If Only...
...we beat Stockport, Drew at Bury and Drew and Northampton - we would be 3rd.

You're right, we probably did. But we didn't dominate, scored late on and could easily have drawn (which, pre-match, many would have taken). My point is that we've converted a couple of those borderline matches into wins which goes some way to rebalancing the disappointing performances at home earlier in the season.

Had we not lost five games on the bounce, I doubt we'd be in as good a position as we are today, following 7 wins from 9. That bad run, leaving us near the bottom, was the catalyst to change leading ultimately to the introduction of Maclean and Mclaren.
Had we picked up a few more draws along the way and maintained a mid table position, we'd probably still be there, as opposed to pushing for the play offs, playing very good football.
There are no "if onlys". All results to date, good and bad, have played their part in getting us in to a really good position with a team now capable of being in the mix for promotion. Happy days.

If only....York were able to hit a cow's ar$e with a banjo on 16 May last year.......we might be getting ready to travel to some ghastly place in the back of beyond on Saturday, and thinking about a mouthwatering FA Trophy game against someone like Chigwell.
But they couldn't, and we're in the playoff places in League 2. This time last year we were wobbling.
I'm thankful for small mercies, me.
