Taking a moment...

Watching an end of year League One review at the minute and looking at the table, it's incredible what a phenomenal job Alex, the backroom staff and squad have done this year.

I'll be the first to say I really don't find our style of play 'fun' to watch, but given our position - ground size, wages available, reputation, size of our network/playing staff etc...we've done such an incredible job this year and I'm so proud of the club for their accomplishments, when most had us pegged for relegation.

The top 8 teams around us are all big clubs with the exception of Stockport & Lincoln who have had quite a bit of funding recently: Lincoln, Cardiff, Stockport, Bradford, Bolton, Luton, Plymouth & Huddersfield. We have absolutely no right to be where we are right now.

Is it attractive? Not really, but if we wanted to play teams as their own game, perhaps we'd be looking down the other end of the table and find ourselves in a similar position to Orient. And it might not be sexy, but successful teams find a way to win when performances aren't there and there have been a handful of those moments this season - Port Vale away comes to mind.

I've absolutely been critical of Rev's, and try to take a balanced view of enjoying watching games vs results but with 2 (possibly 3) huge games on the horizon, it's easy to forget where we were a couple of seasons ago and I for one will just appreciate the good times the club continues to deliver for us, against the odds.
