I’m the least ITK of all time, so when I say I wouldn’t be surprised to see Allen, Bidwell and Brau go out on Monday it’s just me guessing, we need to create some space in the squad

Frankly I’m flabbergasted that you can’t see it when it’s happening in front of our eyes.

You are saying that ALL LIKELIHOOD of promotion is gone for the team who are top as we go into February

Flabbergasted indeed

The comment from weeman about being top. We have thrown away a ridiculous lead and made a right meal of it. Its that sort of apathy amongst our fanbase thats awful

See above.

It's pathetic to say all likelihood of promotion is gone

Ok so to confirm you are going on record as saying all likelihood of promotion is gone?

You said (paraphrasing): 'the chance of automatic promotion is gone.

I said: 'we're still top'.


Only one of those is factually correct.

Likelihood is different. But don't be so dramatic. It's not gone.

I try and stay positive but even I’m starting to struggle, teams have not only worked out how to stop us scoring loads they’ve worked out how to beat us, and it’s a really easy fix, I don’t get it, 3 5 2, we’d be brilliant at it, just change from that back 4 it doesn’t work,

Apathy?

Ive Just called out someone saying our Auto chances are gone. They're not FFS. Literally they're not. It's factually correct that we're still top.

Look...are we fucking this up. Yes. Do we still have a chance of going up in the Autos. Yes...we're top.

Today was dreadful. Things need to change....everyone can see that.

There's no apathy FFS. Just calling out statements that are factually incorrect.

What evidence have you seen over the last month that this dip in form is temporary ? It's been going on too long now .

We have signed players..Wolf, KH..but Frank plays the same ones, even if they are totally knackered and have flu. Even Bidwell and Allen. It is bizarre. Wolf has played quite a lot , at right back, at times, from what I have read.

I'd say its much more likely for Hull, Ipswich, Boro and Wrexham through the playoffs TBH

Yup this.

Anyone who hasn't given up on promotion is classed as naive or a cope artist. It's crazy.

Everyone agrees we have great home form so it's dumb for even the biggest bedwetters to decide promotions gone already

I doubt it they are under a transfer embargo so they can't spend . It's all history now. DK is starting to remind me of Arthur Daly.

No it literally was a line from the ITK that they wanted more than we would spend.

The Boro game is massive.

We've only been beaten by Ipswich, Burnley and Leeds at home in the last two seasons.

That's why Ive just said on the match thread, we could do with 1 or 2 faces through before 6pm Monday to shake things up a bit.

Agreed. That could change the course of the season. Unfortunately I dont think we will sign anyone

Yes

I'm not saying it's guaranteed

But there is a chance we our 3pts clear this time next week and may widen gap to 3rd too

The chance is still there.

We've had the whole of January and now are relying on getting the required reinforcements in 2 days. It's not cause for optimism.

Once again that's not really true re: extremely unlikely

If we fail to beat Oxford then I'll panic myself don't you worry. Till then I'm still confident we can get going again
