Would we have taken this position and the general way the season has unfolded, at the start?

I think yes.

We had a very tough start and kept heads above water. Then pulled away when the easier run came. We are now entering another tough month and need to keep afloat, before shit gets real towards the end.

Team tipped by everyone to be in relegation battle in relegation battle SHOCK. Jesus fucking Christ. I’d rather be 5 clear than bottom of the league. Arseholes like saddlebrains are literally gloating and proclaiming we are already done for, arseholes

I gave you a like for the first two sentences.
I'm not commenting on the third, I'm trying to stay out of any controversy for the time being!

It’s the ‘I told you so’ threads I can’t fucking stand. It’s like they think that they have some profound knowledge of the game.

yeah, predicting a newly promoted team with one of the lowest budgets and and ever growing injury list could drop into the bottom 3 after a run of fixtures against the promotion chasing clubs is hardly visionary.

Precisely. I understand critiquing performances during games, we all do it. It’s the complete hyperbole when we fail to beat a team with a much larger budget full of players with championship experience that annoys me. It pissed me off losing against Forest but we will lose a lot more than we will win in this league. If you take into account that the spine of our team are missing plus our best right wing back then what do people really expect

Not just the spine either. All goal scorers. And all flair like Jones, Jobello, Kasta, Hilßner, or even Bapaga aren’t available for various reasons either physical, mental, or chronological.

We’ve done really well so far and aren’t getting battered very often. This season is all about survival until reinforcements arrive both on the pitch and in the stands next summer.

If we do end up going down I’ll be disappointed like everyone else, especially when we have got ourselves into a decent position. But the reality is we were likely to be fighting a relegation battle so I don’t know why threads like this exist as it’s gloating about something everyone predicted

Arsehole, yep. Good insult. Clean, concise straight to the point. Just a shame it's took you 11 years to comment on the post.

Anyway. We've all agreed to swerve this thread untill end of March

I haven’t agreed to anything! This thread is utter nonsense produced by a negative tit with nothing positive to contribute. Adios

So anyway, feel free to lay into me, i can take it like a man

I was in the exact same mindframe as you Saddlebrains. We've outperformed my expectations, without being spectacular.

These are the games that make me anxious. Can take a tight loss against a top team away from home like tonight but when we should look for 3 points I get more frustrated at us if we're too defensive.

Blackburn will have lost 5 in a row if they lose tonight, really hope they don’t get rid of Mowbray before the weekend.

Lost 5 in a row, manager on the brink but then ex-manager curse ex-player curse and you're playing Cov. They'll beat us if he stays.
