PortlandOwl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 We barely had a shot today, at home to a team who have been sharp decline. We're cooked I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asteener1867 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I hold out some hope... I think we have the players,..but I don't think anyone really knows how to use them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn59 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I really can't see us staying up now. We started a decent run under Thompson but after today we can all see the job is too big for him. Why drop Rhodes, why change the system and line up when it was working overall. If your car is running ok you don't go tampering under the bonnet. But today will go down as the game our season hinged on. If Rotherham win their game in hand we are back to a bigger catch up scenario where we not us to win and dpened on others losing. That never ends well. So the club really need to start looking at who will be the right manager for League 1, and what players. Cos it ain't going to be pretty or easy down their. We will be the smaller clubs cup finals and if we have players who aren't up for the battle we could have another 5 rot in that league 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think by some peoples reaction on here we are 10 pints adrift. We have thrown away numerous chances to be well clear of relegation. We choke just like we did in the playoff final. We don't have a team of winners. I said at the start of the season, we'd have cleared the points deduction by November and out of relegation by new year. But with the gutless performances I've witnessed there are poorer team with more fight than we have to stay up. I now revise my prediction to almost certain relegation. Lack of taking responsibility at all levels of the club is consigning us to failure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wycombe, Rotherham, Birmingham, Coventry, Huddersfield, Forest & Luton have all beaten us at some point this season. Hard to see how we get out of this situation. Thats just it, we dont have the mindset,players,manager! We just cant do a hudders today! Basically we are a pushovers and the other teams know it.

Bouncing Owl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 We can stay up but I don’t think we will. I had us down for relegation this season before a ball was kicked. We need to go back to 3-5-2 and get our wing backs getting crosses into the box for Paterson and Rhodes. Make it simple and go back to basics. We also need to hope we score the first goal, otherwise we are doomed. Today, I thought the tactics were strange. I don’t know if everyone is aware but we have acquired no points in games this season when we have been behind in a game at any point. It’s an extraordinary stat but not surprising given our lack of quality attacking options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flo Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Can we stay up? Yes of course any team can Do I think we will? No Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toooldforthis Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 6pts from the next 3 games and maybe we have something to work with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 As always I still think they’ll only be 1-3 pts between 20th-23rd come the last match. Just depends which side of that we’re on, and being honest I fear the bad side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toppOwl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 A win today would have kept us amongst the pack trying to avoid relegation the loss puts us a little adrift and IMO down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando_Trustful Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Yes, but after yesterday I don't think we'll do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 We need 4-6 points from the next 2 games to give us a chance imo. It would not surprise me if we come back with 0 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bulgaria Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Of course we can stay up. I highly doubt it though. Yesterday's game was vital, not only pointswise but mentally. The players we have are good enough to stay up IMO but it's so clear that they are as frustrated with the tactics as we are. Our whole coaching set up should be ashamed. They are Sunday league at best. Our mindset is riddled with boring, negative, try not to lose DNA. We will get what we deserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the second bit and we have been that boring negative mindset for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
