Stockport County striker Peter Thompson has urged his team mates to keep their heads high and believe that they can avoid relegation as County are firm favorites to go down in the League this season.

With a poor run of just one win in six games County find themselves lying two points outside the relegation Zone however Thompson believes the Squad and Boss Gary Ablett can turn things around.

By CHRIS LARKIN With Rugby Union's blood gate incident taking up the majority of Sky Sports' time I was relieved to see Football back as the main focus point of the channel and was shocked to see that Chelsea had been ban from making any transfers until January 2011.

I do have sympathy towards Chelsea's case in the way they appear to be singled out but if I'm quite honest I find it hard to actually feel sorry for teams when so many Stockport County players have been poached over the years for pittance, it's disgraceful we spend time and money training quality players that could get County to the next level and then get sold on for alot of money but the ‘bigger' clubs always come in and coax the naive kids into coming to the bigger team, when in actual fact all it does if deprive County of a player that could've really helped us and in many cases will ruin the players career.
