat. A couple of signatures and he is in danger of climbing us up this league sharpish????

I love this positivity that's around at the moment. Beat Blackburn and we'll beat Udders.

 

Happy Christmas everyone

The best thing is that you know with Lennon it is more than a new manager lifting the dressing room and the team going on a run.

 

The way he re-arranged the formation and the players dug in against Ipswich spoke volumes.

Chuck in a cracking cup run and this may well have a whiff of Rioch about it

 

Been thinking this too.

Definite feelgood factor around the place and Lenny seems to be galvanising the whole club like Bruce did.

Seriously impressed with the improvement in defence, long may it continue.

Not getting carried away but still feeling a bit giddy.

 

Oh aye, and smash them bastards next week.

Ask again at the end of January, it'll depend on what we do in the transfer window and how we do without chungy in Jan. Although the signs are very good.

When he took over and we were rock bottom I got 20/1 for top half finish 28/1 for top six finish and 66/1 for promotion. Tenner on each

 

I put mine on the day before Brentford at home. 33/1. Only a fiver though. Despite appearances to the contrary you must be even more confident than me.

Even if we don't quite have enough this season (and I wouldn't rule it out), with this guy in charge I feel a whole lot better about the future of our club. NLSWA.

Starting to worry,booked 2 weeks in Mexico in May,land back play off final day at 9 in morn.  

Depends, we need goals and if we play like we did v Ipswich with no shots for their goalkeeper to make then we have no chance, draws won't be enough, however if we have them kind of games in-between performance like vs Millwall, then we certainly will be up there, if Lennon was here earlier, we'd be thinking about challenging Derby and Boro etc for the title, no doubt.

Stag do in Blackpool all weekend to coincide with the rugby. Told my mate I'll see him on the Sunday if we get to Wembley.

Mr Lennon Believes

 

“What I’m hoping for is to be in a good position in the league by the turn of the year and give us something to aim at because the play-offs are in mind.”

And now he's on Football Focus

On FF he just said he sees DMBs as contenders but not champions  

Then again Lennon was managing Celtic to the title at the time but I heard something last week about who would have got the job if DF had not.

 

He wasn't managing them for the first ten games of this season when Freedman was amassing 5 whole points. Just hope that persevering with him for so long doesn't cost us in the end.

Can anbody do a table from lennons 11 games in charge? Im shit like that.

 

The old cliche judge the table after 10 games etc etc. id say wed be clear top?

 

So hes wiped out that horrific start and had us nicely within range. Got another half a season at 2ppg.

 

Happy Christmas its gonna be a good new year

Woah woah woah

 

What happened to FFP, our diminishing wage bill, our dreadful squad and a Manager needing about 2 years to create his own squad

 

What's that? All we needed was a proper Manager? ????
