A couple of weeks ago we were 2nd from Bottom, were now 6th, a good sign :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Also beating first place Leicester should really boost Our Confidence. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Hull away will be tough. But City can beat anyone on their day if they are managed correctly :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

get your huskey ready for hull annis, we gonna need him :D :lol:

Re: " CURRENT FORM "

whats more refreshing is we've only got to play 2 teams in the top 10 of the form table, which is more accurate than league table when predicting results. Whereas notts and the rest are playing each other over the next few weeks, if we can kick on and get a few wins on the bounce i really think we can do it :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

John, I believe its in our hands or shall I say Dave Jones(or My Huskeys :lol: ), If he manages them correctly they are the best team in this division and I have always maintained that, we just need Jones to be as good :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I felt Jones got it right last night but we were helped by the times we scored. I was worried after the first 15 mins but after that I felt we were the much better team. It's not the big teams we're struggling against, which I guess is good, but we have the 'lesser' teams now so we need to consider each game as a must win and show up every week.

I was really pleased with not only how composed we played last night but how ordinary we made a very good Leicester side look. We are quick to criticise Jones and the players so I'll be quick in praising them for last night's performance. Could have been better, granted, but we'll always demand more.

We've been playing the more difficult teams too, TOBW on ccmb has done a table on it

http://www.ccmb.co,uk/fudforum/index.ph ... 03eceed433

Hopefully we'll do even better in what should be an easier run but knowing city it won't be that easy

Anyway looking forward to going to the Hull and Palace games now :ayatollah:

And we still have to play all of the bottom four :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

We have played a lot of inform teams in recent weeks and done very well.
When we played Leeds they hadnt lost since we last played them and won 4-0
I think Watford had won something like there last 8 games when we beat them.
We beat the Jacks away
We just beat Leicester who were the form team in the league
Just in an away point at Norwich as well

TBH I dont think the players and management got the credit they deserved for those results.

Instead a totally over the top reaction to drawing with Burnley (who I think were also hitting form) and for not battering Scunthope (ask forest not as easy as it sounds).

Losing to forest was a set back but we reacted in the right way so lets hope we can now continue the good run we are on :ayatollah:

Our form is a lot better since the New Year, and especially when Rambo has been involved. We need to push on!
I can't believe we have lost that many games compared to the surrounding clubs, especially away.

But! We are still there and fighting on - we need to get behind them 100%. We can help them push on.
