    Huddersfield beat Birmingham. Into the bottom three. Can we make it over the line ? Games are running out. Need a huge result tomorrow.

    I really hope so. Unthinkable that we might drop another league after such good times. If we can beat Boro and get the belief going that would just give us a fighting chance.

    Nah, we're ****ed. McCann is clueless. Hope I'm wrong and the players will do something despite Terry's best efforts.

    No, we've been heading this way for 2 or 3 seasons now, Nigel did a good job keeping us up the last 2 season, but this was always on the cards unless there is nothing short of a miracle we are doomed.

    I do thing the decisions in January have cost us. Ehab got greedy, thinking we've enough points to be safe. Its ok to sell Bowen & Grosicki but you've got to get decent replacements. We never and its cost us, we'll go down.

    Also I think if we had a better manager, even with Ehab's crap decisions in January, we'd be mid table.

    Wigan despite the points deduction are on a run of form and will still finish above us .. all the other teams down there with us are playing hard to survive and getting points .. us on the other hand are like a puppy rolling over to have our belly tickled. The clueless way we are being run from owners to manager suggests nothing other then being rock bottom come the end of the season .. again like others I am wanting to be proven wrong.. a win tonight may give us enough belief to go on a similar run .. but I just cant see it sadly.

    Was just thinking this whilst looking at our remaining fixtures. Every team we're up against have got something to play for. Automatics, Top 6 or survival.

    Sadly, I think this is absolutely the position we are in, on all counts.

    If they play like the first half against Birmingham and the first ten minutes against Charlton we can escape..
    We need to get much tighter on wingers, crossing the ball.

    Sadly our form since the New Year does not suggest we have the ability to grind out a couple of wins but why oh why do we have to continue with the same system of play when it is not delivering. It’s nothing short of pathetic in management terms. Can’t we mark up man to man and defend a lead. A win tonight and we have a chance. Without it I think we are done. Terry labelled us as a fighting side so what’s happened to that. Can’t we battle it out any more even when two goals up. Why not.

    Pete Hook wrote a book about the Hacienda called How Not To Run A Nightclub. Ehab could write How Not To Run A Football Club.

    No and we don't deserve to stay up either, other teams in relegation zone playing for survival, wer'e just making up the numbers. With the currant squad and manager I wouldn't be surprised to see us relegated again next season.
