The football !!!!

Just a quick topic to mention that despite everything that is going on off the pitch we are now 6 points clear of the non-play-off places with a game in hand. I might be wrong but that is more secure than we were at this time last year isn't it 
Can't say last night was a great game but, more importantly now, it was a great win
How many times over the last couple of seasons have we lost a game like that ? Peterborough had a lot of the ball but only really created 2 chances all game and we scored 2, hit the post twice and came close on at least 3 other occassions.
Lacklustre it may have been. But with players carrying injuries/illness they carried on from where they left off prior to the Newcastle game. Grinding out results and showing a bit of backbone.
Aside from the Malaysians, maybe promotion is our biggest hope of getting out of this mess.
The biggest concern for me is the home crowd. Last there were a vocal few who were quick to jump on any mistake but were notably silent in supporting the team. One guy in E24 by me continually tells everyone that Whitts is crap despite him being the top scoring midfield player in all 4 divisions
Next week he may well get what's coming to him
Surely we should be taking a leaf out of Palace and Pompeys book and sticking together in an "us against the world" way, just like the players appear to be doing. I really hope Pompey stay up and Palace reach the play-offs (never thought I'd say that about a Warnock team !!) but I hope even more that we can get back to supporting DJ and the team because they are delivering despite PR not because of him
