city-till-i-die 7 Posted April 11, 2009 [quote user="kdncfc"]We need at least 7 points to even stand a chance of getting out of this and with the games we have left it''s a very big ask, for me if we fail to beat Watford on Monday that''s it. It is very harsh on the fans but the board are certainly deserving of relegation, they should be hanging their heads in shame[/quote]then it will be curtains i fear...but until then im trying to stay possitive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thecanaryfan 0 Posted April 11, 2009 We all knew we were likely to go down anyway so I dont get why everyone is so suprised about todays results. In case you hadnt noticed we have been awful for four consecutive seasons now. The reason we are awful is because the board dont invest in players and our boardroom members have the combined IQ of a glass of water. Next season would only be another (probably more) desperate slide towards the drop. I am fed up with eeking my way through every match knowing the club is a laughing stock. I for one couldnt care less if we went down. The chance of celebrating a few wins sounds better than the continous dissapointment I have felt this season. We need to start picking up points again. The only way we will do that is in League One. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJJJ 0 Posted April 11, 2009 Odds are on us going down now I reckon, admittedly if we beat Watford and Forest lose it could all be different, but the fact we''re relying so heavily on other team''s results is a major worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like we''ll be reduced to a team of kids unless some money comes in from somewhere, we will struggle big time if we have to play kids in that division and could even end up in league 2.

[/quote]TCF, are you serious?I hope you are in a serious minority in terms of people who are taking positives out of being relegated to the third tier of english football for the first time in half a century. The demise of the club is more than evident now, and to have people say ''celebrating a few wins sounds better than the continuous dissapointment i have felt this season'' essentially means we may as well be non-league for as much as you care. I hope you consider the clubs image, financial state and actual existence which will fall beside us being relegated. If, that is to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
