SheffieldGraduate Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I am thinking a couple of decent loan signings on top of Varney, and I think we will finish mid table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlpahamp Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I am thinking a couple of decent loan signings on top of Varney, and I think we will finish mid table. I can't see any investment. We need to forget about that and if it comes it's a great bonus. Although our last two resiults have been great I'm not getting too carried away. Still be a fight at the bottom. Sounds depressing doesn't it. Next year will be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hirstyno9 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I am thinking a couple of decent loan signings on top of Varney, and I think we will finish mid table. If Irvine can get 3 points against the Posh on saturday then he truly is the new messiah, 3 wins on the spin is very unlike SWFC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sheridan's2penalties Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 We were turning in one poo result after another for so long that it seems like everyone started to look to investment as some kind of shining light throught the never ending tunnel of despair, cos for a couple of months it seemed like the only hope we had. It's amazing what a couple of wins can do (and not forgetting a respectable draw against toon). I've actually started to remember what football is all about, and investment just seems like a side issue that I don't really think about, which is exactly the way it should be! No idea how this season's gonna pan out, but it's for sure that right now I feel 100 times happier than I have for a long while! UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Think tank Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Can't see any investment coming in. I like Lee and don't believe he is trying to string us along, however I do believe that if it was going to happen it would of happened by now. It always seems to be a matter of weeks away, despite a matter of weeks having passed several times! I'm not to fussed about new signings, I strongly believe that this squad vastly under-achieved under Laws this season and I expect us to finish in about 16th now we have got someone else in. Any money we do have should be saved for the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CampbellOwl-36 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Investment? Who cares! A good performance from the lads and a well deserved 3 points on Saturday is what it's all about. Let's bosh the Posh! UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm amazed at the instant impact Alan Irvine has had. I expected him to turn it around, but not so quickly. What we have to guard against is complacency. If we win on Saturday, and against Plymouth... who knows... The table will look a lot different, especially if we pick up at least a point against Scunny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Theboylangers Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) A long hard struggle with the next 3 games being vital. I feel we must take a minimum of 4 points ( preferably 6) to give us a chance of finishing mid table. Anything less and it's a battle all the way. I think we are in a mini-league at the moment consisting of us, Reading, Plymouth and Peterborough. A couple of wins in the next 3 games will see us competing in the next mini league ( Derby, Coventry, Barnsley, Preston and Sflaphorpe). The immediate aim, and I'm sure AI knows this, is to get to that next mini-league. And from there, safety will beckon.

LoOn Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 4th from bottom with promise of investment just weeks away in time for season ticket renewal deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobHowe Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 We won't be relegated for a start. We'll probably finish around 16th, 17th or 18th. I can't see any new players coming in. Nor can I see any investment coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ashjam Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 We'll end up well clear of relegation. As for the other matter........................................ We'll find out shortly won't we? Just listen to what LS tells you. He is telling you as much as he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris E Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 If Irvine can get 3 points against the Posh on saturday then he truly is the new messiah, 3 wins on the spin is very unlike SWFC!It's not completely unthinkable to think we could have 5 wins on the bounce. Who'd have thought that was possible just a couple of weeks ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Wednesday Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Complacency is a killer. Remember 1990? In terms of points needed to avoid relegation, we're only at least half-way there. I'm confident that under Father Ted we've got a great chance of staying up but am expecting it to go to the last handful of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brownlad Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Still think january will make or break us and still think we will go down, although slightly more confident now. As far as investment goes, it would be nice to say who cares, but without a high quality youth system that can turn out players for a decent, regular profit, no investment means a good few years of lower table battling and stagnation in my opinion. Although that's not to say I'm moaning about it as I'm pretty confident the chairman will come up with the right goods... Although admittedly that's based on a bit of blind faith.

durhamowl3 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 12-14th. No investment but it won't matter. ST sales will slighty increase, but at a higher cost meaning more funds for the team. Next season is ours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris E Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 To be fair, January was always going to be an 'easier' month looking at the fixtures.It was, but even then, it was going to be more through hope that we could get the level of performances and points. Now, even though it won't be easy, we've got a genuine chance of doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nookiebear Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 We'll sneak the play-offs, get promoted, investment will be delivered, our ***** will become hard, life will be wonderful, then there'll be a nuclear war or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest carlg Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Rather looking forward to an intense Yorkshire CCC next season: Us, The Pigs, Hull, Donny, Dingles, L**ds, and good old Huddy Town. Wouldn't be surprised if we do a last minute - very vague chance of play-offs - push (necessary to keep us motivated, we don't want mid-table complacency to creep in, in March time - which is where I believe we will be now we have AI in charge, thank God). Investment? No idea. Hope so, obviously, if only because it will for once and for bloody all resolve the disparate share-spread issue and maybe even rid us of some of our shareholders, all in one swoop - no names, no pack-drill Just hope no silly offers (that can't be refused) come in for core members of the team, who are the basis for the future - especially Grant. Tudgay needs to prove himself, and pronto - no excuses now BL's gone, Tudders - simples! Oh, and looking forward to shedding ourselves of some very costly dead wood come season's end - especially one certain FJ9 - he can go the way of 'those' shareholders we need shot of. Good riddance. Next season WILL be a classic. UTO!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
