Great, thanks.
After the 17 match unbeaten run at the end of last season, I had high hopes for my second team York City.
But 3 points from 3 suggests that it is could be a repeat of the first half of last year. I just hope it can be turned around more quickly this time.
Does anyone have any thoughts on who will be promoted and who will finish last?
That's four in a row for York.
Meanwhile, Morecambe make it four wins in a row, having finished 18th last year. Portsmouth and Cheltenham have also started well as has Burton who were in the play-offs. Poor starts for Oxford, Accrington and Newport.
Five draws in row now for York as they draw 0-0 to Wycombe, I sure on Soccer Saturday they mention that York is current on 22 match unbeaten run (not including play offs that is) but how many of them have been a draw?
Morecambe 100% record in league come to end as they lost 2-1 to Tranmere mean Burton are now top of this division but only on goal different as Cheltenham got late winning against Hartlepool to move them up to 2nd in table. Shrewsbury, Wycombe, Bury and Portsmouth (who lost today) are other teams in top 7.
Oxford got they first point of season after they draw 3-3 to Dag & Red but stay in bottom 2 along with Accrington who lost 2-1 to Bury.
Carlisle seen to be having same season as last season as they are 22nd in table, no win this season and lost 5-0 to Cambridge this afternoon.
Yes, since 1 February 2014 excluding play-offs. That was 11 wins and 6 draws in York's last 17 games of last season.
But the turnaround came at the start of 2014 - P23 W 14 D 7 L 2 - moving from 20th position to 7th in that time.
Further back, it was 7 draws out of 8 between 2 Nov and 26 Dec 2013 including the last 5 so it's deja vu. I'm now wondering what the all time record of draws in a row might be for any team. If it's a lot it's not one we want to beat!
They have started quite well!
We look a lot stronger than we did last year but most teams say that don't they?
Well considering the last two years for us have been dire its only time for us to have a good season finally!
Carlisle are bottom of table as they lost 3-0 to Bury, Exeter draw 1-1 to Oxford mean both of them have got same points as Carlisle but Carlisle goal diff is lot worse then Exeter and Oxford.
I see James Beattie leave Accrington yesterday but that didn't stop Accrington winning their second successive game as they beat Wimbledon 1-0.
Keith Curle started his reign as Carlisle manager with a 4-2 defeat at Mansfield
Mansfield won 3-2.
Good win that for Accrington and could been lot better if they didn't conceded two late goals in final 4 mins, I wonder how well John Coleman will do at Accrington now he back manager them for second time?
I see Bury won big game of day in this division as they beat Burton 3-1 and replace Burton at top of this division, Exeter got they first win of season as they beat Tranmere 2-1 and now out of bottom 2 mean Hartlepool are now in bottom 2 as they lost 2-0 to Plymouth.
Beat Hartlepool 2-0.
Come on you greens:D
I'll echo that. Anyone at the Northampton-Accrington match, as we've got Accrington next, and they managed to put 5 past Northampton.
Did Northampton just have a bad day?;-)
Whoops, I heard 4-2
Exeter beat Cambridge on Tuesday so today wasn't their first win of the season
At bottom of table, Carlisle won they first game since 5th April as they beat Tranmere 1-0 and Oxford are now in bottom 2 after they lost 2-0 to Luton.
Also see John Coleman is having good second spell at Accrington as Accrington made it two wins in two as they beat Plymouth 1-0.
We (Plymouth Argyle) have had an up and down season so far. We win one, then lose two, then win one.
Early days though.
Good win that for Bury special with Burton losing last night and Wycombe could only draw 1-1 to Northampton, I would like to see Bury get promotion to League One special if Rochdale stay in our (Oldham) division then we will have two local teams in same division which doesn't really happen that much.
I see Hartlepool manager Colin Cooper have resigned from club after they lost 3-0 to Carlisle and move to bottom of League Two.
Jeff Stelling basically called for him to go on Soccer Saturday at the end of the game today. He said exasperatedly 'Something has to change'. When Stelling speaks, Hartlepool listens.
I see Wycombe is new leader of League two after they won 3-1 at Morecambe and Bury lost 3-2 to Wimbledon.
Just notice how well Luton are doing as they are now 4th in table after they won 2-0 against Southend and only four points behide Wycombe, could Luton do back to back promotion this season?
How badly Tranmere are doing makes me so glad County stayed up. This could easily have been us
I would love to go back to Luton for an away day
Also well done to Carlisle, three on the bounce now!

Also at the bottom of the table clash Oxford overcame Tranmere and sees them go 20th. Quite surprised at York still lurking in the bottom places I expected them to be challenging at the top!
