Stevenage at home on Saturday and close to a sell-out now, which should be, if nothing more, good revenue for the club, but given how well we're doing this season it might also be a positive move to try and attract some of the fans who have, ahem, "lost their way" over recent seasons, back to the club. Stevenage really don't need any introduction, they've stamped their mark on this League and may still go and do the same in the Championship next season, but we owe ourselves a big win and I feel one's coming this weekend. They'll have half an eye on the cup replay at Spurs and on the back of a surprise defeat to Notts County I think they might be a little uncertain and in front of a 27,000 crowd I'd like to see us take advantage of that, I think we'll win 3-0 to be honest. I'd also like to silence the critics, both in the camp who think we're bottle jobs because we've drawn two in a row, and outside who are more than happy to throw the monkey on Charlton's back when we have the slightest dip in form but point blank refuse to offer us any credit when we're crusing in top spot. I'm tired of being the fucking underdogs in this top four, I want us to show why we're capable of being champions on Saturday and then we can move onto Sunday and, no offense lads, but get this fucking derby out of the way and move on with the rest of our lives. All I keep hearing is about "piggys" (and I have to be honest, I can't figure out who's calling who it, it seems a traded insult between both clubs ) and Chris Waddle's free kick, I've seen it replayed three times already on TV this week. Whatever the outcome, enjoy the game and that but stay safe, I've seen a few statements from the police already so hopefully there won't be too many goings-on but I guess you never know in football these days, after all they thought they were "well-prepared" for West Ham v Milwall in 2009 didn't they?
Kermit scored a beautiful free kick for us the other night (that's right jonson, he might not be able to chip in a 12-yard penalty but this lad can curl one, still travelling, into the top corner from 25 yards, trust me, second time this season! ). He was cracking all Tuesday night, movement on and off the ball excellent, getting on the end of crosses, holding the ball up, two late chances that went very close. He gets better and better every time I see him play and he was free. FREE! I can't believe Dirty Dougie has been nominated for Manager of the Year, or that Palarse's latest overrated teenage "sensation" Wilfried Zaha is in the player nominations, all for beating United's second string in ET at OT in a Carling Cup game. Apart from that they play a horrendous style of football that looks like a mixture between lacrosse and table tennis, they score at a rate of one goal every four games and sing that stupid chant many others in this country nicked from Celtic because they're not smart enough to come up with their own songs (okay, I appreciate that probably wasn't Freedman's fault, but I'll still try and blame him for it.). Mid-to-lower championship fodder once again in their Antiques Roadshow football ground, just wait till we get to have another go at them. We'll see how much they like it, like it, like it, then.

RE: The Championship and worse thread 2007/08 - 
Remember though you are still two points clear of them, have two games in hand on them as well, this result will count for very little come the end of the season if you go up and they don't.
