Lets all try to be positive for now, it does no one no good if we moan and bitch about everything, thats not being a sheep, its being a positive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yeovil Town 0 Posted November 5, 2007 You''ll beat Watford for sure, and you have a great manager in Glenn Roeder. Just dont get promoted too soon, I want to see Yeovil play at Carrow Road when we get promoted [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
renegade tootsie 0 Posted November 5, 2007 We could get smashed to bits and relegated, or as a lot of us suspect, we could play to our capabililty and by some miracle get to the play-offs. Anything can still happen.What is essential is that the fans get behind the team and lift them like on Sunday, that we keep the Birmingham guy on loan until the end of the season as he is MILES ahead of our current defenders in terms of quality, and that we get Jimmy Smith playing, he is going to be a big player for us if we can find a place for him.Anything is possible.

shropshire canary 0 Posted November 6, 2007 I''ll just take a whole lot of encouragement and some exciting football moving us to comfortable top half of the table this year, with hopefully a roll into next season tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watch the derby again - two hesitations, two goals conceded. I think he will turn into a good signing when he''s match ready, but he made critical errors on Sunday.

Mister Chops 7 Posted November 6, 2007 Going by Roeder''s track record, and assuming the best case of the 45% win rate he had as Newcastle manager:this would be 32 matches - 14 wins, 9 draws, 9 defeats60 points - mid-table respectabilityI would settle for that right now.And don''t get me wrong, I''d love us to be this year''s Sunderland.

renegade tootsie 0 Posted November 6, 2007 What you need to ''get'' from ''watching'' is that he looks comfortable and not stretched when challenged, goes forward, and instills a confidence that Docherty simply cannot ever achieve. Even Roeder said he added confidence to the defence so obviously you not getting it is a personal thing![quote user="Mook"][quote user="JC"] ... we keep the Birmingham guy on loan until the end of the season as he is MILES ahead of our current defenders in terms of quality ...[/quote]I don''t get this viewpoint at all.

Our defence looked anything but confident on Sunday and were it not for a couple of very good saves from Marshall and the linesman''s flag we could have conceded five.So our defence was a shambles when Doherty was playing (according to most), our goals conceded to games ratio has got worse since Doherty was injured and we looked no more solid through the centre of defence with the addition of a new centre back.
