I saw Wimbledon break the record for the longest undefeated run in 2004. They were in the eighth tier, we were in the first. :?

Absolute piss-take. Three London games and I'm out of the country for the two that aren't Milwall!

To me those games look just as hard as the Championship! And is it just me but why do the fixtures always give us a hard time at the beginning of the season?? :(

Well, I've noted 10 trip possibilities (subject to life getting in the way), but they're a bit top-loaded - nothing after early February. Maybe if we're playing brilliantly (or even efficiently) I might be tempted...

No, but I laughed at the idea that "A tough first month" includes three teams recently in non-league and another who conceded 80 goals last season.

At the risk of sounding like someone yet to come to terms with the reality of our position, I did LOL when I saw that the big Christmas games are against Shrewsbury & Scunny.

Calendar fail. 12 opportunities, starting with the Wombles and a midweek razz up the M4 to Brizzle. :D

Somehow, Christmas doesn't have the same ring to it when it involves Scunthorpe and Shrewsbury.

In the rare event that we ever end up looking like signing anyone for this season, I thing the question on everyone's lips should be 'Yeah but can he do it on a Tuesday night against Rochdale?'

Well, there'll be two opportunities to find out this season. :)
