There's only Huddersfield between us and the bottom 3.
I had thought the bottom 3 were sunk without trace but Sheffield Wednesday at least are showing flickering signs of life.

As shit as we are, I think there's enough about us to get over 50 points.

Even if there is still time to pull away, it's not looking great at the moment!!!
If we were to drop into the bottom three, I'm not sure Neil has it in him to start getting something out of the players to pull clear.... We may get the odd result (bit like we do now), but it's going to be a very nervy end to the season!!!
We need points on board now, even if it's just enough to keep us from the bottom three!!!

When 'Nil' waltzed in through the doors last August like a steam train he was talking about Promotion 'this season or next' and somehow we're now debating whether this team will go down.
Stoke have pulled some strokes in my lifetime, most of them over the last 6 years, but this one would really take the biscuit.

5th from bottom with 21 points from 19 games of course we should be worried.

I remember thinking there are 3 worst teams than us a couple of months ago, but now those are the teams that are taking points off us
Losing to Sheff Weds and or Swansea would be real litmus tests in more ways than one

We are regressing at an alarming rate of knots. I never saw it coming but we are definitely more likely to be relegated than challenging for a play off place. These last few games I've looked to the dug out to try and gain some reassurance that AN is in control and will make tactical adjustments or tactical thought out subs but all I see is is a little bald fella with his hands thrust deep into his tracksuit trouser pockets with a bewildered expression on his face. We're in deep shit as long as this cretin remains the manager.

No chance of us being relegated. Is that you, Alex?

It is a distinct possibility. We are, once again, REALLY shit. It beggars belief. Once again?! 😂

The weird thing is next season could be just that, in reality the players don’t seem bothered. It’s time for change methinks.

I’d say it’s a lot more likely than the 12/1 that Denise is currently offering. We are absolute garbage and were fortunate in two of the three wins in October.

Of course we should be worried, huddersfield are no worse than us and at least one of the bottom 3 will turn things around! For the record I think Sheffield Wednesday will finish above us.

Have to say that the Sheff Wednesday game is absolutely crucial ( for AN in particular).. Win and he's here for the window and beyond. Draw and he's going to be discussed at Mondays board meet. Lose and he's toast I'm afraid.

As shit as we are, I think there's enough about us to get over 50 points. You're probably right but I struggle to see us improving unless the manager gets a revelation. I think Rotherham and Wednesday are doomed but if Hudds and QPR turn it around we could easily be playing the Vale next season. 😝

We will get relegated before we get promoted, I am almost certain. We will if we leave AN in charge. It's failed. Time to move on now before it gets worse.

As disjointed a team as there’s is out there without quality at the back.

Surely a few FFP penalties to 1 or 2 opposition teams will play in our favour 🤞

My heart and head tell me no, and that we have more than enough to see us avoid it. And then I remember the absolute shower that is our back four (individually and as a unit) yesterday, with a mediocre Bonham behind them and a seriously out of form Pearson in front of them, and then I’m minded to think it’s a distinct possibility.
Bloody hell.

It kinda feel’s possible. But on paper the side should be fine but that’s a big should Yes I don’t see where the goals are coming from We can’t defend for toffee Bonham is garbage Our goals from open play feel like a fluke We’re drowning in negativity The players look indignant to the club, a manager smirking at a loss fundamentally are happy to burn the house down The manager accepts zero responsibility, week on week We’re caught again between, leaving it and he may come good and going to soon and the wheels truly come off. An odd good result will paper over cracks We’ve thrown our lot in with AN so why get rid We don’t see it coming..
