I agree with most of that. In addition to the games above, perhaps we should include Quorn where we led the leaders going into injury time - who knows how much confidence the team would have gained from taking 3 points there.

To state the obvious, we are unlikely to end up in a relegation battle ...

Where is Ryan Inman today?

Well that was a huge disappointment and arguably our worst performance for a long time.

Khalsa were just as careless as we were at times but took their chances with ruthless efficiency - helped by some inept defending where we were beaten for pace and gapping was an issue.

I am going to reserve comment on the relegation situation until ...
