The higher teams confidence may even be a killer for them, we saw Blackburn trying to attack with numbers against us and time and time again hit them with well worked counter-attacks. All I'm saying is, don't be surprised if it's a lower end team that finally holds us to a draw. I think we'll beat Peterborough with the support of the fans in a near packed house, but after that things will keep getting harder!

Its those sort of tactics that will see us eventually get beat at home. We will batter
the opposition goal with no reward and get hit on the break. Shit happens. But its
how we bounce back. This is the main difference with Mackay in charge. After our
two defeats to Bolton and the embarrassing Charlton result.... Five wins and a draw.
With three of those being Away games.
I truly think we ARE the best in the division. There are teams with arguably 'better'
squads. But nobody has the grit, determination and team spirit to match our lads.
...thats why we're top, and thats why I think we'll stay there
