    This season

    Around a week ago some posters were worrying that we were getting cut adrift from the pack above us. I think one poster said if this or that happened last weekend we could be 7 points adrift. I know we are not that likely to get anything against Norwich, but we have already beaten the top team...

    Wilson should play on Saturday to give us time to look for a decent option until Jan. Camp doesn't sound like a good option to me. I know money is an issue but there seems to be several good keepers without a club. I would be surprised if there isn't at least one who would come on the cheap...

    What about a keeper without a club? Maybe Vorm or Nyland if either of them is still without a club

    Maurice Setters R.I.P

    I thought it was a league game as well, couldn't remember even who we were playing, but I thought I remembered being disappointed at dropping points. I was stood by the half way line at pitch level opposite the main stand and saw it very clearly. I only remember where I stood because I always...

    It's amazing how much playing surfaces have improved since those days. Even the biggest grounds could be like a ploughed field mid-winter.

    Can anyone remember the game when he tried to pass back to the keeper, the ball stuck in a puddle, we conceded, and lost the game IIRC. He looked devastated.

    These are unusual times though. a team going into administration this season could not necessarily expect a reasonable outcome, and there could a mass exodus of their players in January

    2020s remaining fixtures for us and our rivals

    14 points looks a realistic possibility from that lot but so does 17 or 18. I think we are good enough to beat either Cardiff or Derby, and maybe take a point off either Millwall or Preston. A lot will depend on our injury situation. We will be in big trouble if we don't take that sort of points...

    Let's see what happens on wednesday against Cardiff, we are at home against 15th in the league. I have my thoughts about Friday night's performance but we were in a strange and unique position wherby we were playing our landlords, on their ground with them the away team, and with them in a...

    Paul Cook

    I always remember Paul Cook as a solid but ininspiring player when he played for us. I assume he is a better manager than he was a player.

    As this thread is called the Positivity thread, it occured to me that we should take heart from Reading. I don't know if they have had lots of injuries or what but something has gone drastically wrong for them, and over the last 4 games their results have been worse than ours. It just proves how...

    The problem with that is that Reading have lost the last 4 games including against us, conceding 13 goals in the process. So it's obvious they were in a false position, and will be close to the relegation zone by the end of the year if they keep this form up. You could still argue it was our...

    Luton did even better and took 17 points from the last 10 games, post-lockdown. The lockdown and how it affected things is a massive clue to how they both stayed up

    Barnsley took 15 points from the last 10 games last season, that's how they stayed up
