To pontificate on a few of those issues. A great week in terms of results and we should now be nailed on for play-offs. Didn't think the Orient performance was as great as some, thought we played well but Orient were pitiful. Top performances from Howson and Huntingdon though. Macca's contract - i think designed to give us a little boost towards promotion. It's only a 12 month rolling contract - so wont cost Bates (or anyone else) much to pay-off if we dont go up. Arbitration - Like everyone else, don't really know, if it was a FL only decision i suspect they may have copped out and given us 5 points which is unlikely to make much difference at the end of the season. Get the feeling that independant arbitration is more likely to be an all or nothing result - Ie They are deciding whether it was fair to punish us at all rather than scale of punishment. Gillingham ticket restrictions - A bit of an over-reaction i think, the trouble last year was more to the relegation factor than it being the last home game. Still shouldn't be much of an issue, we're hardly likely to fill the ground. Don't think Kilkenny looked that injured Sat, Beckford missing would be a problem but he is low on confidence and not the loss he would have been early in season. Generally would prefer Rui and Huntingdon at back now but with Sheehans absence makes sense that Huntingdon goes to left back for a couple of years. Thompson - Don't care - has no part to play in our future anyway.
