Players and managment abuse.

I think Deev's right, we won't go down. Because if it got the stage where things were that bad, Malpas will be off.

[DV]

You're right.

We havent pushed on and Malpas signings Kanyuka, Amankwaah and Casal havent looked good.

...but...then I did say we'd turn the corner. I didnt say Malpas would turn the corner.

Whilst I can see Spencers point that you can see similiarites with our relegation season I just think this team is alot better than that team ever was.

I'd say we were an under performing team, not a shit one. In 05/06 we were a shit team.

We'll see I guess....

[Don Rogers Shop]

Kennedy,aljofree,casal,smith all left back options. I know we need a defender on loan but surely we must be asking why we need one

We definitely need a left back. We miss Comminges so much

[Reg Smeeton]

 I admire your optimism, and obviously things don't have to happen because, they happened before, but 00/01 is an interesting comparison...that season we had 9 points after 11 games, T*dd could see the writing on the wall and jumped.

 We were semi decent at the back, but vunerable to headed goals, so King got in Heywood, we scrapped out some results along with some dross, and as we know stayed up only because Rovers fucked up big time at the end.

 Spence is right at the moment we look a side, destined if not for relegation at least in a struggle to avoid it..

We're too good to go down.

[Don Rogers Shop]

That is us fucked then ost. What worries me is how biased we are,fans of most teams we have played genuinly think we are the shittest they have seen

Just to clarify my original post, it was ironic. I don't really think we're too good to go down. In fact, I think we suck ass.

[Don Rogers Shop]

I know that but there are people who think we are too good to go down

[Crozzer]

We're too good to go down.

Forest were too good to go down.  Roy Keene was playing for them.  In Cloughie's book he put a lot of blame on not dropping a central defender that his assistants said he needed to do (name escapes me was on loan to Swindon at one point)

Total shite then no doubt.

[Iffy's Onion Bhaji]

I actually think we might stay up as well. I do think that we'll struggle to maybe even the last day like 00/01 though unless things pick up.

 Without wishing to sound a Jonah, I think things are likely to get worse, than they are now...so far this season I think we've been gettting the rub of the green, few injuries to key players, two games v 10 men, two pens awarded, none against and a reasonable fixture list. It tends to even itself out over a season.
