    ...knowing that pretty much every game we play will not mean anything.......

    A few questions:-

    Do we get a parachute payment and if so HOW MUCH?
    Will we keep all our players under 28years old and get rid of the rest
    Will we play our youngsters more often
    How much do you think our season ticket will go down by..30%?
    Will look forward to the local derbies..Yeovil, Exeter and Cheltenham and Swindon maybe?
    Carlisle is 278 miles away..BUT AN EASY ENOUGH DRIVE ALL MOTORWAY except for the last couple of miles


    MERRY CHRISTMAS ANYWAY....

    Blimey a bit negative.
    When I played sport one thing I never did was give up.
    We are not down yet.
    We need to get behind the boys in our next 2 homes games - this is when they need us most.
    It's easy to support a winning team - it's now that we need to lift them, inspire them - remember Coventry last year, the GJ run of losing games - that's the support we need to give now
    COYR!!

    I look at it this way,we have 4 games between the 22nd Dec and the 1st of Jan,12 points,2 home,2 away,if we get 12 points paradise,9 points bloody good,6 points happy,4 points minimum and we already have 1 point from an awkward away team,so far,so good...

    Up the City......

    in the past 3 seasons the team played 23 in 24th has gone down
    the team in 23rd 2 from 3 have gone down
    the team in 22nd 2 from 3 have gone down

    7 of the 9 teams in bottom 3 have gone down..............now would be a good time to invest some money on who goes down..........


    ........Question is can we buck the trend.......................

    The way i look at it is 3 teams from the bottom 5 are going down now that there is now a gap forming between the bottom 5 and the other teams.
    Its all close so its anyones guess and could go down to the last game of the season.

    I have always said u cant play stead as a lone striker which Del again tried and Stead had enough chances to have won that game and even with 5 defenders and defensive midfielders we still couldnt keep a clean sheet.
    Its tough times at the club but every season we get out of it so we have to keep faith that teams around us fall down the table.
    We have half a season to do something. Always said that u judge a manager on results and the players he buys. So far it would mean i wouldnt judge del very highly as he fails on both but lets see what he does in Jan

    The way I look at it, whatever happened before is meaningless. Lies. damn lies and statistics in fact. Why don't you analyse what happened to Hull in the play off year instead...

    A few new signings in the right areas and the first half of the season will soon be forgotten, in fact, the revival starts on Boxing Day...
