This one has me scratching my head.....

We are 2nd bottom the entire football league and looking at the conference head on.

We have lost our last SIX consecutive home games, definite relegation form ?

We have WON our last FIVE consecutive away games, definite promotion form, 3 of the last five teams beaten away are in the promotion hunt too.

Explain please ?

Too much pressure from home fans worried about the drop? Quite a few teams under pressure play better away from home.

You may be to blame. Sorry

Location Stockton on Tees

We won up your way yesterday and gave the not so mighty Middlesbrough a run for their money on telly other week.

The fact that for years now we have serious problems with our chairman does put pressure on at home I think part of what you say does have a bearing on home form.

Cup games are always awkward. Ask a Liverpool fan.

Good win for you yesterday Darlo can run hot and cold though. At least you have a couple more games left than the teams above you.

I come from a part of the world where football and its tribalism can be a very divisive force.
When there's a big game on the telly, I'll be the only guy in the street out cutting the grass or down at Tesco getting the grub in.

That's how much I have dissasociated myself with the whole idea.

In my formative years, I went every week.
