3 Wins on the bounce

Well after so many seasons of inconsistency we finally can put a run together and against 3 decent teams in Burnley, Blackpool and Boro. A draw against Huddersfield and I believe the team will start to believe they can do this......
I am impressed how Pearson has handle the pressure this last fortnight not just in results but also the criticism regarding are so called star players being allowed to leave are club.
Long may it continue.

Totally agree, a point at huddersfield wouldn't be too shabby and would leave us top six. (i could even see us winning at huddersfiekd tbh)

Brighton at home is going to be a tasty affair come the end of the month!

"Patience pays off"
-----------------------------------
Amazing how we're saying that keeping a manager for 8 games is being patient, but I agree with the sentiment.

If we lose the next two games the prophets of doom will be out in force again. Pearson should be given at least this season just as Sven should have been given the whole of last season.

Last time we kept a manager for two seasons we got promoted from the 1st division and finished up in the Championship play offs.

Today..after 50 mins he was a dead man walking. 40 mins later he was a God, seems reasonable to me.

I believe this may also be highest position we have been in since Pearson's last stint at the club.

We are just shy of the 2 pts per game suggested for promotion and are 1 point off first. I wanted to leave it until 10 games before reflecting on our progress, but if we are in the same position, in relation to these stats, come next weekend I will be very, very happy.

I've said that he should be judged on our position come come next May and I'll stand by that aslong as we're not in a relegation dogfight, which looks unlikely

How was he a dead man walking! Anyone that thinks like that is foolish! We had 40 mins to play and were playing better! Never had a doubt knew we would win!

Got to believe in Pearson! He knows what he is doing has putting together a hungry ambitious squad who want to play for him and the club! A win at huddersfield would be excellent and I'm certainly hopeful we will!

Dead man walking?! Only in a idiots eyes! I.e stringer!

I'd be happy with a point Tuesday and a win sat! Would be a good return after ten games IMO

19 points after 10 games would be superb, and I'd be very happy with 18 or even 17.
