canary cherub 1 Posted November 14, 2008 I don''t know, but I''m more worried now than at the same time last season, even though we were in the bottom three. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blahblahblah 2 Posted November 14, 2008 Nope, I still think there are at least 3 teams worse than us in this league. Donny, Forest, and pick any 1 from Charlton, Palace, Watford, Barnsley, Southampton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ncfcstar 287 Posted November 14, 2008 No, there are 3 worse teams, and by the end of the season I am convinced we will be mid-table, despite the problems behind the scenes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hughesy 0 Posted November 14, 2008 I dont think we will but i do think that we will finish in the bottom half of the table though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Humphrey 13 Posted November 14, 2008 [quote user="GJP"][quote user="Graham Humphrey"]Yes.[/quote]You don''t really mean that do you?[/quote]Yes, I''m afraid at the moment I think we will. We are just far too lightweight right now, we don''t score enough goals and we have very little strength in depth. Not to mention a total lack of confidence and our awful away record.I would definitely say, looking at our squad, we should have enough to avoid it but when some of the loan players go back (especially Lita, we must make the most of him while he is here - his goals have already earned us five points), they need to be replaced but even then there''s still not a great deal there in terms of numbers and quality. If we really have no money to play with at all then it will be very difficult. And Roeder does appear to be losing the plot very rapidly when it comes to tactics and team selections which hardly helps, either.I just think we look so directionless, leaderless and spineless on the pitch - generally the moment something goes against us we fall to pieces, more so away from home - very few players want to take responsibility and I doubt many of them really care, whether they are loans or not. I also think Roeder may be losing a few of them but I think the majority simply aren''t very good. We are sleepwalking into relegation and this has been coming for a few years, it''s the result of a board not investing enough into the playing side and managers not doing well enough with what they have got.

Mister Chops 7 Posted November 14, 2008 Yes, I think we will, for the same reason Graham outlined in a previous post.Perhaps I''ve caught the atmosphere of lethargic despair, or perhaps I can simply detect it, but I can''t remember things being this bleak at the ground or on the pitch. Anything less than a win tomorrow and the vultures will be circling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,265 Posted November 14, 2008 It''s going to be tighter than our non-existent player budget.....We cannot afford to drop points at home, as our away form is dire.I think we''ll be more closer to relegation - than finishing mid-table.....

No, and I wasn''t considering Watford and Charlton, I was however, considering Notts Forest, Southampton and Doncaster.So I don''t care about Watford and Charlton, and I wish some of you would bloody show some flipping faith in our team, it''s go so defeatist on here now it''s unbelievable.

Stevie Wonder 0 Posted November 14, 2008 No.Any team that can batter the clear leaders by 5-2 as enough in the locker to avoid relegation. Home form will be the key and we are starting to put that right. The current crop of injuries and suspension may force Roeder into playing the side that we all want!I think we will continue to hover just above the drop zone and finish around where we did last year. Not great I know but the best we can hope for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
