We have been incredibly clinical at times this season so three goals isn't absurd, but given Southend's very good form I think if we do win it won't be by that sort of margin.
Neither side had an FA Cup game so both teams will be fresh and I agree, two in form teams, should be a great game. I can't image we'll make too many changes maybe just Brinds in for Baldwin, so Rawlinson back in the middle of the back three. And Langstaff is surely due a goal now too, it's been 2 games without!
I think if had to bet on it I'd go for a draw too. And I'd take it, assuming we can finally get a win at Eastleigh as that would be 4 points from our double header of away games this week.
Two ponts thrown away, I still think we should have had enough to win but fair play to Southend.
Good game, thought Southend did well to disrupt our build up on the whole. Slocombe had way too many touches for my liking, we needed to be a bit braver progressing the ball instead of playing safe. When we broke the lines we looked dangerous, we just didn’t do it enough.
I think the Southend first goal is lucky, 9 times out of 10 if you push a player in the back two handed you get a free kick… But there you go.
Draw was a fair result in the end, and I think Southend will be in the play-offs come the end of the season and are likely to take points off our rivals too.
This is a rerun of round 8, which was originally planned for September but was cancelled for monarchy-related reasons. Apart from that everything is the same - predict the following fixtures by 7.45pm on Tuesday, remember your jokers and please try to let me win this time. Good luck!

Another great result. Fingers crossed we actually look like a team that can last the pace. At the moment I would say it would be us or Wrexham, I realise its very early days but confidence means a lot, long may it continue
Not sure what to say really, sounded like another confident performance, excellent crowd, onto the next one! It'll be very difficult to shake Wrexham off and I personally doubt we'll hold top spot from now till the end of the season, but we are putting clear blue water between us and the rest.
Most importantly of all: four more wins and we're safe from relegation 
Tuesday nights aren't quite the same without a prediction league round, are they? So here you go. Please send in your predictions by 7.45pm on Tuesday, and remember your jokers. Good luck!

Well apart from a sending off a very satisfying night for Notts.
Another fantastic result, I think they said the last time we scored 6 away was at Chelsea in the 1920’s! Mad!
Only blemish is Brinds red card but if you had to pick a game to miss you’d say bottom of the league (not that I’m taking anything for granted) is an ideal chance to ease Baldwin back in. Early season I was dubious about our system particularly the roles of the wingbacks but credit to Chicks and Nemane, they're smashing it there. And great to have shared the goals around, Macca is red hot but we are certainly not a one-man team.
Back-to-back home games now, although we’re doing pretty well playing away this season ????
Fantastic result. Wealdstone away is exactly the kind of fixture where we've slipped up in seasons past, but we smashed it out of the park this time. The goals were top quality too.
So Wrexham are still snapping at our heels, but we've already opened up an eight-point gap to third. All we have to do to go up is win every game 
As Abraham Lincoln definitely once said: "Have a go at the PON prediction league. You know you want to." If you want to take his advice, this round of fixtures kicks off at 3pm on Saturday 10 September, and you have a joker each.
Advance warning: I will be on holiday for the three rounds following this one, so I'm going to make the topics this evening and unlock them three days before the respective matches kick off. Nothing will change from your end, but forgive me if there's a delay in counting the points

Comfortable win, and could have been better if chances were converted. Where was this attitude in the cup?.
I'm glad we didn't suffer a hangover after the FA Cup game, but I didn't think we would as the team was back to the one that had notched up the 4 wins previous.
I only listened and have seen the highlights, but Maidstone clearly came to frustrate but it didn't work at all. Totally dominate for the whole game, and Slocombe only had one save to make. Macca ploughing on with his goal scoring record attempt but it's important not to forget Cedwyn. 7 goals from 14 games for him, he's not getting the headlines but that's a great goal return. And good to see Ruben get his first open-play goal, given his change in role this season he probably won't get as many goals but he's still a vital part of why the team is doing so well.
Our form right now is incredible really, we're on the kind of run that you need to win this league. 10 games, 9 wins and 1 loss. Tuesday can't come soon enough at the moment!
So there’s been a ton of articles about him this past week, features on the BBC Sport site and few write ups in national papers too.
I just wondered if anyone really thought he’d be as good as he has been? I remember when I first posted about him, I said he’d be doing well to get 15 goals in his first season for us, little did I know he’d have achieved that tally by October! I was worried when Woots left and thought it would take a bit of time for Langstaff to adjust to the step-up. I've been really surprised at how good he is!
