Despite the pre season loss of a number of key players, we are doing very well and are sitting a comfortable third with a great goal difference.
Kevin Doyle has kept on banging them in and has signed a new contract, he is being ably supported up front by Noel Hunt.
Jimmy Kebe is now striking fear into the hearts of fullbacks, despite being s figure of ridicule last year.
Jem Karacan is proving to be a real find, although he is being rested at the moment.
At least if/when he goes we should get a decent fee!
The match away to Bristol City last week was one of the best performances for a number of years.

I haven't seen us control a game like that for some time, cracking goal from Cisse also.
Today's game wasn't as good a performance, but as they say it's the results that count.
Great 20 yard effort from Doyle was a highlight of the performance, a downside was the really poor performance of the officials, particularly the yellow flag assistant who could have cost us the game. Two what looked like perfectly good goals disallowed and some phantom offsides ...
I'm really starting to worry about the general level of officiating in the English game, inconsistent and gutless are just two thoughts that come to mind :-(
Derby were really awful, they look as bad if not worse than last season!
Just looking at the report on Sky's web page, and apparently John Oster came on as sub in the 60th min !!!
Lets keep it up!
