No but more chance of that than a run at the playoffs

Look at the table, we already are in a relegation battle.

The fact that we haven't won a league game since SOUTHEND away back in August is what concerns me.

It's all well and good people saying..."Oh, it's only September, give it time!"..."Oh, it's only October, give it time!" When we get to January will the people still be saying the same thing!?

Fact is, we have been shit for almost ALL of this league season and we've had some of the "easier" ties in the league already. Plenty of games we should've won on paper.

Answer: Yes I am concerned!

Oh yes totally pointless. A thread about the possibilty of a relegation battle for team on the cusp of the relegation battle on that teams football forum. Outrageous :rolleyes:

Perhaps you can give us all a guideline for what you think we should be posting about, fucks sake.Hope it's not that old Keep the Faith Chestnut...because I can give you another of Adams sayings that is more to the point at the moment..Failing to prepare is preparing to fail

Of course it's a concern.Each season,3 teams go up and 4 go down.Like the Grand Old Duke,17 go neither up nor down.

Obviously it is better to be on that top 5/6ths,and a concern that we are not.

You might say i'm crazy but i'm still confident of a top eight finish! We have fairly easy fixtures towards the end of season (March, April). As longs as we can tighten up in defence and start winning at games in the next two months, we should fly up the table, it's still fairly tight.

It is a joke of a thread because there really is no way we are going to get relegated with the team and manager that we have.

19 People who voted yes sums this idiotic website right up.

Arrogant attitudes like that have been shown by fans of Leeds, Leicester and Forest in recent seasons and just who were the idiots at the end of the season?

I don't think we'll go down but neither do I have your rather blind faith that dismisses what could quite feasibly happen with an unsubstantiated put down

over the last two seasons there have been teams in admin who make up half the relagation zone. therefore there are two 'spaces' left. Cant see us being one of the two worst teams in the division

I am as concerned as everyone about team selections but I think the Leeds game will be the turning point. I'd like to think that Micky has now realised that Virgo can't play anywhere but centre back and Hawkins shouldn't be starting.

We will be there or there abouts the top 6 i'd like to think.

i dont think we will. However, stating the bleedin obvious, we need to start winning games at home now....enough of this experimenting bollocks!!

The loanees have to start every game or there is no point them being here.....Virgo and Elphic have to play at Centre backs and we need to get back to playing the ball on the ground.

We have a prospective easy game coming up and we need adams to step up the plate and select a side that will win, not one that resortes to long ball hoofing
