while that would be great (obviously), we should probably temper expectations with the fact that we are carrying quite a few 'walking wounded' - Danny Wright, Asa Hall, Lemonheigh-Evans and Whitfield all with issues, and Wynter already out, plus Little absent for...however long..we're in danger of starting to look a little thin.
Ordinarily we would probably expect to beat both King's Lynn and Dagenham, but the two games against Yeovil are the games that'd give me pause. On the plus side, we'll have 11 days between Dag & Red and the Yeovil home game, which is much needed.
I would ecstatic if we were to get 15 points from these 5 games, but honestly, I'd be totally ok if we came out of them with 11 (3 wins, 2 draws). I don't see anybody else in the league catching us be time the fifth game is played. And then we'll have to see what January brings, particularly with regards to loan signings (I think Randell and Sherring's loans are set to expire then?) and possible outgoings; somebody like Whitfield has surely got teams in higher division tracking him now.
