let’s see what they do at Millwall first although not very optimistic as I’m sure we haven’t won there for years if ever.
that said I am prepared for league 1 and all that brings but for now I just want a bit of pride back and they really need to break that awful home duck before the season is out.So because we have changed our manager the same bunch of players will immediately transform themselves into great ones overnight????
I admire your (misguided) optimism but face it we are relegated albeit not mathematically I grant you but to expect this dire bunch to suddenly hit blistering form overnight is beyond comic book expectations!
I’m sorry but it isn’t going to happen and pointless pontificating about the ridiculous notion that it might,face it ,it isn’t that bad when you do.What a transformation that was on Friday. The football was 100% better, far more attempts, far more possession and a genuine desire to win. It was great to see Penannt and Bongo run the length of the field to celebrate the first goal with the latics fan.
By all means continue with all the negativity if you want, but leave others to hang on with a shred of hope thank you very much.It may be long shot but I’m not going to throw the towel in until we are at the mathematical impossible stage.
Let’s hope the manager and players feel like me and not like you and the other cup half empty brigade, that jumped on here when we went 1-0 down on Friday, but didn’t come straight back on when we equalised.
[/quote]Like you I would be delighted if we suddenly string four straight wins and stay up but it isn’t going to happen and how empty can a cup be when you haven’t seen a home win for seven f***ing months???
face it just face it !!!So because we have changed our manager the same bunch of players will immediately transform themselves into great ones overnight????

I’m sorry but it isn’t going to happen and pointless pontificating about the ridiculous notion that it might,face it ,it isn’t that bad when you do.Odds on that happening will be very long –
My predictionMillwall 1 point
Brighton 1 point
Wolves 0 points
Brentford 0 pointsNo chance of a miracle now we are down End of!
So it’s onwards and upwards is it with a rookie chairman’and a rookie manger with a combined age of just 55???
the whole thing smacks of a club not just in turmoil but in very serious decline and I seriously will not be surprised if we are not staring at another relegation in 12 months time and beyond that is too scary to comprehend.
where does it all end is anybody’s guess but these decisions defy logic and he certainly will be taking us back to were he found us in double quick time based on the events of the previous days.
I hope I’m very very wrong!The Fulham home game sticks out for me as we had been unbeaten at home all October and had just beaten Derby away.
A last minute equaliser changed the course of this season and it would be interesting to see what would have happened if we had won this game.Let’s hope Fulham away is the next turning point then.
C’mon Tics Men.[/quote]10 out of 10 for positive thinking !
In to the third season of the year. We only win in the summer, we only win in the summer. At home that is. Can we have a springtime home victory or will we have to wait till August almost 12 months that will be. Can never ever remember anything as disgraceful as this record.It’s awful and I can’t see it ending until the club sorts out the mess in the summer.
Big rebuild job needed and I just want the rot to stop because league 2 isn’t without probality.It was a very good effort by all the contributors some very good articles,nice to see it back after so long.
I have a good idea for a contribution so i think i will get out the alphabet book and start.results from 93-94

This is the worst ever season since we came into the football league simple as that!
Blame lies with one person!Just read the Rugby post and they have a relegation pull out???????
incredible and it is full of sound bites like this.
Don’t forget they have tickets to sell at £20 a chuck so our dressed like a car salesman Manager has to come out with stuff like this to make sure a few are sold.
he can hardly say ” it’s over,we are f***ed ” at this stage can he?Not much more you can say other than expect to see empty seats here there and everywhere.
the TVs companies won’t like that,praying that Brentford and Bournemouth get up this year,that will piss them all off!Only ever 5 winners of it since it started in 1992 ,23 years ago!
Chelsea,Man utd,Man City ,Blackburn and ArsenalIn the 23 years prior to 1992 we had 7 different champions Leeds,Arsenal,Liverpool,Everton,Aston Villa,Nottingham Forest, Derby County .
Not many more I grant you but check out some of the unfashionable names like Forest and Derby and also remember Forest won it straight after a promotion in 1977-78 season.
it is overrated for sure but interesting especially when a struggling club like Burnley turns over a team like City and it would be nice to see little clubs like Bournemouth and Brentford get up there next season although the TV bosses would hardly relish paying 10 million a game to screen those two would they?Very witty tez I will give you that I presume you were one of the danny dyer Fila and tachini set giving it the bigun behind the police line?
It was good policing they stopped them near the fence so they couldn’t go anywhere however I’m sure the club will pick up the tab because the policing was on the stadiums land.
what alternative did they have?
Let them freely move into the home supporters so they could bully and intimidate and then cause a massive crush as the innocents tried to move away.
Very sad that people behave in this manner.
