Justbeanz Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 They honestly look like a side that don't want to stay up. No fight in any of em today apart from Hutchinson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely horrendous defeats. Our record against the teams around us is the same. We have won 2 home games in a year. I think ourselves and wycombe are gone. Teams have games in hand on us and can manage more than 1 win 8 or 9 which is all we do. I think the last place will be between yourselves and coventry. Rotherham have got 10x more fight in them than the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musn't Grumble Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 It's not so much that we are getting beaten it's how were are getting beaten, too. There's no quality in the performances, confidence is shot (check out the body language after the sending off today) and tactically we are bereft of any creativity. I don't think that the players in the squad are that bad but they will sure need some decisive management and coaching if, by some miracle, we stand a chance of not going down.

Kew Owl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 It’s not over yet, but I now regard it as very unlikely that we can turn this round. Lack of goals and strikers and failure to strengthen during the Jan transfer window is likely to ultimately prove to be our downfall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 If NT thinks Windass-Paterson is our answer - no, we go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watto Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 The chance was the January transfer window .....we sign green who hasn't started a game yet but isn't the answer and Hutchinson , 2 more uninspiring signings you will not see. The squad as a whole hasn't got the quality or fight to stay up , teams must love playing us they must be rubbing their hands together ....a 3rd relegation is looming since we came down from the premier League and I am absolutely certain we won't get back as easily as before , 2nd season both times , I'd go as far as saying we could slip down to league two tbh , under chairman Mao we are a disaster of a football club and him selling up is our only chance if coming back.

Hello league one! . Might as well start planning for League 1. The ideal candidate for next season won't come now though after Chansiri labelled him unprofessional. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really couldn’t care less if they all left. Absolutely this. Its been a problem since before this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adelphi1867 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I always thought we would come good, but with that midfield we have no chance, every time we come up against a team that get's in the faces of our midfield they collapse. It's time we brought some grafters and winner's in our midfield, how long have we been saying that, show pony's like we have do not win any thing.

briggowl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 We can stay up. I've been pleasantly surprised by many results since Pulis left, they'd have to surprise me another 8/9 times tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffield_dave Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 This team is exactly what it looks like. Will grind out just about enough to give fans the occasional hope, but not even close enough to keep itself above the line or pull away from trouble. Whatever hope they drum up, this team will go down and it probably won’t go to the wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Like watching a terminally ill relative die this. Couple of positive days but we are in the inevitable giving up the fight phase now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddogbob Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I think we look like a punch drunk boxer who's had one to meny fights. I don't think we'll stay up, I've thought that since the start of the season, due the psychological impact of the points deduction. If we do pull It off, it'll be akin to winning the league.

StrensallOwl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I've lost hope now, this time last week I thought we'd stay up but not after this. DC is living in a dream world with pixies, elves & talking frogs. He's looking more & more like a 10 bob Bond Villain with every week that passes. I can see us starting in League 1 with -15 points for going into administration at this rate. If we could at least stop giving away penalties & finish games with 11 players we'd have a much better chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
