    Which team will show up at Brighton?

    We know we can't actually win the cup, it's just a nice flight of fancy and some coffers into the club. We know we are getting knocked out at some point. Our bread and butter is the league and we have to get out of this league. It's imperative.

    Yeah, I picked up on that too. Suddenly we are mentally weak? Not sure that's the sort of label you want to be throwing out there at the players.

    Its a Mans League

    Has anyone else come across an opposition defender the same size as DKE? Even just 3 or 4 inches taller?

    Are you saying Tom Bayliss is a cubic zirconia?

    Everyone agrees with Nick once at some point. You throw enough shit about and some of it is going to stick eventually.

    Its a Mans League

    That is so true. I see teams up here and their players look like man mountains next to ours.

    And if we go a goal down early it could get very messy.

    Should Mark Robins be sacked?

    Yep and get in Sammy Lee from Everton as his assistant, merely for the simple fact that my missus is very old fashioned and we have loads of these around the house. I hate them, but she would be very happy to have another Doyle Lee about.

    Bottlejob

    And too late. You can't suddenly start playing with half the match already gone and you already 1 goal down.

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

    Yup. That's it in a nutshell. How many keepers have had absolute blinders against us this season? We simply are not creating anywhere near enough chances to consistently win matches.

    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.

    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.
