Goal difference has dropped by 12 in just over 3 weeks.
Said it for months. We are frugged.
Evatt not the man but Sadler not paying the Wellens compo ££ is going to cost him even more.
He needs to go.
9 games left we need 16pts.
We have Baadiff Stevenage Reading all to play away from home.
We are frugged.

If we assume we will get f**k all in the remaining away games then the only chance is winning all of our home games.

Possible but highly unlikely and may well not be enough to clamber our way out. One thing is for certain is that it has to start by beating Burslem FC on Tuesday (as the goal difference will then take another pummelling at Baardiff on Saturday)

I think I’m clutching at straws and relegation will be confirmed well before we go to Reading…
 
We're a airy fairy football club. No hope. No progress.This club is run on bullshit and suits full of nothing but their own importance.

Sadly Lakes you will be right
 
Have to admit I went to bed at the end of the 1st half, the football was appalling and not in the slightest bit entertaining. Two sides just lumping the ball in to nowhere, no flow no tactics just dire, dull and abysmal.

Suggest they give Ravazoli the No 1 shirt until the end of the season can't be worse than BPF. How did we become this shit?
 
If only we had paid the Compo For Wellens back in October, I don’t think we would have been in this mess.

I didn’t want Evatt and it’s not all his fault, he was left an absolute mess by Bruce in terms of lack of fitness, mentality (which hasn’t really improved) and just general all round shite show.

Evatt has clearly not won this squad of spineless cowards over either but I think with Wellens we’d have had better results and maybe a better January window, have any of the January signings made a real positive contribution? There’s also the Scott Banks discussion, would Wellens have found a way to get him involved?

Orient have a small budget compared to us and look likely to finish above us for the second season running in this league, despite losing key loanees from the play off team last season.

Why oh why did we not just give Orient what they wanted for Wellens, who by all accounts was keen to come here!!

We became this shit when Critchley took over and told the team to fuck around with it at the back and then hoof it forward.

(I know Sexy will disagree with me; but that's a healthy forum!)
 
Fans have to take some accountability for this.
Its business. Quitchley left us to go to Villa and the club had no succession plan in place.
He came back and the majority couldnt forgive him.
Took us to within 45mins of a play off place (we would have won that too Oxfraud were fcukking awful) and lose the first home game to Stockport and fans are screaming for his head.
One thing people cant dispute at least his players knew what position they were playing, what formation we had too.
Its been successive shitshows since.
Sadler must regret bowing to fans desires when he binned him
Bruce was awful, stole a wage.
I have tried to give Ebatt every opportunity in my head. He's had my support but last week to say Wiggun was a point gained and the objective was not to lose was the final straw.
5th bottom at home and he sets up and plays for a sodding point...
They subsequently got stuffed at home 3 zip 3 days later.

Yesterday was turgid.
PF not wearing a cap ffs...
Its basics.
Evatts lost the dressing room.
Casey clearly not interested, the only creative player, in Morgans absence, Clarkson sat on the bench and meanwhile our second top scorer is tearing it up over at t'tykes....

Evatt has to go, give Thommo the gig until the end of the season and clear everyone out in that coaching staff except Thommo.
Banks, Dobbie - stealing a living.

Despite his mistakes, I don't think we can blame BPF, solely. He doesn't pick himself. Every team seeking value in the market needs to tread carefully when it comes to goalkeepers. If we want consistent success we need to have a good goalkeeper. Good goalkeepers are scarce, look at Chelsea's mess compared to Arsenal who have two top notchers. I've no idea where and how we can get a good goalkeeper but it must be priority now on the planning list for next season.

The manager and the coaching staff must be accountable for what we then see on the pitch, after players are signed for whatever period. "Bring back Dobbie" is silly for all sorts of reasons, primarily because he is part of a failing coaching scheme. I'm not sure why Tommo has been persuaded to pay a visit but I can't see him singlehandedly turning round a system where players suffer injuries regularly, fail to pass the ball correctly and consistently, defend set pieces as if it is part of their basic ability. Neither can I see him staying in whatever position next season. I've no idea who are good or below par coaches but clearly it takes time and money to attract good ones rather than those learning their trade.
