If Huddersfield win game in hand we are in relegation zone and can’t win for shit. The unthinkable is slowly becoming a very real prospect. Do we deserve to go down? It’s hard to argue against it considering this is the worst standard of Championship in Living memory and we are among the worst. Forest Green Away anyone?

I have a bad feeling now, these players are rubbish Exactly! I mean, who are these "great" options off the bench anyway? I don't think we have any. Collection of mismatches as options, or kids but without an on-pitch leader, other team would just beat the hell out of em. |

Hopefully our position will get the players fired up.
The concerning thing is teams don't have to do anything to score past us.
That was probably a weak Sheffield United performance but they got three shots off and with that got three goals.
he's spoke about how we have no width or wingers in place yet his team selection was designed to keep the play narrow.

That Hull equaliser could be crucial.
We’re in massive trouble but I do genuinely think the 3 teams currently occupying the relegation spot will be relegated.
Wigan and Blackpool definitely.
Huddersfield might have a bit of fight, but I still think they’ll go down.

he has a squad of players that are seasoned championship players and produced that. OK I understand they are one of the better teams in the league, but they made us look like dildoes without batteries. PNE Rotherham etc much the same except they were both shit and took points. Time baldie was fucked off. |

Huddersfield might have a bit of fight, but I still think they’ll go down. Wigan look hopeless. Blackpool have made a couple of decent signings which could give them a boost. Huddersfield seem to be harder to beat now and are picking up results here and there. Whilst we’re not the worst side down there, we could well be the worst equipped side to deal with a relegation battle. |

Unless something dramatic happens in the next two weeks, I think it more than 50% likely we will be going down. The total lack of inertia or passion at the heart of the club in the boardroom and on the playing field gives me very little hope of avoiding it.

This set of players wouldn't be able to keep us in Div 1,so unless we bring in at least 4/5 players we are truly fucked.

We're certainly past the point where the manager can say each week 'the league is still taking shape' as he was doing as recently as 2 weeks ago.
I didn't it was possible for this squad of players to get relegated and I still don't but we're giving it a real good go!

We can’t score, we can’t keep clean sheets, no pace, power or fight, not exactly the best attributes for a team in a relegation battle

Matty Taylor has had no problems in getting a very limited Rotherham side to hit 4 against Blackburn today.

I hate to say this and feel a bit defeatist in doing so but, the way we are playing this season, I'd take that now as an end of season position. Terrible isn't it?

As each week passes, I get more and more nervous about relegation becoming a very real possibility. Today, I think for me, that became a genuine worry.
We certainly aren't playing like a team who want to stay in this division. And that isn't because of promotion.

What gives you that impression? I see a team who are totally not good enough and destined for the drop. |

Unfortunately mate, the results just don't lie. We are well in the relegation dog fight so far, this season has become a survival job. Regardless of what happens, stay up or go down, massive changes are needed at this football club, and that goes from boardroom level all the way to on the pitch matters.

Every time I see the thread title I have to check the table in case it wasn't updated when I looked but we are FOUR points, above the drop zone. Only two places above but definitely four points.
Not saying it's good but better than the thread title suggests. Plus we've played both Burnley and Sheffield Utd twice and they are winning more games than anyone else.
Not sure we're going to be safe but I do hope we can grind out some wins.

Huddersfield have a game in hand so that could have (at the time) dredged us into the drop zone. Its horrific reading. Lose next week and we may well be in it |
