    Just wondering where this new found belief came from

    Agree. The defence of late has been even more worrying hasn't it. That first goal of theirs on Saturday was truly a comedy of errors. Awful header by Clarke, followed by a terrible swipe by Wood, followed by a lame header from Clingan. If they ever remake the Keystone Kops then the Ricoh...

    Crunching the numbers - why we are almost certainly down now

    We are still going to need at least 6 or 7 wins though I think. Massive ask.

    Hoffman

    Aren't people forgetting that Hoffman is a City supporter? I can't see how Hoffman and co could possibly be any worse than Sisu!.

    Its all down to tactics. Thorn out

    We stopped playing the diamond when we found we couldn't afford it anymore.

    Just wondering where this new found belief came from

    I would just counter that and say that if you play most of your football in your own half you are much more likely to let goals in. Also goals scored is a massive problem, because usually when we get one and are on top we don't get the killer second goal. This is then resulting in this losing...

    Its all down to tactics. Thorn out

    Most do for sure. We've had a few this seaosn that have left one up though and Reading I think it was, left two up at times.

    Its all down to tactics. Thorn out

    The corner thing does my head in. Not just Thorn though unfortunately. A succession of City managers have done exactly the same thing, though many teams who come to the Ricoh leave one player up.

    20 out of the 24 teams in the Championship have all scored more goals than us, so I would say goals scored is just a big of a problem too. And Leeds in 9th place have let in more goals than us. Same case for both can be made me thinks.

    Who goes on their own ?

    Used to be a group of us. Now just me on my todd. Makes it even more depressing.

    Odds on. We won't then be compalining about no away wins, it will be no home wins too.

    Why I think Thorn should go

    As I say, I think it has now gone past the is he / isn't he good enough. We need change to stop the rot and change the mentality.

    If/when we get to about 10-12 points adrift

    What I don't get is why people still think we will survive! Sounds a crazy notion. Only need to look at the facts. 1. Only team in England who has failed to win away. 2. 21 points lost from winning positions. 3. 7 points adrift at the bottom of the table. 4. Just 5 wins in 29 games...

    Why I think Thorn should go

    Well that's a good shout. Lee Carsley with the likes of Bobby Gould in there to help.

    Just wondering where this new found belief came from

    Well I guess it was the 3 home wins on the bounce. but with that we failed to see the bigger picture of 10 games and just 3 wins, yet 7 defeats.

    Why I think Thorn should go

    We care. Think that's the whole point.

    Only under the scenario of a takeover. No takeover, then you need to look to the Bradford City's and Plymouth's I'm afraid.

    Something for the Thorn out brigade to think about

    Well, I understand that. I had us down to struggle this season for sure. What I didn't have down though was us being rock bottom and 7 points adrift. As I said on another thread, did Leeds sack Grayson because he was crap or because they needed to try something different because they felt...

    Yes, look to the future. You do know the future is almost certainly going to be even more bleak though don't you.

    Why I think Thorn should go

    People are blaming Thorn for yesterday. Didn't quite see that myself. Would like to know what they feel he did wrong exactly.

    Sacking Andy Thorn, Pointless

    If I believed relegation was inevitable i would agree with you, but it's not quite yet. There is still a glimmer of a chance. While we still have that small morsel of a chance I think we need to bring a new man in to see if that can change the mindset of the squad and bring new belief. Once...
