I think that attendance figure is wrong for the record, definitely said 11500 or so on the screen anyway

That would make more sense, approx 10,500 home fans and 1,000 up from Kent.

I really don't know how to judge us at the moment.

At half-time I said it was the typical Cheltenham peformance for this season - no shortage of effort but lacking massively in the quality department.

Defensively we're quite sound - whilst Chesterfield dominated the game, they had very few shots on goal - save for pot shots from outside the box (and Dobra's absolute sitter of course). The biggest issue is in creativity - we're dependant upon mistakes by the other team. Like yesterday when the keeper decided to help us out by coming a million miles off his line.

Injuries in our wing-back/full-back areas are starting to become an issue now though. Haynes is out for 3-4 months, and AJB did his hamstring in scoring our equaliser.

Hopefully it's not too bad, but we're slowly working things out. Lower mid-table looks likely.

How is Sam Stubbs doing for you?

Barrow have got some really decent players. The test will come through the winter, when fixtures and injuries pile up. Do they have enough depth to maintain it? I'm hoping we've finally addressed our depth. It made a big difference for us today, as Accrington were knackered and we brought some decent players off the bench. Another 5 minutes and we win that.

We're dealing with a few injuries already, those that have come in to replace the normal starters are doing a decent job so far.

It's early day's but I see no reason as to why Wimbledon can't finish in the top 7 and i expect us to do so . Obviously the caveat to that is not picking up too many injuries. The obvious candidate's to be up there as ever are the bigger budget team's with better squad depth. This league is just a long bloody grind.

Can't call this league at all this season. Which will surprise many as it has been said I do give off the impression that I know everything.

Will be loads of twists and turns over 9 months. Will be interesting to see how it pans out.

You will definitely be hard to beat on the evidence of yesterday. Not much finesse, but just the type of players to get you out of this league.

As you say though injuries to key men can have a bearing. After losing 2 players to injury yesterday, we now have 8 out injured.

Did you get around to confirming the bookmaker and odds for your Dave Artell sacked next bet?

I might have slipped past me Stocky but I can't see a response to the questions.

478 BetX. A cracking little made up Chinese betting company. Think it was about 10 Yuan mate which is about £1 pound sterling.

It has unfortunately cost me a lot more as my bank account has been cleaned out this morning.
