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

True, but there have been several occasions where we perhaps got more than we deserved/could easily have done on another occasion: Torquay away (though that probably rebalances Torquay home), Crewe away, Chesterfield away, even Aldershot away.

I thought we deserved aldershot.

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.

But we've now won four out of five at home. Things are definitely looking up...

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 &quotif onlys&quot. 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 we hadn't lost at home the Leyton Orient...

If only we'd been allowed to play in Europe in the mid-80's...

How about that disgusting penalty given to Chelsea in the FA cup. Still haunts me now, Kevin Francis made the only clean tackle in his life...

A certain Kevin Brock back pass against Everton still haunts me in the 'if only' stakes.

If the Yellows can keep the impressive form up we might soon be 3rd.

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.
