Brum Uni Canary 0 Posted October 5, 2004 Noooooo! This should serve as a wake-up call to the players to start getting wins...West Brom would be a good start, although the international break could be a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZLF 331 Posted October 5, 2004 Altogether now''We are bottom of the league, sing we are bottom of the league!''or ''Re-le-ga-shun Re-le-ga-shun ole ole ole''or''Are we Ipswich in disguise!''or''Going down down down, going down down down'';-)Just remember no team gets relegated by the first week in October and after the fixture list was published we were expected to be bottom after 3 games.A long way to go yet and plenty of time for performances like saturdays to yeild plenty of three points, hopefully starting at the hawtorns now we have remembered how to attack and score.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tumbleweed 106 Posted October 5, 2004 The galling thing is that Pearce was sent off for almost exactly the same tackle that Lauren did on Huckerby when Arsenal came to FCR. Look at them together and I would swear that there is no difference whatsoever. They both brought down the last man running through on goal through use of the arm. Now why do Palace get justice like that when we might have managed to nick a point had Arsenal been down to ten men (OK, still tough but it might just have been doable). Pearce gets sent off, Lauren doesn''t, Holt''s shot hits the woodwork on Saturday and we are bottom.However reflect on the fact that so far away we have played Man Utd, Liverpool, Newcastle and Tottenham and been outplayed in only one of those. At home not so good but the only two games we might have marked down for 3 points would have been Palace and Pompey. Palace at the start was a little bit anti climactic, and perhaps one could excuse the draw, but it was Saturday''s result which was so disappointing.Despite all that we are hardly bottom by a mile and if we can beat WBA it will give confidence for the next few crucial games.

blacko 0 Posted October 5, 2004 Ist thing this morning, turn on the mobile and, there it is, the message from an Ipswich fan, "congratulations, you are officially the strongest team in the league" $$££******))%er Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pyro Pete 2,263 Posted October 5, 2004 There is no need to panic. A win against WBA in a fortnight and we will rocket up the table.Look at the the fixture list for two weeks time:Birmingham v Man Utd Blackburn v Middlesbrough Bolton v Crystal Palace Everton v Southampton Fulham v Liverpool West Brom v Norwich Man City v Chelsea Portsmouth v TottenhamMan City are in 12th place on 8 points. Will they beat Chelsea? Doubt it. Portsmouth to beat in form Spurs? Nope. Southampton take out 3rd place Everton? Not a chance. Will Birmigham halt the Man Utd revival? Can''t see it myself. Fulham defeat Liverpool? Unlikely. Palace to beat Bolton at the Reebok? No.So we can be off the bottom at the first available opportunity. BUT, we need is to start winning. So would the real Norwich City please stand up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fife Canary 0 Posted October 5, 2004 I''m sure that the wins will come. If however we carry on scoring 0.625 points per game then we will finish with 23 points this season.Not depressed yet, but we are sadly missing a proven goalscorer which I appreciate dosern''t come cheap.
