Which is why after 2 games we were at the top and now after 8 games we are near the bottom. Favourable results for us in the next 2 could throw us into the play offs (disclaimer I've not looked at who plays who just that we are 4 points off) so the table is in a state of flux this early.

I just looked at the Football Stadiums website and they have our pitch down as 104 x 64 yards which does make Field Mill the most narrow pitch in League 2 along with Bradford City, Colchester United, Exeter City, Forest Green Rovers, Swindon Town and Stevenage.
Leyton Orient have the widest pitch in League 2 (73 yards) followed by Port Vale (70 yards), Hartlepool (70 yards) and Rochdale (69 yards)

A Rochdale fan tweeted me about this yesterday, saying they couldn’t believe how narrow our pitch was. Has it been adjusted or is it always that size?

I said the same thing at half time.
Rhys Oates is a good debate in its own right.
I just don't see a role for him and fail to see what he brings to the side?

To me he's another Jamie Reid, ie 'he's none League for a reason'.
Everything I have seen from him so far has yet to conince me to the contrary.

Conrad would have been blamed for that one

I agree Andy, if he sticks with keeping us narrow and compact on the widest pitch in the league then we'll struggle
