4) What's your manager like and will he still be there at the end of the season?
Sean O'Driscoll is an understated manager, always gets the best from players, always able to find players who can do a good job even though we have no money. I fully expect him to be at Dean Court in 10 years time!!

6) Which team do you want to beat the most and why?
All of them - cos we do!! Would like another double over Sheffield Weds just to teach them why they are in League One/Division 2/old Third Division. Also Torquay as we never seem to beat them under any circumstances!!

7) Predict your champions and runner up, the 4 Play-Off teams and the 4 to go down.
Sheffield Wednesday should walk the Division and Stockport County to go with them. As for the play-offs, Bristol City (again), AFC Bournemouth (I'll be brave), Hull City, Swindon Town.
