    looking at our next 5 games I can't see us getting a solitary point, this is going to be very very painful and will surely bring an end one way or another to this sorry saga that has dragged on and on;

    Reading (H)
    Villa (A)
    Brighton (A)
    Leeds (H)
    Norwich (A)

    I cannot see any positives at all unless the 6 newbees have hidden talents that will shake football

    I think the two home games will be crucial - and probably the only realistic chance of getting 3 points - but on the other hand, we could get tonked in all five.
    I have a feeling MM will go extremely defensive now until we are safe (IF), especially after last nights debacle.
    Prepare to see plenty of 0-0, 1-0 and 1-1's.
    Out of those five, i'll go with 5 points (beat Leeds, draw with Reading and Villa)

    Most importantly we have to play all of:

    Cardiff (A)
    Burton (A)
    Rotherham (A)
    Forest (A)
    Wigan (H)

    These are the ones where we need to get a majority of wins, as if we don't we probably don't deserve to stay up

    A decent manager would be making plans to try to win these games,but you just know McCarty will set us up to stifle the opposition,hope to not lose and get a spawny goal on the break.No doubt we'll be treated to more games like Lincoln away where we had 7 strung out across the pitch and absolutely not intention of trying to attack,grrrr!

    As much as I hate to say it, I'd rather we continue losing. I'm bored of a decent win every month or two followed by the usual crap. It's the only way I can see change happening. Worst case scenario is we finish around 12th with another dull season to follow.
