pete 319 Posted October 8, 2023 Relegation seriously no chance, promotion/play offs seriously an impossibility. But where could we end up, mid table for sure above or below mid table? If we continue in this vein it will be lower. Wagner cannot make us solid, the defence is error ridden and the midfield seemingly unable to assist. As for our current fit forwards there are no goals coming from that direction. The next two home fixtures are against two teams showing form as ours evaporates, two defeats appear nailed on. And with our travails away from Carrow Rd points will be extremely difficult we shall fall away rapidly from the encouraging start. Next possible points 5th Nov to hapless Blackburn on a terrible run but will it be again come Norwich yet again. Getting rid of Wagner will not improve the squad, but may improve the tactics. And will certainly improve my demeanour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,537 Posted October 8, 2023 I know my stats I'll have you know. Statistically speaking we've lost 4 games this season. If you translate that over 46 games we will have duck all points come May. Don't say it couldn't happen because when we go into administration and get docked 17 points it could.

They are great stats NN. Did you know the average human has less than 2 legs? I’ll leave that with you . Got to paint a shed roof before the winter. PS best not to mention 1990’s game shows.

I don’t feel quite so bad . Going up up up Just for the record there is of course a chance of relegation. Currently oddschecker has it at 100 to 1 or 1%.

Statistics say that 31% of accidents in the home happen in the living room. 34% of adults sleep with a stuffed animal, blanket or other sentimental object as their comfort object. So that's a little over one in three of this threads contributors. Who's going to own up to the cuddly blue tractor... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think we'll stay up 🙄 Without our first choice front 2, arguably our best CB and one or two others that'd give us genuine options in Nunez and Sainz.

Monty13 2,234 Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) We are a shadow of our recent previous Championship sides, but still nowhere near a relegation candidate. With personnel we currently have injured returning we will have more than enough. Edited October 8, 2023 by Monty13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted October 9, 2023 We look very unlikely to either go up or down. We look like a bang average mid table team making up the numbers. Boring in other words. It is just possible we collapse like the tail end of last season and flirt with relegation but I doubt it- we did at least put some wiser older heads into the team. what we didn’t do was buy quality to boost the team. The older players look tired when playing more than one game a week - and performance then drops. Our CB are struggling against young quick attackers as at Plymouth Bottom line - a huge regression within five seasons and we can now pronounce that the opportunities we had to progress as a club were wasted because smiths held on too long and the takeover is happening too slowly. We are now going through the doldrums again - closer to Roeder era than the Farke one. Plus ca change! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldy09 156 Posted October 9, 2023 with experience old players we should be at least competing - but I realised that buying these types of players don't always work- we need to build from younger players ie Rowe, even if we do end up in the lower half at least we can see ideas what the board are doing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The squads mid table, it just needs someone capable of achieving that in charge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are missing our two main forwards, our key signing in Sainz (Webbers words having watched him train with the group before injury), an option of adjusting the midfield with Nunez, and we are 7th. And our home form has been good this season. Difficult games upcoming and so long as fans don't start supporting Leeds because Farke is their manager in a couple weeks time (looking at you Lakey) we stand half a chance. Ultimately we are on the same points as Southampton and 2 behind Leeds who both have significantly stronger squads than ours when it's fully fit let alone with the injuries. Hmmm..
