Apron J Thick 0 Posted August 27, 2005 Okay - things are looking rough... yeah - very rough.... but are we doing a Sunderland? Dropped like a stone out of the Prem and continued their bad run for a while - only to turn it round and ultimately go up again. Admittedly we''re making it harder but it has been done before...Also, remember when we were 4-1 down against Middlesbrough and all the car-parkers and chip-shoppers crept out and the rest of us rose as one, chests out arms wide and gave one of the most emotional "On The Ball City"s ever - we know the rest - I''ll never forget all the little heads popping up in the gangway as the goals piled in...Anyway - it''s who we are and yes things will have to change but as soon as we start shouting for Worthy''s head then just think - is it time to creep out to the car park or stand up and support as you never have before...

Cheeky Monkey 0 Posted August 27, 2005 No we are just awful at the moment. We''ll be lucky to end up in the top half at this rate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We can''t afford to do that. If we are in this position come Christmas it''ll be bye bye to Ashton, Greeno et al, despite what contract extensions the club churns out to the players..

Rasputin was a C... 0 Posted August 27, 2005 You have to remember that Mick McCarthy wasn''t the manager to get Sunderland relegated from the Prem. The previous manager had done that well before he arrived so the players he had that didn''t have that negative view of him which I sadly feel is what some players at this club have about Worthington. When you watch them during the games they seem to lack confidence on the tactics so maybe the feeling that Worthington can turn things around is not felt by some of our more influencial players.

NavMan 0 Posted August 28, 2005 People say it will be be bye bye Ashton in Jan if we are not up there. Not if he is not banging in the goals for us it wont be. Norwich will prob hang out for 7 mill and no one will pay that for a player with about 6 goals to his name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
