    A realist in this time of gloom

    Ha, ha! Notts County who won last night? Luton who won last night? Lincoln who won last night and are unbeaten in 6 matches? And Accrington Stanley who won again last night and who have won 8 out of 9 matches? Okey dokey.

    Should Mark Robins be sacked?

    I'm here all week.

    Plus we didn't sell the crown jewels in January. A lot of us were half expecting McNulty, Willis and Bayliss to go.

    FFS! WE ARE STILL ONLY 3 POINTS FROM THE PLAYOFFS!!!

    5 defeats out of the last 6 away games. That should send massive alarm bells throughout the coaching staff. We are not even managing draws. 5 defeats in 6 away matches and just 3 goals scored in those 6 matches.

    FFS! WE ARE STILL ONLY 3 POINTS FROM THE PLAYOFFS!!!

    So, yes, just 3 points off the playoffs. The next 2 games are away and are against 2 of the in form, best of the top 7 teams. Our last 6 away matches: 0-2 Morecambe 0-1 Port Vale 1-0 Carlisle 0-1 Exeter 1-2 Forest Green 1-2 Colchester It's all well and dandy saying we are just 3 points...

    Throwing the season away

    Hands on hearts now, did any of us think that with 14 games still left we would be saying the chance of automatic promotion has gone? I am stunned that we are now 9 points adrift and I do think that, that is it for us and it is chances blown. Very saddening.

    Should Mark Robins be sacked?

    And like Nick says, we set up defensively, go a goal down and continue to play defensively making it really difficult to get back into matches. When we went a goal down today and we're playing poorly, Robins should have changed things. Didn't start attacking until the second half and then...

    No, it most certainly isn't over. If we lose the next three then I think it will be. There is still time to change things round.

    FFS! WE ARE STILL ONLY 3 POINTS FROM THE PLAYOFFS!!!

    Totally agree and only just over two weeks ago we were just 1 point off the automatic places. It is now 9 and looking a bridge too far all of a sudden. Massive fall from where we were.

    FFS! WE ARE STILL ONLY 3 POINTS FROM THE PLAYOFFS!!!

    No one is saying to give up. We can't give up as a team and we shouldn't as supporters. Something needs to change sharpish or we will indeed be saying it's only 4 points and then only 6 points and then we'll it's 9 points, but still mathematically possible. 3 points might as well be 10 unless...

    Someone also phoned in to say we overpass it all the time. Wonder when the last time it was that he went to a game? If anything we are lumping it up far too early.

    Been exactly my argument all season. Do any of us honestly believe if we got to the playoffs we would win through? More than likely be the Accrington scenario all over again. I have absolutely no faith that we would rise to the occasion. We are out-muscled and out-thought too often and it was...

    FFS! WE ARE STILL ONLY 3 POINTS FROM THE PLAYOFFS!!!

    It was just a single point off the automatics just over two weeks ago. Now it is 9. As I said a few days ago, posts like this have the ring of the Mowbray season. We are going backwards at the moment. Yep, it is only 3 points, but there is a trend developing and we have now just lost 3 games...

    Should Mark Robins be sacked?

    I can't see any sense in sacking him now. Not unless there is a really good manager out there waiting right now. If we lose the next three games (Mansfield, Wycombe and Lincoln) then there is a case I suppose to get someone in in readiness for next season. It's all looking rather hopeless at...

    A whole sentence would be nice. I can't stomach another collapse. We need to turn this round before our season is over a lot earlier than we expected and hoped for.

    Obviously not, but we have to make sure it isn't. As I was saying a week ago it's trends and this is a worrying trend. 3 very tough games coming up. Wycombe away, Mansfield away and Lincoln at home. We don't win any of them and we could be way adrift.

    Lucky for us our next two games are away at Wycombe and away at Mansfield.
