    A realistic view

    Teams dropping points though now. This is the pressure cooker time when the finishing line is starting to appear in the distance. Been seasons when 84 points has been enough for an automatic place. We have 48 with 17 matches to play. If 84 was the magic number that is 36 more points. 11 wins...

    You're lucky, I went to Wouldway Prak.

    Ridiculous! That's a rugby score. Only be a couple of goals in it tops!

    Very true. I recall a couple of months back saying we are 11 points clear of 7th, we have to be assured of a top six place haven't we? Now look how close teams are. Nice to see Walsall and Burton slipping up here and there. If we can bag 2 or 3 wins on the bounce we could be really close to...

    League 1 Today

    Our back four has been hit badly lately, Martin, Turner and then having to bring Ramage in. Hopefully these two lads will steady the ship. Be strong at the back and you will always fancy tour chances in games.

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    This is what I was asking. Sorry if my post was read wrongly. I thought I had made it clear. I simply said when did we lose that belief we had earlier in the season? Nowt about games to come. Just on the back of three defeats, where the effort was not at an acceptable level. And it's different...

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    Yes, very true. Belief only takes you so far. But then you have to say, we too have some very good players for the level we're at, or at least should be! Fleck, Murphy, Cole, Armstrong, JOB, Ricketts, Maddison, Vincelot. When you look at the likes of Burton, you have to ask yourself do they...

    Mean while back in court

    Well the game doesn't kick off until 3. I should just hang around for a few hours if I was you. See if anyone else turns up.

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    See my reply to Hobo. I am talking about now, at this moment in time. The last three games we seemed to have lost belief in being able to win football matches. Of course with a win tomorrow that belief might be instilled again. No-one can deny that, that being unbeaten at home record must have...

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    But those games are in the future, we can't have lost belief in games we haven't played yet. I am talking about having lost belief for now, at this moment. Not saying this is now it for the rest of the campaign, just that at the moment we seemingly have no belief.

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    Well, maybe we haven't, but you would surely have to say it certainly looks like we have. There was no belief from the moment we went 1-0 to Burton and there was a total lack of belief against Scunthorpe. Leicester are winning because they believe they will win every game. This is what lots of...

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    Just listening to 5 Live talking about Leicester and to fans and ex players etc. and so much of their success is being put down to belief. The confidence and belief to think you will win and are invincible. I recall Dalglish saying the same about Blackburn when they won the league. Belief was...

    Mowbray Out

    Yep, you're right. Henderson was terrible this Sunday and even worse next week against Bury and then against Fleetwood in three weeks time, well, words fail me!

    Port Vale (Away) Match Thread

    We have lowered our expectations so much, I now have this down as a 'must get a shot on target, not get beaten 3-0 game.' Baby steps and all that!

    Wow! You must have been tired! Or don't you mean all at the same time?

    New James Maddison Chant ?

    Err, difference is, he is still our player!! All for a bit of banter, but should we be ripping the piss out of a bloke who we want to do his very best for us?

    Darius Henderson

    Yeah, third choice left back wasn't he? And that's for a non-league team. Could someone please dig up the old threads and see how crap we said he was before he pulled on a shirt for us?
