    SOD has verbally stated that," No magic wand can be waved to save us ", that is a stark warning that our chances of remaining up are few....

    We are relegation fodder and that's our starting point,if he achieves the miracle brilliant but how long before the doubters start criticising him if we continue losing..?

    We have been warned and should prepare for the drop,hope for the miracle but keep faith with SOD....

    Logically we look odds on to go down and we all have to accept the situation.

    I think the sheer amount of home goals we've conceded along with very poor performances to boot are the main reasons for where we are right now (although the away results have been slightly better), and why the board chose to act the way they did, although I still find it slightly baffling that they let Del sign Kelly last week when this outcome must have been in their minds. What happens to Kelly if S O'D doesnt rate him etc and he has committed to moving to Bristol ?

    My message to everyone is to be prepared for the worst, but you never know, miracles do happen sometimes

    Defence is the obvious area to focus on as I believe with the likes of Baldock, Davies, Stead, Adomah etc. we have the attacking quality to score the goals we need. Yes, there's no magic wand, but just one or two quality defensive reinforcements may provide the bedrock we need to grind out some results.

    Finally! its about time a manager came out and was realistic. Not like del where he said in November that we would finish mid table <doh> SoD's came out and give it to us straight, Fair play to the man <applause> I have more faith in him than I did McInnes so never say never, It can be done.

    It's only 6 points, It's not the end of the world, we could easily stay up

    I don't want to go down like everyone else...but if we go down fighting for every point then the manager has done his job.....That's how I will judge SOD.

    Managers who spout what they think you want to hear are probably not very good, but those who face reality want to be heard.

    Don't critize the poor labrador it's not his fault the thing was compiled by a blind man and his dog - The dog might be called a seeing eye but he doesn't play football so can't judge who to put in the pictures.
