Yesterday was quite shocking! We beat Bristol Rovers 4-0 but this one felt like total domination, a bit like England v San Marino. As far as I am concerned Weston, Whelpdale, Lee, Payne and Nelson are not only League 1 standard but either very good League 1 standard or higher. You could probably count Barratt and Allen in that list given they came from that league whilst the rest possibly wouldn't look out of place there either.
Last season many scoffed when I when said I felt we would fair better in League 1 than 2, that the players were more suited to that style of play as was seen from the FA Cup fixtures. I think this shows they are. Not only that, go up with momentum and I feel we could get back to back promotions. I mean top of League 1 is Tranmere and Stevenage! Do we feel honestly these sides are miles above our level???
I hope I am not getting carried away in the euphoria but I believe this has all the hallmarks of a push back to the glory days. At least, I don't think we would go down if we were to go up.
