7 seasons of struggle, the likely ignominy of back to back relegation.

We're not that bad, surely!

We're not. We just look completely devoid of confidence at the moment and I'm sure that alongside the injuries is having a big impact.

Rotherham will go down as they've somehow lost to both ourselves and Blackburn this season so only two other spots to worry about.

As bad as we are I'm not worried about relegation at all. For example our owner at this stage of his tenure won't let things drift like Lerner would've done.

I'd I'd just appointed a manager and given him this much money, sacking him eight games into the season having basically bought a whole new team would not be what I'd be doing

I am absolutely confident we're not going down, no matter how shit or lucky we were today

The patient has received major surgery, unfortunately the condition is still critical.
The surgery was a success except the patient died but you can't win 'em all😀

We should be competing for the title. Instead we are likely to be in the bottom 3 come kick off next week.

Did anyone go down with 46 points?

Not last season, but in 2013 Peterborough went down with 54 points and Wolves with 51. Bloose stayed up on goal difference with 44 points in 2014. I know it's a long season and there's plenty of games but we really need to start posting some wins pfq.

We aren't going down, I think it will gel eventually,  we've only lost twice which shows we are a bit more resilient, we need to start turning draws into wins though

If I hear any more bollocks like "if we play like we did against Forest we'll be fine" or even worse, "any time soon we're going to hand somebody a thrashing" I'll go a bit postal like Michael Douglas in Falling Down.

I said something very similar to a colleague this week, except I think I said "I'll be taking hostages"

Just don't know what to make of it anymore. We have now had several managers and, not one of them seems to have a clue as to his best team or how to set them up. I thought RDM was the man for the job but, not anymore. He seems as clueless as all the others. Maybe it's time for Dr T to appoint one of us as we seem to see more from where we sit than the Manager does. The one common theme with all the managers has been thinking Westwood in undroppable!!

It shows this league is appalling. A better manager would have had a go at us earlier than Ipswich did and the last 10 minutes were chaos. Pretty soon the other sides will realise we are pish and have a go earlier.

I love away games. I don't have to sit through away games. I actually feel ok today. Really I do.

The thing about Westwood being undroppable isn't true, he's just only centre mid who stays fit for an extended period of time.

Look at some of the results today and the sides that won. Does anyone right now think we would beat Preston 5-0 like Brentford did? Or how about going to Newcastle and winning like Wolves did? I can't see where the next win is coming from and my concerning the team are starting to think that way too.
