Would we have taken this position and the general way the season has unfolded, at the start?

I think yes.

We had a very tough start and kept heads above water. Then pulled away when the easier run came. We are now entering another tough month and need to keep afloat, before shit gets real towards the end.

Wouldn’t say we’re done for but it’s going to us or someone else I reckon.

You won’t get great odds on that fearless prediction

Said yesterday it’s out of us and Rotherham who will go down

Team tipped by everyone to be in relegation battle in relegation battle SHOCK. Jesus fucking Christ. I’d rather be 5 clear than bottom of the league. Arseholes like saddlebrains are literally gloating and proclaiming we are already done for, arseholes

I gave you a like for the first two sentences.
I'm not commenting on the third, I'm trying to stay out of any controversy for the time being!

It’s the ‘I told you so’ threads I can’t fucking stand. It’s like they think that they have some profound knowledge of the game.

yeah, predicting a newly promoted team with one of the lowest budgets and and ever growing injury list could drop into the bottom 3 after a run of fixtures against the promotion chasing clubs is hardly visionary.

Precisely. I understand critiquing performances during games, we all do it. It’s the complete hyperbole when we fail to beat a team with a much larger budget full of players with championship experience that annoys me. It pissed me off losing against Forest but we will lose a lot more than we will win in this league. If you take into account that the spine of our team are missing plus our best right wing back then what do people really expect

why are you happy when we lose responses imminent!!
Thought to be fair I say the same thing to the doom mongers!

Not just the spine either. All goal scorers. And all flair like Jones, Jobello, Kasta, Hilßner, or even Bapaga aren’t available for various reasons either physical, mental, or chronological.

We’ve done really well so far and aren’t getting battered very often. This season is all about survival until reinforcements arrive both on the pitch and in the stands next summer.

If we do end up going down I’ll be disappointed like everyone else, especially when we have got ourselves into a decent position. But the reality is we were likely to be fighting a relegation battle so I don’t know why threads like this exist as it’s gloating about something everyone predicted

Arsehole, yep. Good insult. Clean, concise straight to the point. Just a shame it's took you 11 years to comment on the post.

Anyway. We've all agreed to swerve this thread untill end of March

I haven’t agreed to anything! This thread is utter nonsense produced by a negative tit with nothing positive to contribute. Adios

 

[Saddlebrains]

Laters babe

 

[Saddlebrains]

I said id revisit this at the end of the month and take the shit if i needed too.

We've come out of that horrible set of fixtures 5 above the drop zone.

A hell of a lot better than i thought when posting.

So anyway, feel free to lay into me, i can take it like a man

I was in the exact same mindframe as you Saddlebrains. We've outperformed my expectations, without being spectacular.

Haha, i meant end of feb, after the shitty fixtures

 

[clint van damme]

really need something out of Saturday and given their run of form we should be aiming for 3 points

I think you're allowed Saturday too.

 

[Magwitch]

Need to at least emulate Rotherham and Sheff Wed results Saturday they play each other a week tonight

 

[Liquid Gold]

These are the games that make me anxious. Can take a tight loss against a top team away from home like tonight but when we should look for 3 points I get more frustrated at us if we're too defensive.

 

[cc84cov]

Can see all teams around us getting points this week we need to be getting something at Blackburn

 

[no_loyalty]

Blackburn will have lost 5 in a row if they lose tonight, really hope they don’t get rid of Mowbray before the weekend.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Lost 5 in a row, manager on the brink but then ex-manager curse ex-player curse and you're playing Cov. They'll beat us if he stays.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Blackburn pulled another one back
