I'm not confident just yet, that we aren't out of the woods. However, I'm not as convinced as I once was.....

I'll keep praying to Alan and by the grace of Cod we'll be sailing in calmer waters.

 I do think we have to win 2/3 from 5,which I said before Portsmouth. Won 1 lost 1. So we need a win from the next 3 games before I can start to relax a little.

Seems to me Oleary is talking himself up as doing a good job saving us from the drop.

It worries me that some people have bought into his mantra. That he wants us to be safe, and thats the sum total of our season. Its so sad that aclub such as Aston Villa, with decent investment in the transfer marketlast summer, should be squabbling over the ills or not of this buffoon.

The media-ie those not biased- have outed this moron as an idiot who passes the buck. We still have to wait until the powers that be draw this period to a close.

Do I blame Ellis? Well to a point. If there is a takeover happening, then the sacking of the manager isn't going to happen. Which leaves us in limbo. I was an O Leary supporter up until October. Then the penny finally dropped. Its been sinking ever since and its now starting to rust. Just like Villa with him in charge.

I'm not angry anymore, as its obvious that manger/chairman aree not going to change for a while. Please let them both be gone in the summer, and we have renewed hope, ambition, expectancy, professionalism, zest, and passion. Every week with this lot we lose just a little bit more.

I want three things to happen before August.

Firstly, to avoid relegation. We are not yet safe, despite what many are saying.

Secondly, to have a takeover that actually happens and Doug gone.

Finally, the new regime to realise that we need a new manager, to bring fresh optimism to the Club.

It's not too much to ask for is it?  [-o<

Just thought. Why don't we offer Drummond and Chris Smith asylum? They can stay in here out of reach of the rest of the buggers? Sadly, they'll be alone for the daylight hours and may ruin this once beautiful place. Huddling together speaking their language that we don't understand.

By the time we'll try and remove them back to their thread of origine they'll have disappeared into the system.

Hmmm? What do you reckon fellow Worriers?

Hmmm good point. If we grant the asylum though they'd have to take an oath of alliegance, or some sort of thread loyalty test. Then they'd have to abide by our laws. We're only a small thread with a big history and have had no trouble here since those dark days way way back. If they didn't contribute to our society we could deport them as free loaders.

Not here though Robbo. Just you, me, and JD. Well only until we get close to 150 and 200 though. Then all the glory hunters will be coming out of the woodwork claiming that this is their favourit thread and that they've been contributing to it every day. We're the hardcore though mate. We'll keep it real.

Hello Legion, welcome to our overseas thread.

Robbo, I was only joking on the other thread, most NZers I know like strange shaped balls and sheep. I try and steer well clear.

Is it any wonder the women over here want to marry someone from overseas.  O:)  \:D/
