So, who do you have?

Cambridge (h)
Barnet (h)
Hartlepool (a)
Grimsby (h)
Accrington (a)

I'm not really one to post specific scores or results against teams; more how many points I think we should manage this month.

Am hopeful that we should be able to build on our good start and get 10 points, whereas it's not ever so easy, the home fixtures aren't the most scary looking - we have mixed showings at Hartlepool, and always, always lose infront of Accringtons sub thousand home crowd.

Be interesting to see peoples thoughts?

A bit early to say with any certainly which teams are going to weaker or stronger, but looking at the starts everyone has made then I'd like to think we should be getting six points from our home games against Accrington and Wycombe.

Blackpool and Orient will be tougher, Orient look to be approximately on the same level as us and while Blackpool haven't made a great start to the season I expect them to improve, and it is away. Doncaster away will be a genuinely tough one. I figure out of those three we'll see our first defeat of the season and either a couple of draws or hopefully a win and a draw, the win most likely coming at home to Orient so 2-4 points

That would give us 8-10 points for the month and put us on 17-19 points which should see us rise further up the league, maybe into the automatic places as it's pretty close right now. The game against Donny could potentially be a big game for the season as a whole.

10 points, which i'd certainly take! A nice month for us with 3 home game and 2 close enough away games. (Yes we consider London games close).

Accrington A - draw
Barnet H - win
Blackpool A - draw

We've won two on the bounce and we never, I repeat never win three in a row so we'll kick off with a boring draw against Crawley. We'll squeak a low-scoring win against Wycombe. We'll get a draw against Accrington who I feel have been pretty unlucky so far results-wise. Beat Barnet who are much better at home than away and then get an exciting draw at Blackpool. 9 points.

Notts County (A) - D
Luton Town (A) - L
Crewe Alex (H) - W
Mansfield Town (A) - D
Newport County (H) - W

Three decent away games, all of which I would probably take a draw from. We should be winning the home games.

8 points I reckon. Hoping for 10.

Luton (H) - Win

Stevenage should be easy. Yeovil should be easy, but we'll manage to lose. Mansfield could go either way. Plymouth I am already planning on using my Joker on Oakroaders predictions for a loss. Luton are a tiny club so that will be an easy win.

7 points from 15 - I'd be happy.

Crewe Alex
Hmm, the first month of the season for Crewe has been entirely unexpected. Gone a lot better than I thought it would. Still loads of issues in the squad and on the sidelines, but one or two steps taken in the right direction. However, Steve Davis has a massive month. Thing with drawing 3 of your first 5 games is, pessimists will say you've only won 1. Optimists will say you've only lost 1. If we have a shit month, the pressure will be right back on Davis. Some tough games as well.

Donny(H) - Loss. We usually come up short against Doncaster, although we did beat them back in April. I'd take a point, but I think we'll lose by a single goal.
Exeter(H) - Draw. Literally have no clue about this one. Never faced them, don't know how a Tisdale team will fare against us. I'll take a draw.
Grimsby(A) - Draw. Again, tough game at Blundell Park. They've had a mixed start, so could go either way. Again, I'll take a point.
Blackpool(H) - Win. Got to predict a win somewhere. Hopefully it'll be here, especially after the comical way we lost to them last season.
Wycombe(A) - Loss. Away on a Tuesday night down South? Yep, lose. Next.

Be a good month for us to put down a marker at home, it was our major weakness last season and we've been unconvincing in the league so far. I'd take a similar month to August - 3 wins, a draw and a loss would represent a sustained 2 points per game start which would be a very solid foundation to build from.

Accrington (H) - should be a win, we did well against Accrington last season and since then we've improved and they seem to be worse.
Orient (H) - draw, we go ahead and they equalise late on.
Blackpool (A) - first loss of the season. Potts will score and celebrate.
Wycombe (H) - win, defence has been good so far (ignoring last night) and this season's more refined attacking style will work well against the usual Wycombe tactics.
Doncaster (A) - draw after going behind. We usually perform well in games like these.
