August is good, 3 home games and local matches at Crawley and Luton.
September is bobbins, might book a holiday for the month!

That's a tough looking end to the season.
With so many Norvern teams maybe there will be extra STFC support at those that are relatively close
Really all we can do atm, is take baby steps. What looked like a reasonably promising position a back in Feb/March, was torpedoed by the Court case. It's been spookily quiet through the close season....maybe nothing to worry about, but given our history, you have to..

I think the end of season run in looks good: Sat, Apr 4: Franchise (H) - Draw Mon, Apr 6: Bristol City (A) - 3pts Sat, Apr 11: Peterborough United (H) - half decent stab at 3pts. Tue, Apr 14: Rochdale (A) - 3pts. Sat, Apr 18: Yeovil Town (H) - Piss easy 3 pts. Sat, Apr 25: Preston North End (A) - Draw/Loss Sat, May 2: Leyton Orient (H) - Draw Obviously this all depends on many factors but it looks a half decent chance at sneaking into the playoffs/autos at the end of next season.

It's been spookily quiet through the close season....maybe nothing to worry about, but given our history, you have to.. Most of the quietness I put down to the court case, there is no way Power will invest in manpower or signings if he is no longer deemed to be in control of the club come the 26th June. If Jed is (however unlikely it seems) said to have a stake/full ownership of the club then there are many rumours he will oust Cooper from his role (cue Cooper haters joy) so it is entirely understandable that there is a deafening silence from the CG at the moment. I don't like it either but I fully appreciate that nothing can be done until that date. At least most players arent even out of contract until the 1st July so I doubt we have missed out on any potential signings yet, even though PdC would have probably signed 12 players by now

There's really very little in there to get the juices going.....
That's because bar a couple of brief flirtations with the basement division, we've been stuck in Division Three for nearly 15 years now. All these Chesterfields, Colchesters, Tranmeres and Orients are starting to blend in to an indistinguishable mass of sameness.

I can see our away support plumetting with the Slave Traders being the only decent one. Heres hoping for a good cup run.

Not just that. Over the recent past, there's been a Wolves, Forest, Leeds, Leicester, Norwich, Soton down here, to leaven the dough a bit, some seasons even a couple of them. Then, sometimes locals like Rovers, Cheltnumb to add a bit of spice. A seaside trip, like a Bormuff, Plymuff, Pompey, Brighton or even a Torquay, is always welcome....but now all somewhere else. No, however you want to look at it, aside from Bristol City, there's not much to excite.

Coventry, playing at Sixfields in front of 1500, doesn't quite cut it.
