    Ok, imagine the scene, We (The City supporters) have hired out for 1 hour the skittle alley at the White Hart in Midsomer Norton, invited are the whole City squad, Del and coaching staff, SL and sexy.... but not to play skittles, but for a chat and get to the bottom of where we are going wrong, We have a few 'wise' heads in the team so after a few pints of Black Rat some home truths should come out. When Ipswich scored their third today did Brett shout out to Richard Foster 'Frank Foster is more useful than you'....

    Einstein is quoted as having said that if he had one hour to save the world he would spend fifty-five minutes defining the problem and only five minutes finding the solution.
    This quote does illustrate an important point: before jumping right into solving a problem, we should step back and invest time and effort to improve our understanding of it.

    What would you ask? What changes would you suggest?

    Me today as Chopra scored....

    I don't believe anything can or will change this season unless we recruit yet more loanees to start covering for the injuries we've got.

    After the usual and expected honeymoon period of a new manager arriving wore off, we're now hurtling towards L1 at an increasing rate of knots. Coventry, at least at home, have a decent record recently and if they beat Palace on Tuesday and we lose to Lesta we'll be in the bottom 3.

    Our form, home and away is the worst in the division, and the sheer volume of goals being shipped is abysmal. In fact it's only the points we gained when Del first arrived that's keeping us from propping up the rest.

    It's all very very depressing at the moment from players attitude, results, performances, the never ****ing ending stadium abortion, attendances, and I stand by my prediction made a few weeks ago that we will fail to pick up a single point from our remaining away games. We're that bad.

    My friends, it pains me to say it, but I think that without a miracle happening, we're destined for relegation, becaue I believe that we're the worst team in the league at the moment.

    I'm sure if Del could figure that one out, we wouldn't be in the **** now.........

    They started to believe that they were in charge again and stopped playing with the passion that they had when Del arrived.
    Bit like they done with the previous management.
    When Del first came here you could hear all the players talking to and encouraging each other. Now it is back to silence or snipping at each other.
    Del has only got in loans so come summer he can then get rid of the lot and start again. Because I'm starting to wonder if any of them are up for a fight!

    The teams below you all dropped points yesterday so its not a complete disaster! As an Ipswich supporter I have suffered my share of humiliation this season and to be honest you have caught us on our best run of form this season. From where I was sitting your team looked completely devoid of any confidence and the heads visibly dropped as soon as we scored the first. Steady was an absolute work horse but he was feeding on scraps all afternoon with long balls being pumped up to him leaving him to fight with our Centre Backs for the headers and knock downs. You haven't beaten us at Portman Road in 34 years so it was always going to be a hard game for your guys. Good luck for the rest of the season <ok>
