    ....I'm as disappointed as the next person about our recent run of poor form and results, but we are still 4th in the league and punching above our weight. The lads and manager have put in a great effort overall......

    .....and yet there are Rangers fans all over the net and social media tonight asking that Warbs be sacked.

    I effing despair.

    Punching above our weight should mean not losing to the team in bottom position

    Anyone can lose to anyone in this league. That was indeed a s**t result but.....that's the bit you comment on?

    Would you like Warbs replaced after a few poor results and with us sitting 4th?

    Punching above our weight should mean not losing to the second bottom team
    Or not beating the fifth bottom team

    We fans love a moan when things aren’t working out well. But MW, the players and the board have turned things around.
    We are in a bloody good place now, while other clubs are all over the place financially and as teams.
    We keep improving year on year (and we’ve waited long enough for that!) and credit to everyone for doing that on the budget we have.

    PS - sh1t run, we need to sort it out! :emoticon-0105-wink:

    We have no god given right to beat the teams below us....everyone in this leaguebis fighting to either stay in it, or get out if it. If you don't bring your A game each and every match, then you'll get punished, which is what we've found out in the last couple of weeks.

    Those calling for Warbs head are delusional. We have a small squad and it's getting stretched thin with injuries and suspensions.

    Anyhow, Punching above your weight means that you are in a position that is better/higher than you expected to be. It doesn't mean that because you are in that position you should therefore beat any team below you on any given day.

    Apparently stuff aimed at Charlie and his family today. Any truth in this?

    Every team has had a dip in form and poor run, even the f*cking Ruperts, this is ours. It's how we respond and break the run that will define our season, hopefully we'll put it right, we're still in a strong position and need to show support not backbiting. Some of the online shyte is unbelievable...

    God given right
    Maybe not
    But we should be beating the Cannon fodder

    Yep, that type of stuff is really poor by any standards. It’s ok for us fans to be peeved about our recent form but that type of abuse is never warranted…… never.

    Crazy. Especially after a game in which we showed considerable improvement, deserved to win and would have done with half competent Officials.

    Really!
    That's clearly ridiculous.

    I suspect he has limitations, which we may be seeing, but there's no doubting what a great job he's done overall.

    I just get a little frustrated with some of his decisions around selection and line ups, but I've never been a happy clappy, never criticise type of fan.

    Overall, Warbs has done brilliantly.

    I despair.

    We do have some complete morons as so called fans.

    Hope most fans are rallying round Charlie and his family.
