The players are all trying 100% so these 'surprise' results will come, its not like weare settling for just damage limitation we are going for points. Nothing to do with being 'content' more to do with being realistic.
We played Forest Green Rovers after a derby game we played for 70mins with 10 men, we looked tired and went behind TWICE but still did not lose. Thats not content but a point gained when non could easily have happened.
Before Christmas we were 2 points off the relegation places, now we are 3pts but have 3 games less to play until the end of the season, surely that makes it a good xmas period ?
We have been getting the result against the teams around us, barr Rushden.
