We are going down

[throbinson]

we still have 39 points to play for, are we down yet no

 

[Giraffe]

48 will do it, and we are capable of at least.

 

[Altered State]

That sounds good in theory, but you're forgetting something very important. If we were 4 points from the play-offs then we would be winning games and taking points on a regular basis. In that situation, making up 4 points would be possible. However we've won 4 games since October, lose EVERY home match, and an injury list as long as your cock.

If nothing had changed at the club I'd agree. I'm putting my faith in a new manager and five loan signings. Guess I'm thinking that past performance is not a guarantee of future failure.

Of course Slade could make no difference whatsoever and the new players could be useless. I'd rather believe the opposite until the mathematics speak for themselves. So yes, if goes to the last game and we have to win 4-0 or something I'll still be posting "we can do this".

Cant see us beating it now im afraid with a makeshift team and new manager! Really gope we can though SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEAGULLS!!!

 

[Seagull]

It's almost a new team. Let's be positive. They were not bad today. We only have to be the fifth shittest team to get to go to Charlton & Southampton rather than Crawley & Burton next season. 6 wins will be enough! Come on let's get behind the lads! They can do it!

Thats one bloody long cock
Anyway, i agree with what your saying. A team pushing for play-offs would be in good form, and would have momentum, sadly we have none whatsoever. We have a team full of loanees, who are probably thinking if we go down then all is fine because they still have their team to go back too(apart from Owusu!). I just think many of that team have a lack of passion, and that may cost us, and i cant see where we are going to get any momentum which could help us put a decent run together.

What worries me is nothing seems to being going for us and I can't recall the last time we had such a bad run of injuries. Each week you look at our teamsheet and it has another three new names on it and I wonder if we have even fielded the fame starting eleven all season!!

What amazes me after this farce of a season is our survival is still technically in our hands which gives us a glimmer of hope.

It certainly does not look good but we cannot give up now and whatever we think of the season we have to pick ourselves up and get behind this team and manager and pray something goes our way and we stay in this division.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I've finally admitted after the full time whistle blew, that we are definitely going to go down now. But the season doesn't end in March, so there is still hope.

So you haven't really finally admitted it then have you?

 

[Russell Slade's hat]

League two football looms large, and on that performance today and last weekends at home to Crewe, thats where we should be,

 

[Yoda]

Ok did not look graet but we had 3 teams within 3 points of us and games in hand.

All the time a team is playing well, games in hand are fine. When things are going bad, most people would want the points on the board.

 

[e77]

I just think the running of the club on and off the pitch has been unprofessional in the last year. The debacle of people trying to collect their tickets for the Barnet game, having to bring in a 4th kit mid season as the other three are blue, letting a manager choose which players to keep then getting rid of him, getting Hart and Mayo back then getting rid of a manger when we had no idea who to replace him with.

Sham, really.

 

[Bluejuice]

How has it all gone so wrong?

SEVENTH last season, and we've only ADDED to the squad since then.

Yes we've had some unfortunate injuries but this situation is an absolute f***ing embarrassment

 

[Tony Le Mesmer]

If by this time next saturday we still have 32 points then we will be needing snookers to stay up. Then we can finally say we are down. And these are two home games so the omens are not good.

 

[SICKASAGULL]

Lets be honest about our situation,
1. We escape relegation so spend another season in this dreadful league
2. Relegated to Div 2, equally poor league
We now have a choice,pack up attending football or find another team to support.
I cant forgive Knight and co for taking away a lifetimes interest in my local team and spoiling so many weekends

What a load of utter nonsense.

 

[herecomesaregular]

Exactly, Dave. None of us want to see it happen but we've got to accept it. Brighton and Hove Albion WILL be playing fourth division football next season. To avoid it we need at least 18, and possibly 20, points from 13 games. We've only managed 32 from 32 so far and we're going backwards. It's just not going to happen. Pains me to say it but our season is over.

you talk in absolutes in your CAPITAL letters. how do you know the f***ing future you twat. we are in trouble but what sort of fan throws in the towel so early? piss off

 

[The Brighton Ace]

I feel we're going down, not much hope after today. I think everyone knew that the importance of todays game in that it presented us with a good hope of survival if we won. I'll still be going to games home and away getting behind the lads but I don't feel it will make much difference to change to almost inevitable.
