Timmah 0 Posted October 2, 2012 That''s it. You''ve convinced me. I''m sending back my season ticket and I''m going to step off the nearest tall building. You actually revel in this don''t you? Look at the avatar and the constant doom-mongering, I''m beginning to think that you enjoy it more when things aren''t going well and there is a name for people like that.

Yobocop 1,105 Posted October 2, 2012 How can you hush it up? It''s there in black and white We still have another 32 games although I suppose it''s too easy to jump on the ''doom and gloom'' bandwagon isn''t it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morty 0 Posted October 2, 2012 No, people attack you because you are a troll idiot.QPR and Liverpool have also had their worst starts ever, theres a lot of it about.And frankly its just another boring stat trotted out by Sky Sports to stir the pants of tedious doom-mongers.

Jim Smith 2,365 Posted October 2, 2012 Load of nonsense really. Under Worthington we did not win til the 14th game so c ome back to me after 14 games if we haven;t won and then it will be our worst start. Worth noting that despite not winning a game til the 14th game and not winning away all season that season survival was still in our own hands on the last day of the season so it just goes to show that we should not be panicking about not winning after 6 (or even 8) games.Looking at our fixtures I think we will have at least 3 wins after 14 games. If we haven''t then I will start to panic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gingerpele 0 Posted October 2, 2012 So Wiz, will you be heading the ''Hughton out'' march at the Arsenal game?Maybe you should get a giant banner done, and lay it out on the middle of the pitch for everyone to see.

Also, there is a lot of evidence that changing managers may make a very shortterm difference but ordinarily makes little or no long term difference to the team''s performance. I accept that Lambert was a very extraordinary exception to that but the greater truth is that the team what it was under Worthy and it was the fourth successor who turned it round. McNally is not stupid. He appointed Hughton for various reasons and to a plan. If he stops believing in Hughton then things will happen but he sees the man regularly and has much more idea than us. We have no choice but to leave it in McNally''s hands and see how it develops but given McNally''s ability, I''m actually content with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hughton was very much McNally''s appointment, creating a bit of a conundrum for those who have deified our Chief Executive so far. If Hughton is such a disaster the buck stops at an inconvenient place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
