mrs miggins 0 Posted April 27, 2014 yeah we''ve finally lost in number of games at the wrong time. The players and the board have a lot to answer for imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,359 Posted April 27, 2014 Agree with the Butler. As similar to the last time we dropped out of the big time - too little done and far too late. We still have a chance but we''ve only got ourselves to blame Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MancCanary 0 Posted April 27, 2014 Doesn''t look likely now does it :(I have to say, despite our lack of luck at times, its hard to say we are not one of the 3 worst teams in the league and that we thoroughly deserve to be in the bottom 3. If we stay up via some sort of miracle, then we will deserve it - as that''s how the game works. But in terms of spirit and ability, we look like the worst team. I think I would feel prouder as a Sunderland fan, a Fulham fan and even a Cardiff fan - to me all those teams have had bigger, better and more impressive results than us. I think all 3 of those have won some games by 3 or 4 goals and actually hammered a couple of opponents.. whereas we''ve only won by 2 goals once or twice, and we''ve not thrashed anyone. It also feels like all 3 of them have beaten more of the top sides than we have - whilst we have only beaten spurs, who have been very inconsistent this season. All quite negative from me i know, but there''s been so little to be proud of. I too am now feeling some anger and resentment towards the board for sticking with hughton, and it hurts to see our club failing again so soon after such success. But I still feel this board have achieved much more than any other in the 20 years I''ve been supporting city, and I will keep faith in them for another couple of seasons. One mistake compared to the 2 promotions and 3 premiership seasons they''ve given us means they deserve it in my opinion. PS Adams shouldn''t get the job in my opinion. No matter what league we''re in, we need more experience and a bigger name to reflect our stature as a club that''s been in the premiership for 3 seasons. Let him assist an experienced manager and learn from him before jeopardising his career at city. OTBC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
