I completely agree. What on earth is Colin talking about saying that we are too good to go down. I''m sure the Forest players were saying exactly the same thing and look where they are now. All our players should be thinking about the real prospect of relegation and making sure that it doesn''t happen at any cost. I just cannot see where our next win is going to come from and a lot of the so called lower teams are starting to dig in now and grind out results, do we have the personnel to do this? I''m not too sure.  The problem that i think we have with Etuhu is that we have such a small squed that we do not have any other option but to play the great lump and hope for the best. We need at least one player in defence, midfield and up front which is a big ask but hopefully PG will weave some magic and save our floundering season. OTBC

At the minute i am rather concerned with the current situation at our beloved club. I was slightly suprised with the appointment of PG earlier in the season and am yet undecided as to whether it was a good decision. He is certainly talking the talk but as results show he is yet to walk the walk. I am fully of the opinion that he needs more time to bring in his own players instead of fumbling around with the crock of wasters left by a certain NW. Whether he will be given the backing of the board is still yet to be seen and with only 26hrs left things aren''t looking good. Fotheringham seems like a good bit of business (if we get him) coz he''s free and has a good bit of experience for a young lad and there''s talk of the fella from st mirren. Now i''m all for buyin good young talent and it''s about time we did, but are they going to be up to the task of getting us through this dog fight that we now find ourselves in and keep us in this division. We desperately need some quality in the squad but i understand that it''s a vicious circle, that because of our league position good players don''t always want to be scrapping at the bottom of the championship. I just wish that we could show a bit of ambition just like when we won the championship and gained promotion. I just don''t know what has happened to the vision of the board because they are the same personnel as then but all ambition seems to have flown out of the window. There is such a real chance of relegation now that what is going to happen if we do go down. Who on earth are we going to sign with enough quality to get us back up? We all know about Notts Forest and Sheff Wed, massive clubs who got sucked down and struggled/still struggling to get up. Earnie, Hucks and Etuhu will all go and what are we left with then, an absolute paperthin squad of over rated players and a bunch of highly rated kids who have no league experience. I just don''t think the board are that bothered. I know Delia loves the club but her drive seems to have gone, especially after her comments about inviting buyers for the club, i''d bet my house on it that she wouldn''t have made those comments two seasons ago. We need a spark to ignite things and maybe a couple of biggish signings will cheer us all up and get things going again, so bring it on PG, ND and DS give us some good news and get us back up where we belong in the Premier (obviously not this season!).
